Westside Madness

Players are “waived” if they have fewer than four years of experience in the NFL. Those players are placed on the waiver wire and subject to claims.

He is going to want to start. He isn't going to sign here to fight with Davis for WR4, with a possible temp role as WR3 with Brown out. I also think that could hurt Davis' development as he would move to a reserve role. However, if Brown is expected to miss significant time, then I might be a bit softer to the idea, but I don't recall hearing that...

Just occurred to me that with the news coming out of Cincinnati, there will be 3 starting QBs named Allen. And I expect NFL/ESPN to keep writing articles about one of them and simply use 'Allen' in their headlines to piss me off.

Stream ATL vs NO due to fantasy, then stream MIA vs DEN for AFCE implications. All while putting up plastic on the windows.

Not sure if he belongs with the RBs, but he is def not top 10 statistically as a QB. 25th in yds, 26th in comp %, 17th in TDs and 18th in QBR. Not bad for a QB in a run first/option play offense, but there is no rationale for inclusion in top 10 QB in the league. Even if we look at rushing, he only has 3 rushing TDs on the season.

Yeah, you lost me with that grade with those stats, especially compared to your other grades.

Get a bucket to catch all that sky...

Super glad I left Allen, Diggs and Henry in. My QB replacement would have been Matt Ryan, who put up an amazing 6.94 points...

If that were the case, it would have been easier to simply not disclose the positive test...

I hear you. I just took out Allen, Diggs and Henry...then said f-it and put them back in...

His tweet was not ambiguous or confusing. #readingcomprehension I am not fully on board with the 'they have 2 more days to game plan than we do so they have a massive advantage' train, but have fun on that ride. Biggest issue in my opinion is day by day, they don't know who to game plan for. i am sure they are focusing on TEN, but I am also sure that someone in the building has been frantically prepping KC film as well. To another poster's point, I almost hope there is another positive, so the schedule can lock down and the team and get back to normal practice/game prep as they would on any normal week.

Weird flex but ok... Is that still a thing?

It felt really weird reading this in the Start'em Sit'em column...

Get back under your bridge...

In years past I would never draft Bills payers in fantasy. Partly because of the homer comments and partly because very few were statistically good due to the teams lack of success and troubles at QB. Every once in a while I might pick up their D or their RB, but certainly not one of their WRs or QB. Its 2020. I didn't expect to be watching football. I also didn't expect to be in a fantasy league. I drafted Allen and Diggs. Being excited about the Bills winning AND fantasy football success normally don't go together, but hot damn. Unrelated but crazy; Matt Ryan has similar stats as Allen in the first two weeks. 700+ yards and 6 TDs. The Falcons are 0-2.

I wasn't looking at one year, but thanks. Mayfield, Darnold, and Rosen all experienced dysfunction/turnover at the GM and or HC/coaching staff level and I would grade their 'success' (over 2 years and YTD) as markedly below Jackson and Allen. Edited to correct "3 years"

I think D Jones and Garrett will be a good pairing.

If you think about it, of the 5 QBs taken in the first round, only two ended up in stable team management situations; Allen and Jackson. I don't think it is a coincidence that those are the two that have had the best success thus far.

I read about 50 of the 73 or so pages of their gameday thread. I love seeing the progression of emotions from hopeful arrogance to crushing depression and defeat. Sadly, reading many of the comments does ring back to several years where we were in that boat. SARs did show up toward the end of the thread saying something about how the victory means nothing, we should have beaten them by more and Allen will injured in the next week or two, etc.

I assume he is going PS. Bring him in just to reacquaint with folks prior to cut down and PS add.

Or else what? That's really the question. They have brought it onto the field and certainly during the sing song. They are going to continue to do so. Now there will be end zone messages as well. So there. Its happening. What now?

Apparently not. I don't think they were invited to the 'critical thinker' meeting either. Sounds super exclusive.

Who decided that you and your 'critical thinking' friends get to decide what their jobs are or aren't? If they should be role-models or not? Was there a meeting I missed? Was I not invited? I would like to register to be an active participant in these discussions. Celebrities; actors, sports, music or otherwise, have been role-models for years. The current environment might just not be your cup of tea. And that's fine. Culture changes and sometimes when that happens, people feel let behind or excluded. I think that the NFL and the other leagues will be ok if you and your group of 'critical thinkers' decide to boycott. #endracism

I wasn't going to call you out, but since spelling and grammar is the road you want to take, please explain 'divulge into it' from your first post. I mean it's going to say 'end racism', not 'end racists'; you aren't in any danger.

So, you make a statement stating figures from sources you don't trust, but you only acknowledge that you don't trust these sources when someone states figures that contradict what you posted. Got it. I have work to do, I have no more time for this childish game. I think my point has been made. Have a great day.
