I actually wanted to but in all honesty, I forgot to start him.

Regardless, I think I have my match won since im leading by 22 points currently waiting on reggie wayne to play tomorrow and the giants to finish up their game while my opponent only has 1 WR to finish up their game.

I am up by 4pts.

i hope ur players choke and ronnie brown does really well

New England all the way, BOIZ!

is there a reason why only 4 teams out of 14 make the playoffs?

This is crappppp I lost to who ever this weekk

That would be me.

Hooray I won. Now I wait for DC's week 3 predictions.

you wont be so lucky next time matthew

if I were to make it 8 teams, then it takes up the last 3 weeks of the season.

Not a very ideal playoff.

imo the best thing that could happen is the top 8 teams get to redraft every week of the actual playoffs but it would be time consuming

Great, I leave for two weeks and two of my starting wide receivers got injured after I left.

Oh yes I will.

The negative effects of having so many people in the league, but it would be better to see 8 with this many teams.

you'll wish you changed it to 8 teams once you miss the playoffs

**** i didnt sub westbrook out

another week of my starters sucking yay

Who is Lanky?

Finally a good week for me. 87 points and Brees didn't even throw a TD nor did Witten play yet.

who is xtremedante

It's ShadowDarkstar from UN

Lost both my QBs to injury. Hassleback is down for several weeks and Pennington is probably out for the season.

Accepting trade offers.

man you suck at picking QBs, besides mystic picking stafford and starting him every week

i started sanchez this week and boy did he do good.

i didnt like his TD run.
sure he made it in, but had the ball been a foot back or sanchez a second too slow, it wouldn't have crossed the plane, and would have been a careless fumble going in the other direction.

So small is the difference between a good play and a bad play.

lol @ dallas Defense getting 19 points

another wonderful performance by jake delhomme.
how many more turnovers will this guy have to get to get benched

Want Tarvaris Jackson Glad?


:fro:

glad want michael vick

@ DC

Quite a few, considering that they have no one behind him.

@ Mystic.

No thanks.

@ Bear

No thanks.

They can get someone behind him. Miami grabbed Thigpen from KC for a draft pick pretty much instantly after losing Pennington, for what looks like the season, to a dislocated throwing shoulder.

While the Panthers receivers made some mistakes and caused a few of those bad plays down the past few weeks(smith changing his route at the snap, going outside instead of running the assigned slant), I've watched a game myself and watched the highlights on him a few times in the other 2.

This guy is trying to force the ball into a lot of bad places(double coverage, triple coverage sometimes). His accuracy also is hazy, sometimes he puts the ball right on the money and makes a play. Other times, he'll throw a bad ball, either overthrowing it to the safety over the top or to the corner underneath(usually the former).

I'm not saying the Panthers should go out and bench him immediately, grabbing a new QB or using one of the mediocre backups. However, this should be a wake-up call for the coaching staff and GM of the Panthers. There's a lot of accountability on this team, a lot of positions not functioning adequately, making mistakes. The Panthers need to start cracking down on them, hard. Make it known that if these certain players will be risking being benched from starting positions, if not cut, in place of a backup, or possibly for QB, looking around the league(Philly has 4 QBs and will probably be looking to dump either Vick or Garcia, Kolb showed strong in place of McNabb). If they don't start to improve and correct these constant mistakes that they have been committing for over 3 weeks, considering the showing the saw at the end of last season.

The receivers need to work on their routes, and not run completely different ones when you're the #1 WR, ESPECIALLY on a short and quick route like the short slant Smith was assigned against Dallas. -_-.

Delhomme needs to get his accuracy in check, and stop taking bad shots down the field. Especially considering the in and out problems with the aforementioned accuracy, throwing the ball away, or even scrambling to the sideline is a better option than throwing an INT. He had a few opportunities to make plays with his feet while being flushed out of the pocket.

The o-line needs to step it up, I think Delhomme would calm down and get more relaxed, reducing the tendency to throw an INT, if he had more time in the pocket. The rushing defense also needs to step it up, they have given up an average of over 182 yards per game, granted they faced decent rushing teams with good backs, but these guys aren't on the level of AP(Dallas was even without Marion Barber) and shouldn't be getting you for nearly 200 yards rushing.

Until Carolina can fix these problems with their QB, their WRs, their offensive line, AND their rushing defense, they'll be giving the lions a run for their money for not winning a game this season, because you can't win games with this kind of performance. They have 2 easy games coming up, Skins at home and TB on the road. If they can't beat these teams, I don't see them coming close to any of the other ones on their schedule.(Pats, Jets, Saints x 2, Giants, etc.)


Stay tuned for my week 4 picks.

could you stop hijacking our thread with this

i'm about ready to trade aaron rodgers for a decent wide receiver and something else of value

time to play flacco

I'm considering trading for Rodgers.

Week 4 Picks:

TB @ WAS:
Winner:Redskins
I know, they lost to the Lions. However:

1.Keep in mind Leftwich was benched for John Johnson after being shut out by the giants this last week. First start of his career, first time he passed the ball in a regular season NFL game was against the Giants, going 4/10 for a measly 36 yards against a Redskin's pass defense that's 11th in the NFL in the run, not the best but definitely a force to be reckoned with.

2. I bet nothing fueled the Skins more for getting a W this week, than breaking the Lion's losing streak, and being 'that team' the Lions beat. Look for some improvements within the Redskins, especially with Jason Cambell. Not much makes you want to improve more than losing to a team that until then, hadn't won a game in almost 2 years.

BAL @ NE
Winner:Ravens
Yep, picking against the Pat's at home. I feel that all the Brady worshipers aside, the Raven's have a much more complete team than the Pat's, and that the Atlanta win can be misleading. If you think Fred Taylor, is going to net the same 100+ yards on this Baltimore defense, opposed to the crappy Falcon's D of last week, you're mistaken. Look for Brady to be forced to go through the air, and the Raven's to be ready for that. On the other side of the ball, this Raven's offense has been absolutely dominant, being 2nd for average points scored per game in the league. Between Ray Rice and Willis McGahee, they should be able to set up a formidable running game, allowing Flacco to air it out for big plays. It will be close but the Raven's should be able to outscore the Patriots here and fully establish themselves as the team to beat in the AFC. Brady will have a good game, but he won't be able to do it himself.

DET @ CHI
Winner:Bears
The Bears simply have a better team, plus the home field advantage doesn't help the Lions. This will be close as usual for a division rivalry game against the Lions, which the Lions seem to have a knack for, despite not being able to post a W against them for awhile. The Bears are performing fine without Urlacher so far, in fact looking at it now, I don't think Urlacher is as needed now as he was a few years back, when he was the dominant playmaker on defense.

However, if the Lion's manage to put up a 2 possession lead early, which they are honestly very good at, the Bears will be in deep trouble. The Lions have been getting better at not completely blowing games in the second half, which they have been infamous for during this losing streak. They managed to stick in there to the finish against the Redskins, these improvements, tailored with Cutler tendendcy to lose his composure when having to construct a drive to come back from behind, they will find it hard to come back if Detroit comes out on top early.


TEN @ JAC
Winner:Titans
The Jags aren't that hot of a team. They have multiple facets they need to work on. Despite being 0-3, the Titans are still a team with a lot of potential.
Unfortunately, they've not been able to come back and win the 3 games they lost, all within a touchdown to at least tie against a strong Jets team and budding rookie QB Sanchez. Look for Collins and the Titans to take out their win-less frustrations on the Jaguars. The fact this team is 0-3 is surprising enough, them going 0-4 against the Jags would be even more surprising.

OAK @ HOU
Winner:Texans
The Texans have been having a rough season so far. However, the Raiders are simply an absolutely terrible team. The occasional flashes of defense the Raiders show will not be nearly enough to keep them from getting dismantled.
JaMarcus Russell continues to get worse as the season continues, and the hapless Davis and Cable don't appear to even want to do a thing about it.
Easy win here for the Texans.

CIN @ CLE
Winner:Bengals
The Browns still can't figure out a lot of things with their team, highlighted by their complete lack of an offense and ability to put points on the board. While on the flipside, the Bengals begin to turn heads every week, recovering nicely from their week 1 unlucky loss to the Broncos and emerging as a strong and competitive team.
Bengals should have no problems here, and should put up some very good fantasy numbers this week for you Ochocinco owners.

SEA @ IND
Winner:Colts
Another easy call. Peyton Manning should be able to put plenty of points on the board while on the other side of the ball, Even if Seattle gets luck and they are miraculously able to start Hasselbeck, he won't be 100% and he'll start feeling that cracked rib in no time, affecting his game performance obviously. Seahawks are simply are outgunned in the offensive weapons department in this one. Also, the Colts defense with their amazing stamina will give the offensive weapons that they do have, a full 4 quarters of difficulty.
