Seeking6 Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Good luck to everyone this week! Tough lineups for sure. FYI...strong winds (gusts up to 50 mph) and storms for Colts/San Fran game....and definitely rain for Saints/Seahawks game. Plan accordingly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 I knew I was going to struggle down Wilson and Montgomery for a few weeks but this is pathetic. See you guys in week 10! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leathernecks Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 I'm so glad I drafted Chase and Pitts at 3 and 4 in my rookie dynasty draft instead of Etienne and Lance, or Williams, or whoever else. I'm definitely handcuffed at QB and RB this season, but Chase and Pitts might be #1 at their positions before long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see who the Falcons get to replace Ryan over the next couple of years. Could play a big part on Pitts ascension to #1. But, with how things are going right now, if you forced me to choose Pitts or Kelce for one game, I would lean towards Pitts until KC figures things out.

But, with how things are going right now, if you forced me to choose Pitts or Kelce for one game, I would lean towards Pitts until KC figures things out. I just saw that Chase broke (shattered) the record for most receiving yard in the first 7 games as a rookie with 754. Broke Anquan Boldin's record of 621. Pitts now has 471 after 6 games, and has an outside shot at getting pretty close to that record of Boldin's. As a TE, that's pretty crazy. He would probably break Ditka's rookie TE record of 1076 in the 14 games Ditka played. Give him 17, and he's probably going to shatter it. For 1 game, it would be close between Pitts and Kelce. Kelce is still pretty consistent, but Pitts is such a matchup nightmare. If Pitts has another game or two like he's had the last 2 weeks, I'd give him the nod. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at this point and time. the Chiefs are in disarray and Pitts seems to have figured it out. And, Pitts is a more dangerous runner after the catch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really disagree with you big picture, but KC is all over the place, and Pitts is turning into a focal point for Atlanta. For fantasy purposes, 1 game scenario, at this point in time, it's pretty close. If KC gets their magic back, Kelce for sure, but if I had both, I would have to take some time to consider who to start next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billingsley99 Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Win streak moves to 6 in a row. I picked up Wentz because 4 starters were on bye then I listened to @5fouls weather prediction and moved Wentz and got Darmold and the whole 2.2 pts he brought.

You never fail to make me genuinely lol at least once a day. Panic buying for sure at 1256 I needed a QB and TE since Waller might be out 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does not block or basically perform any TE functions. He is a big wideout. I know there are wide degrees of TE's in the league but this is not even a Kelce/Waller type TE. He can get in the way but you don't put him on the line and ask him to block or seal the edge etc like a Gronk or any typical TE. You can put an oversized WR at TE...and call him that...but sorry...not a TE in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean come on....it's one thing to have an idea that you knew it might not be a great day for your qb....it's another to get just get blindsided by a performance like Patrick's.

On Fox pre-game show yesterday, they interviewed Matt Ryan, and he talked about the Falcons having a "position-less offense." Specifically mentioned Pitts and Cordarelle Patterson as two guys that can line up in multiple places and have a positive impact on their offense. This may be the beginnings of a trend like the Warriors did in the NBA with position-less players. As more and more of these hybrid kind of guys come into the league, other teams will copycat what Atlanta is doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Atlanta has to win. 3-3 but wins over perhaps 3 of the 4 worst teams in football. They almost lost that game (a big reason is because they can't run the ball consistently). Maybe having a TE that can block and catch would help. Overall I agree with certain aspects...but I don't see TB messing with it, Rams, or heck Tenn has the best back in the league and they just line up and run him down your throat. It might be innovative...but I'm not sure it will be successful what Atlanta is doing. Probably more gimmickie than anything...or more out of necessity.

I don't like Davis and Toney. I mean I like Toney but I don't like the injury he had and reinjured. NE plays the Chargers....and that game should be interesting. The volume he gets I'd say he is a wr3....not going to replace Adams (who would) but startable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll figure something out. One of my leagues (Full Point PPR) I went Adams, Ridley, Waller, and Godwin with first 4. Adams on Covid, Ridley isn't getting targeted, and Waller on bye next week....and if AB returns it will cut into Godwin. Not good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
