Actually, that pick six WAS a bad decision by Vick. There was a defensive back behind the receiver and a linebacker sitting on the route. The tight end was totally bracketed not to mention the fact that for a short, 3-4 yard route, Vick stared down the receiver from the minute the ball was snapped. Even if the safety had not caught the tip, there wasn't much chance of that ball getting completed.
Michael Vick, DKE, HMT (Dog Killer Extreme, Human Turnover Machine).
Philly's defense is actually decent when their offense works, but when they are continually being put on short fields by stupid turnovers, they fold. KC should have put that game away early but their offense didn't really click until late. That 4th quarter drive that ate up like 8 minutes for a field goal was exactly what KC needed, a low mistake, clock-chewing drive that basically won them the game. I don't think KC will go deep into the playoffs, but they won't be an easy out.

Remember to check your line ups.

So of course I decided to not start Josh Gordon because of the Cleveland QB situation.  Edit: Cleveland seems to be in "Fuck it, we have nothing to lose" mode. |

It's only halftime, and Cleveland has set a franchise record for points in a game at 24. Who knew that giving away one of your best players and starting a Best Buy employee at QB was a recipe for success in the NFL?
Meanwhile, my condolences to any of you who thought starting Minnesota's defense was a good idea under any circumstances. Well, no, I guess I can see why you would have done it, but still.

My quandary this week is at QB. Cam is being started by 77% of leagues but Schaub is at 11%. Of course, so far it should have been the opposite and I only grabbed Schaub on a lark after the draft. Cam is at home, though, against the Giants. I think I will probably stick with him again.
Cam Newton had an absolute disaster last year against the Giants and has not shown the ability to win big games yet in his NFL career. I'd start Schaub even against the Ravens D. Jesus Christ, I sincerely apologize for this awful advice. Fuck me, how bad is this Giants team? |

I was talking to my dad after the game and he said it was literally the worst game he has ever seen the Giants play in 50+ years of watching them.  |

I played all the wrong defense's and Kaepernick shits the bed again. The second I bench the kid he's going off, I just know it. But damn, single digit points against the Indy defense?

I can't really complain since I have both LeSean McCoy and DeMarco Murray as my starting RBs. |

I got clobbered this week, against predictions. All my stars turned to turds, except Jamaal Charles. I wub you, Jamaal.
I only missed out on 0.65 points by playing Minnie instead of NE. Back to NE next week, though, and maybe I can trade Min for a QB that isn't a frightened rabbit or a greasy-fingered interception machine.

I'm going to lose even though my opponent's Nicks and Pettigrew combined for 0 points.

Romo actually has a great game. Flacco and Tannehill all have worse but not bad games. Anybody want to trade me something for either Flacco or Tannehill?

Jesus, just noticed Bradford was sacked 6 times for -6 points. Edit: I'd be willing to trade Vick + Cameron/Gronk if you want to offer up one of your studs (Marshall/LeSean) |

RB/WR like probably everyone else. :) For me, it'd be more about stockpiling good/consistent rather than any specific need. |

I'm willing to talk about a deal for Brandon Marshall, I have WR talent behind him (Roddy White has been unplayable due to injury but getting better), and I have nothing I respect at QB right now.
However, I don't think Vick would be an option, that's too many eggs in one basket with Philly, and I think he'll be dead by week 8 in that offense.

Bleh, didn't expect the Davis scratch. Not that he would have gotten great points with how Caepernick and 9ers are doing. Nicks getting nothing didn't help either. I need a favorable Monday night game or I'm going to drop 2 to Haem.

I wish I could blame my kids. I went to a hockey game and was thus fairly tipsy (but not really drunk) when I went to bed at 1am. I guess I can blame the little fuckers for the sleep deficit I was trying to make up for by sleeping that late though...

What a week.
Decision time:
Andre Johnson vs Seattle or Emannuel Sanders vs Minnesota?
DeAndre Hopkins vs Seattle or Martellus Bennet vs Detroit?
Fucking Seattle.

Hopkins definitely. Andre Johnson? Check the injury report on game day, because he got hobbled in that game against Baltimore. Sanders, though? Only if Johnson isn't playing, IMO because the Steelers are dog shit.

If Johnson is out, both Daniels and Hopkins will get basically 90% of the targets in a pretty important game for Houston. Plus Bennett is really iffy some days.
