Justins stepping up for me: Fields and Jefferson
Thankfully since everyone else sucked. What was I think starting Amari Cooper on the road. C'mon man. I should have known better.

I watched the 4th and OT of Vikings-Bills, damn that was a hell of a ball game and I think first time watching Jefferson play, and if he's not #1 WR..he's 1A, he's a stud.

That 4th and 18 catch. AMAZING. Yeah Odell and Pickens had some great acrobatic catches but I think this catch - when you consider the defender draped all over him and the impact the catch actually had on the game (it's essentially over if he doesn't get that and as we know they went on to win, albeit needing even more luck afterwards) - makes this the greatest athletic catch in recent NFL history to me.
Edit: 2nd greatest catch Probably have to give the edge to the Tyree helmet catch in the Super Bowl.
The Edelman catch in the Falcons SB was crazy too but not so much a case of athleticism but just incredible luck and hand-eye coordination.

Welp, Kupp has a high ankle sprain, will have surgery and go on IR. He's out a minimum 4 weeks and personally I think he's done for the year. The Rams are 3-6 and with games at NO, at KC, vs Seattle and then a short week vs Raiders, they are likely to be 4-9 at the earliest Kupp can return. It's not likely he'd even be able to return in 4 as that is the very best case scenario for this injury and even if he was, what'd be the point?
The Lions are licking their chops at this though since they get the Rams 2023 pick. Right now Detroit is looking at picks 8 and 11 and what's crazy is 8 is from the Rams. Who'd have guessed that at this stage Detroit would be better than the Rams.

I think I'll keep Kyren Williams rostered..just incase they turn him loose since all the other RB's are sucking

A lot of people are asking about Van Jefferson, Allen Robinson and even Skowroneck.
I think the Kupp injury benefits Higbee and Kyren, who looks like he is the best pass catcher of the RBs on the Rams (which isn't saying much). With a shoddy OL, figure quick throws will be Stafford's bread and butter going forward.

Yeah I'm not expecting Kupp to make a return because I think it's pointless from the Rams standpoint.
Question regarding the league: Is there a point to have division record? It seems like rankings go record and then points anyway.

Probably not. The settings have just been carried over from seasons prior, don't even know if division record means anything. I sure hope not since I'm 0-4.

Bourne Singer is in 2nd place in our division and is 0-4 in the division so it just had me wondering.

I think at 5-5 I got a good enough team if I can reel off a few wins in a row. I probably need to drop some of my 8 Running Backs, but everybody is pretty much 6-4 or 5-5.

In my main league, I am 9-1
2nd is 6-4 9th is 4-6
Insane parity.
Going to be a dogfight for the remaining playoff spots.
I am eager to see who I end up facing from the 4th seed and inevitably beats me because my 9-1 record is so incredibly fluky.

I don't know why I thought you were another team . Guess I gave you guys some locker room material for our matchup this week lol

Given we are in the same division, my guys probably just view this week as an automatic L
AJ Brown is hobbly
Kamara has sucked the last two weeks Pierce has Eno coming in to steal work Fournette on bye and he was trending downwards anyways
Amari is on the road meaning no-go Pickens has 120 receiving yards the last 4 games G Wilson is at New England
So suffice to say outside of Fields at QB and Jefferson at WR, my team is shaky as heck this week and looks way better on paper than it really is.

I picked up Elijah Mitchell to go with my other 49ers- CMC, Deebo & Aiyuk
I may drop Karen Williams and grab Hollywood back before somebody else does and have him for the playoffs

I won by 8 in my $$ league, (they put up a respectful 105 points)...and I still have McCaffrey, Deebo, Conner, & Aiyuk to play for me tonight..and left 30 points on the bench with Josh Palmer.
and ended up picking up Hollywood Brown off waivers.

Ok I'm even more confused in our fantasy league. How is War Eagle only 3rd? He's tied for the best record and has scored the most points.

He may have lost head to head with Vinegar? I dont even know or look into it..I'm just trying to scrap to get even with all the rest of yaw.
Actually War beat Vinegar..so I'm clueless
I did peak and see who owned Pollard (you) and saw you were starting him..and well had no other options really. So I moved him into my starting lineup yesterday..good call.

So I moved him into my starting lineup yesterday..good call. Yeah that's the weird part. I said the same thing (maybe head to head). I'm not complaining as Im in first but I was just looking at the standings and was wondering how are they determining the rankings. Because it's like 5 teams that are 6-4 and it's no set pattern to why they are ranked the way they are. Yeah Pollard and late Washington defense pickup saved me. Plus the Vikings getting destroyed by the Cowboys hurt 2 of EE's players. I'll probably start Pollard as a flex from here on out seeing how Kupp is basically lost for my season.

Some of my teams really crapped the bed this week. In our league, I was deciding between Amari and Wilson for flex. Figured I'd go with Wilson. Amari sucks away from Cleveland and Wilson went for 6-115 last time he played NE. Whoops. That was a 28 point fail. Not that it mattered as I'd have lost anyways.
My 9-1 team in my main league. Scored 179.08 last week. Scored 82.22 this week. Woof. Had Jefferson. Had Pierce. Had Hockenson. Had Saquon. Had Foreman. HUGE L to the 2nd place team.
In my dynasty league... I lost 143-91.
That said, should win 3 leagues and still have a chance in my big $ league if Rondale Moore does well. If I can come out of this week with a 4-3 record, that's a big W.
The Fields injury is a bummer though. Luckily I had Dak on the bench in the leagues I had him since the only reason I even had Fields in the first place was as a bye week streamer for Dak. I normally hate carrying two QBs but I didnt fully trust Fields and he had his bye coming up week 14.

Spoiler alert: Rondale Moore did not do well.
He got -6 rushing yards on the first play, got hurt and was out the rest of the game.
So yeah. Negative points. Cool.

Lost in my home league because I got too "galaxy brained" and dropped Brett Maher for Graham Gano. Maher had 22 points to Gano's 0.
Idiot.

In one league I was contemplating dropping Folk for Maher because of the windy conditions in that NE/NYJ game. Opted against it because I didn't want to make a one week decision when I felt Folk was the best option ROS. Welp, that cost me my matchup. Not that I want to pin my L on the kicker though when a handful of my other players let me down.

I was thinking of dropping Bass for Gano (I had dropped Gano for Bass week 9 for Bye) but I didn't..and Bass ends up getting like 6 field goals and 21 points..so I'll keep em.
