Because I like talking fantasy football.

Not trolling. Gyno has a legitimate point. You reply to everything in a condescending, douche manner and it's fricking aggravating.

Yes, he has 5 TDs in 3 games. You are proving my point. He's a volume fantasy scorer. He has 6 all season and 5 came in 3 games. What about the other games?

5 for 28 vs Jax
3 for 37 vs ARI

Yeah that's what I'm worried about. And with nelson coming back that's probably gonna mean less touches for Cobb. Miami's D is strong against the run too, so that could mean more passes to stevie.

Reasonable concern, but as I said before, Cobb put up a 8/89/2 in the game vs. St. Louis, which just happened to be Nelson's last game before the injury bug.

Also, the huge game Nelson had against Houston when he caught three TDs, Cobb had 10 targets and caught seven of them for 102 yards.

I actually think his value will go up with Nelson, since it doesn't go into his production (Cobb primarily operates out of the slot)

Where did you prove me wrong? I merely pointed out that if you continued reading Gyno's post, you'd realize that all of Cobb's points are on TDs. He is not getting anything in the yardage department. This is scary in that if the TD well dries up, he's only left with 20 or 30 yards a game. To which you replied with dickhead, retard and ignorant. A very reasonable, thought out jimithing response.

Jones leads GB with 63 targets

Cobb has 59 and Nelson 58, despite missing two games.

Granted, they can all get theirs in an given game and choosing Cobb or Johnson is probably just personal preference. They are pretty close. I'd just chose Johnson. I also like having a guy to watch on Thursday

Avery, Hilton, Wayne, Allen shredded up MIA. Clyde Gates had a good game against them. Gibson and Givens. MIA has been beaten by some scrubs. They are yielding 278 pass yards a game, good for 28th in the NFL.

Gotta start Fitz IMO. They should be playing catchup with ATL and he could be in for a big day if they can get him the ball

Yeah that's what I was thinking.

Not sure which one of these I'm gonna start yet, probably keep tinkering until game time tonight. Thanks for the insight

Good call

About what I expected besides the lucky TD catch at the end. 58 minutes without a TD then Rodgers drops one in between 2 clueless defenders. Goes to show you can't predict TDs.

Yep. And Stevie would've had a TD if he wasn't interfered with in the endzone, which would've put them about even.

Wish I would've went with the thought I had of putting Cobb in over Fitz, but I'm going to win this week anyway.

I guess Andre Johnson and his near 300 receiving yards were a mere fluke then too

yeah, it's the nature of fantasy football. hell, it's the nature of any point-based fantasy competition

it's why i've lost my taste for them

for example, i have eli, shaub, and rivers in a league. last week i started rivers. this week i started shaub. i made a somewhat educated guess in both weeks, but i didn't expect what i received by starting them. blind luck...especially this week
