Half my league is already out because they want to "save the good teams for the end."

Just pick the sure things and let other people fall away because they're trying to plan for week 14

You say it's more about matchups, but I say that picking Miami's opponent every single week is more about one team than it is the matchup.? 1
Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 10, 2019 Report Posted September 10, 2019 How do we match up against the Giants, any pregame thoughts?

I feel this. I hope the Bills don't - in the NFL, every non-Dolphins team can beat every other team any given week. We need to be ready for Saquon. I'm excited to get to watch him, and terrified of what he could do to us. A few teams destroyed us in the run game last year. I don't think we'll overlook them though. 15 minutes ago, WildCard said: Matches my eye test, and I hope it's a sign of how things will always be - I thought he was as accurate as any NFL QB ever is in any given game.

If they can contain Barkley like they contained Bell, very well. Also hoping Eli gets the start. Expecting he will with it being their home opener, but ... The kid seems better than him at this point.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted September 11, 2019 Report Posted September 11, 2019 Who believes it? I might, he doesn't have the best reputation.... However, I know that doesn't make him guilty of something so severe. Should be a long case to sort out.

shrader Posted September 11, 2019 Report Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) He’ll never make it to the field this year. Hell, he committed a crime just a few days ago with the taped phone conversation. Now with this accusation out there, NE will walk away. It’s not worth the hassle.
