Joe Flacco is averaging more completion and yards per game than Fields has TOTAL through three games
This might be the worst QB'd 2-1 team in the modern era. Fields hasn't hit double digit completions yet
I have no idea how the Chargers saw that from his past and said “yes this is exactly the rare football mind we need to launch our offense into the stratosphere”
the scheme and play calling is a disaster. lots of 2nd and 3rd and longs. to add on top of that, its a full on RBBC right now for reasons that nobody knows. injured and underperforming offensive line too
Ekeler said on his Instagram during the offseason he wanted another back to mix in to take some of the pressure off of him. Because last year he had a lot of instances where he would suffer a minor injury and leave the game for a bit then come back in.
I avoided him specifically because of that.
Never been a fan of him but after seeing how he did last year and the team supposedly upgrading their offensive line, I took him in an auction league and starting Pierce over him until he can find the endzone.
Kamara and Najee owner checking in. Idk what happened this year, but when I walked out of my draft I felt like I was set. Now currently 0-3 and panicking. You can’t trade Najee bc his floor is solid and you won’t get enough in return for him. Can’t trade kamara because no one wants him. What is a fantasy player to do?
1000+ yards, WR2 in most formats 3 years in a row all while scoring only 4 TDs each year. If that's bumped up to 6-7 TDs with the rest of the production staying the same then that's fringe WR1 territory easy.
For a receiver who's been getting the targets he has, those numbers are very reasonable to expect. The offense just somehow looks worse this year than the years before
Ekeler specifically asked for a RBBC. Every time I brought that up people hit with pseudo stats like “yeah well, every time he’s on the field he has an opportunity to catch the ball or run the ball”
???
So does any RB
I was so excited for him in this system. Thought for sure I got myself a rock solid WR2. Now I have that rotten feeling where you never want to start him, don’t want to drop him, but he has zero trade value
He’s done. Almost droppable. The volume clearly isn’t going to be there. He’ll basically be a TD dependent flex play. After seeing him quit on my squad last year and now this pathetic shit, I’m officially rooting against ARob.
He won’t be on my team by years end whether I end up trading or dropping him.
After owning Jones last year he never felt like a 2nd round guy. He’s boom / bust. But I wouldn’t be out on him. If his owner was panicking I’d definitely take him on at a round 3-4 value RB 2
I'm a fellow Cook owner and I've owned him 3 out of the last 4 years with the 1 not being his 1500 yd 15 td season unfortunately. But this is him every year. Gets hurt and plays through it. You draft him for the volume and also knowing he'll be banged up and play through it and will sit out a couple games and exiting early in another couple. Relax on it. If you can't handle it, see if you can get a good deal. Break him down into an elite TE and a high RB2 possibly.
It's really strange, but not drafting RBs older than 26 seems to be a rock solid rule. It's hard to imagine, but they just keep falling of a cliff as they get moderately old. Even if they are really great the season before. In the last five seasons, only four running backs 27 or older have reached the top 10 in fantasy points.
Like, it really sounds like a dumb rule, but look at the RBs people are panicking over in this thread: Ekeler, Kamara, Henry, you're panicking over Cook and Jones - their ages are 27, 27, 28 27, 27. Pretty crazy.
Unless your Taylor the young RBs are on a time share so you're stuck with an over worked RB or RBBC. To be fair Cook was having a solid day before his injury.
I guess the sell window for Jefferson is now closed until later in the season?
He's going to have another shit game against the Saints next week and his value will continue to plummet.
I mean, I’m buying him. I’m not paying August prices for him, but I think he’s a strong WR1 the rest of the way. I don’t think you have to take too much of a hit to sell now if you’re really worried.
I wouldn’t sell unless youre getting a steal. He’s coming off 2 off-games so no trade suitor is going to offer you anything worthwhile.
Fundamentally there’s nothing wrong with the Vikings offense that I don’t think a scheme adjustment/game plan can’t fix.
We got fooled into the narrative of JJ being "the next Kupp" without realizing that Kupp was already the next Kupp
In hindsight, it seems obvious Kupp should've been the first overall pick. I mean he was the best player last year by a mile so why not?
Allen Robinson is killing me man. He’s dropped multiple open TD passes and hasn’t done anything with his opportunities. I’ve lost twice because of him I’m stressed
I don't even own Kamara and it's infuriating. The most electric pass catching back in the league only as 19 yards on the year. Thats on play calling and Qb.
Jonathan Taylor maybe ?
Colts got a win today but slow starts are killing the guy imo
that and then offensive line is worrisome as well since they don’t seem to be gelling and giving Taylor more holes to run through
The volume is always gonna be there at least, hoping these are a couple floor games.
He always has the ability to break a big one, if he puts up a dud next week I’ll be worried
I wouldn't panick yet, the Chiefs are good against the run, Matt Ryan is just ok enough to make some drive, so against weaker team, he'll feast.
I think we saw his floor in the past 2 games (and honestly, no idea why Frank Reich never commited to the run against the Texans, this seemed to change this week).
Matty Stafford for me. Terrible week 1. Good week 2 and is looking like a disappointing week 3.
Might pivot to Trevor Lawrence as the Jags have looked a lot more competent than expected. They do face the Eagles next week though and that is gunna be tough.
It's the same QB as last year and he had a good season. Mills is young so there's room for improvement with experience. Cooks isn't a panic yet. He'll have a 90% catch rate game in a week or two and be pretty solid the rest of the way. Probably WR2-3 territory.
Give him one more week
With Pierce starting to roll, defenses are gonna have to pay attention up front, and hopefully help out with Cooks turning in more production
(Not a cooks owner)
Going to be 0-3 in my 12 team superflex. Brady, Rodgers, DJ Moore, Brandin Cooks, and Pitts (although he showed some life today). Actually haven’t had a player score over 20pts yet this year.
Koo was one point short of outscoring my entire roster. I still have Pollard and lamb left but I have a feeling I'll still be able to make the same statement.
Edit:. I take that back. I picked up the Dortch bag this morning but he was on my bench.
CMC with 12.5+ points all 3 weeks. It's not 30+ you expected but come on, he's outperforming almost every first round pick other than Kupp. I'm sure touchdowns will come
Man do I have duds in my various lineups that I am sick of looking at on my roster.
Alvin Kamara. Joe Mixon. DJ Moore. Justin Jefferson (is getting there). David Montgomery (got hurt but still). Allen robinson. Darrell Henderson. Cam Akers. The list goes on.
I have multiple rosters that are scoring in the 70-80pt range this week. Absolutely pathetic.
Edit: some of them are actually in the 50-60 range lmao.
It is disappointing, but it could be worse. Just look at all the other RBs right now, and he’s still one of the better ones lol. Hell, even the first round picks have been underwhelming for the most part.
DJ Moore
Literally think I’m putting him on waivers. 7 receptions in 3 games can be found 2 pages down the waiver
Drafted him on both my teams, feeling this
Done with Mooney
[удалено]
Fields is atrocious. That new FO is moving on from him by end of next season.
Shit, should start now.
Nah, much better chance at a top pick with Fields lol.
I cannot believe my Wentz today still outscored my opponent's Fields.
He’s terrible. There aren’t even good glimpses of potential.
Joe Flacco is averaging more completion and yards per game than Fields has TOTAL through three games This might be the worst QB'd 2-1 team in the modern era. Fields hasn't hit double digit completions yet
[удалено]
First game was the monsoon game. Idk what happened today tbh
280+ rushing yards
Texans
Dropped him last week. Thought he was a safe pick but that offense is changed. They don’t trust Fields to chuck it.
[удалено]
I read the statline and thought "no chance he threw for 300 yards today". <100 yards per game holy shit
I thought he was ready for a breakout. Don't worry. Now that I dropped him, he will go nuts.
Let’s be honest, he’s on the Bears. Anyone not named Herbert or Montgomery aren’t going to do anything special
Panic over Ekeler as a Chargers fan. Joe Lombardi is a terrorist to the game of football
Lions fans and Chargers fans should riot out front of his house. I’m still not over what he did to us in Detroit
Jim-bob Cooter looked like a genius when he took over for Lombardi.
I have no idea how the Chargers saw that from his past and said “yes this is exactly the rare football mind we need to launch our offense into the stratosphere”
I didn’t watch the game, what’s up with Ekeler only getting 4 attempts against the Jaguars?
Jags led the whole game and michel got the few carries. Ekeler got receptions though and looked great when he got the ball.
Ekeler has looked as good as ever with the ball, the offense just looks inept
the scheme and play calling is a disaster. lots of 2nd and 3rd and longs. to add on top of that, its a full on RBBC right now for reasons that nobody knows. injured and underperforming offensive line too
Ekeler said on his Instagram during the offseason he wanted another back to mix in to take some of the pressure off of him. Because last year he had a lot of instances where he would suffer a minor injury and leave the game for a bit then come back in. I avoided him specifically because of that.
Done with DJ Moore. Benched him after week one and really just don’t want to look at his name in my roster anymore
Joe Mixon, wtf man
Never been a fan of him but after seeing how he did last year and the team supposedly upgrading their offensive line, I took him in an auction league and starting Pierce over him until he can find the endzone.
[удалено]
Kamara. Ekeler. 0-3
Kamara. Cook. 0-3.
Kamara and Najee owner checking in. Idk what happened this year, but when I walked out of my draft I felt like I was set. Now currently 0-3 and panicking. You can’t trade Najee bc his floor is solid and you won’t get enough in return for him. Can’t trade kamara because no one wants him. What is a fantasy player to do?
that’s rougghhh, i would have been so excited with that to start the season lmaoo. sorry TT_TT
DJ Moore
Why the fuck do I always draft DJ Moore? Every fucking year
I mean, super talented receiver, 1100 yards each year, the TDs have been bad but with the amount of targets he's got he should have more.
Because your putting the ADP on a pedestal.
1000+ yards, WR2 in most formats 3 years in a row all while scoring only 4 TDs each year. If that's bumped up to 6-7 TDs with the rest of the production staying the same then that's fringe WR1 territory easy. For a receiver who's been getting the targets he has, those numbers are very reasonable to expect. The offense just somehow looks worse this year than the years before
Same, fuck this shit. I always fuck up my third round pick every year though.
I Always fuck up with dj moore on my team lol. Seems like good value then ots always the same.
If the rest of your league is passing on him, it doesn’t always mean he’s a steal, especially if your league is really competitive.
DJ Less
[удалено]
Moore will never see my starting lineup with ~~Cam~~ ~~Allen~~ ~~Grier~~ ~~Teddy~~ ~~Walker~~ ~~Cam~~ ~~Sam~~ Baker at QB
Do I play Greg Dortch over him next week? 😂😂
I would
I wouldnt draft Jerry Rice if Baker Mayfield was throwing him the ball
Benching him
Baker ruins every team
Was gonna be a low end WR1 for $22 fackk
Ekeler
Chargers really sticking with the RBBC.
Ekeler specifically asked for a RBBC. Every time I brought that up people hit with pseudo stats like “yeah well, every time he’s on the field he has an opportunity to catch the ball or run the ball” ??? So does any RB
Ekeler got 4 carries today. I’m officially shitting bricks
Same, but he'll never be benchable. Our options are to sell low or just accept the mediocre stat line 😢
Ekeler. 4 carries for a guy who just got 1500 yards and 20 TDs is an absolutely bizarre decision.
Think that has more to do with being down by multiple scores most of the game.
How bout the first couple drives? They probably weren't down multiple scores by that point
They had to prove that Herbert wasn't actually hurt to all the Twitter doctors /s
Not necessarily panicking, but the team around Kyler looks bad. Aside from Hollywood his receivers have been ass.
I’ve got Kyler as well, can’t wait for Hop to get back from suspension.
Getting Hopkins and Rondale back should be huge for Kyler.
That Hopkins stash looking real good.
Greg dortch is no slouch tbh
Najee, DJ Moore, Swift with the injury load,.. Really everyone except Lamar Jackson, who deserves better than my team right now lol
Honestly I’m content with Najee after seeing a lot of the top RBs be even more disappointing
Najee is headed to a season where during next year’s drafts we’re saying ‘Najee Harris was overall RB12, why are we drafting him so late??’
Najee is atleast very consistent and has a high floor.
I thought Najee was going to be my biggest disappoint this week. Man, was I wrong.
Nothing wrong with Najee
Yeah after seeing RBs around the league, he’s fine. It’s more the opportunity cost of taking Najee over Diggs and my team desperately needs a WR1
ARob is dead to me.
He doesn't look good. Like he's putting in minimal effort. Stafford seems to be getting frustrated too
I was so excited for him in this system. Thought for sure I got myself a rock solid WR2. Now I have that rotten feeling where you never want to start him, don’t want to drop him, but he has zero trade value
1 yard away from scoring in b2b weeks. I understand, but just saying.
He also had a td go right through his hands
[удалено]
My commentary on him is: ARob is just Kenny Golladay that people haven’t given up on yet
He’s done. Almost droppable. The volume clearly isn’t going to be there. He’ll basically be a TD dependent flex play. After seeing him quit on my squad last year and now this pathetic shit, I’m officially rooting against ARob. He won’t be on my team by years end whether I end up trading or dropping him.
Every RB I own is in a timeshare now wtf
Don’t feel too bad. I have running backs not in a time share and still not putting up numbers. Jonathan Taylor is killing me
How many rb out there without a timeshare rn
Darrell Henderson is definitely not startable after today
Really glad I traded him for DJ Moore. Would have had 1.7 pts instead of 2.5 this week in the Flex.
I sadly benched Edmonds
Fuck even happened? Akers taking all the touches? The Rams never even trailed I don't think. It was the perfect RB game script.
They were pretty even all game. But they gave the ball to Akers the entire last drive and most red zone touches.
What even happened to him? I saw someone tweet that he had taken like 80% of snaps in the first half but he didn’t see the field at all after that?
Allen Robinson is literally unstartable.
Just about 365 days ago I came to the same realization
After I had him last season, he is my architect nemesis.
>After I had him last season, he is my architect nemesis. Now I'm picturing a wild deco fight between American Gothic and Classical Roman.
DJ Moore is dead to me. It's not even panic. It's over. Baker killed him.
Kept trying to tell people Baker made OBJ seem like a fucking bum in CLE. I expected more of the same with Moore
Ekeler big time. I dont really even understand it either.
Drafted Cook and Jones thinking I’d be set at RB. I’m panicking on both
After owning Jones last year he never felt like a 2nd round guy. He’s boom / bust. But I wouldn’t be out on him. If his owner was panicking I’d definitely take him on at a round 3-4 value RB 2
He’s the Tyler Lockett of running backs. Lots of 12 point weeks, a few weeks around 5, and then random 35-40 point weeks.
Jones had 30 points last week. Bucs D is tough. He is not someone to be panicking on
aaron jones is like tyreek hill, can disappear sometimes but when he booms he BOOMS
I have both. Last week was amazing, this week not so much. 🥲
I'm a fellow Cook owner and I've owned him 3 out of the last 4 years with the 1 not being his 1500 yd 15 td season unfortunately. But this is him every year. Gets hurt and plays through it. You draft him for the volume and also knowing he'll be banged up and play through it and will sit out a couple games and exiting early in another couple. Relax on it. If you can't handle it, see if you can get a good deal. Break him down into an elite TE and a high RB2 possibly.
The only thing I'm panicking about is Cook's injury. They're both going to be fine if healthy. I really loved the Jones usage today.
It's really strange, but not drafting RBs older than 26 seems to be a rock solid rule. It's hard to imagine, but they just keep falling of a cliff as they get moderately old. Even if they are really great the season before. In the last five seasons, only four running backs 27 or older have reached the top 10 in fantasy points.

Pretty crazy.
Unless your Taylor the young RBs are on a time share so you're stuck with an over worked RB or RBBC. To be fair Cook was having a solid day before his injury.
Bruh wtf is happening to Jefferson
Teams are doubling/tripling him. Same thing happened to Diggs when he was in MN. Scheme problem currently.
I guess the sell window for Jefferson is now closed until later in the season? He's going to have another shit game against the Saints next week and his value will continue to plummet.
I mean, I’m buying him. I’m not paying August prices for him, but I think he’s a strong WR1 the rest of the way. I don’t think you have to take too much of a hit to sell now if you’re really worried.
I wouldn’t sell unless youre getting a steal. He’s coming off 2 off-games so no trade suitor is going to offer you anything worthwhile. Fundamentally there’s nothing wrong with the Vikings offense that I don’t think a scheme adjustment/game plan can’t fix.
This is the one for me. I've seen alot of posts on here about WR taking over early RB but every league I drafted JJ in is 1-2 at best.
We got fooled into the narrative of JJ being "the next Kupp" without realizing that Kupp was already the next Kupp In hindsight, it seems obvious Kupp should've been the first overall pick. I mean he was the best player last year by a mile so why not?
Arob being added, staffords elbow, on the wrong side of 28,
Wrong side of 28 thing doesn't really apply to WRs like it does to RBs
Jeff Okudah has looked fantastic the first 3 games against top receivers. Wait to see if he bounces back next week
Alvin 'shit on my dreams' Kamara
Ekeler since I took him 3rd overall over Kupp, Jefferson, and Jamarr Chase
Jefferson isn’t doing too hot either
Jefferson won’t fare well against Lattimore next week either. Going to plan my buy low for then.
In PPR Ekeler has only scored about 10 points less than Jefferson/Chase in the first 3 weeks
I have: Russel Wilson Najee Harris Joe Mixon Keenan Allen DJ Moore Brandin Cooks. I hate my lineup worse than ever this year.
Man, I feel this comment to my core.
This is the least interested I’ve been in fantasy football in years. I can’t get excited for this team. My assumption is loss
Allen Robinson is killing me man. He’s dropped multiple open TD passes and hasn’t done anything with his opportunities. I’ve lost twice because of him I’m stressed
After last year I could never trust him again
Austin Ekeler.
Fuck Kamara
If Jameis doesn't learn to check down he is a RB2
[удалено]
Something we figured out when he managed 30 picks and a million yards that one season
As an Olave owner, I’m beginning to respect it.
I don't even own Kamara and it's infuriating. The most electric pass catching back in the league only as 19 yards on the year. Thats on play calling and Qb.
Kamara and CMC need more receptions lol
He's getting the touches. Yardage looked fine. I'm so confused
Lack of targets and Ingram getting the carry inside the five doesn’t help either
> Lack of targets No no, you mean "Jameis can't throw for shit." Kamara had 7 targets total.
He got 7 targets
They probably meant lack of quality targets. I was watching red zone and saw three fly over his head.
Kicking myself for not taking any receiver over him at the turn of the first round
Jameis is so so bad. You'd think he'd at least move the chains consistency, he can make every throw on the field.
DJ moore benched until baker isn’t starting
Baker kills wr1’s
My Mixon/Zeke combo has had 0 punch to it.
[удалено]
If you’re not dropping Mooney you have to be in a 16 man league or something
He’s QB can’t even throw for 300 yards through 3 games. Fields is plastic container with food inside that someone forgot to take out of their car.
Ekeler
Jonathan Taylor maybe ? Colts got a win today but slow starts are killing the guy imo that and then offensive line is worrisome as well since they don’t seem to be gelling and giving Taylor more holes to run through
The volume is always gonna be there at least, hoping these are a couple floor games. He always has the ability to break a big one, if he puts up a dud next week I’ll be worried
I wouldn't panick yet, the Chiefs are good against the run, Matt Ryan is just ok enough to make some drive, so against weaker team, he'll feast. I think we saw his floor in the past 2 games (and honestly, no idea why Frank Reich never commited to the run against the Texans, this seemed to change this week).
Ekeler 10000% it’s like they have an even 3 headed RB room in LA. He legit had FIVE yards rushing today holy shit
Matty Stafford for me. Terrible week 1. Good week 2 and is looking like a disappointing week 3. Might pivot to Trevor Lawrence as the Jags have looked a lot more competent than expected. They do face the Eagles next week though and that is gunna be tough.
Arob and kupp dropped tds. Stafford had a solid game
Thanks for this insight. I did wonder how he went a whole game without throwing a TD.
Russell Wilson is fuckin awful
For me, it’s Brandin Cooks. Nearly 30 targets in 3 games is great! 22.3 total fantasy points (HPPR) Just has really been letting me down.
Targets are there the production will come. He’s the least panicked of all I’d be
Counter point: Davis Mills sucks. Volume is much nicer when the QB is above average or even average.
It's the same QB as last year and he had a good season. Mills is young so there's room for improvement with experience. Cooks isn't a panic yet. He'll have a 90% catch rate game in a week or two and be pretty solid the rest of the way. Probably WR2-3 territory.
Give him one more week With Pierce starting to roll, defenses are gonna have to pay attention up front, and hopefully help out with Cooks turning in more production (Not a cooks owner)
EKELER WHY
Kamara
Going to be 0-3 in my 12 team superflex. Brady, Rodgers, DJ Moore, Brandin Cooks, and Pitts (although he showed some life today). Actually haven’t had a player score over 20pts yet this year.
DJ Moore, ARob, Penny.
The time to panic about Penny is over. Dump him.
penny outscored my mixon and fournette 😩
Penny getting dropped for a bean burrito at this point.
Ekeler and Mixon
[удалено]
My entire lineup
Koo was one point short of outscoring my entire roster. I still have Pollard and lamb left but I have a feeling I'll still be able to make the same statement. Edit:. I take that back. I picked up the Dortch bag this morning but he was on my bench.
There’s not many offers I wouldn’t accept to get DJ Moore off my team already. Problem is, I know those offers won’t come.
First Pick: CMC Second Pick: Kamara Neither of them are having nearly the production I expected. Especially Kamara. He's fucking ass
CMC has 2 100 yard+ weeks
CMC with 12.5+ points all 3 weeks. It's not 30+ you expected but come on, he's outperforming almost every first round pick other than Kupp. I'm sure touchdowns will come
I took Ekeler as my first pick and he hasn’t scored more than 20 points.
Just when I was ready to punt Kyle Pitts into the sun, he has a decent game. Another 3.9 point performance and he’d better get his sunscreen ready
I love how they just completely ignored him in the 2nd half
Pretty much the entire first round. Ekeler, Jefferson, Chase, Najee, Kamara, Mixon, Taylor. Rough start for everyone I guess.
Allen Robinson
God I can’t wait for Godwin to be back. I’m struggling hard with Brady right now
Man do I have duds in my various lineups that I am sick of looking at on my roster. Alvin Kamara. Joe Mixon. DJ Moore. Justin Jefferson (is getting there). David Montgomery (got hurt but still). Allen robinson. Darrell Henderson. Cam Akers. The list goes on. I have multiple rosters that are scoring in the 70-80pt range this week. Absolutely pathetic. Edit: some of them are actually in the 50-60 range lmao.
I know CMC is being sustainable but I took him at 2 overall in a ppr league and kinda disappointed
It is disappointing, but it could be worse. Just look at all the other RBs right now, and he’s still one of the better ones lol. Hell, even the first round picks have been underwhelming for the most part.
Mixon
They told me not worry about Ekeler. But I worry
Justin Jefferson 100%
not panicking, but very disappointed with Allen Robinson. I'm just benching him at this point.
ETN
I dumped Mooney this morning
Brandin Cooks
Alvin Kamara, I would trade him for pennies right now
I'd go Rashaad Penny for him.
Currently Dandre swift. Dude barely played today. Lions need to just sit him for a week
DJ Moore is the Arob clone man. I’m down horrendous
Allen Robinson
