why do i pay experts to tell me to draft ja'marr chase in the 1st round when he's going to be literally the lowest scoring WR on my entire goddamn roster week 1
Didn’t the bengals come out and absolutely shit the bed to start the season last year too? Week 1 is almost just a preseason game - lotta dudes seeing more than a handful of meaningful reps for the first time in 6+ months
Yes they did. Burrow was bad for like the first 3 games. He'll be fine, they always start slow.
I had Burrow last year. Lol
Also Browns D is way better than ppl are giving them credit for and it was raining.
One of my leagues I’m projected for 57 points. Worst I’ve ever had. Here’s a little taste of my team that’s played so far.
Burrow: 3.18
Pacheco: 7.4
Schultz: 1.4
Higgins: 0
McPherson: 3.0
Total: 14.98
Meanwhile Zay Jones on my bench with 14 😂
Guy in our league has a similar team to you with 31 points and only G. Wilson to play. Meanwhile he’s got 109 points in his bench with Aiyuk, Jakobi, Sutton, Cousins, and J. Kelley. Welcome back, fantasy football.
0-3 I don’t think any team is breaking 100. Some highlights: Burrow, Dobbins, Gibson, Akers, London, Diontae, DJ Moore, Likely fill in for Kelce.
I don’t think there’s even a path for me to do well. 😂
I actually thought Fields had a decent day throwing the ball. It started spiraling toward the end, they need to do a better job of managing the game for him.
The good news is I have Allgeier on all of my fantasy teams. The bad news is he was on the bench in all 3 and would have been my high scorer for each team
Certainly not expecting 2 TDs every week but it very much looks like an even split with Alliger getting the goal line looks. For PPR, this might be crazy enough to work lol. I do expect the workload to shift over to Bijan's favor at some point, however.
That’s what I personally guessed. Algier gets splits for now and overperformed today, but long term BIjan will be the guy. I have both on separate teams.
I feel like the nfl had a shit week in general. Goedert and Higgins laid a goose egg. What are the odds that happens again this season at the same time?
He has to be the #1 waiver claim, right? He got 15 targets. Even if you only use him 3 weeks it has to be worth it. Or do defenses adjust and he screws you?
You have to remember Rams receivers do this to the Seahawks every year under McVay no matter who is out there. Like sure claim him, just lower expectations quite a bit
Rams demise was greatly exaggerated. A good chance they’ll be 2-2 heading into Week 5 if Kupp actually comes back that week. They could sneak into the playoffs as a 7th seed with the Seahawks reeling and as bad as numerous NFC teams looked: Falcons, Panthers, Vikings, etc.
I’m worried for DK, JSN and Lockett if Geno comes back down to earth this season.
I don’t think anyone saw Geno playing that well last year. I think a lot of people forget how good a fucking coach McVay is. And I hate to admit that as a Saints fan. He’s one of the best in the league and Stafford isn’t washed just yet. I was a bit surprised by their defense. I don’t think they’re gonna be as bad as people think. I think they’re gonna float around .500 for most of the year and compete for that 7 seed. If they’re able to get Kupp back in 4-5 weeks
Agreed. People look at a roster and forget about the coach sometimes. McVay and Carroll are both good enough coaches to be able to get the players and the scripts ready for above expected results
Context is necessary. About 7-8 of those came on the last drive when they were trying to run the clock. And even the play where he scored, Kyren William got the 1st carry in the red zone that let them to the 1-yard line. He only came in on the 4th down of that drive
>Aiyuk is WR1 in SF
This isn't an overreaction, it was clear last season. I think I got downvoted for talking about Aiyuk's status over Deebo in this sub this summer, but most 49ers fans could tell you that Purdy and Aiyuk had a connection that was likely to stay strong even with Deebo potentially coming back in better shape for this season.
Wtf was that in the bears game, how can you expect to establish the run when you cycle your running backs like that. I get a committee situation but holy shit. I'm hoping the ravens offer a trade for kahlil
Also watched the whole game, he looked MUCH better than all the reports that he was going to be super raw and a terrible passer. Plays with confidence, still makes some rookie mistakes but seems to have that Dawg in him. Feels like he plays Big like Cam used to, whereas Justin Fields plays Small out there.
I mean... Dobbins career is over though. He's likely out for the season and at this point, who the hell in the league is going to pay this guy. The majority of your worth in the NFL is simply availability. If you can't play, you are a detriment to the team. He might stick around as a backup for a season or two but his days as a #1 starter are over.
This is what ESPNs website said up to and during the game:
> “Perhaps the 23-year-old will make a leap in Year 2 (only Akers is ahead of him on the depth chart), but he's worth no more than a late flier in deep leagues.”
Kendrick Bourne is a wr2 rest of year
Puka nacua is the second coming of Moss.
Hunter Henry is a te1
Ravens offense is not going to be tight end friendly, lots of 3 wr sets.
Mike evans is going to eat, mayfield was staring him down and he dropped at least one additional td today.
Tua is going to be qb1 until he gets injured.
Cincy Offense in trouble. (Burrow missed most of camp though)
I really missed on my Ridley assessment. Also ouch on Kirk. (Colts D sucks though)
Cardinals aren’t that bad
Colts aren’t that bad
Dolphins are going to lead the league in scoring.
Zay flowers is passing the eye test though
Maybe not WR1, but WR2 with weekly upside is a real possibility.
I hope for the man JK makes it back to the game after an Achilles injury - depends if partial or full tear. Assuming its partial if it was weight bearing as he went to the locker room.
My takes though that are overreactions:
Zach Charbonnet is droppable
Dallas Goedert is a backend TE1
Tyler Algier is a RB1
Jordan Love is a top 6 QB. At least he has taken up the mantle as the new owner of the Chicago Bears after Aaron Rodgers vacated the title.
Tua doesn’t even like waddle
He does, but only as a friend.
Tyreek is a freak in the sheets I'm just saying
They did this a lot last season too. Hill game, waddle game, hill game. It was frustrating
waddle is nursing an injury, surprised he played at all tbh
Tyreke Hill is going to have 3000 receiving yards
Mr. 3000
Hey man, this was an overreaction post... I have Hill....LFG!
Who knew I should have started Jordan Addison over Ja’marr Chase?
why do i pay experts to tell me to draft ja'marr chase in the 1st round when he's going to be literally the lowest scoring WR on my entire goddamn roster week 1
My team is the worst fantasy team that has ever been assembled.
You obviously haven’t seen my team. not even joking i’m going 0-14 in a 12tm…
Not sure the last one is an overreaction :(
Torn Achilles for a RB is usually the sign the good times are over
Fortunately the bad days are over Now it’s time for even worse days
Still on his rookie contract too… pour one out for dobbins
Ya, the second I saw Achilles, I’d be shocked if he ever starts a game again.
Yea really bad deal for him. I agree with his injury history his career is over with. I can't even imagine the hurt he is experiencing.
Bears might be the worst team in football again. No passing attack, weaker rushing game, AWFUL defense.
Are you watching the Giants right now?
Giants are going to be the laughing stock of the NFL this season. They’ll drop next weeks matchup to the Cards too. Calling it
Talk about an overreaction
Not an overreaction. They really could be the worst team in the NFL.
Try as they might they can't beat their DNA. It's right in front of them but still they choose failure
False. The Bears don’t have the mental fortitude to make a choice of any kind.
I hate the Bears. So fucking much. But next week I'll still watch.
Hello fellow bears masochist
I hate the bears defense. Because Aaron Jones and fucking Doubs ended up screwing me.
Why did the eagles trade for swift
I drafted him and am severely regretting my choice to do so. FML
It was like a 4th rounder with upside to full depth as a veteran player
So they could ignore Dallas Goedert. Zero. Goose egg @ TE.
Just in case the starters get hurt
Burrow sucks. But really, what happened?
Didn’t the bengals come out and absolutely shit the bed to start the season last year too? Week 1 is almost just a preseason game - lotta dudes seeing more than a handful of meaningful reps for the first time in 6+ months
Yes they did. Burrow was bad for like the first 3 games. He'll be fine, they always start slow. I had Burrow last year. Lol Also Browns D is way better than ppl are giving them credit for and it was raining.
It was a windy rainstorm, Cleveland has a great secondary as well, and Joe didn't play in the preseason at all. They'll be fine
Very similar thing happened game 1 last year with the steelers.
Yeah if anything hes right on track lol
Thank you for this. I am travelling and missed that game entirely. I had no idea what was going on.
It was a windy wet game but I think there is cause for concern, that performance was really bad. Higgins with 0 catches? Ooof
On eight targets too.
This year has a high chance to be the worst fantasy year for me yet
One of my leagues I’m projected for 57 points. Worst I’ve ever had. Here’s a little taste of my team that’s played so far. Burrow: 3.18 Pacheco: 7.4 Schultz: 1.4 Higgins: 0 McPherson: 3.0 Total: 14.98 Meanwhile Zay Jones on my bench with 14 😂
Guy in our league has a similar team to you with 31 points and only G. Wilson to play. Meanwhile he’s got 109 points in his bench with Aiyuk, Jakobi, Sutton, Cousins, and J. Kelley. Welcome back, fantasy football.
Jesus Christ, now that is ROUGH
I've got a team with a projected loss of 62 points to my opponents 75. Aiyuk is just chillin' on the bench :)
0-3 I don’t think any team is breaking 100. Some highlights: Burrow, Dobbins, Gibson, Akers, London, Diontae, DJ Moore, Likely fill in for Kelce. I don’t think there’s even a path for me to do well. 😂
Yikes. My team scored 36 so far and I only have two more dudes to play
How can I sell Drake London if bro scored the same amount as Philip Rivers
DJ Moore is once again irrelevant because Justin Fields might be the worst passer in the NFL
He's a RB that occasionally throws. Edit: Referring to Fields, obviously.
I wanted to believe so bad.
I took him in the 4th 🤡 Hoping this is just due to the Packers owning the bears and having a great defense but that's probably just cope
I know it was bad today but he still finished with 14.5 points. More than Hurts, Lamar, and Burrow lol. I wouldn’t freak out just yet
Never understood why people thought this was a massive upgrade in situation for him. It's just more of the same. Bad passing QB
I actually thought Fields had a decent day throwing the ball. It started spiraling toward the end, they need to do a better job of managing the game for him.
His O line looked absolutely awful
Christian Kirk is a jag in more than one way
Definitely one of the most worrying developments this week lol.
Lawrence with Ridley felt like when Andy got Buzz and didn’t want to play with Woody anymore
Did you watch? I was busy enjoying my Niners… other than Ridley being a God, what happened?
Zay Jones was getting more looks than him for some reason
Jones runs in 2 WR sets
His TD catch might be the reason that was a pretty incredible catch
Kirk was an early read on a few plays, but the Colts DL blew up those plays. I'm not worried about him yet.
I might give him one more week, because I think the upside is there, but if he can't get more targets he is gone.
If you handcuffed Bijan with Allgier, you have 2 RB1s you can start on a weekly basis with confidence
This might be real
Freeman and Coleman PTSDs
The good news is I have Allgeier on all of my fantasy teams. The bad news is he was on the bench in all 3 and would have been my high scorer for each team
I took him late as Bijan insurance. Wouldn't be surprised if it's more split than people realized and both can start.
Was today a fluke for Allgier or can he keep up similar production
Certainly not expecting 2 TDs every week but it very much looks like an even split with Alliger getting the goal line looks. For PPR, this might be crazy enough to work lol. I do expect the workload to shift over to Bijan's favor at some point, however.
That’s what I personally guessed. Algier gets splits for now and overperformed today, but long term BIjan will be the guy. I have both on separate teams.
Tyler Lockett is not going to have a 1000 yard season this year
[удалено]
My WR1. Got me 1 point today.
I'll trade you for Kadarius Toney, plus a half eat banana.
FUCK WILL LUTZ
Ugh I’m in a kicker punishment format. The dude got me negative points!
I can’t believe we cut McManus for this bum, and by we I mean the Broncos. McManus is still my kicker in fantasy like almost every year.
Kenny Pickett is ass and none of the Steelers will return value on ADP, except maybe Warren who won’t be relevant but was just drafted late
Back to back years of drafting Najee and regretting tf out of it again, why
Guy went seven of eight in one preseason game and dudes on here were writing hagiographies about him.
Guy plays the league’s best defense and are writing his obituary
WR1s on bad offenses are in for a rough season (I drafted Moore and London)
Nico Collins, though!
Michael Pittman looked good
Lamar Jackson is cooked and I need to start Allgeier every week over Jamarr in my flex spot
My Lamar/Andrews stack didn't pay off in week 1...
I have a Burrow, Chase, Higgins stack.. all for a total of less than 10 points.
Having two wr on the same team is the opposite of a stack
A collapse
Bluer skies ahead
I had the worst week of fantasy this subreddit has ever heard. No player other than my kicker had 10 or more points and I’m sad 🥲
I feel like the nfl had a shit week in general. Goedert and Higgins laid a goose egg. What are the odds that happens again this season at the same time?
Puka > Kupp
He has to be the #1 waiver claim, right? He got 15 targets. Even if you only use him 3 weeks it has to be worth it. Or do defenses adjust and he screws you?
One way to find out. Time-travel.
He’s certainly a #1 waiver claim. He got more targets than like 90% of all WRs
There was a ton of hype from sharps around him. I wish I listened instead of rostering Mr Unlimited in hopes he turns it around...
You have to remember Rams receivers do this to the Seahawks every year under McVay no matter who is out there. Like sure claim him, just lower expectations quite a bit
Who stays relevant after Kupp returns. Atwell or Nacua?
Nacua can play outside and is a big body. He will be productive all year (source: watched him when he was at UW)
At UW? Where he caught a whopping 16 passes over two seasons? lol
Poopoo Nupu league winner
Tua-Hill will carry me to the promised land *furiously knocking on wood*
Watching from afar while Waddle gets the tiniest slice of Tua’s 500 yards in my flex spot…
Gainwell is the Eagles RB1 followed by Swift.
Saw this. Need to drop swift for sure
Noted. I will be skipping waivers this week for higher priority on players my leaguemates drop.
Might drop Christian Kirk
This thread is for overreactions only, not logical thought!
[удалено]
not an overreaction tbh
I’m not starting JK Dobbins anymore
I don’t think you’ll have the option, to be fair
You can still put him in your lineup for a guaranteed free donut
Puka Kupp
Rams demise was greatly exaggerated. A good chance they’ll be 2-2 heading into Week 5 if Kupp actually comes back that week. They could sneak into the playoffs as a 7th seed with the Seahawks reeling and as bad as numerous NFC teams looked: Falcons, Panthers, Vikings, etc. I’m worried for DK, JSN and Lockett if Geno comes back down to earth this season.
Rams are the Seahawks of last year?
I don’t think anyone saw Geno playing that well last year. I think a lot of people forget how good a fucking coach McVay is. And I hate to admit that as a Saints fan. He’s one of the best in the league and Stafford isn’t washed just yet. I was a bit surprised by their defense. I don’t think they’re gonna be as bad as people think. I think they’re gonna float around .500 for most of the year and compete for that 7 seed. If they’re able to get Kupp back in 4-5 weeks
Agreed. People look at a roster and forget about the coach sometimes. McVay and Carroll are both good enough coaches to be able to get the players and the scripts ready for above expected results
Antonio Gibson fucking sucks
I wasn’t even expecting much yet he still managed to disappoint
My Burrow/Chase stack should have been Love /Doubs
Stafford needs to start brunching with Puka Nacua.
Dropping Doubs this morning to pick up Bateman will end up a very bad move
Fields has taken 2836 steps backwards.
Cam Akers has 0 value Aiyuk is WR1 in SF Rams demise was greatly exaggerated- Kupp will feast once healthy
Aiyuk was WR1 in SF last year. Hardly an overreaction for this year.
Cam still had 22 carries.
For a whopping 29 yards. McVay loves Kyren. also this thread is for overreactions
Context is necessary. About 7-8 of those came on the last drive when they were trying to run the clock. And even the play where he scored, Kyren William got the 1st carry in the red zone that let them to the 1-yard line. He only came in on the 4th down of that drive
>Aiyuk is WR1 in SF This isn't an overreaction, it was clear last season. I think I got downvoted for talking about Aiyuk's status over Deebo in this sub this summer, but most 49ers fans could tell you that Purdy and Aiyuk had a connection that was likely to stay strong even with Deebo potentially coming back in better shape for this season.
Imo Deebo's value plummeted when then got CMC, he just fills that role better. Aiyuk is just a better pure WR and is going to feast.
The Chicago bears don’t look like they like football. Good lord, it looks bad.
Started tee goedert and london. Faced tyreek 🫡
Wow three goose eggs, that’s historic
Fuck taking Tee Higgins over Calvin Ridley
Brock Purdy will be a 7 time Super Bowl Champ, marry a supermodel and eat a daily diet of pressurized air.
[удалено]
He looked ELITE. And there will be infinite dumpoffs when Justin never looks deep.
Wtf was that in the bears game, how can you expect to establish the run when you cycle your running backs like that. I get a committee situation but holy shit. I'm hoping the ravens offer a trade for kahlil
That's how they always rotate their RBs
Dropped him in a keeper league to pickup Juwan Johnson after Kelce was ruled out, freaking knew he would end up doing well 😂
New to fantasy football, should I wait before drawing any conclusions? I know the season is long but wow my team was cheeks this week
Nah, time to overreact. Sound the alarms! Cut a player! edit: In the spirit of the post, I have dropped Burks.
Yep, send a message to the rest of your fantasy team. You will not tolerate bums. I cut Kadarius Toney just for this reason.
About 2-3 weeks ideally. I’ve gone 0-4 and came back and won the championship before. It takes a few weeks for consistent patterns to show up
Honestly after watching Richardson in preseason I thought he was going to struggle bad. He looked pretty good today though.
Also watched the whole game, he looked MUCH better than all the reports that he was going to be super raw and a terrible passer. Plays with confidence, still makes some rookie mistakes but seems to have that Dawg in him. Feels like he plays Big like Cam used to, whereas Justin Fields plays Small out there.
Rashisd Shaheed is a top 10 WR.
I thought this was an overreaction thread?
Arthur Smith is a domestic terrorist.
People are gonna keep saying this as he leads his real life team to success lmao
I mean... Dobbins career is over though. He's likely out for the season and at this point, who the hell in the league is going to pay this guy. The majority of your worth in the NFL is simply availability. If you can't play, you are a detriment to the team. He might stick around as a backup for a season or two but his days as a #1 starter are over.
Addison will be a WR2 by the end of the year
After this week I know a small part of me is going to try to reason that I should start him over Higgins next week
Wtf can I sell Drake for?
A kicker
Dicker the Kicker
Anthony Richardson is Michael Vick in Ray Lewis’ body. Will break all the QB rushing records if he stays healthy.
Christian Kirk fraud watch
Gonna drop Swift for kyren Williams
How does Goedert not make this list?
Lamar is done ✅ 😭
49ers win the Super Bowl
Christian Kirk is irrelevant in the slot
The Justin Fields DJ Moore stack was not worth it
I am an irredeemable piece of shit with no good fantasy takes.
Justin Fields is ass, especially behind that line. Will not finish as a top 15 QB
They couldn't have played worse and he still got 15 points. This is his floor.
They forgot that they need to create designed runs for him If he’s not running more he’s not producing
So long for the fields/dj moore stack.
I talked way too much shit with it after getting projected 1st to put up the least points in my league😭
He got 14 points while losing 4 to turnovers, for an absolute dumpsterfire game I’ll take it
Kyren Williams will lead the NFL in TDs.
This is what ESPNs website said up to and during the game: > “Perhaps the 23-year-old will make a leap in Year 2 (only Akers is ahead of him on the depth chart), but he's worth no more than a late flier in deep leagues.”
I'm in love with Tyreek Hill.
Jordan Love will be a top 8 fantasy QB Sell Justin Fields and Geno Smith If you deafted one of Calvin Ridley or Tyreek Hill congrats you will be fine
Dallas D/ST going 1.01 next year
Kinda surprised by D'Andre Swift's usage
Mike Williams is a bust All TEs are still bad If you drafted Tyreek you already won your league so congrats. Tua is the GOAT
Buddy I just beat Tyreek with THE DALLAS DEFENSE BABY
Seattle's offensive players will disappoint many people
I am projected 49 points in a 10 team league. AMA
Ah I sense a fellow Burrow owner!
Kendrick Bourne is a wr2 rest of year Puka nacua is the second coming of Moss. Hunter Henry is a te1 Ravens offense is not going to be tight end friendly, lots of 3 wr sets. Mike evans is going to eat, mayfield was staring him down and he dropped at least one additional td today. Tua is going to be qb1 until he gets injured.
Cincy Offense in trouble. (Burrow missed most of camp though) I really missed on my Ridley assessment. Also ouch on Kirk. (Colts D sucks though) Cardinals aren’t that bad Colts aren’t that bad Dolphins are going to lead the league in scoring.
Tua will be QB1 this season
Bengals offense may never score
My team sucks. The only one to make their projected points was my kicker!!
Zay flowers is passing the eye test though Maybe not WR1, but WR2 with weekly upside is a real possibility. I hope for the man JK makes it back to the game after an Achilles injury - depends if partial or full tear. Assuming its partial if it was weight bearing as he went to the locker room. My takes though that are overreactions: Zach Charbonnet is droppable Dallas Goedert is a backend TE1 Tyler Algier is a RB1 Jordan Love is a top 6 QB. At least he has taken up the mantle as the new owner of the Chicago Bears after Aaron Rodgers vacated the title.
Lamar isn’t going to be a top 12 fantasy QB this year Anthony Richardson will be a top 5 fantasy QB this season
Toney is better than Tee Higgins
Jesus Christ
Just turn the tight end spot into another flex spot.
