**Patrick Mahomes, he's on TV more than Leave It To Beaver reruns (if ya know, ya know!)
**Foreman either gets a 20+ or nothing
**Carr is the dump-off king, Kamara is the beneficiary
**Gibbs showed up, the rest of the team stayed in Detroit!
**Addison = Money
**AJ Brown = Beast
**J. Downs = best WR out of UNC since Hakeem Nicks (remember him?)
**Doesn't the other team know Kelce is getting the ball?
**Hopkins, first kicker ever to make a 50+ yard FG in 5 consecutive weeks!
**Garrett, his athleticism should be outlawed
**Chubb, starting to pay off his huge $100M+ contract!
**Who the Heck is Hoecht? ... well, glad you asked, he is....... (check further down)
**Oluokun, 5 weeks of 10+ tackles, completely dominate
**Baker, up and down from week to week, this was one of his good ones
**Landman, out of Colorado, has been a workhorse since Anderson's injury
**Johnson, solid cover guy, 2-int's this week.... Bynum, likes to tackle plus got 2-int's
**Poyer, maybe he's back... as many points this week as the last 4 combined!
All Not-So-Hot Team Week 7
QB: D. Watson (-1.80)
RB: A. Ekeler (5.10), J. Jacobs (4.60), B. Robinson (0.30)
WR: D. Smith (6.90), C. Kupp (5.90), C. Ridley (1)
TE: C. Kmet (0)
K: R. Paterson (0)
DL: N. Bosa (5), H. Reddick (4), A. Donald (4)
LB: D. White (5), P. Werner (4), TJ Edwards (2)
CB: M. Lattimore (3)
S: D. James (8)
**Watson, a disgrace all around
**Where have you gone, Ekeler?
**Jacobs, I saw this coming
**Bijan, WTF?
**Smith, I am worried
**Kupp, just a hic-KUPP
**Ridley, did you piss Trevor off??
**Kmet, guess he wasn't invited to National TE's Day!
**Patterson, stayed in Detroit like the rest of the team
**Bosa = $1.05M per sack so far... Not Good (the math: 6.42 cap hit, 378k/week, 7 weeks played = 2.64M / 2.5 sacks = 1.05M per sack)
**Reddick, solid season just not as good as we had hoped for
**Donald, a HOFer but probably should have retired last year
**White = overrated
**Werner, fallen off the last 3 weeks, see if he can get it going in Week 8 vs IND
**What the hell happened TJ?... one bad game, let's hope for a turnaround vs LAC
**Lattimore, usually solid, a one-week anomaly
**D. James, c'mon man, you gotta be better than that!
Top Players through Week 7 (min 4 games)
QB: J. Allen (26.92)
RB: D. Achane (24.55), CMC (22.80), R. Mostert (19.57)
WR: T. Hill (22.87), K. Allen (18.83), S. Diggs (18.61)
TE: T. Kelce (16.75)
K: D. Hopkins (12.83)
DL: TJ Watt (13.17), D. Hunter (10.71), M. Garrett (10.33)
LB: F. Oluokun (14.71), Z. Franklin (14.29), T. Bernard (13.86)
CB: C. Bynum (12.29)
S: A. Winfield (11.67)
What if I told you:
CJ Stroud > T. Lawrence
J. Dobbs > J. Burrow
R. Wilson > D. Watson
D. Ridder > G. Smith
Outside Top 12
Lawrence (16), Geno (21), Dak (22), Watson (23), Burrow (26)
Expected more than 8-TD's from Sunshine... Geno has turned back into backup-Geno... Dak is Dak... Watson needs a massage... Burrow seems to always start slow and then comes on like a house of fire; let's get that fire started!!
D. Achane > J. Gibbs
K. Williams > Bijan
Z. Moss > T. Pollard
D. Swift > J. Mixon
J. McLaughlin > Ja. Williams
Outside Top 24
Mattison (25), Stevenson (27), D. Pierce (32), M. Sanders (33), N. Harris (34), Javante Williams (37), C. Akers (46), D. Cook (59)
I was right about Mattison, he was a backup for a reason.... Stevenson and Pierce are surprising to me as they are clearly the top backs in each place but 3.1 and 2.9 avg yards per rush is a sign of "change is-a-comin!"...
A.Thielen > C. Lamb
P. Nacua > J. Chase
J. Addison > J. Waddle
J. Meyers > D. Smith
J. Downs > C. Ridley
T. Dell > T. Higgins
Outside Top 36
D. London (38), A. Cooper (41), D. Smith (42), C. Ridley (44), M. Thomas (46), D. Hopkins (47), J. Jeudy (54), T. Higgins (55), J. Dotson (67), OBJ (73), S. Moore (78)
Who woulda thunk a 33yo, 4-rookies and a NE throw-away would outproduce some of the best WR's in the game?
Laporta > Kittle
J. Smith > K Pitts
Outside Top 12
K. Pitts (13), P. Freiermuth (21)
Arthur Smith obviously hates fantasy players... he gives Jonnu all the good routes and clearly instructs Ridder to overthrow Pitts on every other route! ... Pat, an injured plagued year plus a team that doesn't score much.
J. Cooper > M. Parsons
T. Hendrickson > B. Burns
S. Hubbard > N. Bosa
C. Young > K. Thibodeaux
A.Van Ginkel > A. Donald
J. Madubuke > H. Reddick
Outside Top 36
K. Thibodeaux (41), Z. Collins (52), A. Donald (53), H. Reddick (60), J. Bosa (74), D. Lawrence (75), N. Bosa (76)
Donald is still solid, just not the once dominate force he was... Reddick, one hit wonder?... Bosa brothers, you know the season has started, right??... and didn't we all think Thib's would come in and dominate? yeaaaaaaaa No!
J. Hicks > N. Bolton
B. Okereke > J. Jewell
K. White > D. White
R. Spillane > D. Greenlaw
Outside Top 36
D. Deablo (43), P. Werner (44), D. White (45), J. Jewell (47), S. Leonard (67)
Looking like Devin White is not going to be the top-end LB we thought for fantasy purposes... Shaq Leonard's time as a top LB has passed, just glad to see he is healthy and playing... BUT he is getting more playing time so let's see what happens over the 2nd half of the fantasy season.
C. Bynum > L. Snead
Corner is more of the best of the worst.... you don't want too good of a cover guy (think Revis) or else the QB will never throw his way.... in real life, that's great... in fantasy, that's a killer!
H. Smith > D. James
J. Bates > J. Pitre
K. Curl > J. Poyer
"Old Man" Smith just keeps getting it done... and Derwin, plus the rest of the Chargers defense, is not getitng anything done!
