Also, are the Steelers supposed to be contenders for anything / have they looked good so far? I don't think I've seen them at all so far. I love it. Now that I live on the east coast the 1/430 starts feel very unnatural compared to the 12/330 starts when I was in the Midwest. Particularly a 1:00 start seems to kill both my morning and my evening. | ||

Ravens and the NFL just look worse and worse. Interesting how the Ravens threw Harbaugh under the bus last week. He probably has job security now considering what he knows. | ||

Interesting how the Ravens threw Harbaugh under the bus last week. He probably has job security now considering what he knows. I am actually convinced that Goodell only has his job still because of what he knows. And not related just to Ray Rice. He probably knows something crazy like that Robert Kraft helped Aaron Hernandez dispose of a body, or that Dan Rooney keeps baby seals in his basement and clubs them to death for sport. That is the only plausible reason to keep him, because despite what Peter King, etc will tell you, Goodell has not "Made the owners tons of money", a drunk baboon could make the NFL 99.8% of what they make currently. Just look at the revenues for all our professional sports. Either we are living in the age of the 4 greatest commissioners in the history of their sports (highly unlikely), or there are just some systemic things that are lifting all boats (ala the recent increase in tuition at almost every college in America). | ||

This one is relevant. It pretty much argues that most of the growth of the NFL occurred pre-Goodell. | ||

The other thing the graph shows is that all the Goodell-era growth was accompanied by all the other pro leagues growing at the same or greater rates! But they all grew, because its all free money right now. | ||

Add Indy if you're looking for the cupcake matchup of the week. I'm gonna go with Baltimore's defense this week, they're still talented, though not as dominant as their glory days. I think they'll get a turnover or two on Hoyer and put up a decent stat line. Fantasy defenses are hard to figure out though. Also, with Mark Ingram and Ryan Mathews hurt, I have the options of Andre Ellington or Terrance West at RB2 this week. neither have great matchups. I'm thinking of going with Ellington since he'll get plenty of pass targets, but I'm not sure. | ||

On that note, I need to pick a flex player this week: Gates, Miller, Ellington, or Welker. I'm of half the mind to play Welker over Cruz in my WR slot because of how shit Cruz has been thus far... | ||

Zac Stacey, Lamar Miller. Joique Bell, Wes Welker, Michael Crabtree I'm fairly sure I'll go RB, just don't know which. | ||

Edit: those are pretty solid options for your flex spot, who are your other starters? Also are you the guy in lk the 6 or 8 team league? | ||

I'll just list my whole team because I'm pretty stoked about it: QB: Cutler RB1: Shady McCoy RB2: Giovanni Bernard WR1: Jordy Nelson WR2: Piere Garcon FLEX: (open, see above) D: Texans for week 3 K: Blaire Walsh Bench: Zac Stacey, Lamar Miller. Joique Bell, Wes Welker, Michael Crabtree, RG3, Jake Locker, Jared Cook I might sit Garcon and play Welker instead, but for some reason I think Cousins will get it done. | ||

I think I'd play Welker this week over Garçon. Furthermore, you have no reason to own three QBs. | ||

I've got no needs at this point, so I can afford to have one useless bench player. Might try a trade for Stafford, Newton or Rivers (all on the same team). And Welker is going up against Seattle (in seattle) this week, after they lost. It's going to be a bloody massacre. | ||
