Yeah people are hand-waving this but the Bears have so much more variance with Fields, which is not good for a team like Detroit that would have buried Tyson Bagent alive. I'm still on the Lions -9.5 tho.

Re: NFL 2023 Week 11

I’m struggling to understand how they lost to the Colts and Browns. For some reason they make every possible little mistake there is to make, they spend entire halves getting sacked and fumbling, and they don't convert third and fourth downs. In that Colts game I think the returner fair caught the ...

Re: NFL 2023 Week 10

Except that in basketball, the defender gives up his position when he leaves his feet. The CB has a right to his space, and if a receiver turns on a dime and creates contact with the CB, why assume it's not offensive pass interference? Because most football games I've seen recently have been tediou...

Thinking Julian Edelman is a star-type player is peak New England. Teams didn't want Hines Ward, I'm not surprised they didn't value poor man's Hines Ward as much as the Patriots did.

Unless its a 2 QB league, trading Kelce for any QB seems like a bad idea. That is correct. Plus both Burrow and Tua have terrible schedules during the fantasy playoff weeks. At least Tua won't be playing in blizzards. I have Tua and Josh Allen and I've been trying to unload Tua for significantly le...

The Chiefs play more press than any team in the NFL, year in and year out. The idea is that they block those guys and it’s a housecall. Otherwise why even call it against them?
