We had a guy in our league acquire Gordon about 30 hours before it was announced he was reporting. So glad he's in the same division as Giff, Sabo, Sybian, and me.

Re: NFL Week 4 - Melvin, is that you?
In this week's Scramble For The Ball column in Football Outsiders they discuss the utter ineptitude of the Dolphins this year, their pace of shittiness, and their chances to shatter different league marks for futility. For example, they are on pace to be outscored by 624 points this year. Obviously they can't keep up this pace, but we might be looking at the worst team relative to their competition ever, or at least since the expansion Bucs.
I'm trying to think in my head how far you would have to go back in time to find a champion they could beat on a neutral field (and we're talking using a time machine, not the "of course the Dolphins would beat the '62 Packers, those Packers are all dead!" joke). Because this team is really devoid of NFL talent right now. I'm thinking nobody earlier than the '92 Cowboys, even with the difference of 25+ years of athletic and schematic innovation.
If we're talking merely Super Bowl participants, they probably beat the '85 Patriots, right?

Since 2010, only three teams have not played in a first round NFL playoff game. Browns, Bucs, and Patriots. Fuck the AFC east!

I just had mine this morning. I got offerred Alshon Jeffrey, Jarvis Landry, and JJ Arecega-Whiteside for Mahomes AND Aaron Jones, in a dynasty league where both my guys are dirt-cheap to keep.Giff wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 9:44 amAfter he sent me literally the most insulting trade offer I've ever had.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 9:30 amWe had a guy in our league acquire Gordon about 30 hours before it was announced he was reporting.

OK, that's worse. When I somehow didn't bite on sending him T. Coleman for Witten, he promptly dropped him.

I'm guessing that he came to the game stag.

The definition of a dirty hit on eagles there.

Jesus. On the replay Williams’s body just crumbled like one of those immediate KOs in boxing.

Having watched some of the MNF game
and 10 minutes or so today, I can say without reservation that Washington is really bad.

It doesn't help when they declined a penalty that would have made it 4th and 7.

That was unintentional, so you can take back that acknowledgment.

I caught a replay of the Vontaze Burfict hit that got him booted from the game.
Why is he still in the NFL?

First Giants drive, 3rd and 7 at the WSH 33, pass is incomplete and offensive holding. Do you accept or decline the penalty?Rex wrote: ↑Sun Sep 29, 2019 3:54 pmdegenerasian wrote: ↑Sun Sep 29, 2019 12:47 pmIt doesn't help when they declined a penalty that would have made it 4th and 7.

I could see an argument for accepting the penalty if you are not the shitty Redskins defense.

Re: NFL Week 4 - Melvin, is that you?
I think you should accept the penalty to knock the other team out of FG range, and hope you don’t give up 10+ yards on the next play.degenerasian wrote: ↑Sun Sep 29, 2019 4:01 pmFirst Giants drive, 3rd and 7 at the WSH 33, pass is incomplete and offensive holding.
