Anyone else have Joey Slye, and got 5 points taken away overnight?

Yes. Missed a pat and 2 fg's.

[MURedHawk235]

brieda (on my bench) with more points on his first carry than james white all game lawl

edit: aww lord he did it again. I could have won my matchup :-(

[Proactive99]

Yes. Missed a pat and 2 fg's.

That’s only -3. Lost my matchup by .2 because of it.

I traded away Breida this week, its just too damn difficult to predict what RB is gonna get the most action in that offense. OBJ was in the same trade and looks like that was probably a good call

Started breida but had dorset put up a goose egg and gallup w 25pts on my bench smh. Woulda won easily

[pl_powr]

Survived starting Watkins over Jacobs. Was up 10 going into MNF against OBJ.

Let’s go Slayfield!!!!!

[IPoopStandingUp]

Needed robbie gould to score 6.2 or less for me to win.

He hits 4 extra points and a FG for 7 points.

but missed 3 FG for -3

i ended up beating the 4-0 team by 2.2

LOL

[ffguitarist14]

0-4 in my money leagues this week. Projected to win every game, and heavy favorite at that in 2 of them. Aaron Jones put me away for the L in one league, but of course I had him in another just to lose by 3. The fantasy Gods can be cruel, but we will bounce back.

[Iceman1800]

Depends on league scoring. Cbs has a loss of 1 for a missed pat, -2 for missed fg's of more than 40 yards, -3 for misses under 40 yards and -1 for blocked kicks which Slye had happen on his 56 yarder

[Murph0408]

needed .5 from "deebo" and got .8. hot damn. thanks for coming through in the clutch big guy.

[Iceman1800]

I was up 23.5. His Breida got 24. Fuk u Slye costing me -2 points

[Iceman1800]

What's Golden Tate's value now with Shepard out multiple weeks? Plays against NE Thursday so that's scary lol. But he's the main slot guy now.

it definitely boosts. i liked him coming into the season and one would think he'll improve his chemistry as we go with jones. using him this thursday is risky business but overall i like his outlook going forward

Cole Beasley managed a 7 catch, 75 yard game against the Patriots. Tate's first week back and he saw a good number of targets. Depending on your team and whether or not full PPR, he still could be a good play against the Patriots.

[Iceman1800]

Engram might be out Thursday with a sprained MCL. It'll be Gallman and Tate getting pummeled by the Pats D

Edit: gallman is out too

It's like teams aren't even bothering to try against the Pats anymore.

[Tyler2106]

Yup. Players are spraining MCLs and getting concussions so they don't have to play the Patriots

his only rush was a grown man ass rush if i ever saw one. my dude was mashing though defenders

needed obj to score less than 16 and he scored like 5 points :blessed:

[weightsb4dates]

naa i dont think its difficult:
breida - main guy
moster - change of pase
coleman - goal line/redzone guy

Jeff Wilson Jr. had been the goal line/redzone guy but they inactivated him yesterday when Coleman became active, indicating that Coleman is the goal line guy.

Breida is the best back in that rotation tho, and should have tons of opportunity and a relatively safe floor of about 8-10 points.

i should've mentioned i need 0.05, not .5, so if they turn his catch to a rush via alterations/adjustments i still get the W by a couple yards

[weightsb4dates]

made a swap with a buddy of mine in my home league (.5 ppr, .25 fd, 6pt pass td, rush/rec. bonus's for big games)

Give: Mark Ingram+Darren Waller
Receive: Marlon Mack+Zack Ertz

Mack and Waller on bye this week, he gets an RB with upside for this week, I get an RB for the future. I think Ertz is the best player in the trade so I was glad to get him. I also have Lamar Jackson and Marquise Brown so getting rid of Ingram helps me to diversify a bit so that i dont have minimum 3 guys on bye in one week.

You're way undervaluing Coleman. He had 16 carries to Breida's 11. If you take away the 83 yard first carry because, let's face it, that's not going to happen every game, Breida had 10-21 and Coleman had 16-97. This was Coleman's first game back from a high ankle. Breida, at best, will be a 50-50 timeshare with Coleman. They paid Coleman to come be a feature back, and one game back from a fairly serious injury, he looked like one. His role is only going to grow. With that said, with the amount the Niners run and rotate backs, their offense can support two backs with a fairly safe floor, although if you think back to Shanahan's Atlanta offense, Coleman will likely get the Freeman usage with Breida in Coleman's old workload.

This was my thoughts as well. Coleman played really well last night coming off that injury. I think his workload only increases.

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

Barkley unlikely to suit up Thursday, but all signs are pointing to a possible return the week after.

I'm hanging on for dear life with him and Adams missing...... pls come back Saquan.

Adams has a good shot at playing Monday night

What is Adams time frame for a return? I have MVS in one of my leagues and was super disappointed in his performance with Adams out

Iceman saying possibly next week, but I haven't heard anything for sure yet. I think he's pretty day to day. I do think they'll get him on the field as soon as they can, the WR corps without him is very, very weak......

[Jayarbie]

Jaylen Samuels had a knee scope and is out 4 weeks. His replacement is Benny Snell, but he's just a core special teamer and replacement level JAG as a RB. Obviously, take Samuels out of your lineup if you have him in for some reason, and you can feel a little better about Conner's floor because he's going to be a clear bell cow for a month or so (although obviously not in a super dynamic offense).

idk, i think coleman will get the coleman role (falcons) and Breida will get the Freeman role, minus potentially the goal line stuff. Breida is a better pass catcher than coleman is which makes him a nice choice on 3rd downs

Breida is pretty good out of the backfield, but so is Coleman. Coleman has had more targets & receptions in each of the last three years than Breida has had in any year and has a career YPC 3 yards higher than Breida. It just seems to me that they signed Coleman to play a bigger role than Breida, and as long as he's healthy and proving he can do it, he will. They're both good players, though, so they will both have a significant role as long as they are healthy.
