Didn't count rookies, though I am conflicted as an Alex Smith fan 'cause I can't wait to see that kid play. Week, I intended to make the list of guys who are not week 1 starters (except for Grapplo and Biskit) but who you should definitely acquire as a GM in case of a short term injury. Fitzy and Keenum and McCoy are not franchise saviors, but I would feel good leaning on them for a game or two if I had to. They can complete basic concepts and functionally throw a football, which as you said is not something every starter can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace, Extat Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 C'mon, guys! This game isn't nearly as bad as it could be! If you turned it off after those first two FG drives, the action picked up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, I'm counting depth charts here and where guys would have been on their team when they got there (I.E. Brissettee has only technically been a backup to Tom Brady, Grapolo, and Scot Tolzien in his NFL career, but he is in reality Andrew Lucks backupand not the #1 starter for the Colts). Garapoloio and Brisscuit are also the 2 I think would make the best QB1s for a team. Though I think BRiskuit would benefit from continued experience on a roster before a team is hanging its hopes on him. This might be the best thing that ever happened to his NFL career. Matt Moore is better than at least 5 of those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo as a Packers fan I'm pretty offended you wouldn't include Brett Hun- I can't even try to be loyal. I just can't. He's such Flaming dumpster garbage. UGH.

sperry Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 1 hour ago, Week said: Agree with Brisket, Jimmy G, and AJ -- the rest are proven garbage other than a week or two fill in. Drew Stanton (14-19 TD/INT for career) Colt McCoy (26-23 TD/INT for career - hasn't played since 2015) Fitzmagick / Anderson = Old and bad But dude, about one half of NFL teams have a viable STARTER -- forget backups. Yep, peering into the depths of the backup QB quagmire is pretty terrifying. Garopollo is the only one who MIGHT have legitimate starter potential. With the rest, you're just hoping for competence.

Jace, Extat Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 I just had a like mental simulation of what it would be like if I went back to skool full time and became a punter, and then got drafted and became a kickoff artist. And then I was like 'Oh! I can't wait until all these funny kickers become coaches in 20 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace, Extat Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Jeep Christ! I can't believe Chucky let all that time run off. Yes, the Titans were gonna let it run to the warning anyway. But, every play takes between five and eight seconds. So by forcing the Titans to run those plays before the warning you save yourself between 15 and 24 seconds. That's literally 6 plays if you're frugal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I know this isn’t the place for fantasy talk, but this tale is worth it. We have a survivor league on this forum, and like it sounds, last place each week gets eliminated. I went into last night deeply in last place with a meager 41 points and only Succop to go. The only two people I could catch were Bronn, who had 63 points and nobody going and Mya who had 59 points and T.Y. Hilton. It looked like all hope was lost with 2 minutes left in the game and the Titans seemingly were going to kill the clock. I had 61.44 points, just behind Mya with 61.46 points. And then magic happened. Henry breaks off a 70 yard TD run and Succop gets me one more point, securing my survival. And that’s why we play fantasy football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
