I've got Waddle in both of my FF teams. Brutal. Schefter floated a few names who "he thinks" should be trade candidates for Miami. Zach Wilson was one of them. Feels a bad fit if they are after a replica of Tua, but I mean, he's better than who they have there right now.

MIA beat reporters saying they aren't going to trade for anyone.   My guess is that they're going to see if they can get Snoop Huntley ready to play.  Ryan Tannehill is also lurking as a FA.  It sure as **** isn't going to be Skylar Thompson for much longer lol.

Yeah, I’ve already given up on fantasy football this year. Had the #2 pick in an 8 man league. First two picks? CMac and Puka. Took LaPorta in the 4th. Thought I was slick by taking a no QB until late approach because I was targeting Love for a breakout season. 

maybe I’ll be a come from behind to win the ‘ship success story when they all come back healthy? Probably not lol

Right there with ya. CMC and Kupp for me. Also the first year I have ever taken a TE relatively early and Laporta has been underwhelming .

I went TE early too and got both Kelce and LaPorta... haha. Luckily I'm still 2-1 going against a team with AJ Brown, Davante Adams and DeVonta Smith. Seems like all the top guys are either injured or underperforming like crazy.

It's not Tua, but Snoop Huntley at least is a functional backup QB.   There's hope for Waddle/Tyreek owners with him, at least.   Tim Boyle & Skylar Thompson.....lol not so much.

well when you have a dominant oline and run game it sets up everything else.

Our OL played really well. Also, NY played us pretty straight up. Bo's performance last week helped a lot. That's the first game this year where teams haven't stacked the box on a consistent basis and voila, instant run game.

Bo needs to keep taking deeper shots if we want to have a run game. 3 YPA won't scare anybody.

Tim Patrick probably would’ve been our 3rd best offensive weapon had we not cut him. He’s no better than #6 for Detroit. Jared Goff is fine, but he’s in a pretty great situation there. 

Goff just put up one of the best, if not the best stat lines I've ever seen. 18 of 18, 292 yds, 16.2 YPA, 2 TD's and 3 sacks. His rating was 155.8 with a QBR of 95.1. He even caught a TD pass for good measure.

I know stats don't tell the full story but those are dandies.

Okay, I know this is premature but I can't help it.

We are currently tied for the WC with 5 other teams and have the tiebreaker over 1 of them (NYJ) .We're also 1 of two of the teams with a positive point differential and have arguably the best D and ST's of the bunch.

Sorry, I just couldn't help it.

We’re a .500 team with arguably the toughest schedule in the NFL so far (only the Falcons have a higher SOS, but they’ve played 3/4 at home, compared to our 1/4). Plus, we have what should be some reliable improvement baked into having a rookie QB at the helm. The odds of our offensive staff not making Bo a better quarterback by week 15 than he was in week 1 are quite small, in my opinion. I’m very very intrigued going forward.

Don't worry UK. I am right there with you. Here's how my big money league draft went. I had the 9th pick in 12 man league:

  1. R1 - AJ Brown (hurt)
  2. R2 - Puka Nacua (hurt)
  3. R3 - Brandon Aiyuk (trash)
  4. R4 - Sam Laporta (underwhelming)
  5. R5 - Tank Dell (hurt)

I also drafted Jordan Love (was hurt), Raheem Mostert (hurt), Christian Watson (hurt). Just an absolute wild situation. I am 2-2 by sheer matchup luck and being carried by the likes of Zach Moss/Aaron Jones at RB, and Darrell Mooney at WR.
