DingoLadd Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Long beach puts in an excellent effort but McClown couldn't keep up with Breeus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedLavie Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Had McCown spent an entire season with LB I would have considered going LB, because I really like their offense in this one. Unfortunately, it's only his first week so I gotta assume his knowledge of the offense and chemistry with receivers are going to be limited. Brees vs a zone all game is gonna hurt at some point, and LB can't keep up. 38-20 Rome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFLukic Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I think Ted hits the nail on the head with the chemistry thing. 3 different QBs in 3 weeks is an issue, it's realistically hard to keep it going. I think Rome still has another gear they can kick into this year, but they do enough here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pheltzbahr Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I think Rome gets caught off guard with how terrible they think everyone on LB is and how great everyone their players are. Down 3 scores in the second half, Brees rallies, but falls just short as time runs out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xmad Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Rome by a solid Margin, I can't expect McCown to outscore Brees when he's had a week to learn the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Second closest game after Portland/Gotham. Long Beach hit a ton of key points in their write up. They will get down the field and score points, but if there's any area a new QB like McCown could reasonably struggle in is the redzone. I think their defense could play well early but those lineup mismatches tend to have an enormous impact on voting. I'm not sure Breesus is going to dominant against a feisty defense playing with heart like LB. In the end even though Rome has the much better QB, I think LB pulls off one of the bigger upsets of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whicker Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 Very very tough game to decide. Long Beach definitely found a quarterback that can score them some wins. Rome's offense has really emerged with Brees, Gurley, and Juju. With Janoris Jenkins suspended, Rome's secondary doesn't look all that great and I think McCown can lead some scoring drives even without a ton of great chemistry. However, I think Brees will definitely pick apart the heavy zone from Long Beach. I really really want to vote Long Beach because I feel like they have a much superior gameplan, but I think the Rome offense is better equipped for a shootout and they win this one.

PR Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Brees against zone coverage is deadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlash Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I misvoted here, meant to click LB. I think McCown will do enough with those weapons against a mediocre (I don't know the PFF scores bcb so spare me) looking back 7. Brees is always going to put up numbers, but I like LB's defense a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
