He feels like a different kind of coach. we're in more of a rebuild than just the roster. the training facilities... the stadium... the cultural attitude... a young coach and GM... we're trying to set ourselves up for an extended period of time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't start Stroud last weekend...it didn't hurt me all that much since I still got 28 pts out of Dak (who I picked up in FA), but I'm wary of starting Stroud even though every site tells me I should. I'm rolling right now after almost getting chopped twice earlier this season (while Saquon was injured, I barely survived), but in one waiver period managed to get Jonathan Taylor, Deebo, Kupp and Thielen. While Deebo hasn't done anything for me yet, I hope he does soon. Ultimately, I started Dak...and it worked out, although Stroud certainly had another good game. Either way, I'm set now for the stretch run with either one of them. Next week, I'm still trying to figure out what to do at RB...I only have 3 RBs and 2 of them will be on bye. But, the guy likely to get chopped after tonight has Aaron Jones, Gibbs and Montgomery, so hopefully I'll get one of them.

Ultimately, yes, I believe you could define the Chiefs as a dynasty since they have been in the AFC Championship Game every year that Mahomes been the starter at the beginning of the season (the only year they didn't was his rookie year when he was on the bench) and have been in the SB in 3 out of those 5 years. The Vikings probably do need to get that elite young QB to have the potential to have a dynasty. For all the talk that Dobbs has that potential, we can't lose sight of the fact that he's 8 months older than Mahomes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargers, @ Lions, Chiefs, @ Giants, Bucs, @ Panthers, @ Vikings, Bears. They're probably favored in the bolded games, which would put them at 6 wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cearbhall Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I would never root for the Packers to win. They can have the first overall pick. In fact, I root for that outcome every year. As long as they keep losing, it isn't a concern of mine how many times they get the first overall pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if the stumble into another franchise QB by getting the first pick that’s a long term problem. I’d be happy to see them get 6-7 wins, they need to beat Detroit for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One step at a time. After they get one, then we'll reassess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
