If Cleveland goes for him, I'm kicking Jimmy Haslem right in the groin... Browns should stick with Hoyer until that hot hand cools and ride out the rest of the season and spend some time scouting a real quarterback choice (assuming Hoyer doesn't prove to be a far better asset than people are giving him credit for).

Schiano was a highly overrated coach at Rutgers. His big turnaround there was a bit of a mirage helped heavily by some of the worst OOC schedules you'll ever see. It's astounding to me that he got a pro job.

And not just because of the limited resume, but because that hard-a$$, "keep choppin' wood" stuff just won't play well with grown professionals. Fine, Coughlin has obviously had success, but then he's a smart coach where Schiano is just kind of a meathead.

The ownership must be asleep at the wheel. How do you let your HC chase off your QB (receiving nothing in return), while your HC is showing signs that he's probably not the right guy for the job anyway? This is how you set your franchise back a few years.

Well, God hates Cleveland again. After last night's terrible display of professional baseball, Brian Hoyer gets injured in the first quarter and we're graced with Brandon Weeden's gak-tastic presence again.

Hey now.. they tied it up..... Of course, having the receivers CATCH the ball helps.

A mobile quarterback with a little bit of decisiveness would help as well...

Travis Benajamin is carrying the offense tonight.

Was not expecting that win... It feels good to get the win, but it doesn't feel good knowing that Hoyer is most likely out for the season and we're stuck with Branden Weeden...

I didn't see him play in college, but uh... was he really that good?

Great NFL reporting!

I mean technically they're not too incorrect... None of the teams in the NFC north are 3-2 Though I bet that Detroit will be at the end of this weekend, and I expect the Bears won't. Either that or they'll topple the Saints making both teams 4-1

Brian Hoyer has torn his ACL and will be out for the rest of the season.


What a shame.

I know

Though Jason La Canfora has said it's a partial ACL tear and that he is going for a second opinion. Oh well, 3-16 here we come!

Brandon Weeden set numerous records for passing, and offensive performance at Oklahoma State University, many of which surpassed records set by his college coach, Mike Gundy, when Gundy was a player.[10]
Passing Yards, Season - 4,727 (2011)
Total Offense, Season - 4,625 (2011)
Completed Passes, Season - 408 (2011)
Completion Percentage, Season - 72.3 (2011)
Passing Yards, Single Game - 502 (2011, versus Kansas State)
Completions, Single Game - 47 (2011, versus Texas A&M)

Granted, he did have Justin Blackmon to throw to.....

LOL... this was during the Ram's last game:


That said: "just what the feth is going on?"

Yah I saw that .GIF last Sunday. Was cracking me up.

So kronk please lose a game in fantasy so I have a shot of catching you.

And redbeard nice pick on the raiders. I ALMOST made the same one but like an idiot I put faith in the chargers with how well they had been playing. Whoops ;p. it's going to be a NIGHTMARE catching you and Hlaine. Although depending on tonight I can close the gap to 4 games on H and 5 on you.

Rough on the Hawks...our defense needs to step up. At least we have a punching bag schedule for the next 4 games.

Well... the Rams defeated the Jaguars... like they're supposed to.

Jaguars are a really REALLY bad team, so I'm not so sure that the Rams are out of their funk.

However, with the plays of the 49ers and Cowboys recently... I feel better.

But... just what the Feth is going on with Houston? I thought they'd be a really strong team this year.

To be fair, with the exception of one or two teams this year it seems like all of the playoff contenders last year decided to crap the beds this year.

Lets hear it for the AWESOME performance of Dallas' Tony Romo...
A 140 QB rating
25-36, 506 yds, 14.1 yds per attempt, 5 TDs,
Oh... and ONE INTERCEPTION!!!!!
Bwahahahahaha..... best game of his career and that single black mark makes all the difference.

FFL: I kinda wish we didn't have the no cut list. Kaeppy is tanking. He is the lowest owned qb in our league.

I think I can adjust that for you Helgrenze. Let me see what I can do.

Edit: ok I have removed the can't cut list. I'm trusting everyone to be cool and not abuse it.

Edit 2: also if you drop someone you didn't mean to and someone else grabs them tough luck. So be VERY careful about who you cut.

Thanks for putting a stop to the cant cut list!

Yes, thanks for changing that!

Never thought I'd say bye-bye Brady.

I think your making a mistake dropping Brady. But what do I know ;p. he's getting Gronk back this week and hopefully Ridley as well. Add to that amendola has another week of real practice with Brady under his belt. And the rookies are getting better despite a bad outing against the bengals.

Although I guess it would depend who your starting over him?

But good luck ;p and my opinion is obviously biased as a patriot fan.

Edit:and it's my pleasure guys. If there's anything else that comes up like that let me know and I'll change/adjust it. Obviously I'm not gonna change roster size or scoring stuff. But getting rid of can't cut list for a league like this is no problem.

Wilson is who my other QB is.

Its been a complete crapshoot as to the consistency of my players. Brady vs Cincy being a good example. Who 've ould have thought he would score what...6 points or something like that. And Wilson vs Indy....him running for 100+...Yeah...I just feel jinxed again this year (much like the last time I played, about 5-6 years ago.)

Yah Wilson is a pretty good and consistent producer. This year has not been a great fantasy one. I heard Julio jones might be out for the year. So frustrating with so many players crapping the bed and or gettig hurt.

Welp julio jones out for the season...edit:whoops forgot link. http://mweb.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24057772/falcons-announce-wr-julio-jones-is-out-for-the-season

Sweet fantasy nightmare losing your second highest fantasy producer is not fun.

On the plus side in real football all signs are pointing toward Gronk playing this weekend against the saints. YO SOY FIESTA! Hopefully the pats can get their offense back on track. Which is the weirdest thing to say about them after the last 5 years. I am glad their defense has been so stout but we are gonna need the offense to keep gettig better and not suffer anymore defensive injuries to have a shot in the latter part of the season and playoffs.

Hope for a good game this week Chance.

Also, I've been sitting on Gronk all year in my private league so I hope he brings the pain as well!

Damn shame for this to happen to anyone
http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikings/blogs/227383981.html

As I said....

If you want some player injured, just put him in my team this year.

Thanks to the a-holes from TN for that.

Weird game in Seattle...so much weird gak.

Yeah, really. Weirdness indeed!

Definitely a bad call on Coach C's part at the end of the half...but a worse call on #42's part trying to save the play.

Just fall on the ball!

Ravens lose... again.
