Calvin Johnson is one hell of a blocker.

Thank you Indy defense and Chiefs defense for finally giving me a real defensive performance in fantasy.

It just doesn't make any sense to start Reece with McFadden healthy. He has 7 touches on the year...why would you expect a huge jump in this game?

Because the Raiders love him in the passing game, especially screens.


If they love him so much then he'd have more than 7 touches in 3 games.

Yeah, that was the game I was expecting to happen either this week or next week. Bears (and their fans/reporters) have to get it out of their heads that this is the same Bears defense without Lovie and Marinelli. I can't remember the last time we scored 32 points and didn't win. Lions played well enough where you can't quite say the Bears handed them the game, but it was pretty close to that.

Stafford was off for most of the game, so I'd say your assessment is pretty solid.

I'm still trying to understand, even with how hood lynch is, why Wilson only had like 9 pass attempts in the first half. I feel like we could be much more of an offensive force if we let Wilson loose every once and awhile.

If the pick pool was one where the set up was you gave levels of confidence to each game and got greater points when you got those games right I would have probably rated this one right behind Denver and Indy. Classic Bear's road loss.

This game pissed me off so much. Never have I been this pissed at a loss in a while. We start the game with a blocked punt, and take the lead 14-0. Second half, Matt Flynn literally plays like garbage. He takes forever to find a receiver and when he can't find one, he just takes the sack. Pryor would of just ran the ball if he had no one open. It really was a boneheaded move to keep him off. Our defense made so many big plays. Two turnovers, a ton of 3 and outs, but our offense just couldn't answer back. Not to mention one of those touchdowns was a pick six. I blame this game entirely on Matt Flynn. I understand now why he was fucked over by both of his two previous teams, and he deserves to be fucked over by us too. Can't wait till Pryor returns next week to fix this QB problem against San Diego and hopefully we get a W. Besides that, it's been an alright week. Fantasy is doing good for now. But my opponent has Drew Brees who plays tomorrow; kinda worried.


Matt Flynn is Matt Flynn. It's unfair to expect him to be something else.

Miami has a good defense. I wouldn't be worried about Brees going crazy.

I wasn't very confident going in, I'm just too much of a fanboy not to pick the Bears. It was a pretty classic loss, but I've only ever been a Bears fan (who's old enough to analyze football) during the Lovie tenure. I was hoping Trestman's approach might work differently.

This was such a waste of such a good defensive and special teams performance. Bad call in the end by Dennis Allen too to go for it on 4th and short when its 24-14 with 3 minutes left. If he kicked for 3, we could of played a good defensive series and then maybe come back, but he stupidly went for it.

Miami does have a good D. It'll be a good game indeed.


Are you kidding? That's actually the right call pretty much 100% of the time on 4th and short. You need two scores and you're not going to get that close that often. If you think you have a good chance of converting you go for it.

Hey I picked the Cowboys knowing they were probably going to do the same thing.

Because it's easier to get in field goal range late in the game than it is to score a touchdown.
