the 2014/2015 nfl thread v. R U RDY 4 SUM FOOTBAW?

it seems silly to start a separate thread for fantasy discussion, right?

week 1!

i have two decisions to make:

1. start jordy nelson against the seahawks d? on my bench are maclin, wayne, smith (bal), stills and latimer. i am leaning towards starting him but maclin and wayne are both tempting.

2. pierre thomas or fred jackson. leaning towards jackson against that bears d but i'm in a ppr league so thomas is tempting...

I'd obviously go with Jackson but I'm biased. There are a few reasons I think that though.

1. Last season the Bears posted the 4th worst run defense of every team in every season of the past 10 years. They may have improved some, but you don't go 316th out of 320 one year and then turn into world beaters.

2. The Bills are going to be a run-heavy offense yet again. Even though he's now 33 I expect Freddie to still get as many carries as he has been getting in prior seasons. The reason for that is the coach has recently hinted that they plan to get Spiller touches in other ways, like kick returns.

3. EJ Manuel is still a huge question mark, and most Bills fans think he's in for a terrible season. If he falters come Sunday you can expect a really heavy reliance on the run game.

nelson is a stud and you have to start your studs. so i started him. 9 catches for 83 yards and 10.55 points. not great but just short of his projection.

i knew drafting ellington that he was a risk but my hopes were sky high. now it looks like he's not even going to play week 1 because of his foot :(

looks like this decision is made. i start jackdon and thomas and maclin or wayne at flex.

Eagles had me worried in the first half but we got it together. Chips a good coach I have faith. The rest of the division has looked like shit which helps.

PB brother: That doesn't sound like a friend?
Keni: No no no, this is him being a nice person. The best he can do. I'll do the same later.
PB brother: Doesn't seem nice?
Keni: We're not nice people.


I've missed football season so much!

Agreed. Antonio Brown is now my favorite player of all time.

Suck it, Ken. PB's brother sounds like a bitch. At least you can pull for the falcons now until December. Cuz, you know, you're literally the only falcons/saints fan that has ever walked the earth.

The fact is was the punter who got kicked in the face makes it so much better too

The only better play I've seen was last season when a punter turned to head toward a returner that broke through and was heading for a touchdown. Someone sit him so hard it broke his collarbone, jaw, and I think knocked out some teeth. Can't remember what teams were playing though.
