NFL Discussion


Recommended Posts

I haven`t been commenting in this topic, but I`m up to join a league if there is room. I`ve played spreads for a few years and last year was my first year with a `team`. After playing in a couple of leagues last year - I`m up for more!

 

Friendly advice -- don't ever do more than maybe 3. It's not like you can't manage 10 of them timewise, but the novelty kinda wears off. Plenty of people end up in 5+ leagues and then just get sick of it, quitting either all or all but one of them.

 

Plus, the more you do, the more you run into the situation of guys on your team in one league and playing against the same guy in another.

 

I think 2 is perfect. With 1, you run the risk of that team sucking and you have nothing else to really focus on. The second shot means that unless you have a really bad year you should at least have 1 team with a playoff opportunity in the later weeks. Won't get overstretched, though.

2 was perfect last season. I plan on keeping it at that number again.

I assume that it's been mentioned that Yahoo has already opened registration. Does that seem early as hell?

EDIT: Now I can't find it. I swear I saw it open yesterday

 

ironically, after posting about the league on here, yahoo! sent me an email about sign ups beginning.  coincidence? i think not.

i agree, jpp is an absolute beast.

my initial thought is, i think cam is way too high. him at 46 and kaep at 81. then i look at their numbers and cam had quite the season. almost 5,000 all purpose yards and doesn't have half the amount of the talent around him like kaep does. not to belittle anything that kaep did, but cam really went under the radar for me during the season.

Carolina IS cam newton though, that team would be so unbelievably bad without him right now (not that they're anygood as it stands), whereas the 49er's have a good team AND Kaepernick.  they would have made the playoffs with Smith at QB.

did you read the second part of my post, i completely agree. i didn't realize his numbers were that good until further notice. you definitely get side tracked when you look at their record. i would love to see him with talent around him.

im shocked Ben is 61. dude should be in the top 30 at least. his team went 8-8 last year, but without ben they probably wouldnt have won a game.

yeah, i was pretty surprised too. however, as a starter he went 7-6. granted, he wasn't himself the last couple games. haley has to let big ben be big ben. hopefully for them, their offense comes together, hopefully for me, it doesn't.

their is still no clear cut way the players vote. are they voting on a overall resume, this past season, next season? a combo of 'em all? i know i wouldn't want him under center though. too banged up, i think he has only played one full season and with less wr talent around him. him and haley have their hands full.

YOU HID ME?!@$!

NEVAR!!

And I'm in for $ too to get majority out of the way but don't be surprised if I ask for a couple of mailing addresses at the end of this.

Malone I think I saw him post in some thread a couple of days ago but I could be wrong.

Wonder how Cam newton is gonna do after dropping those 15 pounds. His stats since his rookie year have been tremendous. Too bad he's a panther
