Has it been any worse than usual with injuries? While actually being a good team is always the most important key to success, injury luck is probably #2.

Feels worse than last year at this point.

Senator Clay Davis · 10-10-2023, 01:00 PM

I suspect ones view of how bad injuries are likely correlates to their fantasy team. But maybe it's worse, it just doesn't seem abnormally bad IMO.

What a ####ing loser.

How anyone can take what Kelce said and twist it into him wanting some sort of debate invitation is beyond me.

KelVarnsen · 10-10-2023, 01:33 PM

Pat McAfee can go away too

Senator Clay Davis · 10-10-2023, 01:34 PM

Rodgers is smart though. Clearly setting up the future Aaron Rodgers Podcast, a blend of NFL analysis and Alex Jones.

Sylvanfan · 10-10-2023, 01:56 PM

The more Aaron Rogers talks and reveals who he really is, the more it starts to make sense as to why Alex Smith was taken ahead of him. If Rogers was more like Alex Smith in personality and demeanor he'd have multiple rings. But it's starting to look like his I'm the only smart guy attitude he has might have held him back.

Still a massive blunder based on the talent gap. But I can see why teams thought Smith might respond to coaching and be a better leader.

He held a grudge against McCarthy in Green Bay for being on the 49ers staff that didn't take him.

Kizer has shared stories that his first interaction with him was Rodgers asking if 9/11 was real.

Rodgers used to be one of my favorite NFL players. Then he started to reveal who he really is which is one of the more unlikeable players I can remember.

If anyone deserves to get a torn achilles it's Mr. Lyin Antivax Mofo.

Anyone else using DAZN on here? Just curious what you're paying a month, as I notice mine is $32 now, which is more than last year. Just trying to figure out if this is normal inflation stuff, or if I'm being charged extra for letting my BIL use my account. Thanks!

I just got billed a few days back. It's $20.99/month for me but I haven't subscribed for the past 3 years.

Erick Estrada · 10-12-2023, 10:17 AM

I just looked at my account and I am paying $20.99/month although I have been an account holder for years now.

Sainters7 · 10-12-2023, 10:30 AM

Yeah I've had it for years too, ok thanks, it definitely seems it's because I'm sharing it. Good to know!

So weird...I don't get why I'm paying so much more than you guys then. I've had an account since the first year DAZN had the NFL rights. Need to look into this. Thanks for the responses

Playing around with the OTC cap calculator, and I have no idea how the Saints plan to get under the cap next year. They can restructure the contracts of some guys, but all that does is kick the can down the road another year, and most of those guys are in their 30s and in the twilight of their careers.

Either that or they designate them as post-June 1st cuts/trade, which will get them cap-compliant but means they can't do anything in FA.

KelVarnsen · 10-12-2023, 06:26 PM

That was a terrible 4th down play call

Sylvanfan · 10-12-2023, 06:47 PM

Mahomes is not playing very well this season.

It's amazing how Khai Harley hasn't been scooped up by another team as a potential GM, the dude is basically rain man of the salary cap. I don't know how he manages to pull it off every year.

I also think if this season doesn't go well and they end up 7-10 or something, they'll finally pull the plug on keeping the Payton Era core together - both players and coaches - and you may see an off-season fire sale. There's a lot riding on this season for this staff.
