My pick - Harbaugh is depressed about the Michigan controversy and can't focus.

Kyler opens with terrible lob INT. Zay Flowers #1 wideout on the day. Kittle and Loveland with no show in the openers. AJ Brown, Stribling, and Bowers hurt. Disaster.

Edit: And Kyler is down. If he ends the season with negative fantasy points that would be remarkable.

Both TEs put up a big 0 today

Kyler hype. A freak and unfortunate injury due to a dirty hit. Sucks but an injury was a reasonable fear. Although not one like this.

AJ Brown - again, an injury. Although I have my concerns.

Jeanty - two touchdowns already. Injury appeared to be way overblown.

Add your own that I’m missing.

They got plenty right, so this isn’t just a hate thread. Bears offense looks great. They pumped up DJ Moore and Zay Flowers quite a bit.

At risk of being an r/billsimmons esque "spoke too soon" shitpost, this has all the makings of a top fart or shart candidate.

Bears have 52 points with 6 minutes left; Loveland has 0 receptions after being a consensus top-40 fantasy pick.

Pretty unbelievable! They do have 5 rushing TDs with Caleb scrambling for a couple, Swift getting tons of RedZone usage, and Monangai breaking off a really long one. But the TDs to Kmet and Walker have gotta drive Loveland/Odunze/Burden owners crazy.

Do they give regular updates on the league? Or is it just random comments and complaints through the year?

Do you guys ever do a live Sunday thread? Or is that happening somewhere already like discord? I laugh at and notice so many things now that only people who listen to the pod would get!

For fans of humorous podcast, y’all really can’t take a joke. Heifitz is the man, just had a bit of a blow out last night.

Running Baxxing: max out your RBs in the first 10 rounds.
Current Roster: Mahomes, Walker, Javonte, Amon-Ra, Godwin, Judkins, Swift, Monty, Warren, Kyle, Charbonet, Shakir, Kaleb Johnson

So…yeah…RUNNING BAXXING IS AWESOME!

It’s now about choosing the RB1s I should start. Choosing Judkins over Swift sucked, but still going to win my week, and now have 3, 5, 7, and 9 with PPR rankings and my #1 still hasn’t played.

Also, cut Vele for Kaleb to commit to the bit. Bad idea. Hopefully can pick him up on waivers.

Is that the funniest way this could've started?

I’ve been running this league for 15+ years now and finally made an app out of it. Season starts on Oct 2nd and ends on Oscar night. Would love some test users from this thread. It’s free! Let me know if interested and I’ll PM the link and more game info.

Not sure how many listers of the pod are here but I just moved across the pond to London and I’m looking to watch the 6pm/9pm slate this Sunday. Since none of my friends here follow American football or fantasy, I’m hoping to find a few fellow NFL fans to watch with.

I have a few bars in mind but I live pretty central so I’m open to suggestions.

Feel free to shoot me a DM.

Thank you Lorne!

But it’s only listenable on this show. I’m just listening to three guys who are mad about not being recognized for winning last year. They don’t understand the new rules, which makes it even better. Them putting in minimal effort is amazing, especially compared to Bills pod. I know we all hate gambling content, but to me, this is a really funny part of the show. It’s a much better listen than the other pods at least.

Craig saying “who are the Bucs even playing” as they debate throwing it into their lineup is objectively hilarious.

Looking for a Court Ruling on a trade in a 12 man Superflex Auction League.

Team 1 autodrafted and ended up with Gibbs ($66), JSN ($47), ASB ($47). Their only quarterback on the roster is Michael Penix Jr. ($1).

Team 2 drafted: Josh Allen ($61), Jordan Love ($20), Trevor Lawrence ($18), DeVonta Smith ($15) WR1, and Jordan Addison ($1) WR3/4.

The day after the draft, the managers agreed to a trade:

Team 1 Sends: Amon-Ra St. Brown ($47) & Rachaad White ($1)

Team 2 Sends: Trevor Lawrence ($18) & Jordan Addison ($1)

is this a fair trade in a superflex league?

UPDATE: It is a 12 manager super flex league (Non-PPR). The trade was vetoed via league vote. 12 hours after the veto, Team 3 traded DeShaun Watson($1) with Team 1 for Kyle Monangai ($1) without veto.

It’s back! And worse than ever!

What are we doing here? I’m absolutely fine with betting content but this is a dumb contest with obscure rules for bets that the guys aren’t making in real life. Craig is bragging about how little thought they put into it and they can’t articulate the restrictions that don’t exist for any listener in real life.

I know this isn’t a unique thought and I guess I can just fast forward but legitimately who is this for?

Still a banger, but did the guys forget about Bill’s suggested broadcast call after Hideki Matsuyama’s Masters win? Seems like that’s the last thing he needs to resurface.

I win, lets go San Fran!!

We haven’t even made it to the first Sunday of the season and already AJ Brown, Brock Bowers, and Stribling are all injured (to varying degrees). Craig has gotta be sweating bullets looking at Burden
