Alex Smith = Trent Dilfer.

You can win a Super Bowl with him IF he doesn't make mistakes.

You can win with him if you have a once-in-a-generation defense like the 1985 Bears or the 2000 Ravens.

Its for funsies ok! But I still have a bad *** team.

Here are some guys

Tom Brady
Jordy Nelson
Demaryius Thomas
Darren Sproles
Jermaine Gresham
Jermichael Finley
JJ Watt
Jason Pierre Paul
Haloti Ngata
Suh
Mason Crosby
Patriots Coach
Jackie Battle
Kendall Hunter
David Wilson


Just a few guys. A lot more where that came from. Point is. My team is bad ***.

Haha it was a for reals question.

I'm serious about doing a badass fantasy football league next year btw.

You like playing with Defensive players? I kind of hate it.

Alex Smith = Trent Dilfer.

You can win a Super Bowl with him IF he doesn't make mistakes. But ask him to bring you back in a game or consistently throw the deep ball and he can't do it. Yes, he had a fantastic game against Buffalo. But he came right back with a horrible game today. He's a middle of the pack QB. And I agree with calling him a "game manager." Get the lead, have the defense playing well, and you can tell Alex just to be conservative. Continue to throw 6 yards on 3rd and 8 and hope the receiver can get the extra 2. But put some stress on him to come back and he panics and makes mistakes.

Pretty much the way I see him as a player. Smith's success is a testament to how good Harbaugh is.

No way. Playing with Defenders is bad ***. You better do it.

It seems so fluky though.

It seems so fluky though.

How so?

 

[UGLI baby]

How so?

It just seems really random who the best Defensive players are for fantasy. The best defenders dont score the most points. Seems stupid and impossible to predict who's going to do well.

IDP is the way to go. The only reasonable thing Hack has said in this entire thread.

I'm doing IDPs for the first time this year and it's nice. Just an added aspect. It's not any more random than kickers or WRs. Take really good LBs.

My problem with IDP is that the scoring doesn't reflect what's happening on the field. The best QB's score the most fantasy points. Same with WR and RB. Not so much with IDP. DeAngello Hall is the #2 rated IDP player in my league so far...

I never thought FFB was about the actual games. Maybe that's just me.

You can adjust the scoring right?

Hall is about 15th or so in my league. Im not sure why he is so high this year. He must have some picks or something. Which should be worth something.

Right now JJ Watt is the best defensive player in my league. And thats about right on in real life.

Just adjust points to favor Sacks, FF, Interceptions, and TFL's, accordingly. Those plays are huge in real life.
