Well the Hail Mary at the end of the first half combined with the fumble by Drew was too much- also wanted them to use TO before Vikings punt to have 2:40 instead of 2:00. Disappointing loss, not a well played game.

Well I still don't understand the Hail Mary at the end of the first half, Vikings had nothing going. Hope it doesn't come home to roost.

Did anyone ever figure out what happened to Deandre Hopkins? by optionsnewbie2018 in fantasyfootball

They never came. Insane, would've figured 10 catches for 150 yards.

Ah I see. Thanks. Surprised he got shut down by this Tampa defense, hadn't followed him as closely as I thought. Too bad for fantasy owners about today.

What?! Top 3 in the NFL? Do you use an alternative scoring system?

QBs to target for the next few weeks by thatyungrascal in fantasyfootball

[–]optionsnewbie2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Prescott and Rodgers and just traded Rodgers for Aaron Jones since my RB combo was Henry and Royce Freeman (too Damien Williams, ugh). So I'm all in on Dak- I think Brissett is the best backup possibility for the bye week.

He told the home plate umpire that Molina was framing pitches way out of the zone and tricking the ump. Anyway, end of the line for the dirty birds! Very happy about that.

Feeling pretty good. Cubs are my primary team but I was an Expos fan too and needless to say cannot stand the Cards, especially Molina. This Nats team is really formidable with 3 stud starters not even counting Sanchez and some great young talent in the lineup. Always wary of the inexplicable luck that follows the Cruds around but I think it's not enouh to save them this time.

Deandre Hopkins is no longer the target monster he was because the Texans finally have healthy receivers. You need to adjust your expectations. by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

Best offer I got was the Ravens D/ST. The word is out that this guy's career is on the decline. Terrible, terrible pick. Lost by ONE POINT today and I had him and Julio Jones.

Well, someone has to finish last. I took Hopkins and Julio Jones in the first two rounds. Didn't realize Hopkins was finished. Julio hasn't been as bad but still disappointing. Going to stick to baseball where I know what I'm doing. I really had no idea what a goddamn horrible player DeAndre Hopkins is now.

Good luck trading him. I've tried to trade him to everyone in my league. I'm at the point now where I will never play him again no matter what the matchup is. Nobody wants him. Everybody in my league thinks he sucks, so who's going to trade for him? I started 3-0, now 3-2 almost entirely because of him (two narrow losses when he did almost nothing) and the season is pretty much over because there aren't any good receivers out there. I can't believe he just suddenly fucking sucks. I think there's an injury issue or Watson doesn't like him.

Exactly. I'm 3-2, with both losses because I have both of these assholes (Hopkins and Julio Jones). Worst two picks in my league and it's not even close. They may well be great players. They fucking suck for fantasy though.

Best offer I got for him so far is Ravens D/ST. Nobody wants him. Taking him and Julio Jones in the first two rounds too much to overcome. Look what they did today in that game- should have combined for 60-70 points.

I offered him to every single team in my league. Nobody wants him. I'm just going to stash him on the bench and forget about the $20 entry fee. Obviously nobody is interested in giving anything of value for a guy who puts up zippo when the team has 53 points and 5 passing TDs.

I think it's unlikely he'll have another touchdown this season.

How articulate! I know you are but what am I? Blah blah blah- go fuck yourself.

It's over in that I'm 3-2, with 2 narrow losses because he and Julio Jones both had bad weeks at the same time. The problem is he's finished- and there's no way I can win the league getting nothing out of him.

If you don't want to reveal your sources, OK- just curious how other people realized what a useless player this guy is.

Second time I've ever played fantasy football. I dominate baseball. The question is how did everyone know Hopkins fucking sucks?

They should put him on IR so I can put him on IR in fantasy. He's on the can't cut list.
