Zooty Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 this is the week I was going to give up on Rice too...damnit edit: i think im benching him anyway. if he couldnt gain yds when the D doesnt know whats coming, hows he gonna when everyone knows they're running? same boat here. Grrr now I'm leaning towards putting him back in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 This is essentially the way to go - I'd stay away from all fantasy aspects, except the BAL RB's. Would you bench Brandon Marshall, though (non PPR)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) Would you bench Brandon Marshall, though (non PPR)? I would for better options, but these are one of those games you just have to bite the bullet and yell at your bad weather luck. It's really bad here. I would not be surprised if we see a delay either in the start or somewhere in the game. As far as Rice, if you were ever going to start him, today is the day.

A delay would be good for Marshall's chances. If that game is delayed, there are most likely gonna be some inebriated fans, LoL. I keep wanting to believe that Marshall would still get some goaline chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope your right about Rice. Starting Torrey and will yell at the weather if needed Is there a chance that its one of these games where the weather is blowing at an O's back every other quarter or is it just gonna swirl and be awful?

gilthorp Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 With what is coming in through here out West....they will be best served to protect the fans and delay this game, because once it gets there, it's going to be so nasty.

gilthorp Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 They are going to start this game and then all hell is going to break loose if this weather holds together... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 They are going to start this game and then all hell is going to break loose if this weather holds together... Which makes no sense at all...especially when they (NFL) has taken such a strong stance on player safety. It's not like they couldn't see this coming. Delay the game until later tonite or move it to Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 They are going to start this game and then all hell is going to break loose if this weather holds together... The guys on the Score think the NFL should postpone the kickoff, and I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e5volcano Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Not sure how weather affects fantasy production for WRs, but with all the hoopla, I benched Alshon for Cooper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 If the fans are already there, any delays should be minimized so they don't have to make another trip. Should have been proactive when they realized how bad it was possibly going to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Pictures being shown of the aftermath of a tornado out in LaSalle County - this is the same cell that is taking aim on downtown Chicago. Lots of destruction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And calling it precautionary by moving fans to cover is BS, precautionary would have been delaying the game...this is reactionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
