gilthorp Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Top point averages for QB's in my dynasty. 1. Brees 2. Brady 3. Rodgers 4. Ryan 5. Cousins 6. Kapernick I have been impressed with Kapernick's comeback this year. As an owner in dynasty, I've tried to watch as many of his games, or highlights of his games. I may be a bit biased, but what I've seen from him this year tells me he's far from done. As a fantasy option, he is putting up some big numbers, and will do so again against the Bears this weekend. If you are looking for a spark and your QB situation is horrible, you might want to gamble on him this weekend against a Chicago team that now has no experience in the middle LB's, and one of the weakest back 4 crew in the league. As the Bears defense has been stout against the run, he's likely due to have a big game, to add to his impressive fantasy season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Coming from a hard core Bears fan, I don't take this advice lightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeductiveNun Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Been starting Kaepernick 3 of the last 4 weeks in one of my leagues and loving it. No way I go back to a schlep like Eli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana is da Man Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Just when you start to trust him is when he drops a big dud on you. It'll either come this week vs the Bears or next week vs the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Eli earlier in the year and cut him, then he had some good games. Comparing him to Kaep I don't see either one much more than the other, last 4 in my league scored Eli 27-20-16-21, Kaep 19-20-19-33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeductiveNun Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Eli had those weeks with 13, 14, and 9 that cost me badly. Maybe he's got his game together, but I want nothing to do with the befuddled wonder anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malta69 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 To establish a baseline, I'm starting Kap over post concussed Luck in a must win spot this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 To establish a baseline, I'm starting Kap over post concussed Luck in a must win spot this weekend Furthering that... I actually paused when plugging in my QB for one league where I have Brees and Kaepernick. Brees is good against anyone but I gave a brief thought to going with the upside of Kaepernick.

gilthorp Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 The Bears are good against the RB on the ground. Besides that, Alabama might be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelredd9 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Kaepernick is playing like a man on a mission. Between being slighted by the 49ers organization and being in the national spotlight for political reasons, Kaepernick is clearly trying to prove himself. He is running with the ball without much concern for his health. It is making him and the read option very effective. There aren't many quarterbacks I'd start ahead of him.

HowboutthemCowboys Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 The Bears are good against the RB on the ground. Besides that, Alabama might be better.off topic, but what do you think of Wilson this wk and rest of season Gil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 If you talk about playing with purpose, Wilson can't stay healthy because of the way he plays and practices. He plays with a chip on his shoulder, and puts himself out there where he can get hurt at any time. It's apparent he's the only one that has the stamina to play a full game. Meredith was a Hoyer special, and Wilson just runs good routes and will get open. The wildcard is Braverman who they elevated from the practice squad and is a true slot guy, so he may take targets away from Wilson...which is why I wouldn't touch him this week. I'm sure there are better guys available on your ww than Wilson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I suppose. And yeah, this coming week I'd play Brees and Rodgers over him. Maybe Luck or Stafford, but he's right there. He's a FA in my league, surprised somebody hasn't added him. Especially those teams (4-5 at least) that have a big game and need a win. The guy with Brees I understand him passing. If I needed to win this week I'd add him and start over Cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Selfishly, I hope CK continues to play at a high level and solidifies a starting role for next year. I have Mariota and Kapernick as my only dynasty QB's, and I'd rather not have to complicate matters past that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 Could be a fun snow game here in Chicago today. We are expecting up to 4-5 inches where I'm at out West. Not sure how much will fall for the game, but it's coming down as a steady thick coating right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
