Captain Caveman

I was in India, and couldn't sleep, so woke up early and watched some highlights before touring the Taj Mahal. I remember feeling like that team was on the verge of greatness. Oh well, it was a great day anyway

Ok - yeah, last week someone had asked about doing another one for the main Sunday slate, but it definitely seems like we might be spread too thin since we didn't have enough folks Thursday. From next week we'll just do the Sunday evening games.

Ok - for this week it's already set, but can try that next week (assuming we can get enough folks for these to count.)

Sunday 1PM Contest Sunday Night Contest

Sunday Daytime Contest Sunday Night Contest

Was gonna asked who peed in your Cheerios, but it's pretty clear it was Chicago. Jeez. for the record I like Chicago Do we owe them one?

Or not - we only had 3 people join so tonight's contest isn't happening.

Yes

We have a contest going for tonight's game here.

I've seen some reporters referencing all 22 this year in their game coverage, do they have separate access to another tool to be able to watch the all 22 footage? I wonder if they're trying to see how many people complain to judge whether they can charge more next year for an extra tier including it.

Sure, and teams never ever fudge that. Brady was hurt all last year without being on the report. I feel like the Bills had a similar version of this 2-3 years ago with a defender (maybe Lorenzo Alexander?)

Don't beat yourself up, lots of people watch the olympics. It does look like a mark that could be from cupping. If it is it could be an injury, or he could just be using it as a form of massage / relaxation / therapy.

I don't see Matt Millen on any of the games, was he relieved of his duties?

This is all hall of fame material. Right up there with the old Crayonz posts.

I took my 8 year old to the opener (his first game) and he's going back again with me on Sunday. He was exposed to some new stuff, but nothing too terrible - it probably helped that we're in the 100 level. fans are maybe a little less inebriated (but still pretty lubricated.)

2 keys for this week that I haven't seen mentioned much 1. Especially at home, mix up the snap count. Don't give the defense a head start by using a predictable snap / count. 2. Josh needs to do a better job using his eyes to look off defenders. He was doing a great job of it last year, but this year his eyes are frequently giving away where he wants to go with the ball all game long.

Thursday Night Contest is created here:

Starting a topic for Week 3 contests (I'll create them and post later in the week) I'm thinking I will create one for: Thursday Night Sunday (full slate) Monday Night As always I am open to feedback on buy in, winning distribution and any other tweaks you'd like to see. Thanks! Brendan

Also - I think we won't have the ability to keep this topic pinned long term, so if you haven't already, please join the club (link below) and I will try to post there with links to the weekly contests.

Sure, that's fine with me. Did anyone have any thought / feedback otherwise? Did anyone who wanted to join not get in? Does the payout / scoring structure make sense or should we spread the prizes among top 3 or 4 (or more?)

The defense obviously looked amazing yesterday. One thing too keep an eye out for- we were blitzing all day long (and we should have because it worked.) Generally that doesn't work against KC, blitzing Mahomes has been a surefire way to get torched. We'll see how it goes in a few weeks I guess

Yeah, no one of those sacks I remember seeing on the replay Star getting tripled team while someone else came totally free.

A couple things I think are really holding the offense back - 1. Last week and this there was no variation in the snap count. This week it's understandable on the road, but right now we're making it too easy on the ooposing D line. 2. Josh is staring down receivers over and over. I'm not sure why he's forgotten how to look guys off, but he needs to remember it quick.

Last year Allen was really good at looking off receivers, this year it seems like he just forgot that's a thing you can do.

Here is the link for this week. In future if people want to change it to include other games I'm open to it (although I really like the 1 game contests.) https://www.fanduel.com/entry/64108-248706391?invitedBy=brendankuntz&cnl=ca
