Ummm...

Today has been a perfect example of what I've been talking about.

Eli? Elite QB and proving it. Some of the throws he has made have been awesome.
Alex? Good QB but not elite. He has made some great throws but has also made some just dumb throws.

We'll see if Alex can bring his club down from big. I for one hope he does.

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.
 
I'm not going to get into this whole Alex Smith thing, but The Giants D definitely has his number.

Another solid game from Bradshaw. Although it's as much Bradshaw as it is The Giant's O-Line getting it together.

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.

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

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.

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...

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.
 
Its not ever going to be perfect anyways. Thats just how fantasy goes. It doesnt always reflect reality.
 
Looking forward to watching my Broncos stomp on the Chargers. I hope Miller gets 5 sacks.
 
YB, as a Phins fan Just wanted to say thanks to your Rams. That FG kicker has a booming leg but it shouldn't have been that close, they got lucky they overturned those two fumbles.
