THOUGHTS: We're getting to the point of the season where we can start to make some definitive predictions on the postseason. In the AFC, I think it's down to nine teams for seven spots -- maybe 10 if Cleveland can get on a run and Watson makes an immediate impact. You can go ahead an pencil in Tennessee as the South champ. ... The NFC looks a little more set. Washington and Atlanta are only a half game back of the seven seed but I suspect the Niners are about to go on a run, and the Commies and Falcons play each other in a couple of weeks, so that will eliminate one of them from wild card contention. The Rams are only a game back at 3-5 but they stink, have no run game and are going to get Kupp killed. The Packers look lifeless. The Saints? Andy Dalton isn't leading that team anywhere. The only way anyone else sneaks in is if the Giants collapse, and I'm not sure that's in the cards.

That total bust is the No. 1 fantasy QB the past 3 (4? 5?) weeks. He’s a top 5 fantasy QB the rest of the season, barring injury, I think.

 

[Cosmo]

I picked him up as a spec play last week and had him on my bench. Still won easily because nearly everyone else went off, but he'll be my starter over Murray this week for sure.

 

[Regan MacNeil]

Now watch him **** the bed against Detroit.

Me posting about Fields positively is definitely going to cause a backslide, but I don’t care.

On the other side of the spectrum, the Saturday said the Colts will be sticking with Ehlinger at quarterback.

Definitely looking forward to the Indy-Vegas game for the train wreck potential.

Colts with an unproven QB and no offensive play caller, one week after the team's worst offensive performance in over 20 years.

Maybe Saturday brings Peyton in to call plays. Or have him play QB.

And does Vegas spend time this week reviewing three year old tapes from Hebron Christian Academy?

Prediction: Raiders 4, Colts 0.

Now watch him **** the bed against Detroit.

What’s great about the Lions and Bears is both teams are looking at the other and saying: “Hey, this is somebody we can beat.”

I picked him up as a spec play last week and had him on my bench. Still won easily because nearly everyone else went off, but he'll be my starter over Murray this week for sure.

I got him as a throw in on a trade in a superflex league and have been starting him as my second QB ever since. This past week, he and Mahomes (my QB1) combined for 86 points.

Yes, I know no one cares. But I don’t care that you don’t care.

Is Justin Fields elite?

 

[Regan MacNeil]

Nope. Mediocre-to-bust.

Justin Fields ... the guy I put on season-long IR five weeks ago. But anyway, NGAFAMFT.

 

[poindexter]

I actually care.
How do you put Fields on season long IR when he wasn't actually hurt?

 

[DanOregon]

Surprised more people haven't received their walking papers after that Jags game. Don't know how many times they were in third and long and it took Carr and Adams to bail them out. And every other time, Carr would get sacked.

Geez - Gruden was a horrible player evaluator.

I hope Jeff Saturday finds a Gal Friday on help him on Sundays so he doesn't have to hear all the Monday morning quarterbacking, especially from 'Til Tuesday.

(I'll see myself out. Boo.)

Thirsty Thursday works just as hard and deserves coverage too.

Especially when he is clearly a hybrid of 1984 Dan Marino, 1988 Randall Cunningham and Zeus (the Greek god, not the Ravens offensive tackle)?
