Notice the Chiefs did it again?
Scores equal, 1.46 left in the game, ball on their own 30.
They kick a 31yd FG with 0.0 on the clock.
The biggest gain of that last drive?
A run by Mahones where he heads for the sideline for minimal gain, looks to be running out of bounds, but then straightens up and gains about 35yds.
On the Rotoworld podcast they claim it is a form of "cheating":
they think that Mahomes is taking advantage of the "roughing the passer" rules
they say that while Mahomes looks to be going out of bounds defenders are wary of tackling him and getting a 15yd penalty
so they hold off and Mahomes takes advantage
they say Mahomes does it fairly often

I have no opinion.

Rotoworld are talking BS. Mahomes has every right to run wherever he wants - it's up to the defence to be prepared and react accordingly.

PPPPPP.

Projected: 510; Actual: 474
I'd hoped to do better given how few bye players I had.
I think I have a decent squad but rarely get my c/vc and bench choices right.
I've hovered ariund the #325 ranking since wk.08.

Strange that my RDT team never achieves the projected score but both my draft teams do - sometines by quite a lot.

Kelce inclusion to avoid a McBride and Kincaid donut did not go to plan. :ROFLMAO:

No Barkley but do not particularly want to hold onto three trades and the Tracy Jr upgrade would need to be funded by Darnold to Rush. Not confident in Rush as a season keeper so will need to let Saquon slide by.
-68 points from not going ahead with the trade. Also left 27 points on the bench by fielding Bowers over McBride.

No trades as of yet.

A pleasing week for me. My trade ins scored well:
Out Cedric Tillman to Nico Collins (35)
Out Washington to Tampa Bay Buccaneers (20)

Darnold (42) was my Captain.

Barkley (88) was a significant help, but I would never choose him as a Captain because I will always place my trust in Hurts first.
