Don't think the NFL doesn't have their own narratives they like to see play out (like making sure the Vikings don't get too far ahead of the other teams in the NFC North and/or get in the way of another current darling of the NFL the Detroit Lions). Feel good stories equal more eyeballs on the games equal more revenue.

In 12 and 14 team leagues that start 3 wrs and how the wr position has been decimated by injuries Dhop is definitely WR3 with WR2 upside.

All scoring plays are reviewed, right? A safety is a scoring play (by the defense but still a scoring play). The NFL was getting a nice feel-good story with America's sweetheart(s) Kupp and Stafford back together (and to a lesser degree, Puka) and beating the tough Vikings. They weren't sure Darnold and the Vikings were going to fully cooperate so the refs on the field (and the booth) looked the other way.

...and Jennings has been ruled out this week so bump up Pearsall.

If Meyers ever gets healthy. You'd think he was waiting to be traded as well. I don't think it's happening my guy lol.

For example, there will be less red-zone plays specifically designed for Kelce (like that patented shovel-pass that already hasn't worked this year). Look, I have Kelce too and I have mixed feelings about DHop coming to KC. Dhop will take the Rice role and there was a lot of intermediate plays to Rice across the middle that is usually Kelce's area. if I'm being honest, I'm more concerned about Noah Gray getting more involved recently/taking targets away from Kelce than DHop (at this point anyway).

This is where it will hurt Kelce the most.

I think this speaks to JuJu maybe being out longer than a couple weeks/maybe going on IR.

I find Belichick's analysis of games/players/formations, etc. on the ManningCast pretty interesting. His banter back and forth with the Mannings (especially Peyton) is very entertaining. One note would be to not talk over Peyton and Eli as much as he does. Although some may like that as well lol.

Jalen McMillan. Mayfield loves to sling it and needs somebody out there other than Otton. Sterling Shepard is there as well.

Wow Evans AND Godwin out for the foreseeable future. Feel terrible for them and the Buccaneers as they were a good NFL (and fantasy) story building on last year's unexpected success. Probably torpedoes their chances at making more noise in the NFC South and craters Mayfield's fantasy season.

Touchdown pass to Evans. He landed a little awkwardly in the endzone and didn't seem too enthusiastic about his TD catch. Something to keep an eye on. Hopefully he is fine.

Yeah the injuries (and now sudden illnesses apparently) are wreaking havoc on teams this year.

Well, that's a clean sweep of my starting wide outs. First Rashee, then Nico and now Brandon. Honorable mention to Juju, who I picked up last week and promptly injured himself in practice.

Rib injury for Daniels. Questionable to return. Brian Robinson just scored so 17-0 Washington. Game keeps going this way they won't put Daniels back in even if x-rays are negative. Why risk further injury?
