Was it just me or was the best part of MNF last night the Star Wars Trailer?
 
So do we root for Chicago tonight knowing SD has a tie-breaker on us when it comes to draft pick?
 
I don't mention FF on here much but since Tom did...

I already stand to win over $200 without tonight's game. I could reach the 1000.00+ brackets if Floyd/Johnson has a decent game for San Diego.

I have about 6 lineups in Fan Duel and all of them have a good possibility of cashing. I had A Brown in every lineup, crabtree in 5, D Williams in 3. Have 2 Cutler / Jeffrey stacks, a few shares of M Bennett and one Rivers, Johnson & Floyd.

All that said...I won't be getting to that $1000 level! most of mine are double up, triple up and two 5x.

D Williams is going to get real expensive after next week, if not this week. I started him, Brown, and Delanie Walker. That's the meat of my points this week.
 
Bears win. Lions take a stranglehold on last place.
 
"Cutler has the MOST game-winning TD passes in the 4th quarter since 2009. (12)"

Cutler and Stafford showing how overrated that statistic really is.

last night went about as bad as it could have. Still won a little coin though. Maybe this week you can fill me in on TE selection ;) Walker was a beast!
 
Watching Jeremy Langford last night made me see more proof of why the Lions are bad. We took a RB 2 rounds higher than Langford, our guy, Abdullah, can barely hang onto the ball so we can't trust him to play all that much, he's also not an option to keep in as a blocker to pick up blitzes.

John Fox, who has a history of drafting winning rosters, picked a RB in the 4th round who can play every down and does everything well. He's showed good burst and toughness, picked up 1st downs and TDs in short yardage situations, caught 3 passes for 70 yards including a nice diving grab 30 yards down field that would have been a good grab for a WR. Langford had 142 total yards, but perhaps just ass big of a contribution was his blocking, he picked up blitzers easily all night, not missing 1 single block and always identifying the right guy to block.

Now I'm an MSU homer, but damnit, Abdullah sucks compared to Langford and he's never going to be anywhere near as valuable as Langford is as an every down back. Abdullah didn't fix his ball security issues in 4 years at Nebraska, he's also still only 185-190 lbs. So basically we drafted a kick returner who can sometimes be a change of pace back in the 2nd round, awesome!

I was hoping the Lions would taken Langford last year...I even thought the 3rd was where they should have taken him.

Yeah, I doubt Langford is going to be a super start like Le'Veon Bell, but for a 3rd round pick he's going to be a solid 3 down back who you know exactly what you'll be getting from in any situation. That's the type of 4th round pick you get a ton of value from. The Lions took DT Gabe Wright in their 4th round, he 's barely played.

I thought "wow" when he laid out for that 30 yard pass down the sideline. I think he knows this is his chance to give make the Bears feel it is OK to move on from Forte.
 
You mean to tell me the Bears actually won last night wuuuh da hells they couldn't even beat the lions for krcised sakes
