Yeah raw tackle stats are an awful indicator of safety play. I wouldn’t doubt that a big number of those tackles were impactful though, deshon Elliott is an absolute bull and might actually be capable of playing off ball LB.

What’s more important though… what has he given up in coverage throughout the year? He gave up a lot of big passes in his time here.
187 yards and no touchdowns. Pretty damn good. He's given up a total of 14 receptions.

I'm actually not advocating for literally anything. There's just been multiple rounds of talk over the past year where people have said we need to make major in season adjustments. And that sparked a major pushback from people saying that's basically impossible it never happens.

i mean major adjustments happen all the time in basically every season

what doesnt happen all the time is massive structural change - in fact that kind of stuff basically never happens where the organisation and the set-up look outside the system and the organisation for in-season change schematically or coaching-wise

I have a fantasy question. Currently I sit in first place at 12-2 with a 2 game lead and 11 game winning streak heading into the playoffs. There is no bye week, so I will be playing this week.

Stevenson isn't playing this week so I have a need to fill my RB2 spot (Ekeler is my RB1).

I have the option of playing Dobbins vs the Browns or Brian Robinson vs the Giants. I'm thinking of playing Robinson due to the amount of touches he has been getting, but I'd like to know what everyone else is thinking before I commit.

Thoughts?

The tickets will be good for whatever the first home game is. And if there isn't one, they'll be refunded.

lol you used to be able to buy playoff tickets before the season started. They just refund you if there's no game.
This isn't new or news.

I learned in the Athletic article by Don Pompei that the Ravens want to extend RS before the end of the season. In that article he has been visiting the sites and eating a bunch of crab cakes at Jimmy's and is calling Baltimore home.

We need to teach Roquan Smith that he can get much better crab cakes.

I'd go Dobbins due to the fact that the Redskins have WRs and the Ratbirds do not. With Huntley back there, they'll run all day long. I could honestly see them both have similar success. Can't you start one at flex?

I have WRs galore. Basically Godwin or Kirk are my flex. Yeah my team is loaded

Amon Ra St. Brown (has a tough outing vs the Jets this week)
Tyreek Hill (has a tough outing vs the Bills and trying to figure out his injury.
Kirk
Godwin (will be my flex)
Deebo who has been on the bench for a while
Pickens.

My TE is Kittle

RBs are Ekeler, Robinson, JK Dobbins who I stashed on IR after claiming him.

Believe it or not it's a 12 team league and it's a family brawl. My wife side of the family mostly lives in New England so I'm loving pummeling them.

Ouch, yeah tyreek should be interesting this week between the snow and the injury. Good luck!
