Reaction to Week 10: Stick and stone week. Did you get a stick or stoned with my sitters? Let’s see how I did. First off, at QB, I said to sit Kyler Murray and Jared Goff. In his game, Murray had 266 yards passing, 21 yards rushing, and 3 TDs. I was very wrong to sit him. Goff ended up with 240 yards passing, 2 TDs, and 5 picks. I was very right to sit him. At RB, I said to sit Tony Pollard and Tank Bigsby. Pollard got 44 yards rushing, 19 yards receiving, and nothing else. I was right to sit him. Bigsby got 4 yards rushing and nothing else, so I was right to sit him too. At wideout, I said to sit Marvin Harrison, Jr. and CeeDee Lamb. Harrison had only 54 yards receiving, but he got a TD, so I was wrong to sit him. Lamb, meanwhile, had 21 yards receiving and nothing else, so I was right to sit him. At tight end, I said it sit Jake Ferguson and Sam LaPorta. Ferguson got 24 yards receiving and lost a fumble. I was right to sit him. LaPorta, on the other hand, got 66 yards receiving and a TD, so I was wrong to sit him. For the team defenses, I said to sit the Steelers and the Broncos. The Steelers won, allowed 27 points, along with getting a fumble recovery and 3 sacks. I am glad I was wrong to sit them. The Broncos lost, allowed only 16 points, along with getting 4 sacks. Good enough to say I was wrong to sit them too. Alright, time for 2 sticks, week 11.
QB:
Patrick Mahomes: He has a Bills D that is much better against the pass than they have been against the run. Tough match up and tough game to try and stay undefeated.
Kirk Cousins: He will be on the road against a Denver D that is top 10 against the pass so far. Not a good match up for him either.
RB:
Chase Brown: He has a Chargers rush D that is top 3 in the league. Plus, he will probably cede some more touches to Khalil Herbert. NO. NO.
Najee Harris: Baltimore is still good against the run. Assuming Jaylen Warren plays, he will out touch and out yard Harris due to passes out of the backfield. Better hope for a cheap TD, the yardage won’t be there.
WR:
Packers WRs: Chicago is top 3 against the pass so far. Take this with the fact that Love shares the wealth, there is no way to know which one will get the stats. So, sit them all – group punishment.
Brian Thomas, Jr.: Keep him benched as long as Lawrence is not playing, and Mac Jones is the starting QB.
TE:
Jake Ferguson: No Prescott + no back up with any quality + he is going up against a Texans pass D that has given up the least amount of receiving yards to tight ends = no no boo boo.
Evan Engram: He is also on a team with a crappy back up QB, and he is going up against a Lions pass D that is top 3 in the league in least TDs allowed to the position. Not a good match up for him either.
D:
Steelers: I tried to sit them last week to no avail. Baltimore has a better offense than Washington, so my sit dance should be more on point this week.
Bears: Just don’t think this solid D has enough on the other side to keep up with the Packers offense, especially considering the Packers D is pretty good too.
