Not only did I start Kareem Hunt, Jamies is my QB, so I scooped Alex Smith off waivers and started him, since Bucs/Dolphins was cancelled. My opponent started the pats D/ST. I'm in the lead 88.3 to -1 right now with just Hunt and Smith having played this week. You guys are way better than those lames over at Fantasy Smack Talk.

[Rustycan]

Yay! Starts! Clicked on it as soon as I saw it

[rvanemburg]

i drive all day for work and use my phone to listen to podcasts on YouTube so i always catch them after they've aired. However, they always show up in my feed at the 2nd half of my day, and i look forward to your podcast more than i look forward to 5 o'clock. You guys rock, i feel great about my teams this year and you 3 helped make it possible. Good Luck to you this season guys.

[danielg.]

I'd like to be the footballers trusted black correspondent.

[LuvLikeTruck]

I've got the Ice Kareem Sandwich loaded into one of my rb spots (let's hope he doesn't melt), but I'm not sure for my rb2 position. Mark Ingram or Frank Gore.

I'm leaning towards Ingram.

Can't watch for Doug Martin to be off suspension

Yes! The Saints r going this year. A lot of hype down here in NOLA. Bree's and AP need a ring

[dcwhite]

2 questions: Martavus Bryant or Kelvin Benjamin as Flex? Bilal Powell or Robert Kelley as RB2? I'm much more torn on the 1st part

[cainlegacy]

There's a lot of buzz today about Gillislee not even being active tonight (since they re-signed Bolden for special teams play), just a heads up.

[evanwaters]

Kareem Hunt hell yeah!!!! And i have David Johnson. 😈😈

[tune]

Who do I start at WR2 Pryor or Hilton (PPR), And do I start (Stafford, Dalton, or Hilton/Pryor) at flex
