I’m not sure how to describe last week other than disappointing and a missed opportunity. Kevin Stefanski neglected to give Dick Fucking Chubb enough touches to have the proper eruption game I was expecting when I made him the CGG. I thought for sure when Baker went down it was going to happen, but I was very wrong. I say missed opportunity because I was largely off of the chalk Chargers-Cowboys stacks, but instead was on around 40-50% Russ to Metcalf with Julio/Brown on the comeback. Not having Henry in any of those stacks was so bad I almost want to delete my account. I’m so fucking tilted about it still.
I was on KJ Osborn, but also had Jefferson and Hopkins in most of those lineups. Overall, there were several hits, but the lack of Dick Chubb explosion combined with Hopkins, Frankenstein Montgomery, Metcalf and AJ Brown getting the icicles ultimately capped my winnings.
I just about broke even on the main slate and then proceeded to get my mouth shit in *taps chest twice and points to sky in honor of Odell* on the showdown slates on Sunday Night and Monday Night, as is tradition.
I’ll take a quick look ahead at the Thursday Night Game. Holy shit can they pick a worse fucking matchup. Somehow it gets worse each week I don’t know how they manage to do it. I think they just put the worst teams on there constantly because people are itching to watch anything by Thursday and us degen are fiending for a chance to ignite our money on the showdown papa.
Carolina is going to ass blast the Texans. Chris Conley is an absolute lock at $1k. Leave some significant dick on the table for this one, but I’ll be playing pretty much all Panthers, including the defense. I’m having a hard time creating a lineup I like for this one, but whatever I end up with will include Conley and Panthers D. I am thinking about fading CMC for leverage purposes alone, his ownership % will surely be over 90% (Maybe can leave a little less dick on the table in this scenario) I like DJ Moore and Brandin Cooks as well. Cooks has been a target monster for Houston and didn’t really seem to slow down too much with Mills.
I’ll be back on Friday or Saturday for the week 3 preview and the week 3 CGG.
