MNF Double Header: Texans @ Saints & Broncos @ Raiders

ChaChing : 9/9/2019 7:35 pm
With the Saints supposedly being weak on D, they surely started this game strong. Quite the pass rush on Watson so far (oh how we long for one of those again)

Hopkins w/ a rare drop, only 3 last year. Seems like they might go heavy run to mitigate NO's O as well as do whats worked so far, esp if NO's pass rush keeps up
Brees with an awful pick

LOL I was likely to lose nor do I root for injuries...  
ChaChing : 9/9/2019 8:34 pm : link
but if Watson doesn't play from here, he did literally just enough - +0.5-1 pt worth - to get my FF team the L. Aaaaand that's why I hadn't played in yrs, musta forgot. Expected results ha

FWIW this is what SBs usage should look like  
ChaChing : 9/9/2019 9:36 pm : link
After struggling, NO has leaned heavy on Kamara in the 2nd half...go figure. Not sure why it takes a half as opposed to knowing this from minute one, but goes to show you it happens w/ other teams tho it shouldn't (and at least they made the adjustment where NYG not so much)

I also like the variety with which they use him. Not that SB doesn't at all but watching this it feels like it's real tough to key in on him in spite of knowing he's the #1 weapon for NO
I like nothing about the Saints...

playing the violin for Brees.

Look at all he's overcome. Small size QB from the Big 10. Shoulder injury not knowing if he'd ever play again and here he is throwing big passes after a heck of a career. Like Brees is the first QB to get injured. He's hardly some sob story

Two incredible throws by Watson. He really stood in the pocket on the second, knowing that he was going to be hit.

The Texans miss the extra point, but the Saints are called for a PF by running into the kicker. The next extra point is good.

No shit. I don't get the knee jerk impulse to immediately inform anyone nearby about what your dumb ff team just did.
