NFT: Fantasy Football - 12/2

UConn4523 : 12/2/2019 11:53 am
question of the day is - should DeAndre Hopkins get credit for a "passing" TD? I've watched it over and over and i can't tell if its a lateral or not. If it is, its considered a Watson rushing TD which is huge.

I'm against Hopkins in my work league but I'm in the playoffs so I don't really care either way. But Im guessing that effects a lot of people who are on the fringe of making the playoffs one way or another.
If it went forward, yes. Hard to tell, though.

On a separate note - I got completely hosed by James White racking up garbage time stats last night. He put up 38 points, most of which came in the 4th qtr.

Now I need Dalvin Cook to put up 30 points tonight. Hoping for a shootout.
I'm in the opposite camp here...

I have Hopkins and I'm projected to be down this weekend in the first weekend of playoffs (ours is two weeks per round), so I needed Hopkins to score points for me. When it was initially ruled a rushing TD by Watson, I was annoyed as shit, but it was a clear forward lateral pass. The fantasy football gods smiled upon me to make up for my players underperforming this weekend (other than Rodgers)...:(

I need Delvin Cook to go off tonight so I can at least stay within striking distance of my opponent, who has Lockett, Rudolph, and Seattle D playing tonight. We're currently 96 to 92. If I remain close, I can probably take him next week.

I know, just curious if that's the correct call. I didn't realize it was first considered a rush so I guess it was already reviewed.

Yeah...it was initially a rushing TD for Watson. It took about 15 minutes for the stats to change on my two leagues.
Just watched the Hopkins replay

That was a pass? Hardly, but I see why they counted it as one. It traveled forward just enough to not register as a backward lateral. Completely weird.

Not complaining by the way considering I have Hopkins on my roster. HA!

killed me in that game. And Ronald Jones II, and Kittle, and Sammy Watkins with the goose egg. Mike Williams LAC, Kareem Hunt, and Dallas Goedert were all sitting on my bench. Rough week.

Yeah...ouch.

I had Robert Woods on my bench and had Cooper Kupp playing, but thankfully Kupp was able to get the TD to meet his projection. Kittle, Barkley, and Fournette underperforming is making me nervous for this playoff run. Thankfully, my opponent had McCafery and he underperformed as well.
Question for tonight,  
smshmth8690 : 12/2/2019 4:16 pm : link
Rudolph or Hollister. I'm down about 30 points in a PPR. I don't have much of a chance.

Yeah, you want to stick by your guys regardless of matchup but it can be hard. Two of those fantasy mistakes I made was chasing matchups. If the Bucs were playing a strong run defense, I probably would have had Hunt in. It's my fault for playing Watkins, I should have done anything but put him back in my starting lineup. Hopefully Julio is back for me next week. Still tied for best record with playoffs clinched.
Fuller would have been fine

If he didn’t drop *yet* another touchdown put right in his breadbasket

The guy has one good game all year. I think I’m done with him - hopefully Julio returns next week and I just go Slayton at wr2. I’m done with mclaurin too- not his fault, Haskins isn’t a pro QB

Yeah, I feel you. He had a strong performance the week before though. I've had Cooks and Watkins during parts of this year as well and I actually trust Fuller a little more than them, sad to say. I've been treading water at WR all year but I've had strong RB play for the most part. D. Henry (excellent), L. Bell (decent), and J. Jacobs as an overachieving FLEX. I'm in a 3 WR league and some weeks it's been tight just having an active body in there. DK Metcalf has become a regular. And my best WR (Julio) as I'm sure your aware hasn't even had a TD in what, a dozen weeks almost?
