**Louisvillekid1** · 09-05-13, 09:28 PM

**LT Profits** · 09-05-13, 09:34 PM

Remember Kevin Ogletree for Dallas last year. He had a huge Week 1 and was then never heard from again.

**Louisvillekid1** · 09-05-13, 09:36 PM

Manning will find this guy...

**nvrlose37** · 09-05-13, 09:38 PM

Already have him and his 21 pts on my bench haha

**PAYTON20** · 09-05-13, 09:43 PM

Saloon this shit

Never understood why grown men close to their 50's play fantasy football.

Huh?

I guess you think a 50 year old shouldn't be gambling either then?

It's basically just a more involved form of gambling but it also involves more skill than simply picking a team and praying it wins.

**Capybara** · 09-05-13, 10:06 PM

I'm so pissed -- Had him in mind at my draft and it comes to me late to take my TE2 and I take Coby Fleener. Then I decide I'll dump one of my extra WRs to pick him up in the preseason waiver move, but by then the word on him winning the job is out and he goes one spot before me!!! FUUUUKKKK!!!

And its a LEGAL form of gambling (um....I mean.....game of skill) in the USA.

He is now, lol!

**the_situation** · 09-06-13, 12:40 AM

will prob have a good year, but i bet this is his best game all season. Balty's safety coverage is horrible

**thes0vereign** · 09-06-13, 12:50 AM

Could become Antonio Gates 2.0 until Peyton retires.. then we'll see what he really is.

As far as fantasy goes, everyone who has no TE backup.

He was announced the starting TE on August 31st.

I'm thinking this scenario here. This is his best game of the year.

people think peyton's gonna throw 7 tds a game or something.

this is once in a life time game for peyton people.

To escape for three hours from their fantasy wives.

On a serious note, because it's a fun way for the sports fan to enjoy his Sunday afternoon off from their Mon-Fri 9 to 5 grind.

I do it, and so does my wife, what exactly is your problem with a sports fan enjoying football with a fantasy team, anyway?

No shit, but there are only, maybe four players alive today capable of having this once in a lifetime game.

**ChalkyDog** · 09-06-13, 02:33 AM

Picked up in all of my leagues. One guy dropped Bilal Powell for him.

I am attempting to get Powell off waivers. Always need running backs. Random TE's that have 1 explosive game are a dime a dozen.

I never understood how someone on a sports gambling forum could in anyway criticize how someone else spends their time.

good point. who cares who does what. On the actual reason for the post this was a lifetime game for the guy IMO

**darrell74** · 09-06-13, 05:51 AM

Bronco homer in my 17 team league did not keep Antonio Gates,
drafted and started Thomas this week.

Basically, a steal as the 246th overall drafted player in our draft, last Sunday afternoon

**Crayzee** · 09-06-13, 10:41 AM

first place in fanduel $25 game pays 5 g's you aint getting that kinda return with no fuggin third world bookie baseball $25 games can pay from 1700 to 1000 nightly money can go into your pay papal almost immediately!

**RyanLeafOfBets** · 09-06-13, 10:43 AM

I have him in 3 out of my 7 leagues... all on the bench. Oops.

I think he will have a good year, but won't duplicate those numbers.

**Fred The Hammer** · 09-06-13, 10:52 AM

Orange Julius is on my bench. He'll prob be hit-n-miss but I'm running with Finley GB as my starter and he's mostly miss. Just had to see how PM would use all those weapons first.

**Big Bear** · 09-06-13, 10:56 AM

the team i'm playing this week already has him.

but he is on the bench lol this guey is starting Greg Olsen over him

**flocko76** · 09-06-13, 11:03 AM

i'll look into it. have the guy from chicago. should have jumped on te sooner.

**onlooker** · 09-06-13, 11:14 AM

I would of picked him up when he was announced the starter last week, but he has the same BYE week as my other TE.

If I did have him, definitely wouldn't of started him. He was untested in game play, I think one catch going into last night, so it would of been a stash as wait approach.

I agree with some above, that this will probably be his best game of the year. Peyton won't have a 7 TD game again in his career. So many options for him to throw too. Decker was the odd man out last night, and who knows who will get the short end of the stick next week.

They are looking like the Packers now. So many passing options and no running game.

**HOOKEMcnh** · 09-06-13, 01:04 PM

he's going to dominate

**daneblazer** · 09-06-13, 01:05 PM

Decker wasn't even an odd man out, he had 7 targets and caught only 2. Everyone had their chance.

**Wrigley** · 09-06-13, 03:46 PM

wiill be the big pickup after week one, but He might not have a 2 td game the rest of the season
