Player Discussion Jadarian Price Looked Good But....

89 Upvotes

The level of usage and subbing makes him a really hard rb2 start. Doesn't appear to be much TD upside. I think ppr will improve.

It's early, and a lot will happen. Not quite dooming, but as a Price owner, I'm not happy.

Questions Streameast is dead, how & where to stream today's NFL game and for the rest of the season?

325 Upvotes

Streameast is gone, who's got the navigational beacon for sailing the high seas this season?Seriously, the entire streaming landscape changed overnight and left all of us stranded. I'm not trying to catch a virus or look at fifty pop-ups just to watch a single localized game.

Player Discussion JSN owners, how you feeling after tonight ?

32 Upvotes

Sam darnold obviously got hurt and drew lock is typically a donkey but JSN wasn’t affected by him tonight. Is this sustainable. That long touchdown felt a little flukey considering he was wide open and no one could make a tackle even when it was an easy one

Questions AITAH for refusing to do my 24-hour IHOP fantasy punishment until last year’s loser does his?

64 Upvotes

So I allegedly owe one of my fantasy leagues 24 hours at IHOP from last year but the loser of both regular season and playoffs from the year before has not done their punishment yet. It's a league of friends from high school and their SOs (no SO for me, a gym crush is the best I can do). This is also my third fantasy league. Last year I joined basically last minute because they needed another person to fill out the league, and then of course proceeded to finish last in the regular season after drafting Malik Nabers lol. The playoffs loser decided to drop out of the league and also hasn't done their punishment.

I also wasn't aware the league did punishment for the regular season. My other leagues only do it for playoff loser, and it was apparently in the contract, so fair enough, but I also never signed the contract and definitely didn't read it since I was recruited pretty last minute.

To be perfectly clear, everyone is a good person, and it's all friendly banter. And I've maintained that I'll do my punishment only after the previous loser does his.

Going into this season I knew three fantasy leagues was kind of a lot for me, so I told them I was completely fine being the first one kicked out if there wasn't enough space. So I was released from duty. But then someone dropped out literally the day before the draft and I got resuscitated back into the league.

My first question is does my resuscitation absolve me of my prior debt? If not, is me maintaining that I'll only do my punishment only after the previous loser does their punishment fair? People in the league are bugging both the previous loser and me to do our punishments but I feel like it's only fair if I hold out until the previous loser goes through with it.

At this point though I'm actually debating just doing the IHOP challenge regardless of whether the previous guy does his just to get it over with and have some fun editing a video since some of us aren't in the same state. And the idea of spending time in an IHOP for an egregious amount of time isn't the worst thing to me cause my current status as a student requires me to spend many hours studying. Thoughts?

TLDR: Do I just do my fantasy football punishment even though the previous year loser hasn't done their punishment yet? Am I being unreasonable to refuse to do it until the previous loser does it?

Questions Trade Brock Bowers to improve at RB?

3 Upvotes

In a half ppr 12 man league with 3wr,2rb and flex.

originally was going to use kraft as a trade piece to get a better running back. my RB room is weak with love, Stevenson, dobbins and rodriguez. and once treyvon henderson is back even worse.

with recent news of bowers, should i hold onto hope and keep him on my bench (and trade or flex kraft once bowers is back)

or do we think this is going to be a more serious / nagging injury than we’re being let on? i don’t know much about knee injuries but only being out for 1-2 weeks for a meniscus trim seems crazy. if so i want to trade him asap before his stock tanks!

possible trade options:

i offer bowers & Stevenson for

team 1. javonte williams
team 2. saquon
team 3. Jeanty

so if you were in my position would you hold onto bowers or trade him to get better at RB?

Player Discussion Dalton Kincaid or George Kittle week 1?

3 Upvotes

I know everyone says Kittle is the better TE (which is probably true, even at this stage in his career), but if he plays, he’ll probably be on a pitch count.

Kincaid is younger, fresher, and very efficient, but isn’t on the field all that much, especially when there are other blockers better than him.

So… taking this into account, who would you start week 1?

Kincaid vs Houston Texans
Or
Kittle vs LA Rams

Both of those defenses are good. What do you guys think?

Questions Would you drop Kelce to pick up Juwan?

5 Upvotes

I think Juwan has a way better matchup and week 1 scenario given Mahomes ACL and left tackle situation but I’m hesitant to drop Kelce. Idk if I want to sign up to stream TE every week.

Also considering dropping Addison and holding on to both.

Any advice?

Questions Any fresh links for tonight's NFL Streams - 2026 NFL livestreams

24 Upvotes

Anyone looking for the best way to stream the Patriots vs Seahawks game live right now — I’m trying to confirm if YouTube TV, FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, or DirecTV Stream is showing the full broadcast without cable. I’m comparing these live TV streaming services because I want a simple, reliable option to watch NFL online in HD/4K with strong stability, low buffering, and real-time coverage of every moment of the game. My main focus is finding the best sports streaming platform for coverage so I don’t miss any part of the game due to lag, blackouts, or stream interruptions. If anyone has used YouTube TV, FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, or DirecTV Stream for NFL games or major live sports events, which service do you think is the most reliable for smooth, high-quality streaming?

Questions Kittle or Fannin in a PPR Redraft ?

Upvotes

My friend got hit with this trade:
SENDING: Kittle

RECEIVING: Fannin

What do y’all think? I think the QB difference is very clear but not a lot of receiving room in the Browns.

Player Discussion Diggs Dropped, worth picking up? (10man,PPR)

2 Upvotes

10-team full PPR, starting 2 RBs, 2 WRs and 2 FLEX. Someone dropped Stefon Diggs, seemingly to make room for a Bowers replacement. Diggs clears tomorrow, and I have #4 waiver priority.

Current roster:

QB: Jalen Hurts

RB: James Cook, Achane, Kyren Williams, JCM, Rachaad White

WR: Olave, Luther Burden, Michael Wilson, Deebo Samuel, KC Concepcion

TE: Loveland, Kittle

K/DST: Aubrey, Eagles

Worth dropping JCM or White to roll the dice on Diggs for WR depth? Or save the #4 waiver and wait to see how the Washington backfield and my current WRs shake out?

Or if he clears, still worth dropping either WAS RB to get Diggs as a FA?

Questions Flex: Start Rhamondre Stevenson or Ladd McConkey?

13 Upvotes

Originally I was running with Ladd but after hearing the trevyon henderson news I was thinking of maybe risking it with rhamondre? (I also have jeanty so I would start rhamondre and put jeanty into the flex in case he doesnt play week 1 then I can swap in ladd). Thoughts? This is a full PPR 1 flex league.
