43W4 Trash Talk Thread

I wouldn't say it's that bad at all, was just pointing that I traded Fields rather than cutting him. I think if you put Drew Lock on a "trade block" you may not get anything for him and still end up releasing him at the end of the season. You can say you traded for Lock and took a chance on him, and I traded for Trey Lance and he didn't work out either, that's what we do, we try to put together a roster to win games but they don't all work out in the end.

But you won a SB which most of us haven't done yet. No one can argue with that.

[Steve-LA Chargers]

True. I did put Lock on the trading block since week 1. I gave him a chance. It didn't work out. Now as a 100% clone of Tua, the Vikings are set for life. QB Jackson is likely done in Minnesota.

[Matt-Jacksonville]

Ultimately, I'm never acquiring any QB with less than 87 EN going forward. Lock became weak armed in OT on the road when he threw that INT. That 84 EN kicked in for sure. Plus he seemed dead in the water the entire 2nd half. I can move on from this easily. I have Kizer. He's gotta ring.

This is why I ultimately cut QB Rudolph.

[Mitch-Oilers]

@Steve - well, since you mentioned it... its only a 3% difference in an 84 rated player and an 87 rated player.

Yes, there is a difference but not a huge difference.

[Jerry-Redskins]

3% matters. Only takes one play to lose.

[Mitch-Oilers]

@Jerry - oh geez...

And ironically Kizer has an 86 EN. To truly prove this thesis, I’d have to start Justin Herbert who has an 87 EN and is very similar to Kizer. I probably won’t do it this week at home versus Chicago, but it might be worth testing out next week at KC.

[Mitch-Oilers]

@Steve - you should start Robinson against KC. He has an 87 EN.

[Dean-Atlanta]

3% matters. Only takes one play to lose.

Exactly. One play would have been a TD kin my game vs KC and a 24-21 score AFTER KC scored their 3rd TD, and the error in my profile causing the FG to not be kicked, would not have caused the loss in the game.
