  • Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew has a sprained foot that the team believes will sideline him multiple games, a team source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

    Jones-Drew will not need surgery, which means he does not have a Lisfranc injury, the source said.
    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

    • Tom Brady led Ice Hawks with 39.86 points

      •Did not start Josh Freeman, who led the team in scoring with 50.20 points
      This was one of the tightest outcomes to date, with the 6.82-point margin of victory being the eighth-smallest recorded in the league this season.
      I was predicting a better season this year for Josh Freeman (which it is debatable), but I didn't think I would ever "regret" playing Brady over Freeman. If someone from 2 days in the future had come to me on Saturday and told me that Freeman would score more points than Brady, I don't think I could have made the switch (though it would have meant a win over Guynemer this week in IDP), I picked Freeman for the Brady bye week more than anything, and have little intention of playing him any other week. It stands to reason that on occassion the backup will outperform the starter, but it hurts when it is the difference between winning or losing when it happens!

      • No one without a lobotomy would start Freeman over Brady.

        • In D/ST league, I started Freeman for Rivers' bye and he gave me a W over Koyaa. I'm considering starting Freeman over Rivers period now.

          • 6-1 now and i have just beaten the #1 scoring team (giving him his second loss) and that was with MJD in my starting lineup; and speaking of MJD, I managed to pick up his back-up (who had previously been on my roster during his 'hold-out') from the waiver wire.

              The beauty of playing for money is our waiver wire is a blind auction. I put $10 on Jennings when I already have Forte, Lynch, Martin, Leshoure, and Ballard and we only start 2 RB's... just to prevent the guys starting the likes of Alex Green from having him. Hopefully no one bids higher, though I have seen some players go for $30+

              • My money league we also have a blind auction, and he went for $42 (out of $100 for the season per player, plus however many leftover dollars you had from the auction).

                • In D/ST:

                  You currently have 3 empty spot(s) on your roster.
                  ****. I really don't know who to get to fill up those spots. There's like nothing out there in free agency.

                      • Consider investing in a couple injured guys coming back in the next few weeks.
                        Or get some matchup-based bye week insurance for week 9 and week 10.

                                I usually don't feel qualified to answer these type of questions, but hopefully you will listen and hear my weak answer:

                                J. Jones (GB) v. Jax hands down.
