Need to win to make the playoffs and relying on Tua and Waddle right now doesn't make me feel so good.

I know this gets said every week, but the league has to figure something out in regards to roughing the passer. Totally understand the need to protect the health of the players, but what are these defenders supposed to do when trying to sack the quarterback? What seems to be a textbook wrap and tackle frequently ends up as a penalty.

That helps. Wish it would've been to Waddle, but oh well.

I have a league mate who is really raising a fuss about people "stashing" guys on IR similar to this. Wants it to not be allowed. Have told him it's a systemic setting, I believe you can have active guys in IR in both ESPN and Yahoo leagues, maybe more. You just can't add guys to your team when someone who isn't out is in IR.

Any of y'all outlaw this? If so, do you just monitor it weekly as league manager? May start a one off thread, but this post reminded me of it.

I for one have no problem with this "stashing." To me, not being able to add is a big hamstring in a 16 team league.
In our ESPN league you can have someone in the IR as long as you want, but once they are healthy, you can't make any other add/drop moves until you either put them on your real roster or drop them altogether. That seems fair.

Overall, I am a big proponent of stashing guys on the bench just so other teams can't use them, but you shouldn't be able to keep making moves with a healthy guy on the IR.
Yes that's exactly how our ESPN league is. Seems completely fair to me, it hamstrings (no pun intended) the team that is locked from making any moves. If they're good enough to win with an "extra" active player or 2 on IR while not being able to make any waiver moves, more power to them!

If I had been allowed to start all the guys on my bench, the guy on my IR, and all my starters yesterday, I'd still be down 4 points in my matchup.

I can live with those. It's the "if I had played player A instead of player B, I would have won" that tortures me. I had at least 5 of those this year.

Yeah but it's the first week of a 2-week playoff. So my season is basically over. I need Kyler Murray to score around 40 tonight to get the lead down to say 43 points.

Well Murray piled up 0.66 points for me tonight. Going to take a narrow 151-69 loss.

Imagine you are a Cards fan, you save up all season to buy tickets for a game. you score them on Monday night football vs. the Patriots, and 3 plays in, Kyler's out and old ass Colt McCoy is in. Yeesh.

this was a lost season for the Cardinals anyway at 4-8...

but a major injury in December could linger into the start of next season

Well the silver lining is if Cart keeps throwing every pass to James Connor I might eke out a win in my other league. But that seems unlikely too.

Okay, this is so sad it's kind of funny. The person I'm playing apparently hadn't paid attention and started Colt McCoy at Qb this week. Thought I was free and clear, but then after one snap…

Well Connor's on pace for 160 yards rushing and 12 receptions for 60 yards. Keep hitting that safety valve, Cart!
