Week 4 NFL Fanduel Misses.

Dalton You Suck.

We're going to call Week 4 The Injury Week. Lotsa players went out early with injuries and thereby killed their owners in weekly leagues.

Sadly, a lot of those injured were part of my Plays of the Week. But what do I do with regards to the weekly Misses column. Is it really my fault that Achilles ruptured and ankles were bent or knees twisted? Of course not, but the result was the same so I'm going to man up and take the hit.

So without further blathering and excuse making here are the Week 4 Misses.


Quarterback Misses

 Andy Dalton
Dalton sucked it up against a Browns team that showed the world that they have not thrown in the towel. His measly 6.54 points in Fanduel were pathetic. Until further notice Dalton is not going to see the light of day in my weekly leagues.
VERDICT: HUGE MISS

Terrele Pryor
Pryor didn't play and if you played him without checking his concussion status (as I told you here) then that is on you.
VERDICT: PUSH

Running Back Misses

Darren McFadden
Okay he went out in the first quarter with a crap-tastic 29 yards. Guess the injury bug is back.
VERDICT: HUGE MISS

Bernard Pierce
The Ravens evidently do not like running the ball. The entire TEAM ran for 24 yards on nine carries. WTF is that??? It is time to admit that Baltimore is not a mid level much less upper tier team.
VERDICT: HUGE MISS

Wide Receiver Misses

NONE
Torrey Smith killed it and Pierre Thomas caught a TD. Gordon mildly underperformed, but was not a miss. Even the solid recommendations Eric Decker, Antonio Brown and Julian Edelman did well.

Tight End Misses

NONE
Miller, Fleener and Clay all performed well with only Miller not catching a TD.

Kicker Misses

NONE
Even Solid Option Gould delivered for his owners.

Defense Misses

Pittsburgh Steelers
Yeah they let AP run all over them and couldn't stop anyone else in a loss either.
VERDICT: MISS

Verdict Explanations:

• Huge Miss: Far underplayed their cost. Killed your week.
• Big Miss: Underplayed their cost. Cracked the Top 20 if you were lucky.
• Miss: Slightly worse than expected. May have cracked the Top 10, but probably not.
• Moderate Miss: Didn't kill your week, but didn't win it either.
