right, I said it all week we needed to see it again from him, we had dudes asking him in start/sit threads treating him like he was a WR2 with no Sanders.
Combo of Manny injury and great matchup for Sutton. This was the week he should have produced if it was going to happen.

Sutton looks like Kelvin Benjamin from the eyeball test.
Dante Pettis is the late season wr flyer to take.

pettis needs to chill out, I was hoping he'd fly under the radar in drafts next year

i cringe at anyone relying on rookie WRs come playoff time

Athletic metrics tell a different story:
6’3, 218
4.54 forty
35.5 vert
124 broad jump
6.57 cone
4.11 20 yard shuttle
11.06 60 yard shuttle
6’5, 240
4.61
32.5
119
7.33
4.34
12.08
Sutton’s agility is that of a wide receiver much smaller. Just a player looking to find his way.
Pettis is that dude tho

The injury appears to be to Hill’s right heel – not at the attachment of the Achilles (like Eric Berry) but on the bone itself.
That takes away Hill’s ability to walk normally because of the pain at heel strike in a normal gait.
It certainly hurts, and the injury to the calcaneus (heel) bone seems significant.
But he is able to outrun defenders for a 48-yard pass completion on fourth-and-nine because the injury is in the heel.
When a wide receiver runs, it is primarily on his toes as he accelerates, cuts and pushes off. These are the special skill sets that make players like Hill different, and they don't need their heel to exhibit them.
Look at the end of the above play when he goes out of bounds and tries to use his right heel to stop by planting his hind foot into the ground. He can't do so and instead limps noticeably and slams into the wall.
I have not seen any X-rays or an MRI or examined Hill. Further, there was not specific video of his injury.
However, analyzing the film of the way he walks and runs makes me believe he has a shot to play (and be effective) through the rest of this season – possibly including Thursday’s big match-up against the Chargers, who sit one game back in the AFC West.
Hill will probably limp when he walks and be in pain, but he can still play effectively.
The Chiefs will likely alter the routes he runs. Any stop-and-go or comeback routes, where he needs to plant his right heel, will be difficult. But there are plenty of double-move routes that are made on the balls of the feet. And when one sprints, the heel typically never touches the ground.

Chris Godwin got Apple'd

Eli Apple had his best performance as a Saint against the Bucs yesterday. In 46 coverage snaps, he was targeted 9 times and allowed a single catch for 21 yards. Also added 2 PBUs. His 46 snaps per completion are second-best among all CBs in Week 14.

How do yall feel about benching players when it should be a for sure win?
He is done and I'm up 4 with only Dalvin Cook left. Was just gonna bench him to make sure I get the win.

doesn't really matter, the odds of cook losing 4 points are astronomically low but if it gives you peace of mind...go for it

I'm still nervous

Dalvin would have to fumble twice and get no other positive yards doing so. At the same time, I don’t see anything wrong with benching him. It won’t change anything either way
Posted on 12/10/18 at 3:41 pm to GynoSandberg
Apple is good. Saints coverage is a lot better with him. But most people weren’t starting Godwin unless they were desperate

oach Andy Reid said Monday he expects Tyreek Hill (heel) to play Thursdsay night against the Chargers.
This aligns with Adam Schefter's Monday report that Hill is merely "day to day," and his Week 14 heel injury is "nothing serious." Hill probably won't do much or anything in practice leading up to the game, but he should be out there. Hill has historically had Chargers top CB Casey Hayward's number.

Massive fantasy game if Gordon comes back, a lot of semi teams gonna live and die by that game.
