We’re in free agency. Bid if you want to.

Getting my roster down to the “right 53.”

Are we just in limbo waiting for something?

Yeah, we're processing the NFL data. Check your rosters one last time while you can still get free agents.

I just cut to the right 53.....well except having a QB.

It's game time!

Still open to deals w/ Columbia Cards in league 1 or the Bentonville Golden Beavers in league 2.

Have largely converted most of my depth at this point, but I can always find solutions.

I’d trade with you but your team sucks.

I don't even have a backup QB and he's STILL better than whoever you have under center...

ROFL

You received an email mentioned that simulations will begin Sunday. It should have been Sunday, 3/20, not tomorrow.

Oh look guys Columbia plays another easy team. No wonder he makes the playoffs every year

Allen of the Jaguars to DE please, not OLB?

He actually had more snaps at OLB, but just play him at DE if you are in a 4-3. It will be fine.

Interesting.

I play a 3-4 though..........

Thanks for checking.

Johnathan Abram is a safety n0t a LB dawg

I'm drinking this afternoon too but it appears you're ahead of me.

No I'm sober as a gopher my phone just ****ing sucks

Well that sucks, x2.

Get well soon.

Try no going 0fer against me and that may help…

Man.

I go set that lineup and think "wow - this is a hell of a squad..."

Then I realize Odell Beckham, Josh Bynes and Akhello Witherspoon aren't even available yet....

Phew. Y'all better hope that random algorithm comes up snakeyes for me a LOT this year...

Jalen Ramsey
JC Jackson
Darius Slay
Mike Hilton
Bryce Callahan


Child.

How do you look up who won the title each year?

Hnnnnggg....

McLaurin, OBJ, St. Brown and Pitts.

Gdamn that's sexy. All this noise about Patrick Surtain Jr. and he wasn't even the best rookie CB in the league last year. That's my boy Eric Stokes and I can't even get him on the field. I mean maybe one of these days I'll find some use for Laramy Tunsil but probably not.

And after this year the real work begins when I can just go get my new franchise QB since you saps don't know what you're looking for.

Yeah but your game planning sucks.

I wish the game planning wouldn't reboot each season.

You didn't win it all last year right? Who did you lose to?

I didn't get any sleep.

I stayed up all night waiting for the sims to post.

Only six more to go.

Y'all got your lineups set? Sims run on Sunday at 8:00 Eastern.

1-0

I'm gonna go ahead and say that the 'Trevis Gipson: Situational Pass Rusher' experiment got off to a nice start.

6 sacks, 5 forced fumbles. Not a bad day for the new guy.

That Myles Garret fella provided alright support for him on the other side w/ 4 sacks and 3 forced fumbles of his own.

Justin Fields may not be ready for prime time. Just a thought.

Don't hear as much chirping now that you've lost to one of those dormant squads...

And I went ahead and beat the brakes off probably the 2nd best squad out there.

Have fun hanging that week 2 championship banner

I don't play in Allen Fieldhouse - no fake 'Helms Trophies' in my case.

My team sucks.

I am tanking for the year.

Do it. There's no good QBs in the draft so we can figure out compensation for Wilson

Let's make a trade now.

So can't trade during the season?

****ing communists!

How does a team with Mahomes go 0-3 who's the GM of Joplin? You suck man

Sorry guys, just can’t find to play.

Still don’t understand how you get someone other than a free agent returning kicks.

Have someone on your team that returned a decent number of kicks in the NFL.
Same for punt returners. Have someone on your team that returned a decent number of punts in the NFL.

That would be me and you're 100% correct. LMAO
I've got no idea what I'm doing. I was up 31-16 with 9 minutes left in the game yesterday and managed to give it up.

It's why I signed jakeem bgrant

If I'm playing a tough offense, I turn off that 'hurry up' shit. You can bomb a 9 point lead as quick as a hiccup in this game.

Keep the hammer down, IMO. There's just not enough benefit to trying to milk the clock.

Deonte Harris has been good for a 40 yard return every game thus far. He's been a major advantage.

6-0 through the 2 leagues w/ a couple of pretty tough matchups in League 1 that we've handled pretty easily.

Still some kinks to work with my WR rotation but it may just be that I'm simply not as strong there as I was last year (pretty likely). Fortunately we're MUCH better at running the ball this year so I can just adjust the dial a tick.

My Jc Jackson, and diggs CB combo has been insane. 25 points threw three games given up and multiple ints

Have you ever made the Super Bowl?

Nice loss DJ

Nope, broken algorithm doesn't allow me too

Yeah, that was an ugly game.

Nothing obviously terrible, Tannehill just wouldn't push the damn ball down the field. All underneath crap and a whole bunch of plays short of the sticks.

Just a lousy game by Tannehill. Defense did what it could - offense didn't answer the call.

Loser

I barely beat Corona Light who started a free agent running back and Fields. :facepalm:

I have no QB in Taylor Heinicke. I may consider playing Trevor Siemien. :facepalm:

And somehow your 3rd/4th down conversion rate is 60%

Despite Braden Smith only playing 1 game this season it appears the offensive line strategy is paying off this offense is a beast

3 in a row.

Getting my running game sorted out a little bit to try to address some of these captain checkdown sort of games from Tannehill. That's nice. Tannehill needs to knock it off with these interceptions though. 4 picks already is just not gonna fly.

Wanna talk about O-Lines though; my boys have given up 4 sacks all season. With a 15% pressure rate on 200 drop backs. There's an 8% point gap from my squad down to 2nd place. And that's with Trent Brown absent for most of the year. My guys are out there blowing the curve all to hell.

And my special teams have been crazy good. Another punt return TD and AJ Cole is good for a few 60+ yard bombs with no return every game. Wanna try to Herm ball me and my ST unit will make you pay for it. Not bad for a unit with 100% turnover from last season.

Comeback Russ we miss you

So, Herbert is an int machine. Also, Cdcox cheats his team has 36 sacks and TJ Watt has like 16 come on lol

Fired a shutout against a quality Royal Oak squad. And stayed undefeated in league 2.

Gonna tinker with the lineup a bit still. OBJ not really having much of an impact. I guess that was largely to be expected but I was hoping maybe his efforts in LA could goose his output a bit more.

Getting that running game ironed out as well.

I put my blitz rate super low to play Lamar.

A free agent RB beat me instead.

How many sacks DT have against Seattle, lol?

I think Poyer blew him away with one of my teams that suck with 9 last night, lol! Better put that D plan away until 5-22?, lol.

Where's the back patting gif? Last place schedule must have me playing garbage teams?

Vancouver V has been auto drafted since leagues inception. Seeings how I'm confident this league stays intact this time, I'll start putting more time into it.

Vancouver V in league #2? So, it was you that beat me by 1 point this week! :cuss:

Yes sir. I won last week by 3, lol. My teams aren't that good. I'm getting lucky and got whipped by a team in my conference.
We're next years afc west, lol

Nice to know you're active, makes me feel a little better, lol.

Me overpaying for the GOAT has helped. Pretty sure Sandbox mimics the nfl, lol.

Good luck my friend.

Last night we opened up inter-league play through challenge games. It is a way to gage your team against a broader array of competition. You can find more info on the Sandbox message board and the play menu under your team’s name on the main menu.

Seen that.

Bunch of teams not accepting yet!

Who wants a whupin'!?

PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/sandbox_trans_prod/views/recent_challenge_games_view.php on line 9

I'm getting this. DJ play my Sparks Red riders team

I don't see Vancouver as a squad on my list of teams to challenge.

I wouldn't mind my CoMo squad getting some cracks at those Solar West units...

Nvm DJ I figured it out. When do the challenges sim?

Well shit, I just challenged some team out of the Dolphins league so I can't accept one yet (or if I can, I don't know how).

I challenged you idk how it works though

Oh duh read the rules haha every 15 minutes

Evidently every 15 minutes on the quarter hour.

So I guess at 11?

EDIT: NM -- looks like it ran at 10:45.

You stomped me haha damn Ints

Damn - lost with Benton. I guess since Dak isn't technically in my lineup (he's out this week) they rolled with FA under center.

And it still took a literal last second TD from Mahomes to beat my boys.

Couple of stout squads...

My teams are turnover machines in sandbox challenges wtf

8-0

So how's it determined who you can challenge?

I wanted to challenge the Detroit Vipers, for instance. It's grayed out - I couldn't (even when other boxes were available). But they could challenge me (and did, fortunately).

Seems like there's some asymmetry here I don't understand.

There are rules about how many challenges you can make, so perhaps that's the issue?
