It's like, I've scored 467 points and I'm 1-3. In my other league, same scoring system and everything, I've scored 425 points, I'm in first place and 4-0.

RCAChainGang · 09-30-2012, 11:32 PM

451 against me, but only 391 for me. I have Forte and Romo tomorrow though. I hope Forte plays. Was pretty ballzy on my part. I'm down 22 this week and he has no players for tomorrow.

Then next week I have Doug Martin on a bye. Not sure what to do at RB. I have Andre Brown and I'm hoping to snag Jackie Battle. Pretty depressing week 5. :/

Edit: I'm 1-2 and I'm down 22 points with Tony Romo and Matt Forte left. Might be 1-4.

Im down by 3.66 because leshoure and Julio pretty much shat the bed this week and I have DeMarco Murray. The other kid has Gould...

Bert Macklin · 09-30-2012, 11:56 PM

I have LeShoure and he went against a to 3 run defense. He'll bounce back.

Julio just didn't get the targets.

and i sat colston, but i am at least happy that he did well because now i know he isn't a turd.

Unless Austin gets 50 points I am going to win this week... YAY!

Bert Macklin · 10-01-2012, 09:50 AM

I need Marshall to not get 21.9 points and I win.

Also is Malcolm Floyd for Torrey Smith fair out would it take a little more to get smith?

I should say the guy with Smith is sitting him and paying nate Washington.

FlyingElvis · 10-01-2012, 11:06 AM

I'm staring at first to worst in one league as the defending champ. Hartline on the bench for a monster day while Maclin put up one ******* point against the ruination that is the Giants defensive backfield.

I know how you feel man... Last season I shattered the record books of my league. I put up the most points any one had put up in a single season by 200+ points. I had the most weeks with high scores, longest winning streak. Tied for most wins and I lost in the championship game because Forte and FJax got hurt and Rogers was pulled early.

This year I am 1-3. Through the first 2 weeks I think I scored a combined 120-150 points and in the last 2 weeks I have scored 130 each week... Here's hoping for a turn around.

FlyingElvis · 10-01-2012, 11:43 AM

I've got one of those massively underperforming teams. Jordy, Maclin, Colston, Witten & Rivers are the biggest offenders. I can't get a week where they each have decent games.

Brutal. At least it paid for itself with my first year win. lol

If I do Schaub and DMC for AJ Green and J-Stew how does that look?

What is the rest of your roster look like?

Grizzlegom · 10-01-2012, 01:54 PM

I feel your pain FE and Cain. I'm just annoyed because in this league I'm 1-3 despite having the most overall points. Every week I play a team that just explodes. Its a standard scoring league where 100 points typically gets you a win and my opponents are averaging 130 points against me while I'm averaging about 110 points. Its maddening.

Bert Macklin · 10-01-2012, 01:55 PM

So this guy has SJax and Torrey Smith on his bench. So does Malcolm Floyd and cj Spiller for those 2 sound fair?

Essentially, I have a lot of QBs and I'm better at RB than I am at WR. I'm just more curious if that's fair enough value.

I'd say so. But I'd probably wait until Spiller has a semi-decent game before trading him. You could probably get more for him.

I don't like Stew for DMC.

Looks fine to me. Green is a beast every week and he's the only one on that list we can say that about. We knew McFadden could blow up for huge numbers. We just didn't realize that he'd have to blow up for big plays to reach them. He's a scrub unless he breaks a big one and that's rough. If you have good RBs you can start this move takes the headache that is McFadden out of the picture in exchange for a stud at WR where you are weak. If you have lots of QBs it makes Schaub irrelevant (even though I still believe he already was.) Do it.

Sure. Though I don't see any reason for the Jackson owner to make that trade. Spiller and Jackson are fairly equal because Fred Jackson is not going away. Spiller and Fred are looking like the return of the RBBC mess in Buffalo.

ImBrotherCain · 10-01-2012, 02:36 PM

I am hitting a snag for the upcoming week. I have VJax and LeShoure on bye weeks.

That leaves me with SJax and Williams as my remaining HBs
and
Britt and Avery for WRs

I need one HB and 1 Flex

You need two from those 4 or you need two more because those 4 are already starting?

Two from them

Docta · 10-01-2012, 03:14 PM

Avery and SJax

Avery's a great option now that Collie's out.

FlyingElvis · 10-01-2012, 03:15 PM

Jackson's matchup sucks, but I'd still go with the RBs. Williams & Avery if you're feeling particularly adventurous. The Rams aren't exactly a dominant run D so Williams is a nice start getting all the touches against them.

Avery comes off a bye week with Collie out of the picture and a DST that sucks against weak competitors, let alone the Packers. I'd bet there'll be plenty of throwing in that game.

fenikz · 10-01-2012, 06:49 PM

8 Team - Non PPR - QB RB RB WR WR WR TE W/R/T D/ST K - $ League

I'm currently 4-0

QB E Manning
WR C Johnson(bye), V Cruz, T Smith, M Colston, D Moore(bye)
RB J Charles, D McFadden(bye), R Mathews, C Spiller, F Jackson, P Hillis
TE T Gonzalez
D/ST Texans
K D Akers

1. Should I use my #2 waiver on Jackie Battle and start both him and Mathews vs a terrible Saints defense?
2. Should I keep my waiver position and start one of Fred Jackson or CJ Spiller vs the 49ers?
3. Keep my waiver position and try for what ever is left over after claims?

Bulldogs · 10-01-2012, 07:11 PM

Something tells me Steven Jackson has a good game soon. I bought him dirt cheap two weeks back and haven't played him yet, but I might end up starting him as my flex this week over Denarius Moore and Leonard Hankerson. He's bound to score a TD soon and the Cardinals are due for a loss.
