Terrible day for me. Rudi Jonson and Lendale white rising up screwed me, along with faggy delhomme.


Need Barber, Owens, and Gates to outscore Chambers and witten by 30.

9/21/2008 7:14:28 PM

Thank you Big Ben for your -1 point today. Somehow, I still lead by 7. I have Witten tonight, and hopefully LT tomorrow, going against Antonio Gates.

9/21/2008 7:39:36 PM

man, my teams really shit the bed for me today

Earnest Graham and Braylon Edwards can eat my ass. Luckily Addai and Brees bailed me out in one league

the other league, it was supposed to be a battle between the 1st and 2nd (me) place teams, but Big Ben and Braylon laid eggs, Westbrook got hurt, and New England's defense got me -4 points. He had Burner Turner and Lynch

9/21/2008 7:49:54 PM

this is bullshit. im starting felix jones and marion barber from now on.

9/21/2008 9:25:54 PM

Between he and Moss, one of my teams didn't have a chance.

And why can't Chris Johnson ever get a TD run?

One of my teams I have both Barber and Jones and I started them both.

9/21/2008 10:31:35 PM

nice fumble barber

9/21/2008 11:08:31 PM

you know what's irritating about fantasy football?


putting up the 2nd highest weekly score in your league, while having ronnie brown go bananas on the bench, and still being down by ~20 against the guy who will never have this same week again.


Current Highest weekly scores:

144
127 <- me
105
98
etc

Still got a shot though, even though it's a slim chance... Vincent Jackson needs to have a huge game

Had i started brown over another rb i'd be at 148. but I'm not starting him over m. lynch or m. forte given the way this season has gone. (yeah we've got a wonky scoring system and no flex for this league)

9/22/2008 7:37:51 AM

should i drop pennington or k. collins for griese? he put up some good points this week even with the 3 INTS

9/22/2008 7:56:09 AM

only if you are picking him up from free agency in the hopes of trading him to some sucker for a decent player.

9/22/2008 8:05:56 AM

Roethlisburger killed me this weekend.

9/22/2008 8:32:02 AM

^ha, yeah. I started Garrard over him. He only got 7.7 (low for a QB), but it sure beat roflsburger's -9.6

9/22/2008 8:42:51 AM

i'm going to have to drop delhomme if he doesn't turn it around. his lack of production cost me.

9/22/2008 8:59:55 AM

Yeah I started Jake over M. Ryan, which hurt. And starting Roy Williams over L. Coles is probably going to hurt too.

Which brings me to tonight's game, haha, where I have quite a few players involved and I'm trying to make a comeback.

Chambers or Coles?
LT or T. Jones?
(started K. Smith in my other spot in case LT didn't play, gonna kick myself if both have huge games and I lose)

9/22/2008 9:45:30 AM

Ok, trade offer to me:

I get Ronnie Brown and Eddie Royal, he gets Ryan Grant and Jerry Porter. I'm tired of waiting on Grant to come around, and that line may never get him running room, so I think I'm gonna take it.

Thoughts? Can Brown have a good year...looks like he'll be the starter from now on, right?

9/22/2008 11:55:33 AM

Brown was a great buy low guy before this week, but now he's a little more costly. Last year Brown was a GREAT fantasy back before his injury, so I think he could bounce back and be a solid top 10 guy this year even with losing touches to Ricky. Brown's value only goes up with better play from Pennington. He won't have many 5 TD games but I think he's a solid back. But do take notice they ran a lot of trick plays yesterday, not sure if they'll keep that up.

I think I would take that one. Grant is struggling with this injury and losing touches to Brandon Jackson. But then again I wasn't high on Grant before the season started, so maybe it's just a bias or something.

9/22/2008 12:26:11 PM

Personally I think the only reason Brown had his game was due to the patriots having spent absolutely no time planning their defense, and only concentrating on how they could blow the dolphins out with Cassel. I think Grant will come around, he seemed to be running better last night and it should only improve.

9/22/2008 12:52:04 PM

all that may be true, but I think that's still a great deal even after Ronnie Brown's great week. Eddie royal is a solid #2 guy on arguably the most explosive passing offense around. Brown had a great year last year before the injury and now that he is starting will be clearly better than grant.

9/22/2008 1:55:09 PM

I'm not buying into Royal yet. Despite owning him he hasn't really done all that much post Marshall. I'm hoping he starts playing more into the offense but not including the last 2 minutes of the SD game he really hasn't done all that much. Although I guess compared to Porters production last year he should outdo him.

9/22/2008 2:02:10 PM

Someone just proposed this trade to me...it seems fair, and possibly even better for me...but I would be giving up my best WR, which always makes things tricky:

I GIVE:
Brett Favre
Andre Johnson
Chris Cooley

I GET:
Aaron Rodgers
Marvin Harrison
Kellen Winslow

I see the QB/TE trade as being a slight upgrade for me on both, with obviously a huge downgrade at WR. The thing that makes it so tempting though, is the probability of Andre getting hurt...WHAT DO I DO?!

9/22/2008 4:39:31 PM

Cleveland and Cincinnati are single handedly killing me this season.

9/22/2008 4:40:36 PM

wait until after tonight to see how Favre does against the Chargers

9/22/2008 4:41:09 PM

wow, you give chris cooley and then get him back in the same deal? you should be a GM

9/22/2008 4:41:12 PM

So my Welker/Royal trade for Andre Johnson didn't go through, after this weekend I offered Marvin Harrison/Royal for Johnson and he accepted. I'm still liking it.. agreed?

9/22/2008 7:04:39 PM

attn phlip rivers: please throw 4 touchdown passes to antonio gates.

^yes

Alright pick two RB:

Earnest Graham vs. GB
Felix Jones vs. Was
LenDale White vs. Min
Chris Perry vs. Cle

9/23/2008 9:57:40 AM

Pick 2 RBs
Fortunately Chris Perry & Jonathan Stewart have been surprises.

Steven Jackson vs Buffalo
Clinton Portis @ Dallas
Chris Perry vs Cleveland
Jonathan Stewart vs Atlanta

9/23/2008 11:17:54 AM

I'd go Perry and Portis.

9/23/2008 11:24:06 AM

Chris Perry is still unsigned. Good pick-up at RB?

My RBs are:

Adrian Peterson
Jonathon Stewart
Michael Bush
Laurence Maroney (bye this week)
Sammy Morris (bye this week)

*EDIT: Well I picked him up and dropped Bush. Going with Peterson and Perry this week. Good? Bad?

Graham and Perry

I don't really have any questions this week...I'm pretty much playing who I can because of bye weeks...Reggie Wayne and Plax both have byes? I guess that means I'll play Donald Driver and Eddie Royal

I did pick up Denver's defense

they are playing the Chiefs though

[Edited on September 23, 2008 at 12:22 PM. Reason : .]

9/23/2008 12:20:27 PM

you should be fine then, the Chiefs are terrible

and are you sure about Graham? He laid an egg for me last week, something like 12 carries for 16 yards - no receptions or TDs.

LenDale White and Felix Jones have both had good seasons so far ~ 10 points a week

9/23/2008 12:55:28 PM

remember that graham played the bears last week who have a great run D. I'd expect he will have an easier time this sunday.

You can't go terribly wrong with any of those guys though.

9/23/2008 1:18:37 PM

NFL NETWORK IS REPORTING STEELERS RB WILLIE PARKER WILL MISS WEEK 4 DUE TO A SPRAINED KNEE

There is no legitimate backup for him right now, so look elsewhere.

[Edited on September 23, 2008 at 1:20 PM. Reason : UPDATE]

9/23/2008 1:20:24 PM

well i'll be starting mendenhall

he might not break 100 yards, but he'll have at least a touchdown.

9/23/2008 1:37:01 PM

I severely doubt anybody even has him, but Bulger has been benched in favor for Trent Green this week.

9/23/2008 1:40:23 PM

DROD I don't know how successful Lendale will be against Minnesota's run defense...they are ballin...Packers have a pretty good defense but MB3 ran all over them on Sunday night

9/23/2008 2:10:11 PM

yeah, I'm just pissed about how shitty Graham and the Bucs run game was last week. It seems like the Bucs like using Warrick Dunn a lot.

9/23/2008 2:22:28 PM

i just went into my trading block and for players available I put Brees, Plax, R.Wayne and Marshawn, and for Stats Wanted I put Fumbles Lost and FGs 0-19 yards

9/23/2008 2:49:41 PM

I could use another QB. McNabb is my starter but he might not last the year.

Should I pick up Brady Quinn or Trent Green?

9/23/2008 3:29:40 PM

well between those two only one has been named the starter so far so green. if quinn gets named the starter then grab him

9/23/2008 4:02:55 PM

do i really start both chad johnson and chris perry this week? i kinda have to with my situation, but 2 bengals on one fantasy team?

other option at WR is bernard berrian. but the vike's got the titans and ocho cinco has the browns. k-rob is my only other WR and he's on a bye week. FA WR's are pretty thin -- josh reed, chansi stuckey, darrell jackson, stokley, devery henderson...?

other options at RB are ryan grant, michael bush and ray rice because of addai's bye week.... right now i have perry and jon stewart starting.

do i keep both bengals in the lineup?

[Edited on September 23, 2008 at 5:50 PM. Reason : ]

9/23/2008 5:50:10 PM

fantasy football fans everywhere are hoping the Cin Cle game is a scorefest like last year to get guys like Braylon and Ocho to break the fuck out their slump

9/23/2008 6:19:22 PM

Okay, so Plaxico has a bye, so which two WRs should I start alongside T.O.?

DeSean Jackson @ Chi
Chansi Stuckey vs. Ari
Vincent Jackson @ Oak

Vincent Jackson is probably gonna see DeAngelo Hall most of the game, isn't he? And DeAngelo gets burned like crazy.

9/23/2008 6:43:32 PM

I've got some bye weeks on my team for this weeks matchup. I have a few questions. I have to start Chris Perry in place of Brandon Jacobs this week. I'll also be starting Matt Forte. After that I have a flex spot and two WR spots. I'm definitely playing Fitzgerald at WR but then I have to choose between Holt, B. Edwards, and Ryan Grant. Which two should I play?

9/23/2008 6:56:44 PM

rashard mendenhall is available in one of my leagues. should i take on a flyer on him against baltimore? my backs are peterson, thomas jones, chris perry, laurence maroney, and steve slaton. i've got peterson and jones as starters, with the flex spot usually rotating depending on matchups

9/23/2008 7:29:45 PM

If you had to keep for the rest of the season....

Bo Scaife or Zach Miller

Prater or Suisham

9/23/2008 7:46:38 PM

scaife and prater.... i think

9/23/2008 9:23:21 PM

unknowingly i dropped mendenhall for r. johnson yesterday (i read the game summary and it didn't mention parker getting injured, plus mendenhall has been useless the first 3 weeks)

so now im waiting for him to come off waivers so i can switch them back... but im assuming someone else will grab him first.

[Edited on September 23, 2008 at 9:48 PM. Reason : .]

9/23/2008 9:47:33 PM

I don't think it has clicked for mendenhall, and baltimore run defense is stout.
