    You peeking in my brain lol I did that in addition to the Ford claim. I also checked on Akers but he is on someone's roster as I expected him to be.

    I got Ford in zero leagues my own fault in the league I had Chubb I considered picking him up last week served me right for not doing so. I did nab Hunt in that league. Currently I'm in first place over all 2-0 most points scored now all my hopes are on the bears getting their shit together and Hebert becoming a decent back my other current options are Hunt, Breida (added him this week) or Miller with the saints. My season might be over in that one.

    Ok, let me put it out there. Fields is my fantasy QB. Should I start him this week or take a flier on Minshew.

    There's not much out there in my league and I feel like Fields is a sit vs KC

    Tough call, Personally I’d go Minshew in that situation. I think he has a lower floor. The good, the Colts will be trying to keep up with the Ravens. Minshew will get his chances. The bad, Ravens defense is better than expected this year. The ugly, it’s forecast to rain the entire game.

    but the best news for the Minshew is that the Ravens are really banged up and might miss as many as 10 starters. Even half that, considering some are in the defensive backfield, bodes well for Minshew.

    I benched fields for stafford in one of my leagues which likely means fields will go iff this weekend.

    Outside of Tua and Mahomes if they scored high today they were likely on my bench :lol:

    Sadly I did not remain unbeaten in the 16 team league and I can blame my RB spot for the loss Herbert got me a whopping 4.2 points had I started Breida I would have won but I did not expect much of him going against SF with 2 linemen out. Granted he only got 9.7 but that would have got me the win by the slimmest of margins

    You still have a chance to beat me if the safety from Seattle can somehow score 23 points

    For the life of me, I can not understand the poor decisions I make, the bad luck and craziness that comes with fantasy football. I benched George Kittle in the WDF basically because he has completely sucked and has accounted for hardly any points through 4 weeks, so what does he do?... catches 3 passes, all TD's. Ive been hanging with Jacobs and he has been a bust except for last week.

    Its all nerve-racking, maddening, frustrating and down right pisses me off most of the time... but I love the hell out of it! I must be a fantasy glutton for punishment or have a sickly mental illness when it come to football. Oh well, cant help meself.

    Ima step away from the ledge and regroup for next weeks beat-down... a vicious cycle.

    I put Anthony Richardson in the lineup twice and he got injured and left early both times. Then I take him out of the lineup and he goes off

    My biggest question is how do you know what to do with your lineup? Conventional wisdom says Richardson would be able to score more fantasy points against the Titans than Purdy against a staunch cowboy defense. Well Richardson got 4 whole points before leaving the game with injuries and Purdy went off for 36 points. I don’t want to hear any talking heads going off about how much they love the cowboys and Parsons again. Right now TJ Watt is pulling away from the pack for DPOY. Yet I’m being told that parsons and Garrett are better pass rushers. Parsons can’t carry Watts jock strap and they need to stop kissing his ass when overating him.

    I feel your frustration Will.
    I had the good fortune this week in both L4SN and NADL to be facing the highest scoring team in the league.
    One of them is 0-4 but magically pacing the league now that I’m the opponent.

    That’s fantasy for you.

    I’m doing better elsewhere, thankfully. But every time I convince myself on FleaFlicker this season that I can make a run this season, I get a solid left across the face.

    Was it Aikman and Buck? I’ve hated them so long. But you almost can’t fault a lifetime Cowboy whose job is to fill dead air during a blowout for riding Parsons a bit. Guy is a dynamic player. Agree Watt is easily the big dog right now though.
    Neither him nor J.J. even seem human
