Benglas defense got me (-3) and I lost by 1.6 points. Great stuff

Woof, that sucks...

I was fortunate to go against Mark Ingram (-1.5) in two leagues if I'm not mistaken...

I'm up 2 points going into MNF and my opponent only has one player left, a kicker. And I didn't start a defense which is our biggest position in this league. Argh.

Lost by 5. Not impressed.

I was able to snag Matt Bryant in FA a couple of weeks ago, and the dude is easily the #1 kicker in fantasy right now. Gets a ton of opportunities, is very accurate, etc. I have Matt Ryan too, so when drives stall, it's almost as good as a touchdown.

Post by **shafnutz05** » Thu Nov 03, 2016 9:47 pm

Well, WRs vulturing touchdowns from Matt Ryan on end arounds is pretty annoying.

Post by **shafnutz05** » Thu Nov 03, 2016 11:54 pm

Matt Bryant with 18 FP, Ryan with 36. Crazy that Ryan went undrafted in our league (granted, he sucked last year).

Mike Evans is singlehandedly keeping my team with a glimmer of hope for playoffs. I'm in desperate need of a RB and this person in my league has stockpiled all the backup RB's that stepped up after injuries...she has Michael, Ware, drafted Jeremy Hill who she regularly sits, and through some Nostradamus-like effort picked up Charcandrick West the day before the Chiefs game Ware went down. She's told me numerous times she wanted Evans so I offered a package of Evans and Corey Coleman since he'll be back next week for Ware straight up last week (whoops on her) and she in return offered me Hill, who 20% of games will put up 25 pts, the other 80% will get you 3...and Emmanuel Sanders. I can't even...

Just traded Mike Wallace and Thomas Rawls for Char West. I have Spencer Ware. I'm okay with this.

My sister in law dropped West for the Pittsburgh defense yesterday

It's one of the more astounding moves I've seen in my FF career

Can I get a stat correction plz?

I sat mariota for big Ben and lost by a quarter of a point. Time to start drinking

Of course Melvin Gordon looks like an NFL player the week I play him. The guys is awful. Oh well knew I didn't really have a shot this week with Brady, Gronk, AJ, and Miller on bye.

Post by **Craig** » Sun Nov 06, 2016 8:27 pm

I dont think there is a single week this season that he hasnt either had a td or 100 yards. Great fantasy rb this year.

Post by **mikey** » Sun Nov 06, 2016 8:35 pm

Yeah, and he was a super prospect coming out...probably the most improved player from his rookie season, in part, because of opportunity...what's his ass got hurt, so Gordon was actually able to get RZ carries...because of his talent, he was able to take advantage of it...I can't imagine he's not a top-5 fantasy RB all season in any format, and probably much closer to 1.

Post by **mac5155** » Sun Nov 06, 2016 9:00 pm

Yeah, I played him this week too. That last run he had lost my week. Thanks Obama

Post by **Pavel Bure** » Sun Nov 06, 2016 9:23 pm

Oh no he's been great for fantasy this year. There have been many (didn't actually look how many) games of 40 yards and 2 TDs though.

Bitter pill as well cause I traded him W4 but got Gronk and J Stew for him. Didn't think there was any way he kept up that production. He's high round bust for next year.

Post by **mikey** » Sun Nov 06, 2016 9:35 pm

Well, no one is denying that the Chargers and their o-line are bad...the only advantage Gordon has on Gurley, who has not been useful this year, is that Gordon has a QB that belongs in the NFL so there's always that chance of an accurate pass...

Post by **mac5155** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 9:42 am

I dont get why Gurley doesn't get 25 touches a game. The Rams will go entire 8-10 play series with him getting 1 touch.

lol, I've been a frustrated Gurley owner all season. It won't change.

Thank God for Latavius Murray's performance last night. I needed 19 points out of a combination of Booker, Crabtree, and Murray, and I sure wasn't getting it from the first two.

I'm really down on Booker....I was excited because I thought I might have had an RB1 fall into my lap, but he looks terrible.

Post by **Beveridge** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 2:37 pm

Does your jinx work if you own the player? Let me know if you drop him because then the stock sky rockets.

Post by **mikey** » Mon Nov 07, 2016 2:42 pm

Huh? Booker looks pretty good to me...I had him rated pretty high on my 2016 RB list...

On a related note, I might get my first loss across any of my three leagues in a number of weeks...4 maybe? 5?

Post by **Pavel Bure** » Mon Nov 14, 2016 8:03 pm

Damn you patriots. Damn you Brady and as a result damn you Gronk.
