Dak just doesn't look for him. 4 targets for your best receiver against the Browns is abysmal.

Cole Beasley has been a much better fantasy option at this point all year. I benched him all but one game (last weeks where he was bad except for garbage time OT points) and he's been very good in PPR.

I had Elliot, Gordon, and Murray all combine for 83 points. 83 beats a handful of teams in our league. Unfortunately for me, I had Murray (30) on my bench. I'm down by 7.6 going in to tomorrow with Baldwin and Seahawks D left, to his 0 remaining. I should take this victory as long as the Bills offense doesn't go off and put up 40+.

 

If I can get a win on the week I had Brady and Gronk on BYE, I'll be pretty delighted.

Wow denver looked bad yesterday.

 

Booker really needs to step it up. Thank god Bibbs doesn't have the frame to be an every-down back.

Here we go again, I was approached for another trade. This time I am offered Landry for Latavius Murray. I feel like I should do it, considering Murray is just my flex player, and I have Crowell to flex instead, but Murray going off for 200 yards and 3 TD kind of makes me wonder if I can sell his value even higher.

 

Or should I just take Landry and run before he changes his mind?

So I was up by about 36 going up against Jimmy Graham. Felt pretty confident. Then Graham just went off. If Buffalo would've scored and Seattle got the ball back, I would've lost. Instead, I won by .51 :)

Fantasy football f***ing sucks.

 

I lost by .4 last week when the Bears ran the clock out and Asiata couldn't get anymore touches. I lose by .6 this week when Shady couldn't get 2 f***ing points in the 4th quarter.

Guy in our league has Andrew Luck. Lost by 0.2 points. Last three plays of the game, Luck kneels for the win, and they count as -1 rushing yards each time, or -0.1 points.

I think I won the same way. Went into last night with a 26.30 point lead over Russell Wilson. Woke up with Wilson scoring 26.28 and I had a .02 point victory. Looking at the box score, Wilson took a knee at the end, gotta think that was the difference.

 

I love fantasy football.

Oh damn I won. Did not think Tyrod Taylor would have a good game and he overcame my 23 pt deficit.

Oh damn I won. Russell Wilson out of no where!

Oh damn i lost. 1 yard and 1 TD for Michael. This season blows chunks.

At this moment, this is by far the best Fantasy season I've ever had. I currently have the most points in 3 of my 4 leagues, would be in the playoffs in all 4 if the season ended today and I've already won $140 back in my main league. Yay me(for now)!

Trade accepted. Latavius Murray for Jarvis Landry.

Picked up Rams D and DuJuan Harris on waivers. I think I am going to play both.

IIRC, you're in a standard league. That's a bad trade. Miami has shifted to a run heavy philosophy and Landry's production is way down. His strength was catching 7-9 balls for 90-100 yards, but he doesn't score touchdowns and now hes more in the neighborhood of 4-5 catches for 60-70 yards. Meanwhile Murray is the lead back in a high powered offense and gets the bulk of the goaline work. You just traded a mid RB2 for a WR3. Unless you were stacked at RB, this was a bad trade. Granted, Miami has acknowledged they need to get the ball to Landry more but he still is a risky play for standard leagues.

I traded him because my other RBs are Elliot, Gordon, Montgomery, Crowell, Bernard, and Dujuan Harris. My best WR is Doug Baldwin. Traded from a strength to help my weakness.

Can I get some opinions guys, I'm not sure whether to start D.Walker or Zack Miller at TE this week. Both excellent matchups. Delanie is the safe start against GB but Miller had a 10 targets last week and TB sucks through the air. thought?

Matt Forte vs LA

Devontae Booker @ NO

 

Which one would you guys start on Sunday? Booker has the juicy matchup, but Bibbs might be taking a fair share of reps himself and Forte is more consistent. But man New Orleans D is awful..

Forte. I'm not buying the Bibbs crap and Booker is going to have a good game. I just think Fortes will be better

 

I need to choose one for FLEX:

 

D. Booker, R. Cobb, or G. Bernard

 

My WR: OBJ/Julio

My RB: Freeman/Forte

Edited by staxx

1st and goal from the 1 yard line and the Rams give the ball to Benny Cunningham who fumbles. I f***ing hate Jeff Fisher.

Woof, Ezekiel Elliot. :o

 

Totally saved my Brady/Gronk dud for now. Up 10 points, I have Gio Bernard versus his Odell Beckham. I'm a little nervous.

I had a pretty decent lead until Antonio Brown happened.. (I was playing against him and Nelson + Robinson who killed me) I have A.J. Green and OBJ tonight down 37.. I need at least 19 from both of them to win which is doable. Needless to say, I'm hoping tonight's game is a shootout. Hopefully the recent OBJ pickup does me well.

Oh, forgot to mention I won $20 tonight on Fanduel, for a $2 entry. I finished 3rd out of 100.

 

And while that sounds really good, I was in FIRST and in line to win $50 until that last meaningless completion by Rothlisberger as time expired in the Cowboys game. That pass cost me $30. :(

I started Miller over Walker and could not have been more wrong. FML and he has benard left while I have a 5.5pt lead. I'm toast.
