Just want to point out both Gates and Royal had touchdowns today and Keenan continues to be invisible. BTW that's 13 TD's for Royal in the past 21 games. At some point it's more of reality than aberration.

 

Eddie Royal had 18 career TDs coming into this season in his 6 year career. Last year he had 8. 5 came in the first two games and the other 3 came in the last 14 games. So yeah, I'm going to take his 70+ game career more seriously than a 3 or 4 game TD hot streak. If you want to go ahead and buy it, good luck to you, but I'm personally not buying Eddie Royal.

I'm gonna lose by 1 for the second straight week. You can't make this s*** up.

Mother f***ing Frank Gore. All I need was for him to just get HALF of what he was projected to get, and he couldn't do it. And they used Hyde at the end of the game. I actually had a decent week, and I still can't win. 5 straight losses. Thanks Calvin Johnson and Vernon Davis.

 

One of my buddies lost tonight because of that last minute pick 6 by the 49ers. He was up by like 3 pts, but the other guy had the 49ers defense. The only thing that could cause him to lose was a defensive TD, and they got it. He got f***ed too.

2nd week in a row I won when my opponent had lowest pts in the league this week and I had 2nd lowest.

 

And I don't even go to church.

My wife has the 2nd most points in our league and is 1-5. Fantasy football sucks.

Got lucky in one of my two money leagues last night. Went in up 15 and the other guy had Gore and Dawson (K) left. They combined for 12.8 points so I unexpectedly squeaked by. Haven't had great luck the past couple years so I'll take it

Had him on my team for a Fanduel survivor tourny. I was glad they took him out because he was rushing for negative yards in the 4th. The top 5,000 entries advance to the next round, I end up being 4,985th.

Had he lost another 5 yards, I would have been out.

Wellp, wasn't able to survive very well without AP anyway, now out victor cruz and jimmy graham, I'm toast. 4th most points in league and I'm in last.

I have the most points in the league and I'm 3-3. Go figure.

2-1 this week.

 

Two 5-1 teams, one 3-3.

 

I have no idea why my 3-3 team is failing.

 

How can you lose with this roster?

 

Jay Cutler Chi - QB

Tony Romo Dal - QB

 

Dez Bryant Dal - WR

Percy Harvin Sea - WR

Sammy Watkins Buf - WR

Cordarrelle Patterson Min - WR

Dwayne Bowe KC - WR

 

C.J. Spiller Buf - RB

Andre Ellington Ari - RB

Ben Tate Cle - RB

Zac Stacy StL - RB

Trent Richardson Ind - RB

 

Vernon Davis SF - TE

Jared Cook StL - TE

 

Nick Novak SD - K

 

Buffalo - DEF

Your RBs aren't that good. That's why. You have a bunch of guys who can get you 10-20 points a week when things go their way, but you don't have a guy who will definitely get you 10-20 points a week (Jamaal Charles, Demarco Murray, Matt Forte, etc.).

It was a keeper league. I chose Dez Bryant over Marshawn Lynch. All of the other RBs were already gone by that time.

That is where I fall. I started 0-3 too and two of those weeks i had 2nd / 3rd most points in the week and lost. Nice to at least have battled back to 3-3 but still an uphill battle.

To be frank, I really don't like that roster. 3-3 seems right, I wouldn't even be surprised if you were worse.

The keeper talent in our league left me with limited options.

 

I still think that the roster will make the playoffs.

Of course this was the week that I sat Cam Newton, but at least I know that even with an optimal lineup, I would have been blown out of the water by an 0-5 team. Hard to top 140 and that's with him playing Reggie Bush in the flex.

Matt Stafford blows. I need to pick up a solid QB and WR

Same with the WRs outside of Dez. A bunch of guys who could (and should) be good but have been very disappointing so far

Vernon Davis or Dwayne Allen this week?

 

Calvin Johnson or Terrance Williams?

Davis and Williams. Calvin isn't going to play.

 

Edit: No, go with Allen. Too many pass catching options in SF and I can't trust Kaepernick at all. Luck is going to throw a ton all year long and he has a lot of faith in Allen, especially in the red zone.

Vereen/Joique/Bush/Hillman/Sankey? Pick One to compliment Gio. (PPR)

 

I have quite the stash of boom or bust RB2s.

Call FanDuel immediately. The last thing you need is for them to debit your account with a $90 overdraft and then you not find out about it until it's at a collection agency or something like that. You can screw up a lot in life and still recover, but a s***ty credit score makes life really, really, really hard.
