2-7

just a disaster this year....

lost jordy nelson and donald brown after first four minutes. Nearly pulled it out with redman. Add jones drew to my list aswell....

sob sob sob

What a vital win to stop the rot.

Going to be some finish to the season to make the playoffs. 6 teams at 5-4 & 1 at 4-5. The 3 teams at 7-2 will surely make the play-offs at this stage so looks like 7 teams fighting for 3 spots.

And I play you this week, Johnny!

Johnny_Fontane

its on then!

my rb core of isaac redman and john kuhn is going to destroy your ray rice and adrian peterson combo.

Johnny_Fontane

interesting start to the week with 34 points from two players (Luck and Shorts III)

Its certainly on now. I reckon AP could get that in the first half anyways of his matchup.

98% of people would give up with this team, but not this one!

I still have a gap at rb, so drafted in taiwan jones (0.6 fantasy points this year) and monitoring the oakland situation closely. Watch him do a David Wilson and fumble on his first carry or get stretchered off with a cruciate....

Also wtf, with Isaac Redman. Projecting 0.0 points.

Prefab Sprouter

Nice start for you! I have Shorts in 2 of my other teams, so a nice start to the week. Looks like Jones and Reece will be the Raiders running game against Baltimore so Palmer will probably air it out, I'd say. As for my team, I'm nervous about Rivers, he's not as good as he used to be and knowing my luck he'll have a stinker against the Bucs. Anyways, Game on!

Johnny_Fontane

Shorts has come up big recently alright....hes getting a huge amount of targets....great slot receiver.

I need Redman to come up big again this week!

shorts, redman, taiwan jones.....not exactly the big names I thought I'd be talking about in Week 10.

Johnny_Fontane

so redman needs to come up really big tonight! 18 points to be exact....

the blowout was taiwan jones. I had dropped chris ivory in favour of him this week....disaster....

my decision making this year has been nothing short of disgraceful

Prefab Sprouter

As a Raiders fan, I'm well aware of the shortcomings of their rushing offense!!!!

I really need the Chiefs Rushing Defense to come up big tonight........ Jaysus, having to depend on Kansas City is a big ask!

A_Sober_Paddy

Just looking through the league, the wild card spots are really open and 2 of the divisions are very open too...next 3 weeks will be very interesting to say the least

Tristram

If the Chiefs keep this up theyll keep in the race for a playoff spot!

HigginsJ

Eli, CJ2K, Marshawn Lynch n Sidney Rice all on bye this week.

dont worry, I'll still find a way to lose to you!

Tristram

I need a receiver. Trade proposals sent out. Hope to hear back from someone. Good luck to everybody this weekend!

Tristram

Holy roller derby... talk about a kick in the balls. I'm counting on other teams losing to keep my playoff dreams alive.

Tristram

Hey folks,

I'm looking to get some trade action going with the following players:

Brandon Lloyd, Dwayne Bowe, LaRod Stephens-Howling, Ryan Broyles, Nate Washington, Jake Locker, and Brandon Pettigrew.

I'm interested in WRs. Players can go individually or packaged. Please message me if you are interested!

Johnny_Fontane

gone to 3-8

took down the no.1 seed by nearly 50 points.

of my 8 losses, most I have lost by is 16 points....I havent won a single tight game yet.

theres always next year I suppose, in Division 6!

swoody

i'm 4-7 WHOOP!

whats the deal with promotion/relegation...how many go up and down? (down in my case)

wawaman

Im willing to listen to offers for James Jones (GB), Ryan Mathews (SD) & David Akers (SF) if any one fancies any of these

4 up, 4 down swoody.

Johnny_Fontane

but in theory what happens is that anyone in the 5 leagues above us who is inactive, gets chucked out of the league, so not sure anyone will go down from our league. And probably in practice about 8 people will be promoted.

Tristram

Right, I've thrown out a whole raft of trade proposals. Hopefully hear back from you guys!

Barney92

I'd be happy to do that Lloyd Smith trade after this gameweek. I meant to reject it but must have pressed accept by accident. It will mean I can't play Lloyd this week because the trade would go through after he plays this week but you can play Smith. Is there any chance of you cancelling it because I can't? If not then ah well I'll have to make do.

Hey Barney, if we ask the commish he should be able to manually do it so it counts for you this week! Win, win! I'll message on-site now and if you do the same it should be good

Tristram

I just mailed him through the site and on here

Johnny_Fontane

afraid not guys. Rules are rules and I cant change them for any one person.

I got caught with it myself recently, regarding felix jones and it cost me a win, but the trade went through too late so I was stuck.

You have to know the rules going in I'm afraid.

Barney92

Oh okay fair enough. I was only asking because I had actually wanted to reject it. If I had wanted to accept it and then only realised afterwards I would said tough luck although I suppose it is anyway. No problem. Had to try.

Okay, thanks anyway. I'll post a recommendation in the league rules/set-up thread later suggesting this be reviewed for next year.

Still a few trade proposals out there. If I sent you one please look it over and let me know what you think! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Johnny_Fontane

10 points ahead and he has macklin to play tonight with Foles at centre.

very very close. I lose all these, so no doubt, will lose this one.

It shouldnt be this close, not sure if anyone saw on thanksgiving in the washington v dallas game, last play of the game, dallas go for an onside kick, the washington defender picks the ball up and sprints towards the totally open endzone AND THEN TAKES A F**KING KNEE AT THE ONE YARD LINE

Argh....
