Good luck all. Keep the trading blocks up to date.

Thanks to setanta for all the organizing so far. took time to sort out the fixtures I'd say.

So NFL.com reckons I'll finish 3-10 with a 16.8% chance of making the playoffs. Guess I'll just give up now. Projections eh?..the bane of the fantasy player!

DBIreland

They predict I'll finish 15th which is where they predicted I'd finish last season when I won it! Let's hope history repeats. Need to land another Beckham jnr on the waivers for that to happen though.

Double G Brew

Gronk had a big night!! Seems to have taken a few TD's away from Edelman!

aferru

Mathematically won this week despite two players yet to play for me. And none for my opponent.
I'm gonna crash this league like a grape!
You hear it here first...

DDC1990

Surprisingly 1-0 for the Kerry Kings.

All my gambles paid off.

James Jones, Sefarian Jenkins and Woodhead all came up trumps and covered for Bell's suspension.

I went to bed Sunday feeling pretty sick, cursing my team, full sure I was beaten but Hyde had a freak week. Hopefully he can continue in this form and not be a Jekyll and Hyde performer.

Haha i was fuming - only two things winston did last week was to ASJ - delighted having kelce doing well only to see ASJ go nuts haha

As a packers fan i was cheering on jones.... and then noticed he was on your team - bittersweet in the end! Good game tho

I'm behind 30 points before MNF.
My selected players will cover the gap and win against my opponent.
Mark my words.

Is that me you are against? Decker and Gore needing 30pts?

Well the good news is I was in the same position last Monday night but a running back put up 30 fantasy points on me so your chances are good.

DBIreland

A quiet night from Fleener should be enough to see me get the win.

Paully D

I need Vinatieri to get less than 5.56 points tonight to get the win against Roebuck. Not much hope really. Another week of getting nothing from my 1st round pick C.J. Anderson has killed me. The sooner Arian Foster is back, the better.

DDC1990

Tony Romo gone for most of the season... not good news.

Grabbed Teddy Bridgewater early enough as backup, so fingers crossed that works out.

Won this week with a measly 71 points. V. Lucky.

Raphael

6 points from Vinatieri and I can avoid going 0-2. You owe me this for putting up SFA last week, you prick!

My players know what to do tonight. Of course I won't disclose any strategy/play here.

Congrats. I need a new kicker...

Unbelievable that mate. I thought I was still half asleep when I woke and logged into fantasy football. I was extremely lucky to be honest. Lacy going off after racking up 9 yards a real saving grace.

Raphael

I ended up staying up for the first half so saw the whole ****show unfold. Colts are having a bad year...

In other news, I grabbed Janikowski off the waiver wire. At least I can predict his bad weeks, and when he's good he's great.

yeah but he's a Raider. :P

To protect the integrity of the league I am relying on guys to be honest about Inactive players. Let me know if you spot any. I try and monitor it and have noticed one possible with a team which I hope improves this weekend. Pretty much everyone has been on the ball so far. Keep it up!!

Paully D

Beat The Monstars this week (85 v 78, I still have Cobb to play) to move to 2-1.

I'm going to say it now after only 3 weeks, but C.J. Anderson is a massive bust. When I think of the players I could have actually taken at that spot.

Is there anything worse in fantasy football than a first round bust? At least if players get injured, suspended etc you know you're getting nothing from them. With the first rounder he's very, very hard to drop and you think "this will be the week" but then......

That just means more long field goal opportunities when they can't close!

DDC1990

Got my ass handed to me this week.

With Romo out, I had faith in Teddy B to bring home the bacon for me but he stuttered to make just over 2 points, with an INT and no TD's.

Buc's D was always going to be a big risk, and they were inches away from a Fumble Return for a TD, but the bollox dropped it and Texans recovered.

Still got pretty pounded irrespective of how James Jones plays tonight. TBH hope he's shíte and saves his mojo for some other week when I have a chance.

Ya you got screwed by the cards d and Joseph Randell didn't expect that out of them myself to be honest

DBIreland

I need a quite night from Jaamal Charles if I am to get the victory. Not that I deserve it, I have been Fantasy Football kryptonite this week. No rushing or receiving TD's from my team this week but 3 players with TD's on my bench. I picked up two players on waivers this week and neither got a TD but BOTH players I dropped did get TD's! Awful week but still could win if Charles gets less than 13.5 points which he hasn't done this season.

I need a great night from Jaamal Charles...13.5 points, at least, will do!

At some point KC will need to get their WR's scoring, hopefully tonight is the night.
If Charles gets a TD he will go over the 13.5 you need.
Either way a pretty low score is going to win our game.

Between them they nearly outscored my whole team.

Randall was a sweet pick.

You have no idea how much it hurt to have two Cowboys on my team
