    My backs need to start doing something or its going to be a long season for me. And Moore dropping easy balls with the Raiders gave zero points for him yesterday. Another disastorous start. At least Alex Smith and Jordan Cameron are doing something and Wright now looks like a viable option if the Titans can get some momentum going. The one year I have 2 solid Tight Ends and the rest of my team is sh1t.

    I had resigned myself to another loss, 25 points behind with him having a kicker and bolden to play. luckily for me marshawn lynch deciding to go full on beast mode. Need two points from my TE tonight to win. DeAndre Hopkins had his breakout game sooner than I expected so hopefully can get him into my WR rotation now. Will help a lot.

    I may win a game with 65 points this week. I just need the Steelers D to score less than 18 points.

    Strangely though, I feel a lot better about my team even with the low score. I expect Roddy White to be back soon, I doubt Jason Witten will score so low again and 2 very tough games for Russell Wilson are out of the way

    I had/am still having a horrible week. Dropped TD from my WR's and Eddie Lacy out on the first play of the game certainly not helping

    I'm looking to trade Julius Thomas, one of top performing TEs through first two weeks, for a starting quality RB. Let me know if you're interested with a trade proposal on NFL.com

    Can you take a look at my team and let me know what would interest you. 4thandforever.

    Dropped Kendall Hunter and picked up Eddie Royal off waivers. Not bad considering their relative starts to the season and the fact that I had no back up WRs.

    I had 3 waivers in, Royal being one of them and got beaten to them all :(

    Manged to get Rodgers to fill in while Jackson is out, so happy enough with that.

    Yep. Got beaten on all claims (and I'm not doing that well...)

    So looks like a loss this week despite my opponent having 2 inactives on his team.

    I got 1.4 points combined from CJ Spiller, Dwayne Bowe and Kellen Winslow.

    Unless Wes Welker delivers 20 points this evening I'll be 0-3.

    Finally my team looks like its starting to do something fantasy this year has been nuts so many chops and changes in the league and so many under performing and injuries. Got to love fantasy and how involved it gets you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    need 23 points from manning and decker tonight. should be doable hopefully. Bam 15 points already off the first drive of the game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,002 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    McFadden with six carries for five yards so far :rolleyes:

    I need him to get 4.5 points to win and it ain't looking good!

    Edit: HE JUST THREW A 16 YARD TD PASS!!! Haha, get in!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,002 ✭✭✭f1dan


    Need 21 points from Drew Brees tonight to scrape a victory. Nervy times

    Touch league again this year

    1 team at 4-0
    5 teams at 3-1
    5 teams at 2-2
    3 teams at 1-3
    2 teams at 0-4

    One team (Fluffy Pink bunnies) has the 3rd highest score but is 1-3.
    Better than the lions is 4-0 and has the 7th highest score...


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,432 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Really can't believe I'm at 0-4. Thought I'd drafted a pretty good team, much better than the team I got promoted with last year.

    CJ Spiller, Steven Jackson, Dwayne Bowe have all been pretty terrible I guess.
    Going to be a long season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,094 ✭✭✭TO.


    I can't believe I scraped a win last night jebus it was close.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,094 ✭✭✭TO.


    Have to say I am in a fair few Fantasy leagues and a couple of paid American leagues and this Premier League is one of my favs I do every year. The competition level is high and awesome. Such a hard league to win in at times and it is testament to level of knowledge of guys on this forum.

    That is me and is tough to take, Hopefully my luck turns around.

    On another note, I am looking to trade a wr for a rb. So take a look at the fluffy pink bunnies and if anyone is interested in one of my wr's propose a trade!

    To be fair, my score would be fourth if I'd remembered to put the Colts defense (23 points) in this week instead of leaving my defense blank!

    Hey Oh Look an Eagle, sent you a trade proposal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,662 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    Listening to offers for Knowshon Moreno (and maybe Frank Gore). Both top 10 backs. Looking for a WR1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,444 ✭✭✭Dohnny Jepp


    with the news that ahmed bradshaw might be having season ending surgery, should the trade go ahead between porto jags and better than the lions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,986 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    A combined 4 points from Stevie J and Hoyer. That'll be me at 2-3 then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,002 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    The 49ers defense is nicely making up for Newton's dud performance and McFadden's absence tomorrow night.

    Should be set to go 4-1.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,264 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Need tony G to not have that great a game tonight. Ten points or less thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,650 ✭✭✭kev_s88


    who to pick up for this week, Henne or Fitzpatrick. Henne will be great for garbage time points against the broncos, but think Fitzpatrick should have a steadier all-round game. Opinions?

    Are they the only options? Maybe Mike Glennon against the woeful Giants D? Nick Foles for the Eagles if Vick is definitely out. Of the two I'd go with Henne just for garbage time. Brock Oswalter might play a half. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,650 ✭✭✭kev_s88


    Glennon and Foles are both available. But Glennon doesnt inspire confidence, and hes going up against the Eagles not the Giants. Definitely think Foles would be the better option in that game. Now it seems that the decision is gonna be between Foles and Henne....grrr!!!!!

    Hey lads there is a high chance of inactivity from me from this week for the next 3 weeks. Im going to try leave my team with an active enough roster but between a death a move stateside and a marriage and very little internet in between I could be missing a lot of time over the next 3 weeks. There is a chance I will sort my teams out but just a heads up.
