40.50 from Rawls. Holy crap!

Yeah I think you got me this week.

I hope, it'll be nice to avenge the week 2 loss.

Down 0.18 going into Monday, and it's literally Rob Gronkowski vs. Charles Clay. I like the matchup, but this game is way too close for my comfort. Benching Brown for his lack of production seems to have come back to bite me hard.

Holy Crap with this weeks games:

UW wins for the second time because Brady can't get more than 22.59 points against Buffalo, which would have been nearly 7 point lower than his season low (he score 21). Total difference is 1.5 points.

Harold and I end our game with both our TEs way under performing - with me edging him by 3.12 points. I also lead the league in scoring with 150.11 points, which is lower than my season average, and is only significant because I am currently 6th in scoring, and Harold was #2.

Bullpen is the 3rd team to win a tight game, 4.28 points over Lester Hayes. Bullpen was the third highest scorer this week, while Lester was fourth.

Darren McFadden was the only player on Logic's team to remember how to play football, but with Lester's loss, Lethal stays @ #2. Despite his slow start, Sherman wins his 4th in the last 5 weeks.

Jimmy Rustlers stays at #1 with Harold's loss after his team dropped a dud.

Finally, every team with the worse record this week won.

A dud? That's generous assuming you're referring to my team. I'd go with "hot steamy pile of dog shit".

Fantasy dilemma

Have two W/R spots currently filled with Allen Hurns (Jags WR) and Stevie Johnson (Chargers WR)

I have Lafell on the bench who I'm itching to start now that Amendola is out and he's going to be Brady's top guy outside of Gronk

Only problem is Lafell is facing Denver's secondary and Hurns and S. Johnson has favorable match ups. Hurns has a proven track record this year. Stevie not so much. Thinking of benching Stevie for Lafell.

Would you guys do it?

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Tough call, I'd go Hurns and Lafell but who knows what is right.

 

[blstoker]

If the Rams can't pull a passing game out of somewhere - Todd Gurley's year as a top fantasy RB is over.

 

[blstoker]

I hate Tavon Austin.

He averages 10.4 points when I play him

17+ (through the first half today) when I don't.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Just noticed Uhsplit had Stafford on his bench...ouch!

Boy we got a real barn burner going in our match-up.

Looks like the dumpster fire for Jimmy Rustlers last week is still burning this week

I got on last night and thought "Hey, Jeremy Maclin hasn't had more than 4 catches or more than 48 yards in over a month, better bench him for James White. His touches are sure to go up a bit since Amendola is out".

I still stand by the logic, just got unlucky.

Also doesn't help when Forte splits his carries with Langford snatching the TD. Then Chris Johnson gets hurt, DT puts up a goose egg through 2 and a half quarters, and Big Ben gets pulled with 2 minutes left and 3 timeouts against the Seahawks' Swiss cheese pass D. Thought for sure Roethlisberger was good for a pass TD before that game got over. I made the right call starting Big Ben over Bortles, but that genius decision only netted me an extra 0.08 points.

At least I'm only down 2 right now.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Funny thing Cave, I wanted to pick up White but you beat me to him. I really thought he was going to see some touches today.

Don't worry, I've had Baldwin on the bench all three games the last 3 weeks and he blew up today. Luckily I won't need him to win, but Baldwin has been insane the last 3 weeks for Seattle

I went for him as soon as Lewis went down. I think LL grabbed Bolden first. He would have been a decent start last week just because of the TD's but they came on what? Four touches or something?

Man my RB's are hurting right now. Forte and Langford are going to split the rest of the year, Miller is bipolar as shit, and Chris Johnson is hurt. Almost gotta hope Ryan Matthews gets healthy and Murray goes down.

I'm sure he'll get more looks with Jimmy out now too. Should be a solid WR3 for you the rest of the year at the very least.

I'm loaded right now.

Any given week 4 of these guys score solid mid teens to 20s, it's just figuring out which ones will do it....

My WRs HAD been pretty solid. Just not so much lately.
