Nice. Don't think Luck is a bad option.
Ugh, really wanted Cecil Shorts in my line up for this week - sure enough the trade processes after the game and he's scored a respectable 16 points. I was lumbered with Rashard Jennings who scored a measly 2. The fact that I've got THREE Jacksonville players now says a lot about my team :greengrin I've resigned myself to the fact I'm fighting it out with Scott and DH for a slot in the consolation ladder!
On a brighter note, at least my team is a New England Patriot free zone with that good for nothing Brandon Lloyd out of the team!
Without all of those pesky Patriots in your team, now you've created some space to bring in a leader. A superb QB to lead those outstanding Jacksonville players to the victory they seek. And wouldn't you just know it! Mark Sanchez is available on Free Agency!Quote:

I only have 9 points so far :faf:
Tight matchup between me and DH but he still has 3 to go compared to my 2.
I fancy another loss is imminent unless Brady starts finding Welker with some frequency!
tide turning in the late hits favour now, come on jets D take out the QB :na na:
Horrible day for me yesterday. Hernandez out again. Just got rid of my backup TE. Picked the wrong WR (Lloyd vs Denarius Moore). Picked wrong Def. I guess you might as well lose in style. Lol.
Not as bad as me, god forbid AP has a bad day.Quote:

Just under a 16 point lead right now with only Dwayne Bowe to see off! Only twice has he exploded this season (against Buffalo and San Diego) so I'm hoping he has a quiet night, though Pittsburgh's pass defense is honking...
I need 4.5 points from Heath Miller against the Chiefs tonight to get a win. It's going to be pretty close, but I'm hoping that a player who has averaged 9.55 points per game will be able to get that against a defence who have conceded 6.7 points per game to tight ends....
Another poor low score from me though, how on earth does Michael Turner only score 1.5 points against the 2nd worse run defence in the NFL for fantasy points conceded and Steven Jackson scores 18.7 points against the 2nd best run defence in the NFL for fantasy points conceded. :confused::grr:

I figure he's worth a shot. He's really the Pats only deep threat. Obviously did F all for me this week.Quote:

Close run thing in the end, looks like I will end with a negative record for my first fantasy season.Quote:

Thinking it over buddy, going to sit down later with a beer and work it all out!Quote:

I have a couple of decent players but when I look at some people's rosters, they're stacked with good quality players.Quote:

Palmer is in the top 10 (9th) for QB points scored this season and he's rotting on my bench right now. I have suitable backup in Alex Smith so he's surplus to requirements.
You have a suitably concussed backup...Quote:

TSSF, thanks but no thanks. i couldnt draft a Raider just out of principle. Plus Palmer sucks :greengrin
His points are better than either of your backups but I can see why you think so considering your current starter! :greengrinQuote:

Like I said before. I ducked up. Thought the game ended after the 9th week so stuck with my team as was well out of it. If I'd realized I'd have traded my RB's.
