If I have a starter who ends up being inactive, do I automatically get points from my bench or is it just whoever is in the starters that gets points? I've got a WR doubtful for the game Tuesday morning, but no-one else is playing then on my team, so do I have to sub him before sun night or can I wait and see and then sub him for someone who has already played, or do I just take a risk?

Green Bay go to 1-1 after edging out Chicago last night.

I was sound asleep well before KO so have no idea about what type of game it was!

F: Green Bay 23-10 Chicago

There are no automatic subs, so it's a risk.

It was an enjoyable game. First quarter was all defense and I've never seen so many sacks and punts from 4th and 15+ in a match between teams with such competent offenses. Deserved win for the Packers though, Cutler was raging all the way through the match.

I dropped Cutler from my starters for last night, I had a feeling the Pack would be fired up after losing last week and im glad I did! Ive promoted RG3 for this week, go on the rookies

[Sylar]

I'm really torn for this weekend TBH.

Both Brady and Smith are at home this weekend and I expect both will win. Patriots offense was pretty hot last weekend and I expect it will be even more fired up for the home opener.

However, 49ers offense performed very well against a decent Packers defense and this week they host the Lions in San Francisco, who were shown to be very vulnerable last week against the Rams.

Also waiting til later today to set my lineup as there's a chance one of either Ryan Matthews or Rashad Mendenhall (both of whom are back to full practice) will be cleared to play for the weekend!

Ok, thanks. I guess I'll have to make sure I can get on-line on Sunday afternoon to check and sub if necessary.

tried to sign up ogletree on the waiver list but seems someone wanted him too, no names mentioned but im playing against you this week

Again, I have no idea how I (as bottom of the pile theoretically) managed to get a Waiver before you did!

Based on the projections (and last week), I'm going to need all the bloody help I can get

[Sylar]

Great start!

DC -2.00 vs 20.20 Whodatters

i'm getting owned

[Haymaker]

Pretty sure I am getting dicked this week.

[James.]

Foster doing all the donkey work for the Texans and Tate taking all the TDs Gonna play both of them next week now that Forte is out.

[Sylar]

I'd just like to issue a "**** You" to Hakeem Nicks.

He was absolutely ***** last week and this week, I have 26 points sitting on my bench.

Scrotum.

I laughed out loud at that.

I have a definite man crush on RG3. Hes a fantasy revelation

hes proving me wrong already, saying that he hasnt faced a decent D yet

[HibsMax]

Ugh. What a day. Hernandez looks like he's picked up a sore one. Pats played horribly. That's my opinion. I know the cardinals played good D but...no point whining. Lol. Some rebuilding required.

CJ Spiller must take a lot of the credit. Left Reggie Bush on the bench for one of my other fantasy teams though, schoolboy error.

[Sylar]

Ugh - so it continues - another pounding this week. Bottom of the table and no sign of anything picking up anytime soon!

Both Ryan Matthews and Rashad Mendenhall look like they're going to be playing next week, so that might help. With Hernandez getting injured yesterday, Welker also got more targets but against the Ravens next weekend in Baltimore, I don't fancy us to do much, so I'm dumping Brady and bringing in Alex Smith, as San Francisco should get some good offense against the Vikings.

More changes needed though, so back to the ol' trades...

[Sergio sledge]

Horrendous week, but unbelievably I'm still in with a chance of scraping a win. Here's hoping for a blowout win for the Falcons tonight, and that Peyton Manning has a disaster of a game for Denver.

[NOLA]

A pity the subs scores don't count overall

Unsurpisingly I'm hoping for a Peyton Manning show tonight! :-) I can't believe I'm still in with a chance of winning week 2 as well, especially with Hernandex going out before even making a contribution. I guess that's just the way the game goes.

[Sylar]

Time to ditch Welker I think. Even Edelman has gone ahead of Welker in our receiving depth chart in New England.

Very puzzling.

maybe he will shut his mouth next time he wants a contract

Maybe wouldn't ditch him just yet, not with Hernandez out. Welker should get more touches - we're a pass-happy team. Obviously since I have Ridley I want us to run the ball more, and that worked against the Titans, but I aimagine we'll keep on throwing the ball. If Edelman doesn't produce the goods then Welker needs to start getting more throws his way. I like Edelman too, he reminds me of Welker. Not sure what's going on with him and the Pats but it must be to do with the whole contract BS. Such a waste if he's being overlooked because of that.

Real glad I dropped Vick this week...

Real glad I dropped Vick this week...

Me too!

I'll take the win, but I'm going to have to improve. With that score I'd have only beaten 1 other person in the league!

[Sylar]

A spirited last rush from my team, with big nights for both McGahee and Gonzalez, but still lost out by 10.

I wasn't talking about dropping Welker from my squad, just my starting roster. I think he's an undroppable anyway, so I can't trade him out.

[HibsMax]

Undroppable? Is that a fantasy term or are you just saying you don't want to drop him?

It's a tough year so far. I have three QBs because I don't know who to stick with long term. Mannings performance last night did nothing to help me. Was that a fluke or should I be worried? I'm worried anyway. Not had much luck so far. Second last in the draft. Stud RB injured preseason. TE injured in game 2. No idea about tactics. Lol. I guess one thing you need to be able to do is know when to cut your losses and when to persist.

It's a fantasy term. If you go to "Trade" and try and add a player, there'll probably be a few players who you won't have the option to select as a trade out.

I see you are top of the waiver order again being last in the league....

At the end of last week I had position 2, so I saved using it hoping to get a good pick up this week. Now I see that the order gets re-calculated based on league position each week..... Grr

Ah well, I suppose it is better to be second in the league after two weeks than last! Although I have such a poor performing team that I could be bad for weeks because I can't pick up any decent waivers but not dropping down the league quickly due to my two lucky wins.
