I benched Tom Brady but that still wouldn't have been enough, as my opponent had Sammy Watkins, & Christian McCaffrey who went for nearly 90 points between them.

I`ve got something like 156 point with a couple of games to play and still might not win this week!

You have 168.74 points, your opponent only has Alvin Kamara to still play, who needs to score minimum 34.20 points to win, & that's providing your defence doesn't score any points.

I should have this, unless Hopkins goes for 35+ points. Lucky that deFacto left Jackson on the bench, but the fact that all my skill position players (except Freeman) went in double digits is a good sign in terms of depth.

I've won my match-up with Broncos DEF still to play. My opponent is all done.

Not bad considering I didn't even have a kicker start.

Wasn't looking good at one point with Kyler having a nightmare. He showed his quality later in the game though.

Was thinking the same thing Killie --- 136 points around with Kamara left and will probably get the loss.

Rooting for a barn burner shootout (Saints 42 Texans 45 --- no Defensive touchdowns and Kamara gets in the 20's.

Nice Ekeler pick up -- made all the difference!

So glad we started Hilton and Westbrook and Andrews or it would not have been even close.

Statto Red · « **Reply #495 on:** September 9, 2019, 04:04:35 pm »

Mind you, i'm happy to get over 100 points already this year, couldn't even reach 90 points last year.

Yep, well played. We both got amazing scores. I`ve won matches before with around 80 points.

I did have to add my kicker yesterday afternoon when i saw my original one wasn`t active.

Apparently I auto joined 2 different leagues, plus the one with Tind.

Got absolutely hammered in the one league think I got 84 points, just the whole team was a dud, won my other league though, quite happy with that.

We did very well in our league, just who knew Ekeler was gonna have a stormer.

classycarra · « **Reply #498 on:** September 10, 2019, 02:22:40 pm »

Things didn't work out so well for my team this week. Hopefully a blip that doesn't require a complete change of personnel.

But relieved it happened this week given how well the defending champ Jedi did against me! Think he was on 160 points last I saw! Would have felt even worse if I had a really good week, and then still been thrashed.

Yep, he got 30 odd points & I ended up with 175. Good job Antonio Brown did his mental thing or he would have been starting instead of Ekeler.

There was a brief second last night where (running into the kicker ruined it) that I thought the Houston-New Orleans game was headed to OT with a tie score of 27-27. I hate officials who call shit like that --- clearly the kicker had faded that one a bit.

Anyhow, if the Texans would have scored a defensive touchdown or Kamara had gone off for a long touchdown, it could have gotten interesting. Probably was always gonna be a bit a shy of the 176 point total (as we were never gonna start Sanders coming back from an Achilles injury over Brandon Cooks).

Great fun. Chakan keep your teams a rockin'

Mmmmh that waiver for Phillip Dorsett might turn out better than I thought if AB isn't going to be ready for this weekend.

Thomas has gone to the Jets and this new fresh batch of shit about Brown might keep him sidelined longer.

Red Viper · « **Reply #502 on:** September 11, 2019, 12:01:21 pm »

Some very reactionary waivers gone through there.

Yeah, all the available Week 1 top scoring WR's snapped up. Danny Amendola probably wont get double figure yardage next game now I've got him

I am happy with getting Dorsett though as he will always get yards as long as he's on the pitch.

I notice DeFacto hoard(whore)ing WR's as if he can start them all. He is dead to me, even though his Balkan draft was spectacular.

And Buck, we seem to playing each other in footy this weekend in the EPL ---- small recommendation Norwich beats City 5-0 (insiders know).... Good luck, mate.

Put in for Marquise Brown, Mariotta, and Malcom Brown --- got 1 out 3 -----> needed to drop a few.

Most teams just got better.

Haha, I would love if I could line up with just one RB, and the rest WR's

I am absolutely awful at that game mate. Cant seem to get out of the Championship year after year.

After hauling in that 59 yarder from Deshaun Watson at the weekend I was tempted to get Will Fuller but Ive got enough WR's now.

I almost took Hockenson in the draft but decided against it, so I'm really just correcting my initial mistake.

classycarra · « **Reply #509 on:** September 13, 2019, 10:26:18 am »

McCaffrey got a point more than the Carolina defence that I had in my team. That would be 7 points.. Not ideal for my chances of avoiding 0-2

Got lucky though, a Tampa WR on my opponents bench scored 26

Anyone in the A league want to trade us a QB? ---- Ball Fondlers we are looking at you and Statto!!!

I regret getting cam again. He wasn't too good in the second half of last season. Should have avoided him. Let's see if rivers is a good replacement...

Chakan · « **Reply #514 on:** September 14, 2019, 05:10:13 pm »

Giving Cam one more week if he fucks it again, he hits the bricks.

Really struggling to decide my lineup today

got 6 decent WR's who will all get minutes today to fill 3 places.

The burden of choice

Was much easier last year when the bench was filled with people signed just on the off chance that they might receive a catch that week, if someone else got injured by chance

Knew I should have started Ridley this week. Eagles defence can't stop passes for love nor money.

classycarra · « **Reply #518 on:** September 16, 2019, 09:43:10 am »

I don't think I had enough of a clue what I was doing with QBs under PPR. Wentz has just bettered mine despite being picked off a few times and not rushing for all that much. Anyone want to trade me a more mobile QB?

Buck Pete · « **Reply #519 on:** September 16, 2019, 09:57:38 am »

Was about 30 points behind going into the Falcons game and needed a big one from JJ. Jones delivered but just not quite enough and Mikey has beaten me by 4 points.

Playing either (Rolls) Royce Freeman or Christian Kirk would have won it for me. AH well I'm 1-1 so could be worse.
