Reasons Fantasy Football Made Me Want to Punch a Baby This Week

Arian Foster owners in 3...2...1...

This wouldn't have applied to me until Week 7 when I traded to get him...the very same week he scored one point and never played/nor will play again this season. Same league I lost Julio Jones in and the same league where I have 100+ more points scored against me than anyone else and where I have more points scored than all but 2 teams (in a 13 team league) and am 4-5 somehow. Seriously, fuck this league, I am out.

I was up 5 going in to today, they had Tampa's Defense. I stopped following after TB got the safety, but at the start of the 4th Miami had somehow scored enough to only be giving my opponent 2 points......I'm up 3 on Miami's last drive.

The last 4 plays for Miami:
Sack - 1 point
Sack - 1 point
Incomplete
INT - 2 points.

I lose by 1, because TBs defense scores him 4 points in 4 plays.

Traded Moreno and Nelson for Foster and Luck a few weeks back..The trade wouldn't have hurt so badly if Doug Martin didn't end up on IR and Ray Rice didn't look like he's 50. So now I'm leaning on Leveon Bell and Steven Jackson at RB to carry me.

I'll go toe to toe with you on that.
:lol: Let's hit it...maybe our fellow fantasy players can vote.

Yes, I have Drew Brees and RGIII, so QB is pretty good...but then look :lol:

QB: Brees, RGIII
RB: Ray Rice, Andre Ellington, Gio Bernard, Chris Ivory, Daniel Thomas (:rofl:)
WR: Boldin, Jeffrey, Amendola
TE: Witten, Eifert
K: Bailey
DEF: Cincinnati

I'll toss my hat into the ring with these 7-3 shenanigans:

QB: Rodgers (out) and Eli Manning
RB: Foster (out for season), Sproles, Mike James (out for season), BJE, and Donald Brown
WR: James Jones, V Jax, Riley Cooper (my one solid pickup), Lance Moore, Hartline
TE: Gates
D/ST: Chiefs
K: Vinatieri (put up a goose egg last week)

10 team league....so that probably factors somehow:

QB: Matt Stafford, Andy Dalton
RB: CJ Spiller, Trent Richardson, Darren Sproles, Chris Johnson (traded for him a few weeks ago on the cheap)
WR: Reggie Wayne, Eric Decker, Hakeem Nicks, Brian Hartline.....DHB, Marvin Jones, DeAndre Hopkins as late pickups
TE: Jimmy Graham (thank god for Jimmy Graham)
K: Crosby
D: Chiefs & Cards....both mid season pickups

I'll put this here for some more visibility, but need the regular Fantasy footballers to chime in- @DA-Bucks @AuTX Buckeye @Buckeneye

I've been playing TE musical chairs all year- currently sitting with Tim Wright (TB). I'm tied for 2nd place, somehow, but looking for some playoff push. Trade offer:

Give up Andre Johnson for Greg Olsen (...and Andre Brown, but whatever).

Now understand, my other WRs are: DeSean Jackson, Victor Cruz, Alshon Jeffrey, and I just picked up Michael Crabtree (expecting good things). I could easily start those first 3 and be alright I think, though I like the trend Johnson has been showing with Keenum. But I'm a black hole at TE...like 10.2 and 9.5 (Kyle Rudolph) are my highs with every other score hovering around 2pts the other 8 games lol.

I'm 6-4 in a very competitive 10 team pay league. Do I roll with Tim Wright and stick with the WRs that have helped me score the most points in the league (ok, that was Drew Brees)?...or do I upgrade TE?

Other trade offer talked about with a guy before this week was Give up Alshon Jeffrey for Jordan Reed. Unfortunately he got knocked out of the playoff picture so I'm not sure what interest he has in going through with it. Could definitely ask. I like that one more, I think.
