Hi I'm Tyreek Hill and you are required to start me every week. I'll either get you 5 points or 40 points, but nothing in between. Which one will it be this week?

I'm happy this week. Going to 3-2 in a 0.5 PPR Yahoo 12-team league where I'm at 193.94 points with a projection of 208.16 (got Pittman Jr. as WRIII on Monday night and Zach Moss was my flex tonight). Anyway, that's a league high point total for the season (surpassing 191.58). Even better, it gets me a win over a manager whom I'd been 0-6 against over the past four years.

In my Yahoo league (full PPR, 20 teams, each with 9 defensive players), I'm at 184.15 with Jonathan Taylor still to play tomorrow night, but it's very likely not enough to overcome the whopping 217.77 that my opponent is tracking to get. That loss would put me at 3-2 there. My big mistake in that one was playing Tannehill over Jameis. I have played the lower-scoring guy between them so far each week.

In my only nfl.com league (also full PPR, 12 teams), I'm on the verge of going 5-0 and was already the only undefeated team after week 4.

All in all, poo poo's going not too badly.

I had Russel Wilson and my back up QB Danny Dimes go down this week. Who’s the best pick up for my superflex next week?

(I took a screen shot of the waiver wire, but I’ll be damned if I can figure out how to post an image on here)

Bridgewater, Geno Smith, Wentz, Mac Jones, or Danny Mills.

Am I crazy for looking at Mills as his matchup next week is Indy?

Man I know fantasy is ebbs and flows but this is my toughest year ever so far. 3-2, 3-2, 3-1 (hopefully after tonight) and then five teams with one win or less. I would love to go on a run with that 0-5 team but it’s crazy.

Similar story here. I'm now 0-5 in my friends league despite having the second highest score in the league this week. I deserve it a bit though for trading Ekler after week 2 (I drafted all RBs with the first three picks and desperately needed WR depth).

I'm in 4 leagues. If I'm lucky I'll win 2 games this week for the first time this year. Coming into the week I was a combined 2-14.

Yeah. I'm doing mediocre to bad across all four of my leagues, despite not having what I would consider terrible teams. The main culprit has been injuries. In one 2QB league, I've had Fitzpatrick, Tua, Chark and now Golladay all go down without clearing a fantasy point before getting injured in their games. And those were all separate weeks so they spread the amount of loving me over very evenly.

I've had terrible luck with matchups in other leagues, getting hit with the dreaded 2nd highest scorer loses to highest scorer. Despite all that, the only league I'm really making GBS threads the bed in is my roto-style points league where I'm dead last. But I've definitely had some lovely injury luck there, too. Just gotta remind yourself that it's a long season, and it seems like everybody's getting crushed with injuries. Maybe it's your guys who end up healthy later on when other people are dealing with the same problems.

I'm 2-3. Guess I was due for some bad luck after making it to 3 championships in a row and winning two. Not over though, so there's still hope.

Started off 0-2 with a crushingly close Week 2 loss, but somehow got my way up to 3-2 now just barely squeezing out a win this week by 4 points.

I want to give a shoutout to Najee Harris being a baller workhorse, Dawson Knox being a rad waiver pickup to replace Kittle, and Aaron Rodgers deciding to give a poo poo again after that Week 1 performance.

I really can't complain this year. Last year I was a combined 16-23. Did win a championship though!

Beer league: about to go 3-2. Oh well, already almost at my win total for last year.

20-team: 3-1. Outside shot for a win tonight if Hillywood and Tucker can make up a 20-ish point gap and Indy D is a dud.

Dynasty: about to go 2-3 and fully committed to the tank so okay.

Random auction league I accidentally joined thinking it was a mock auction draft because those are fun: Rough start but after going 0-3 to begin the season, most likely will be 2-3 after tonight.

So, 9-7 so far, probably 10-10 by the morning. I'll just be happy with playoff spot everywhere but dynasty and with a top-3 pick there.

Not trying to downplay it but 2-3 doesn’t strike me as “time to tank” unless you’ve lost 3 in a row due to injuries and your team is utter garbage. Which could be the case, idk, just saying.

This is a dynasty team that finished 15-24 in the last three years and felt like it was time to blow it up. If you squint it could've been a playoff squad but I told myself that same thing the past two years and ended up a middling team and out of contention both times.

I can feel that, in my keeper league I’ve come in last 2 out of the last 4 years. Each year started out hopeful and slowly bled out, which is why I’m cautiously optimistic this season at 3-2 with (finally) some good keeper prospects.

CEH is just a sprained ACL. Will miss "a few weeks." Wheeew. Thought for sure watching the game that he'd blown it and would be done for the year.

Much like the Kansas City Chiefs, my defending runners up have a loaded team but have faced some tough competition and am at a disappointing 2-3

Goon Dynasty
Much like the Tampa Bay Bucs, my defending champs have picked up where they left off and are 4-1 (as long as DeForest Buckner and Darius Leonard don't outscore Michael Pittman by more than 20)

Cause I'm a sicko, I joined a 32 team dynasty league over the summer. 1-4, not doing great against 31 of the kind of people who would join a 32 team league in June
