THE HELL IS WITH THIS ASS!?





I guess I hit the poo poo Lottery because I faced Achane in 2/5 leagues. And Mostert in two of the others!

And actually have Mostert in the last one, so small blessing but still. gently caress me, 40+ nukes getting dropped on my teams everywhere.

I started Tlaw, Gibbs, and Kelley today because Eke is dead. I like what I saw out of Sun god and Amari and I'm confident Nakua will keep it up but...well, I'm just glad I can start Kamara next week.

I’m looking forward to half of my offense not being dead so I can join the rest of my league in scoring 100-115pts instead of my current *peeks at yahoo fantasy* 86pts

At least I can always count on Goff and Jefferson

Lol I did the same. Dropped Achane and kept Jeff Wilson Jr - the other other Miami rb

I feel bad cause I suggested you should start Tlaw and uh yeah. If it's any consolation in the league where I have him I got shitstomped. I don't know what the hell is going on with the Jags man, I thought they were going to be lighting it up but turns out "it" was a dumpster fire behind a Jacksonville Arbys

Mike Williams got hurt? I missed that. Sucks rear end cause he is such a cool and fun player but got drat dude is injured ALL THE TIME. I actually really wanted to draft him this year but he got sniped even sooner than I was willing to take him in every draft. Saved from myself I guess.

Thank you for my DFS cash today, Big Mike, we will never forget that sick flea flicker from Keenan :911:

Do I drop Allegeier for Kamara now that he’s off suspension, or do I keep him and pray for better matchups?

I have Montegomery (injured for now) and Jacobs, but so far only Monty is anything approaching consistent

Yeah its a head scratcher. Pederson is a good cosch, tlaw took a step forward last year, ridley is very talented, yet somehow they can’t avoid 3 and out like 50% of the time. I really don’t know what to make of it!

I wonder what percentage of people who had Achane started him? Gotta be single digits.

I last minute subbed him in as my second flex, for Craig reynolds. In another league I wish I had started over Najee or Joshua Kelley. If I had I could have started both Mostert and Achane. It’d been the best matchup I’ve probably ever had.

So… yeah, if I was considering Craig reynolds over achane… then I doubt many started achane this week.

I am in the same boat, but you don't just flat drop your QB with an ADP of 44 after 2 games for any of those guys. Maybe for Cousins or Stafford or Goff, but not that trash.

Like it or not, we get to run Fields out one more time while Richardson's brain gets better.

Started 2-0 in my main league, despite Burrow’s bad start.

My genius decision today? “Ehhh, he’s questionable on MNF. I don’t want to chance it, or have to start/get sniped on his backup, and I’m hosed”

So, I started Carr. :smithicide:

Had Baker all set for an add/drop, but second guessed it. Welp, it is what it is. Though, it prob wouldn’t have mattered anyways, as Davante dropped 47 and change on me. Down 52.48 with Rachaad White to go. Definitely got a… <.1% chance.

TL;DR I’m an idiot for starting Carr, as I thought he was due for some dumb reason.

What makes a gallows rope to swing

I had fields and needed a backup QB in the draft and remembered some random good posted a tweet about how Tua was now rolling sideways instead of falling on his head and so I was like ok that sounds promising so drafted him and now feeling good.

Also managed to bench Kelley this week but Rhomandre Stevens is joining him in all likelihood next week.

8 person leagues are such silly things.

I mean, Carr got hurt like less than halfway through the game. I don't think you need to beat yourself up over this one, poo poo happens :shrug: Who knows what would have happened if he played the full game.

It's still totally possible Burrow is out, has to leave the game, or just sucks for injury or whatever random reason too

Wish I had just decided to drop Kendre Miller two nights ago and grabbed Tank Dell. Didnt listen to my feelings damnit. Balanced roster be damned (only got McCaffrey and K9).

Think I remember hearing that Stroud wanted the Texans to draft Tank. With the amount of times they throw theres definitely enough volume for Nico, Tank and Bobby Trees just might be hard to predict whos gonna be going off week to week.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I kind of feel bad for other guys in my league. The #1 and #2 scoring teams are playing each other, and the #3 (me hopefully after tonight) and the #4 guy is my opponent. Putting up 130-140 points and still losing is tough.

Geno, Love and Purdy should be owned in most leagues. Purdy should be starting in many. Stroud may be very good after week 4, ROS, if his OL heals.

I picked the Pats in my suicide pool as well while the field went mostly with the Jags and Cowboys. You're gonna have to pick the Pats at some point why not when they play the Zach Wilson Jets? If not then, when?

One matchup in my league (.5ppr 12 team standard scoring league, where avg is like 100 points) is projected to finish 170 to 180. Guy has Mostert, Mahomes, Kelce and will still lose. Buffalo defense carrying the high scoring team. Brutal.

I'm projected for 167

Hell I am considering dropping Dimes for Stroud this week. He’s not going to be my top choice but he’ll be in the pool of claims. I can’t deal with a floor of 3 points every week

Only problem is both he and Love have byes in like the next 3 weeks

My opponent is finished for the week, is up on me by 8 points in .5 ppr. I still have White, Swift, Puka, and PHI D/ST left to play tonight. If I can't squeeze 8 points out of those four then I guess I deserve to lose.

Also, just while I'm here, major thanks to Drunk Nerdsfor providing resources and all the other goons who have helped with advice. Still a novice but feel like I've got a solid grasp of things. Tuesdays are quickly becoming my 3rd favorite day of the week, love working those waivers.

Kenny Pickett performed just well enough to put me in a bind. I've had him on the bench as a backup for if/when Tua gets hurt again, and I've been considering dropping him and just streaming on that occasion. But the problem is that he's just above any of the waiver wire options I would have to choose from so I guess I'll carry this weight.

Why would you ever say something like this

Makes mental note to check back tonight after Puka aggravates his injury in pre game warmups, White pulls a hammy in the first quarter, Swift retires to become a Taylor Swift backup dancer and the Eagles allow 50 points
