Fantasy Football 2008

I'm projected to lose in all three of my leagues this week, so I'm feeling pretty good about my chances.

Crispy's projected to beat me by like 20.  He's really got a good team though and I can't really say the same for myself.  I screwed myself by campaigning for the extra flex position because I have ZERO depth.  You live, you learn I guess. That's not to say I'm giving up already but I've already made some mistakes that I'm going to have to make up for somehow. Step one: defeat Chris!

Match-up of the week: Jon T vs 2-0 K!  Good luck BMFs!

Oh and next week I probably won't have enough eligible players to fill my lineup and the ones who will be in there will mostly be scrubs.  You're welcome, Killgies!

Thats usually how it works..yahoo's projections look very odd sometimes though

That said, if your projected to lose by 15 or something, you usually end up winning, hah

Looks like you got me, Dylan - unless I get a monster game from Gates tonight! Ronnie Brown and the old single wing really did a number on me.

Well, it happened.  I was projected to lose in all three leagues and I won in all three leagues.  The other two games weren't even close. Just goes to show ya...

Good game, Crispy.  I hope you know my smack talk is all in good fun (I think you do).  I would say I lucked out on Ronnie Brown, but I went out on a limb to get him because he was so good for me last year before he got injured and I didn't believe the "Ricky Williams is my #1 stuff" either, so I'm going to have to take full credit for this W!  ;)  :)  

[Killgies]

I have Felix Jones up on the Trading Block. Looking for a QB

holla

[corey]

I'll trade Big Ben for him.

[Crispy]

Well done Dylan! I am no longer putting any confidence in Yahoo's idiot projections!  ;D

[corey]

What do you think, Killgies? Felix for Big Ben?

[Killgies]

Sure! Hopefully Big Ben turns it around some. I'm hurting at QB!

[corey]

Awesome. Sweet deal.
Thanks.

The O-line needs to turn it around, not Ben.

As a PIT homer, I dont expect the OLine to struggle that much here on out.

Philly has a great D, esp pass rush, but Tomlin and players have said almost all of the problems were to due mistakes in protection scheme (1 OLineman blocking right when they were all supposed to go left, RBs doing the same thing), Roethlisberger not reading the blitz correctly, and WRs not running the correct hot routes

So basically, its not really the talent of the OLineman, but knowing the playbook and playcalling

BAL will be a good test on MNF so I guess well see how much they worked out

[aMillionDreams]

If I somehow pull out a victory tonight with my entire bench on bye it'll be the best upset of all time, but it probably ain't gonna happen.

deuce coming back seriously cut into reggie bush's numbers this week.  I hope that's not a recurring trend.

No shit. He's been a big producer for me in my other league and it hurt me this week. I'm 5 points ahead of the leader in that league in our matchup this week (I'm currently in 2nd). He has PITT's DEF tonight and all of my players are done. If Bush could have put up a few more points, I might would have pulled that one off.... but I assume PITT will come through with more than 5 points, so I'm probably screwed.  :(
