Crappy football. Injuries to key players. Poor lineup decisions. Poor waiver/fa moves. Facing kareem hunt or Brady in the first 2 weeks.
For whatever reason (or for all of the reasons above), our teams are cellar dwellers after 2 weeks of the season.
We worked so hard. We spent hours and hours for months on end mock drafting, analyzing players, teams, situations, opportunities, etc.
what went wrong? Well, the goodness is that it's an long season, and 0-2 isn't a death sentence. I have personally started 0-2 many times before and rallied to make serious noise in the playoffs.
It takes patience, focus, and decisiveness. It takes working the waiver wire like a bandito every week. Anticipating the next hot pickup before he pops. Streaming defenses, and even streaming qbs and tight ends according to matchups if you must in order to maximize your weekly output.
But it can be done!
So go ahead and post your 0-2 teams here and let's see if group think can help us all out of this rut!
a few things:
- if you have Russell Wilson or jimmy graham, it might be time to start streaking qbs and tight ends while they ride the pine until they get their ##### together in Seattle.
- the same goes for kirk cousins, dalton, eifert, mixon. They should be on your bench until they prove otherwise.
- Trevor semian and Carson wentz are must adds if available. I am personally targeting semian on waivers to stream over Wilson until he gets back on track.
- this is not the time to be making any drastic moves like dropping a stud player BC he has underperformed. It may be time to bench them until further notice but not to drop them and not to trade them for peanuts.
