What were Brandon Marshall's "official" numbers? FantasyStar had him at 20.70 and FBG was 19.60. I made the cut either way, but just wondering about the guys close to the Mendoza line. Was there a change, or just a mistake somewhere?

Footballguy
Marshall had -11 rushing yards, which I assume is where the discrepancy is - I guess thefantasystar doesn't account for the negative rushing yards, but FBG's score would be the "official" numbers.ETA: At least you made the cut. Could've been this guy:

Noticed the same thing with my score when I went to go look my team up. Tomarken is right, FantasyStar isn't official scoring, and may still have issues to correct, however things look good except for this one issue. I'm sure that OC will look into what needs to happen to fix the negative scoring bug.
You outscored me by 0.2.Made it by 0.3.

I"m swimming upriver now with Mendy burning a hole in my roster. Oh well, alive for now, but don't expect to see next week.

I would venture that 85% of teams are missing a minimum 2 players (and $25 worth of cap) to injury by now. For me, it is Colston, M. Nugent. I imagine it could be worse.
TheFanatic

What happened to the guy with 8 defenses?
tomarken
Footballguy
There were actually 27 teams with 8+ defenses. Five of them are still alive...!ETA: Here they are. Amazing.
And the guy with 14 kickers is still alive!

Having problems at WR with R. Moss not producing, but the $13 I spent for my 3 QB's is working out better than expected. Kyle Orton actually saved me from elimination last week.

Bah. Schaub finally has a good week but the loss of FWP and JAX defense looking really bad this week finally did me in. Missed cutoff by 4 points.

Looking at the player list and percentages owned, Boldin owners are really hoping for him to be healthy and playing well for the season. Boldin is only owned by 6.3% of the teams still alive in the contest.

I drafted three QBs and three TEs this year. I got burned last year with only two TEs. Since one was injured, I was relying on one TE for a few weeks and that killed me in a best ball format.QUEZILLA said:

I went same 3 + Garcia. I went out last year when 2/3 of my Qbs were injured and one was on a bye.

He's getting good scoring from his K position.
Actually he's getting nice avg. weekly scores so far too.

Put me down here. I just hope he is back by week 6 as I will be missing Tony Gonzalez who has been good to me. Also the el cheepo QB strategy is working so far as Warner and Delhomme cost just $17.TOTAL 162.35 207.65 142.60 178.80 CUTOFF 112.85 132.60 133.60 138.70

LOL, just noticed that he doesn't even have a flex player - he's survived the cut every week with only 9 active players!Of course, he'll be missing both of his RB's, one of his three WR's, and his only TE in week 10. Gonna need a lot of FG's to overcome that!He's getting good scoring from his K position.Actually he's getting nice avg. weekly scores so far too.

I'm taking zeroes at TE with Crumpler (dang, I thought he would be decent) and Fasano. Hoping Fasano can come up when needed.Thankfully my QBs rock (Cutler, Delhomme, Warner) and WRs have been solid. Next year, I'll buy a top TE and two lesser ones, and maybe not 4 $20+ WRs (Marshall, Smith, Holmes, Cotchery) and depth there. Got to balance that better. Still not sure if I'd get 3 kickers or DEF though. The nice thing about defenses is you don't have to worry about completely losing one to injury.

Currently, it's just Stallworth at $12 for me. Unless Derek Hagen is hurt, rather than just sucking.

Just to show you how much luck is involved here, I seriously considered Crumpler for several weeks and scratched him at the deadline.

I will never own Stallworth in any format ever again. I started him one week where he got injured IN PRE-GAME WARMUPS. No thank you.

My Fitzgerald/Breaston combo is suddenly looking like much more the
play.Finished just outside the top 300.Must be the mighty Heap/Keller TE combo.Used every week:LT2, LFitz, S Moss, PraterNever used:M Ryan, Ricky Williams, B Berrian, P Dawson, Detroit-QG

Turner and Slaton were pretty good last week

I knew it was less than 1, so that's why a decimal and the number 1 was stuck in my headLast year's winner had one week where he made the cut by 0.1.jon_mx said:You outscored me by 0.2.bro1ncos said:Made it by 0.3.
Still, don't sweat close calls as last year's winner proved.
