Gano's injury has me feeling better about my decision to roster 4 kickers (he was one of them).
Remind me to show you my stats on 2 vs 3 vs 4 kickers :wink:

IIRC 3 is a significant improvement over 2 just because their scoring tends to be high-variance and fairly random, but the marginal benefit of a 4th is a lot less. However I've experienced enough K injuries in recent years, and a couple rookies where I had job security concerns, such that I wanted 4 this year to try and ensure that I kept 3 active... and wouldn't be reduced to 1 on a bye week, etc.
 
Thank god I loaded up on TE’s……..

Engram
Kittle
Ferguson

Sad it’s down to hoping Ferguson at least plays this week 🙁

I'm down Kittle and TBD on Ferguson as well, but at least have Taysom Hill and Hayden Hurst as my 3/4 guys to try and ensure I avoid a goose-egg if Ferguson sits, even if it's only 5 points.

I'm Hurst-less

Well good news is Ferguson is playing... I have him in my FFPC best ball as well.
 
Kittle officially out and Taysom doubtful.
This goes with McCaffrey.
Tee is back but I think some other guy is injured now for my rooster too I am losing track...

and a couple rookies where I had job security concerns
Here are the rookie kickers over the last 10 years that started week 1 and were cut/waived because they sucked:
2020 - Sam Sloman - 7th round pick waived after 7 games by the Rams
2018 - Daniel Carlson - 5th round pick waived after 2 games by the Vikings
2017 - Younghoe Koo - UDFA waived after 4 games by the Chargers
2014 - Nate Freese - 7th round pick waived after 3 games by the Lions

Not really the list anyone was expecting. 2 guys that lasted less than a year in the league, and 2 that are currently 4th and 5th all time in FG percentage (minimum 100 attempts).
 
Down Kittle and Hill, but at least I have McBride.
Down KWIII and Vidal, so it might be time for Javonte to step up and give Singletary and Dobbins a hand.
Lots of healthy WRs, so they better provide my Flex points

I see your Kittle, Hill, Fergusen and raise you Kittle, Hill, and Colby Freakin Parkinson......I may not see next week. Ugh

I reraise you with Engram, Kittle, Taysom, and Parkinson. Very glad I rostered 4, down to just Parkinson this week...

I miss the days of $10 Defense flame to attract the moths.
It's comical how many people still opt for expensive D's. Of the 5 D's for $7, all of them are in the top 18. Even if they finish 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 they still won't be worth it!

I think people roster expensive defenses in this contest because they are pre-programmed to think about how defenses get fantasy points in other fantasy formats that include points surrendered and yards surrendered.

But in this contest, the only things that count are sacks, fumble recoveries, interceptions, and touchdowns, so defenses usually only have a big day in this contest when they either get a pick-6 or a fumble recovery TD. There is NO WAY an expensive defense (like $7 or $8) will score double the points in this contest that a $3 defense scores. In fact they often score less than cheap defenses. Sometimes it seems like the salary cap costs for defenses came off a magic 8-ball.
 
Trying to stay alive this week, in spite of my top RB, 3 TEs, and 1 PK out with injuries.

Players are dropping like files this year, and there's no shortage of top players among them. Any chance I have to stay alive hinges on the fact that lots of other teams are also missing top players out due to injuries.

Gotta hope I get some good numbers from the players that I have active. GREEN BAY DEFENSE (20 points) sure helped ‼️

Who do you think is your single most important player this week?
I think mine is Colby Parkinson, since he is my only active TE. Nabers coming through big, and signs of life from Sutton, Odunze and Sermon might be enough to mask a low TE score and missing KW3.
 
Feeling pretty good at 131.5 with all of McBride's points, Mahomes (-21.3) and two of Justice Hill, McLaurin, Rashee, Jameson Williams, Shakir and Iosivas (-5.1), although I was calling Singletary some choice names for stopping at the 1 so the Giants could run out the clock.
 
Packers defense trying to keep me in this thing against all odds.
After 1pm games
98.75 + (Burrow - 28.95) + (Dowdle - 0.00/6.10/8.50) + (Higgins/Rice/J Williams (Det)/Tucker - 0.00/1.90/6.10/23.40) + (Bowers/Parkinson - 0.00/0.00/6.10) + (Karty/Little/Bates - 0.00)

Jennings :love:

I refuse to check my score. Don't want to know how bad my team is this week. I've already heard the fat lady sing.

Don't mind reading the opening cut line though if anyone has it.

I'll see you BOTH, and raise you Kittle, Njoku, Hill, Ken Walker III, and Gano ‼️ :P
