FF sucks this season. There's too many productive players. I don't even have an edge perusing this forum against people in my league who play very casually.

I own Fitz, Nicks, Bowe, CJ2K in a 12-teamer and I lost hecka bad.

FYI, perusing a FF forum is usually bad for gaining an advantage.Protip: Next time you think about taking advice from a FF forum like footballguys, do the opposite.

 

[ponchsox]

Nicks and TRich killed me.

 

[Omerta]

RG3's performance was simply stunning. I have Vick/RG3 at QB and Vick's dumpster fire game against the Browns was more palatable after I saw the stat line for RG3.

That is because you refuse to recognize that nicks is always injured; Fitz has no Qb; cj2 blows

 

[Sweetness_34]

Nicks and TRich killed me.

Your fault. Why draft a RB in 2nd round when that team has no Qb and no wrs....which means very few goal line chances too....add his injuries; playing against Pitt Cincy and Baltimore twice and it was pretty obvious

I didn't. End of round 3 in a 12 teamer. I still think he's good value there.

 

[UnderDawgs]

Played Sproles and Jennings

Sat Spiller and Ridley.

:(

 

[donkshow]

I drafted Julio in my keeper league last year (keep 4), went through the injuries and such last year, kept him at the end of the year knowing the potential he had, and boy am I in love with this player. He's a ####### BEAST.

 

[Bad Mojo]

Bad....whole team

Good...up by 20

Bad....he has Rice and Heyward Bey

What kind of jackass comes into the venting thread and talks ####?Its week one, almost every performance is not indicative of what we will see the rest of the season...

 

[rubrink]

Cant believe I'm considering sitting CJ1k for Ridley next week :-S Tonight I need 5 points from Gresham, and I'm worried I'm not gonna get them (PPR at least).

 

[fatness]

Colston mia Graham starts out great than disappears.

I can't figure out why the Saints didn't keep going to Graham. The Redskins looked like munchkins trying to stop him or tackle him.But they didn't and the Skins won.

Oh, I know the answer here....because I was playing against the Lance Moore owner and he needed a stellar game out of him to beat me.... so after posting a zero for most of the game, Brees decided to throw to Moore exclusively for a 6-120-1 stat line. FING AWESOME!!!1111

 

[solorca]

Brags - Happy to have Matt Ryan and Brandon Marshall on my team!

Vents - Thanks to Hakeem Nicks and the Bills defense (and my opponent having the Texans), I'm still in a position where I could very likely lose, even though I started Ryan, Marshall, Harvin, Murray, and Vernon Davis.

I now have to rely on Mcfadden and Kaeding to outscore Ray Rice. It's possible, but I'm not feeling good about things.

 

[Mr.Pack]

Cj2 is a bum....did not draft him in any leagues

Cool story bro

 

[ZigZagMan]

League #1: Terrible RB auction drafting on my part. Could've had Ridley with only a minor overpayment, instead left with Wells, D.Brown, and Benson as my RB2 options.

League #2: Thought I waited to long in my 2 QB league, ending up with Peyton and RGIII. Not looking too bad right now.

 

[Bobble Fett]

I drafted Doug Martin and Stevan Ridley as RB 3s and 4s in all of my leagues. DMC and Lynch as RB1s and 2s.... I AM EFFING STOKED about 2012.....

I believe that this is very possible solorca. don't give up hope just yet!

you lost cause you drafted guys who have big names but if you thought about their situations, all suck.

 

[Shutout]

Top in points in my league week 1, and nobody really even exploded. Just steady contributions across the board.

Me too. those are the best weeks, when you feeli like you have a TEAM; not just a bunch of high profile names.Congrats on your good week.

 

[Lash]

Benched Tracy Porter and his gimpy hammy at last second for Carlos Rogers

 

[notdarkyet]

I love fanduel. Set to win more than my initial deposit after just a few small money games. :rock:

 

[[icon]]

EATING CROW: I underestimated ADP's abilty to bounce back this quickly... short of a re-injury, I don't see how he doesn't finish as a solid RB1. Props to all who had the balls to stick their necks out for him.

MISMANAGEMENT:

Benched Garcon for Antonio Brown (WR3)... Benched Pats DST for Ravens DST (yet to be seen but Pats posted a ####load of points).

BRAG:

Had a pretty big money league draft 2 weeks ago and simply can't believe how it shook out... $300 buyin with $10 FA Pickups. TWO 10-team PPR Bonus Scoring leagues that send their top 2 into a playoff for weeks 15/16 for a combined prize pool of almost $7500. Couldn't believe how poorly some folks drafted... ended up with the following:

QB (1) : RGIII / Ben

RB (2) : Foster / Martin / Sjax / Tate

WR (3): Julio / AJ / A Brown / P Garcon / D Baldwin

TE (1): Hernandez / Gonzalez

PK (1): Henery / Bullock

TD (1) : Ravens / Patriots

 

[Cliff Clavin]

Bad: Going to lose if Seabass kicks a FG tonight.

Bad: The idiot who set my roster. Starters: 121. Bench: 111.

Good: Got lots of depth

 

[TarheelBlue]

Brag: Drafted and started AP as my RB2. Coupled with Gore and McCoy... and ultimately LeShour in flex.

Brag: Kept the faith in Manning and am starting Tamme and Demariyus.

Grieving: Also have WES WELKER and VJAX. Although my opinion is both still have great seasons.

Grieving: AP + Shady + Gore + DT + Tamme - Welker - VJAX = Being up six points right now with Nate Kaeding left... and he has Rice and Janikowski

You too man. I missed this feeling. Had a real struggle of a season last year.

 

[smotherhook]

What a day.

gonna be 0-7 first week. awesome

 

[Diamond One]

Turns out that Fred Jackson pick probably isn't going to work out how I wanted it to.

Umm, yeah - and he was one of my keepers.

 

[ichris]

Ugh, McFadden will ruin me tonight.

 

[AngryPatriot]

First I start Nicks... then at the last minute, idiot me, listening to all the talking heads, switch out Ridley for DeAngelo Williams at the last minute. They all said start him, higher than Ridley. How can they, we, have missed the freaken BOAT on Williams SO BAD- with no Stewart??? MY BAD, Williams can suck it. Trust your gut folks, at least you can live with it!!

Looks like my weak play will cost me this week, 0-1.

 

[joffer]

I'll just vent now. Up 5. I've got Rice, he's got Tucker. Somehow I'm going to lose this

 

[solorca]

Up 2, opponent has Ray Rice. I have Mcfadden and Kaeding. Rice already has nine points after about 5 minutes of football.

Sigh - Playing against the league champion who never seems to have a good team, but ALWAYS beats me. My lineup of...

Matt Ryan

Demarco Murray, DMC

Marshall, Harvin, Nicks

Vernon

Kaeding

BILLS

vs.

Cutler

Gore, Rice

Lloyd, VJax, Roddy

Gronk

Crosby

Texans

Even looking at the roster and knowing what I do about the games, I don't know how he's close...but somehow he's in the lead. I fully expect Rice to continue to explode in this game and end up with me being in a 30 point hole when my game starts. Then, DMC will probably get hurt.

Every time I play this guy....

 

[lbouchard]

I overpaid a bit to ensure Flacco and Smith. Paying off handsomely so far.

 

[Mr. Know-It-All]

Was up by 50 heading into tonight - after Ray Rice I am in a battle....need McFadden and Gates to outscore Rivers and Janikowski (well to not lose to them by more than 10).

 

[Gawain]

Started Flacco, facing Rice.

If Flacco gets the TD when he threw to Smith and Clements committed PI, I win. Rice gets the TD instead, I lose.

 

[Sienna2012]

Projected to win by 25. Every time this happens, I know I am in for a rough week. Welker 1 point, Fred Jackson out, Antonio Brown not doing much matched up against Champ bailey. As of now, I am down 40 points, with Mcfadden and Rice and Baltimore DST left to play on a Monday night. Monday night better be better than today was.

Whew dodged a bullet. Rice got me 20 and Ravens D has gotten me 33 so far. Glad I listened to my gut and Started Ravens DST over the Lions, when everyone said Lions would have a great week against St. Louis. Lions managed to get 13 points, go figure. I am going to bed now, no need to stay up and watch DMC.

 

[plymkr]

Needed 300 & 2 from FLacco...

Got 299 & 2. Son of a #####!

It's still possible that Mcfadden fumbles or loses some yards, but after the first half, I've managed to take the lead.I'd like to thank Carson Palmer for constantly throwing to Mcfadden, allowing me to pick up a ton of cheap PPR points

 

[Run It Up]

Pretty good week considering I got shellacked in one of my main leagues where I also lost FJax.

Happen to be in a ppr league where I can start 4 RBs, just happen to have R. Rice, D. Mcfadden, A. Bradshaw and BJGE - And Julio Jones.

 

[Sister Havana]

Come on Rivers, is one more TD too much to ask, so I can win in my money league? ETA: Apparently it is.

However, I am winning all the rest of my leagues!

 

[ponchsox]

3-0 in money leagues

 

[kardplayer]

Two games decided by a total of .5 points. Was praying the Chargers would run back a TD at the end so Kaeding would get a PAT and I'd win 'em both.

 

[BigSteelThrill]

My last player (Charger linebacker Donald Butler) gets a sack, and then a tackle with 4:40 remaining, to get me a 1 point win.

 

[Bonka]

Lose by 4.2 in a PPR. Started Little over BJGE/Gonzalez. Ran in to McFadden's 13 receptions and Kaeding tonight. Kaeding also beat me out for top score in another league for money by 4 points (benched AP for Sidney Rice last minute). Kaeding and my benchings > me.

 

[BigSteelThrill]

Started Little over BJGE/Gonzalez.

 

[Kenny Powers]

League high in points in 2 out of 3 leagues and neither was really close, 6 points off of the league high in the other league.

After a disasterous 2011 and not making the playoffs in either of my 2 leagues (after winning it all 3 out of 4 yrs in one - lost in finals other year, 1 championship and 2 semifinals in the last 3 yrs in the other league), Im starting to get that old time feeling back of why FF gets me excited.
