About to be 2-5 in dynasty with Brees, Bell, Ajayi, Green, Dez, KAllen, THill, Thielen, Kelce, Engram ... find a different way to lose each week

This week it was the 40+ pts from opponent K and D

Need 4 50+ FG from Elliot tonight to win or might start looking to deal Green and Dez for younger pieces

 
As long as cousins doesn't have his best game of the season tonight I should move to 6-1

Ran into a similar scenario in a salary cap league (Newton, DJ, Bell, Howard, AJG, Hilton, Watkins).  Won the scoring title last year by 200 points, wanted to make one last run before Bell and AJG got too expensive to keep.  Lost DJ, made multiple poor starter decisions, and lost 3 games by a combined 10 points - one by 0.5 when my kicker scored -1.

Traded Bell and AJG last week for a couple young/cheap guys and about 120 units of cap space (400 cap) for next year.  Trading's a ##### in auction leagues since there aren't draft picks - cap space is about all you can do.

 
Felt ok about my WRs going into season:  OBJ, Sammy Watkins, Keenan Allen, Allen Robinson, DeVante Parker, Davante Adams, Jamison Crowder, Breshad Perriman, Tyler Lockett, 

10-team league.  Right now they are almost all worthless. About all of them are either injured, awful, or just not involved in offense.  Backup QBs throwing to them doesn't help, either.  

Also have Aaron Rodgers and David Johnson on this roster.  Unbelievable first seven weeks for me.

Started the season 4-1, was league scoring leader averaging like 156 per week and then Rodgers walked into a Barr......been barely able to limp close to 130 the past 2 weeks with Dalton now as my QB savior......I think I'm gonna be sick again..... 

Sometimes I just hate FF.......but I can't quit you like some form of drug........and so the cycle continues.......

OOF.  Thanks for making me feel a little better?

 
Felt pretty good about my RB's.

Ajayi, Hyde and McKinnon and all 3 were blah with not one td. 

I get Lamar Miller back this week, so add another overhyped RB that will be in the top 10-15 and do squat for me. 

It's either all or nothing with these guys, and they tend to perform the same each week, making my scoring all or nothing.

My team 6-0, playing against the 12th place - lowest scoring, 1-5 team this week.  Going to need Cousins, Thompson and Ertz to outscore Mason Foster by about 30 points.  Normal leagues this would be doable - but in my league you get 1 pt per 30 yds, 1  pt per recpt, and QBs get 1 pt per 80 yds.  So I'm going to need about 4 tds between those 3 players or I take the big L.  Crazy game.

Jordy Nelson and Melvin Gordon - there was a game today.

Well Foster is healthy - but 3 tds so far and only down 3.5 at half.  Need probably 2 more tds between Cousins/Thompson/Ertz....or Foster to do jack squat the second half and get 100 yards from Cousins and another 60 combined from Thompson and Ertz....it could happen....not likely, but at least there is a chance.

 
Down 43 going into tonight with only wentz. No shot right? Except wentz has an amazing game and scores 42 with 11 minutes left and probably won't throw another pass all game. And I switched out funchess for Bryant last second. This one is gonna haunt me all year. 

 
Needed 26 from Ertz and Jeffrey tonight. Ertz doing what he's done all year. Unfortunately Jeffrey dos as well. Guh. Going to lose by 5. C'mon--no Josh Norman and Jeffrey gets just over 30 measly yards? I also have Cam Newton to thank; his 3 turnovers deducted 6 points off my score! Grrrr! Should be 5-2!

Just realized, I also traded cousins and graham for kelce this week. Kelce scored 11.3, graham 12.6. So essentially it cost me a win. Sick to my stomach over this.

Gonna be 2-5. 4th most points in the league. Been losing to the highest scorers so far. This week. Going to lose to the team that hasn't won yet by scoring probably the lowest score of the week. He'll have maybe the 2nd or 3 Rd worst.

I hate this game.

Wentz single handedly won my game for me! 

I love this game!

 
I was only up 2 going into the MNF game and my opponent had Blount.  I was still up 2 with 3 min left.  Then Blount ripped off that 21 yd run....we're tied.  2 more Blount runs....I am losing by 1, but on Blount's last run he loses a yard, ends up with 29 yds, and my opponent and I end up in a tie.

So close to stealing one.

 
That damn pass to Thompson where he lost 3 yards was minus 3 passing yards for Cousins. -.30 points. Cost me a victory point. Ugh.  Hoping for a stat change now.

 
Down by 52.94 going into MNF last night, my opponent is done, and I have Wentz and Jake Elliott. 
Wentz gets 40.02
Elliott gets 13

I win by 0.08!!! Might be my favorite win ever in fantasy

Wow

 
I lost to an 0-6 team that I outscored by 370 points the first 6 games. Cooper put up 50.00 on TNF and Reed 26.40 on MNF. His K & DST outscored mine 40.75-12.00. Margin was 37.69.

Stupid hobby.

 
Collins hasn't even sniffed 100 yards all year but I go up against him and he already has 60 yards rushing and a catch midway through the 2nd quarter.  My opponents have been smoking me every week on Thursday night football.  

 
So...er, uh...I, uh....kinda dropped Alex Collins and the Ravens D and their combined 45 points a couple days ago....

I don't deserve to win in fantasy football....I give up

Last week I was down 0.00-50.00 on Friday morning as Amari Cooper had the best WR FF performance of the season.

This week I’m up 40.75-0.00 after the Ravens had the best DST output of the year.

 
The good thing(this counts as bragging, I guess) is I have the #2 waiver spot, so I either get Collins back or move up to the top spot.  Woohoo?

 
Man it makes me so bad when your skill players are clearly out producing your opponent but your opponent has like 50 points from their D and kicker 

 
On pace to be lower than projections for a 7th straight week. 

Best part, opted to drop Doyle for Kroft as my streamer on Friday. :middlefinger:

I switched out Robby Anderson for T Williams 2 minutes before kickoff because of the horrible weather reports on New York.   Every time I make a last minute switch it ends up kicking me in the nuts.  Never again.

Last minute switch cost me 25 points. Kroft IN Doyle OUT. Because why would anyone start a home TE on a 3-game scoring streak against a soft as mush pass defense over a road player against a stout pass defense...  :wall:

Yahoo gave me about 80% win probability after the early games. Opponent has Watson and Fuller  :wall:

Two weeks ago, I was a 86% favorite, during the afternoon games, and ended up losing by 60. Their projections are trash as evidenced by my crappy team underachieving 7/8 weeks running.

EDIT: Of course he has Zeke. Boys block a FG and run it all they way to the 1. Zeke gets the gift. I'm going to take up crocheting.

Ohh come on now, just because you have will Fuller and Jack Doyle us no reason to rub it in.   Lol

 
Gonna lose to a really good team this week.  Fall to 6-2 after winning 5 straight
