It all depends on which non-stud RBs you took. Mine are cruising along just fine....K.Jones

Bush

A.Green

Gore

M.Barber III

 
Interesting results for my team after 3 weeks...

#1 - 156.5 pts

#2 - 157.4 pts

#3 - 156.3 pts

Of course this was my strategy so it's all good. :P

 
simms is out, and im done like dinner.. took a risk with the qb's and its over :(
Who are your other QBs?
my fault, i made a mistake i originally had aaron brooks and chris simms with greise as my #3i changed it right before the deadline to rivers and delhomme :thumbup:conversely i think my team did well.. had betts, parker, keyshawn etc.i changed my team so often i didnt remember what the final product was

Thinking I'm OK this week.
You might be close JURB.
I think my score is going to be over 150, so if I'm out, looks like a LOT of people will be in trouble.
Im getting about 113. Where do you see 150?
Huh? How do you figure when:Kitna, 25.9

Simms, 16.1

Johnson, 9.7

McGahee, 17.3

Gore, 13.4

Lewis, 8.6

Evans, 18.7

Oh, I thot they tallied up everyone each week. Guess I should have read the rules, lol. :bag:
 
130.5 Hopefully I make the cut.
Lots of scoring happened this week... so 130 is gonna be real tight... I'm rooting with you though with about the same... depends on how much scoring continues tonight. Any big games by anyone (20+ pts) probably will push the cutoff to 140ish... doh. (hope I'm wrong! )
 
Interesting that a lot of those that seem to be on the bubble need a good game from Bush tonight. I don't remember the % of teams with Bush on them (I'm guessing quite a few) but if he has a good game doesn't that push the cutoff well above the estimated cutoff point?

 
Damn, I almost changed out LT for Alexander on the last day. Now I am totally screwed. Gore is hurting too. My only other legitimate back is FWP. I won't last another week.

 
:pickle:

I think I'm around 152-155. I was a bit blue until I remembered to add up those receptions. Here's to Muhsin! (9 rec).

This week's team:

Kitna

Gore

Betts (not a bad fill in for LT)

Jennings

Engram

Muhsin

Watson

Kasay

Giants

:pickle:

(I never get to use the pickle. I love the pickle)

Stupid question -- the obvious strategy here to me, based on the format, seemed to be to load up most of your cash at WR. The reason? As I understand it, your top 3 WRs get scored each week. That is more than at any other position. Accordingly, to maximize your "hit ratio" and ensure that most of your dollars have a chance to contribute each week, wouldn't it make the most sense to invest the most at the WR position (particularly since the scoring is PPR, which makes WRs essentially equivalent to RBs)?

Obviously value is going to take it at the end, but if you can maximize your dollar value at the WR spot, I think you end up with the most consistent lineup weekly. And in this survivor format, the most important thing is consistency.

Just my thought. Not sure if this was discussed in here previously, but I also see a lot of teams that have high-dollar QBs and RBs, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me (despite the fact that some of these teams are putting up huge point totals).

:shrug:

Sounds like a good strategy.

While I don't like my depth at RB, your strategy above seemed sound to me when I was fine-tuning my lineup. With so many starters at that position, it made sense to have a lot of good WR. Of course, EBF said that WR are overrated in this format, so :shrug:
 
I'm alive with 139 points.

How many of the LT/LJ + Gore combos are on the outside looking in this week? Hate to say I told you so but ... *cough cough*
