Good news is if I survive this week I'm gonna make a great run the bad news is my weak a-- running game takes a hit with no AP this week cj step up just this once

 
Thru 4:

QB: Brady (2), Taylor (1), Palmer (1).

Got thru Brady's bye no problem

RB: Peterson (3), Hill (2), Ivory (2), Martin (2), Mathews (1), Michael (0)

Could have used Hill's 3 TDs this week. No Peterson or Ivory.

WR: Julio (3), Edelman (3), Landry (3), Beasley (2), Royal (1), Adams (0)

None of the top 3 registered in week 4. Welcome to the party Eddie Royal. No Landry, Adams(?) in week 5.

TE: Eifert (3), Cameron (2), V Davis (1), Celek (0)

This position is starting to look shaky at best. No Cameron.

K: Janikowski (3), Bullock (1), Scobee (0)

Speaking of shaky - and then there was one.

D: Raiders (2), Chargers (1), Saints (1)

Grab bag of mediocre

 
Finished number 2 by 0.1 not the usual contributes!

Don't want to jinx it but Maclin as a top 10 finisher was me preseason call of the year.

Like everyone else down to one shaky kicker that may still lose his job in carpenter.

Looking ok till week 9 unless a high % blow up happens like Big Ben and brown last year.

Still predicting that next week, week5 will be highest cut off till final cut.

 
QBs - Brady (2) (3340 owners) Dalton (2) (448) Flacco (0) (523)

Got through the Brady bye :)

RBs - Ingram (4) (1547) Matt Jones (2) (1203) Ivory (2) (2154) CJ Anderson (0) :bag: :bag: (1803) T West (0) (416)

No Ivory this week :unsure:

WRs - Julio (3) (4261) Megatron (3) (1134) J Brown (3) (1887) Harvin (2) (222) Adams (1) (5212) C Brown (1) (558) Royal (1) (3516) Hawkins (0) (100)

Royal heard my complaining I guess :)

TEs - Eifert (3) (2317) Olsen (2) (1956) R Rodgers (2) (1718) Chandler (0) (488)

No Olsen this week.

PKs - Gano (3) (613) Janikowski (1) (3206) Scobee (0) (3564)

Welp there goes Scobee. This week I only have Janikowski - officially a little nervous.

TDs - Giants (2) (272) Tampa Bay (1) (472) Atlanta (1) (543)

Atlanta gets on the board in a big way - I am happiest about how this has panned out out of all my choices in this contest.

Hmmm... I am the last man standing with Peterson/Lacy/Sankey. Not sure if that's good or not. Best single man odds is Garcon with only 130 owners alive. Surprisingly, Garcon is the only person on my team I have used every week as a WR2/Flex averaging 14.4 points per game.

 
QB: Ryan(3) Bradford(1)

RB: Forsett(3) Martin(3) Ivory(2) Hill(2) Michael(0)

No Ivory this week

WR: Julio(3) Stevie(3) Royal(2) Lockett(2) Adams(1) DGB(1) Bryant(0)

Made it thru Bryant's suspension

TE: Bennett(4) Olsen(2) Chandler(0)

No Olsen this week

K: Gano(3) Seabass(1) Scobee(0) Succop(0)

No Gano this week and Scobee is gone

DT: Denver(4) Miami(0)

Overall feel pretty good so far. Good to have Bryant although not sure how valuable he will be til Big Ben gets back. Scobee loss shouldn't matter much with 4 kickers. RBs finally performed last week see if they can keep it up. Miami DT does look like a total waste currently.

For those of you who have been knocked out already, I just want to encourage you with this; there are 18 people left with Jordy Nelson on their roster. :mellow:

Why do you say that? Several stud, high-owned players are on bye (Peterson, Cam, Olsen) and the games themselves don't feature many shootouts. The Pats game is the only projected blowout and it's away against a good running team so it may not get that out of control. Denver plays the worst pass defense but it's also away and road teams generally don't perform as well. I don't think the cut line is going to be more than 10% higher than last week.

46 teams with Arian Foster left. Hopefully he gets a full workload going forward.
Really love this. Another tidbit:

202 teams with Antonio Gates. Only 2 teams with both Foster and Gates.

There were only 5 total teams with both players. 3 went out in week 2. Two of us remain. Entry #105504 where you at buddy? That Brady/Bradford combo looks very nice, and I think better than the Bradford/Mariota/Fitz combo I'm running.

I really missed on Brady. And only because I decided I didn't want to rely on Fitz alone for one week, because I wouldn't get rid of Mariota. As it turns out, I would have been fine with just Brady and Mariota and taking a 0 this week.

 
I am one of two people left with the Dalton/Ingram/Ivory/Julio/Olsen combo :)

So far I'm 106th overall which I am 100% sure blows every other entry I've ever had out of the water.

Probably will get bounced before the end as usual but it's fun to feel like my entry is more of a contender for once. If only C.J. Anderson could get in gear :(

FBG knows something about my guys this week that no one else knows?

All players are "OUT?" or on a BYE except for 2 of my 3 crappy defenses. The multiple "BYEs" for Scobee is just unnecessary and mean, IMO.

Hmmm, apparently I'm in 57th place. Bad week actually knocked me down from top 30. Last year I spent most of the season in the top 10 before getting bounced late in the season.

My team isn't great, but should be solid for awhile:

QB: Brady, Brees, and Bridgewater

RB: Ingram, Abdullah, Duke, R. Mathews, Artis-Payne

WR: Julio, Cobb, Landry, Adams, Funchess, Lockett

TE: Olsen, Eifert, R. Rodgers

Plus three kickers and three defenses.

I have a fair amount of bye week issues in week 7, but otherwise doing okay. Always fun to see how far I can go, even though I've never won anything from this.

 
Live scoring bummped up the cut to 6250 (or something like that) but that's this comeing weeks cut the difference has caused me to be listed as out there but in on football guys witch do I believe?

 
I'm one of fifteen teams left that has both Sammy Watkins and Brandin Cooks.

That doesn't feel that great.

If I throw Julio in there, I'm one of three surviving. Proud to be in 2,741st place!

 
QB: Brady (2) Mariota (0) Taylor (2) Fitzpatrick (0)

RB: Miller (2) Gore (2) Martin (3) McFadden (0) FJackson (2)

WR: A Brown (4) S Johnson (4) Funchess (0) Wheaton (0) Lockett (2)

TE: Gronk (3) Olsen (2) Kelce (4)

K: Janikowski (1) Scobee (2) Succop (1)

D: Raiders (2) Falcons (1) Titans (1)

I am one of six teams that has the combination of Gronk, Olsen and Kelce that remains. My RB's and WR's are weak, especially with Big Ben going down and killing Brown's value with him. I barely survived week 4 and will likely be in survival mode each week.

Probably asked and answered, but how many Gronk owners were dumped last week?
Gronk owner and I advanced. Had Richard Rogers and M. Lewis. Unfortunately WR not looking too strong going into this week. :(

I barely slipped through with a 0 from the TE position this week which is why I was curious. I messed up trying to back him on his bye. I get Gates this week as a possible flex to pair with Gronk but was lucky to survive the oversight.

 
Not sure how I stumbled across this, but there are still 9 teams alive with the QB combo of Bortles, Bradford, Cousins, and Tyrod. All 4 on bye in Week 8.

Of those, 3 have no other QBs on the roster.

1 has Mark Sanchez, so that's 5 on bye.

And then there's one that has 15 QBs rostered! And that roster has only Gronk at TE, and still survived week 4.

Whomever you are, Vegas Vipers, you have certainly guarded against QB injury/ineffectiveness!

Let's see, started with 8 wrs. That's plenty, right? Brown and Funchess on bye, Royal and Adams out, Quick as a "Who knows?", Wheaton hurt and depending on Vick. I better get great weeks from Julio and John Brown and be looking elsewhere for flex scores this week.

We have a lot of guys in common, but but I got a great start from Hopkins. My flex options are very limited.

Very worried this week with M Bryant, Stevie, Adams, and Royal all likely out at WR. No Olson or Ivory either but more depth at those positions.

Watson with the early TD
 
In the 140s right now. Would like Calvin to get some more to make me feel safe.

Basically Dalton, Eifert, and Tampa Defense saving me this week.
