Well, the view from the top was nice for a week.
I thought the same thing after week 1! I'm interested to see the results this week. I know my starters did pretty well this week, but I think my bench scored maybe 6 points combined!

Just go to Dodds post and you can see what your team did. Search "survivor" in the Shark Pool if you can't find it.
 
If the Colts would ever heat up I'd be racking up. One passing TD between Wayne and Marvin combined through three weeks, yet, I think I may be in first place after tonite if SpOOfy gets passed by Nugget or I can pass Nipsey.

Nice! One thing, according to your numbers, Nugget had more points than TFox but you had TFox ahead of him. Is the # wrong, or just where he's listed. Hoping it is the number so Nugget isn't 1 game on our tails.

The number is correct (in my calc.'s) so Nugget would be 1 back.
 
Okay. Then it looks like Sonoran moves up 1 also.Thanks for doing this. It makes waiting for the "official" results a little more bearable.

 
More injuries:

Pennington: Gouda

Akers: Wheelhouse
Don't forget Warner too for me. That makes my injury total now...1. Boo Williams (Out)

2. Kurt Warner (out month)

3. Ronald Curry (Out)

4. David Akers (out week, maybe more)

Still hangin' though. :thumbup:

 
The thing about this contest though is it seems like it tests skill even less than regular FF. 1. The draft is so early that many changes to situation/ teams take place by the time the season starts2. Injury attrition rate which I suppose affects all FF, but you can't make moves to recover from them. You get a few #2 on the depth chart RB and wait for starters to get injured then watch your team climb in the rankings. Marvin got Mike Anderson in the 14th round. He goes in the 4th round if the draft was held 9/1

Even at that early date though, if you followed Cecil Lammey's columns who attended the Broncos camp, you could tell things looked pretty good for Anderson.

Another good week for you SpOOf. Can't believe there was an actual tie - and that only .7 points behind Gouda.

 
I'm nervous going into week 5, Kerry Collins, Kennison, and Shockey on bye are putting the hurt on my squad. They've been overachieving to this point, need some luck to maintain my position.

 
Updated my standings page through last week. (had a topsy turvy week and just didn't get to it)
I think I just lost DEUCE!!!
My receivers are HURTING. Jackson and AJohnson. Ugh. Figures, my running backs are just coming alive (Pittman, Bettis), but I can't start them all!I have a feeling I will have a big drop this week.

I repeat, I lost Deuce! No condolences from anyone? :no:

You have my condolences. Not only did you lose McAllister for the season, but Thomas Jones felt a "pop" and Tatem Bell has made a RBBC much more likely for your Mike Anderson starter. On the brightside, Tony Fisher might start producing...

I'm wondering how the rankings are gonna look at this week. I think we might see some big shifts.

 
Wow, injuries hurt big this week. Only 2 receivers even scored for my team. I drop big from first to third, 2 games back. And it doesn't look much better for next week.Too bad I can't trade Marvin some RBs for some WRs...

I actually finished better than I thought I would ONLY being three games back. That means I went 6-5 this week. Could I still hang for a while? Probably only if Priest goes down. That tie is like a fly on the screen I keep trying to swat.

Wow, my receivers are killing me now. Only having 3 receivers who actually take the field has me plummeting down the standings.C'mon Jackson and Johnson, get back out there!!!

 
Check your rearview mirrors, boys, cuz Worm has started his climb up the standings! He's no longer in last! :excited: lolMy page has been updated.

 
Griese and Losman are putting the pressure on Kerry Collins. Hope Randy gets healthy soon-Collins #'s could be hurting. Having 1 RB this week sucked too.

T Jones has me hangin by a thread. :(
 
Think I went 8-3 this week with no Deuce and no Kicker. I'll take that. Now I get to face a week 8 with both Wayne and Marvin out on BYE.

 
OK - I know we are not even half way, but do you think it is down to the top 4: RS, Nugget, RaiderG, and MikeyT, or are others still alive? Is anyone OUT? Again, just looking for everyone's opinion. And lastly, who is the favorite?

There are probably a few people out, but it isn't just those 4, I think. Look at the 1st few weeks. I was riding high, and staying at the top. I lose 2 receivers to injury, and I can't win more than 2 games a week. The same can happen to the top teams, or some of the middle teams could catch some lucky breaks and start moving up.

Nice to own 1/8th of the league's starting QBs. I'd trade two of them for a starting TE.Losing both my TEs before the season effectively eliminated me. Any ol' schmuck would have garnered me another 6 wins or so. Losing JJ was the final straw. I hit on a lot of my players, but whiffed big time on others.As predicted in my commentary...
Code:
Draft Strategy - Hasselbeck was the last QB in a tier of proven performers and seemed like a table pounding buy at 8.10. After surveying the teams behind me, I didn’t think he would make it back to me. I really wanted Moss or Stokley to solidify my WR corps with another explosive option, but felt one would be there at 9.3. As it turned out, strategically Hasselbeck was my worst pick of the draft and a classic case of being tempting by low hanging fruit and veering from a solid plan.
If I had picked Moss here rather then trying to finessee him for 4 more picks, I'd probably be at the top of the heap right now. I learned a very good lesson here. Fortunately Moss is on a majority of my rosters this year.
