I've never seen it this bad as far as moping. It's probably because of daily leagues where people can lose money on a weekly basis instead of working trades or working waivers like normal.

perfect buy low....he got all but 2 touches last game among the RBs...the backups were garbage with Dwyer and are worse without him. Ellington on a bye this week and can rest up that foot for 2 weeks.... a 1-2 team thin at RB is going to be absolutely desperate to fill a spot next week. Flip a Donald Brown for him and you'll be very happy.

Joique Bell 2013 > 2014
Montee Ball was way too expensive. Being the bellcow in a great offense usually is a "can't miss", but there are exceptions to every rule, it appears he might be it
Stafford doesn't have to throw for 400 yards and 3 TDs for the Lions to win games, unfortunately they have figured this out. Somehow with Bell and Stafford off to slow starts, the Lions still look like a playoff team
Em Sanders is a stud. You've prob already missed the boat to get him, most teams won't be able to double him, and he will be the difference maker on a lot magic football teams
Antonio Brown is officially a top 3 WR in PPR, he is, don't argue it
If Rashad Jennings stays healthy, and you got him in the 4th or later, you made out like a thief in the night.

Romo had some of his best games with broken ribs. Cam is younger and hopefully that means higher testosterone. That tackle at the knees was the scariest thing for Carolina fans.Ladsud said:

Right. The playing field is the same for everyone. EVERY year first round RB goes down. Not even the biggest fantasy expert can boast over %70 success rate when predicting players. That's why you roster a whole team. If you miss on a couple guys you make up for it with depth, and win your league by being the 2-3% better at picking players than your opponents.New excuses, same boohoo'ing.93_Confirmed said:

Regarding Stafford, the DET defense is too good I think for him to put monster numbers up (as you alluded), especially if they are not willing to pass up by a score or 2. I wonder if a guy like Bortles could outscore him ROS with the crappy JAX def?

As awful as the 3 turnover, touchdownless game was, he is still a decent start and will prob be more like a QB9-12 than the 3-6 you were hoping for when drafting him. If you drafted him, you basically don't have any choice but to start him.

He has struggled some in the past against GB, so I knew it was a possibility. But I'm not afraid to take chances and play matchups (see championship week a few years back-Matt Moore v NE)
DAL, PHI, WAS, JAX all look pretty beatable through the air...
I don't feel like I "have" to start him

Obviously not every single rookie WR is going to put up a great seasn, but you've got Hilton from the year before, and Julio Jones/AJ Green/Torrey Smith the year before that, and Mike Williams the year before that... It used to be a rarity that a rookie WR can put up a FF relevant season in their first year. In recent years it seems to be at least one a year now.
Banger
Footballguy
and with the talent of this year's class it will likely be more than in most years. You've got Benjamin, Cooks, Watkins all in essentially #1 roles...you have guys like Matthews, Robinson, Evans, Lee, Brown and others that are solid prospects and if a thing or two break in their favor they have the ability to be solid contributors.

I'm not complaining that I lost, I'm complaining about the reasons for the losses. I spend a considerable amount of time scouting, researching, working the wire, negiotiating trades, etc. and just about every week my losses result from obscure situations which couldn't be accounted for, which I listed in my post above.

randomness was always and will always be there. the amount of good and easily available information has made it significanlty easier for poor players to be competitive. What's worked for me over the past couple years is keep an open roster spot or two and to be more preemptive and pick up guys before they blow up. Last week I picked up Bortles in every league I'm in...this week I'll likely drop Reggie Wayne and pick up Robinson...people may think that's nuts but this game is about getting guys with upside/explosiveness. I'm struggling in my big league as well due to a lot of odd ball situations (Gates - 3 tds and Thomas 3 tds in 1st 3 games) but you have to keep firing bullets and over time you'll get breaks that go your way.I'm not complaining that I lost, I'm complaining about the reasons for the losses.

Exactly. When pressed into duty, these days whether the player is a rookie or not seems largely irrelevant if it's obvious they've got the goods on the field. WIth all the new rules about defensive hold/etc, it's just much easier to play WR these days compared to 10 years ago.
A lot of fantasy analysis still says stuff like "... but the track record for rookie WRs is not very good". I think that is now bordering on irrelevant. Yes, rookie WRs don't put up numbers when they are not in a good situation and given opportunities. However that can be said about ANY WR.

Maybe you have hit some bad luck in the beginning. The "luck" factor will give us wins and losses, just as it does for everyone else. We can still take an 0-3 team to the Championship. Better to struggle early on, and get hot down the stretch. Some of these "poor coaching decisions" are actually smart coaching decisions, which is why they are a coach. We aren't at every practice and didn't spend the whole off season with the team. The "out of the blue" poor performance could be a one week thing or the start of a trend that carries through the season. RBBC's can be predictable, we know what we are getting into when we roster a committee player, or someone that has a quality back-up. How players get used go back to the "poor coaching decision" comment. After three weeks trends are developing and a whole off season worth of speculation isn't worth a few solid weeks of actual competitive play. Sometimes you hit it on your draft and your roster doesn't change the whole season, that takes you to the championship. That's the less likely scenario. More likely than not it is the trade and WW move that does it.randomness was always and will always be there. the amount of good and easily available information has made it significanlty easier for poor players to be competitive.

Ride out the waves and don't get caught up on the week to week variations. Victor Cruz might be an example of this. I will start him knowing full well I will get sub 10pt performances as well as get a 25+ here or there. He's good, they need to get him the ball.

I don't think anyone can argue against the point that RBBCs are at an all time high, which creates a number of issues in terms of determing running back value. Some teams are using 3 or even 4 RBs in a given game. I don't know if injuries are at an all time high but there are certainly quite a few this year already as evidenced by what we saw in week 2.

The Ravens and Falcons are both 2-1. They have the #1 D and #6 offense in the NFL by points.

I think a lot of the recent "boohoo this isn't fun anymore" boils down to that. In one of my long standing leagues one guy used to perpetually finish in the top 3 but mainly because he was the only one who had access to all the games on Sundays and knew the most about the game itself. As we all got more into it, and more and more fantasy "material" has become available, his dominance has waned. With everyone knowing everything, there is a bit more information to parse. Some people will view this as random, and some will view this as skill. In reality it's a combination of both.Right on, work that wire, get a couple buy lows and you're back in it.

Maclin in that offense is going to do some damage......I regret passing on him as much as I did.....I really didn't think he would come back as strong as he has

good time to try and deal for DEN players not named Sanders.....coming of a tough loss and heading into bye week there could be some vulnerable owners that allow you to get them at a discount.....after the bye I expect things to get back to the video game type numbers we saw last year...you may not have another chance to acquire them at a discount...
Kelce is pretty good
Chip Kelly knows things
Keenen Allen was way overdrafted and we did see his ceiling last year.....owners who were chasing last years stats without really looking into them are going to be very disappointed.....

If you're streaming defenses, taking whoever is playing against Jacksonville is a good strategy (Chargers in week 4).
Arizona is finding ways to win, and Larry Fitzgerald isn't one of them.
Philly games are the most exciting, and fantasy shoot-outs. Start your QBs and WRs against Philly.
Washington's run defense is legit. Sit your RBs against Washington.

It is a crazy year so far. Lots of players suspended, game time decisions, getting injured particularly through games. The luck factor seems to racheted up a notch this season. It just going to get tougher with most of my team on a week 4 bye. I have a snowball's chance in hell of winning this week. I have to accept that it may not be my year again and deny my desire to make a bad dynasty trade so I can score some points.Bobby Guano said:

Couldn't be more wrong. For some reason Larry still pulls double teams and John Brown and Michael Floyd are getting single covered and getting open consistently.
Totally true, but from a fantasy perspective, Larry is a bust so far. I think he may come back later in the year as teams shift their defensive focus, but right now he's riding bench.
Solid advice, but bad example.
Anyone who owned Cruz last year can tell you how long it's been since he's had a decent game.

Considering you are complaining about the "sheer randomness of the league" I think a random Patrick Willis penalty that lead directly to a TD is entirely relevant to your complaint. Also 8% of all fantasy teams on MFL started John Brown which seems like a lot to me.1) A random Patrick Willis penalty has no relevance to this and 2) no one started John Brown this week so those 2 TDs don't mean anything. Let me guess though, you're a SF fan?Sometimes Patrick Willis gets an unnecessary roughness penalty on a perfectly clean and legal hit. #### happens, accept it and move on.I'm not complaining that I lost, I'm complaining about the reasons for the losses.

Again you are focusing on the negatives and frankly the RBBC complaint applies to every owner if every fantasy league so if it is negatively impacting you then you probably didn't do your homework.
Sorry if it bums you out that Darrel Young (speaking of guys no one started) gets TDs and Alfred Morris doesn't but that's life.
I agree with shader, if you aren't having fun then stop playing.
And I am not a niner fan.
They didn't lose on a coin toss, lol.... they lost because they played no defense in OT when it mattered most. They were beat fair and square.

I think your statement says "and lost" but you then come to the conclusion that they can win. Only the final score counts. Denver has lost to Seattle twice in seven months in two different seasons. If they were going to win they'd have done it.
"Averaging 4.7 yards per play, the Broncos offense wasn't any more effective than the one that was stymied in the Super Bowl XLVIII rout. Until Denver's defense came through with a safety and an interception in the fourth quarter, the offense had run only one play in Seattle territory since a first quarter field goal. Nearly every catch was contested." Link
