Well, that was the quickest I've ever gone out. Week 6 or 7 was my worst until now.
If I have to blame anyone other than myself, it's my top two picks: Mike Evans and Devonta Freeman.

Awards and notable teams of the week.
Strongest Living Team: Through week 2, 2372 teams are averaging at least 200 points per week. Somehow, four of those teams managed to be eliminated this week (see Icarus Award). Entry 107906 leads the pack, averaging 247.05 points.
Icarus Award: Entry 112054 had the 13th-highest score in the contest in week 1, only to crash and burn in week 2, missing the cutoff by 1.50 points. Looking at the team, mediocrity rather than injury was the culprit: Christian McCaffrey’s bad week really hurt.
Keep Your Day Job Award: Entry 111816 had the second-lowest score in week 1 and the lowest score in week 2. This team is averaging 78.5 points and is the only team averaging under 100. It’s a gimmick team with 15 QBs and only 5 RB+WR+TE, meaning they could never have a full complement of scoring players. The worst team that looks legitimate is Entry 111569, averaging 104.125 points per week.
Notable Teams:
QBs: All the teams with 13 or more QBs were eliminated with the exception Entry 106082, who held on with 14 QBs.
RBs: There are two 12-RB teams, Sugarbears (Entry 100544) and Double Great (Entry 104347). They both survived.
WRs: Entry 112604 rosters 15 WRs (nobody else has more than 13) and survived quite comfortably There are 37 teams with 11 or more WR and only one (Entry 106059) was eliminated this week.
TEs: Nobody entered the season with more than 7 TE. The three 7-TE teams—Road Rage (Entry 104111), Entry 102377 and Enter 110983--all survived.
PKs: There were two entries with 20 kickers and two others with 18. All four were eliminated. The lone 9-kicker team (Entry 111271) is still hanging on.
DEFs: Nobody went wacky with defenses this year. Three teams have seven of them and two of those teams survived. That’s kind of boring.
And me, you ask? I’m alive and doing great: among the 11,000 living teams, I’m in 260th overall, and came in 2911th this week.
More categories next week, and to come later...

And now the players:
The Biggest Mistake: The overall player survival rate is 87.4%. Only 20% of teams that rostered Andrew Luck are alive, perhaps not surprisingly. But only 5 teams had him rostered. If you’re interested, Entry 112305 rostered Luck and survived. So far, the biggest mistake is Trey Burton. He’s the active player with the lowest survival rate, 61.7%. Honorable mentions to Tarik Cohen and Deshaun Watson: they cost more than Burton, are owned on a lot more teams, and have survival rates below 70%.
The Survivor: There is only one player who can’t be found on an eliminated team. DeMarcus Robinson has a 100% survival rate.
The Bargain: DeMarcus Robinson again. He only cost you $4, and if you picked him, you’re alive.
The Parasite: Keith Kirkwood, despite scoring zero points so far, has a 92.8% survival rate. Breshad Perriman and Jaron Brown are also over 90% (Perriman scored 3 points week 1, but none this week).
The Martyr: Aaron Rodgers put up a perfectly fine 22.45 points this week, and yet his survival rate was only 70.7%. Don’t blame him for your failures!

883rd place in week 2 with a score of 198.5. I am thrilled to be that high. I scored 223.7 in week 1 which I believe was my highest score ever
I tried to see my week 1 place, but when I click on last week’s status, it shows week 2.
Is there any way to see my standing in week 1?
i remember looking at my team and the top of each column was empty, in other words I didn’t pick any top level studs I saw that and knew I would be out in week 1 or 2 which is why I am thrilled with my score

Back in the old days, we didn't have no fancy schmancy calcomatic tools to tabulate our scores. We had to do it all by hand, every single week. And we liked it that way, we loved it!

dude knew exactly that Daniel Jones would begin starting right when Brees got hurt.-QG

Bummed that I ended up removing Conley though :( (I did have Dede on some combos on trail - ended up with zero Jag investment)

I don't think I ever did an official write-up, but here's the rooster: https://subscribers.footballguys.com/contest/2019/102497.php
QBs: Lamar Jackson | Sam Darnold | Derek Carr
Not a ton here to say other than sing Lamar Jackson's praises. One note: I didn't do myself any favors on Lamar's bye week - Sam Darnold @JAX and Derek Carr @HOU
RBs: Saquon Barkley | Christian McCaffrey | Duke Johnson | Matt Breida
Only rolling four deep, not a great look. Saquon Barkley gets ARI on Carolina's bye week and Christian McCaffrey plays ATL during New York's.
WRs: Tyreek Hill | John Brown | TreQuan Smith | Josh Gordon | Taylor Gabriel | DJ Chark
Aside from Hill's unfortunate injury I'm mostly pleased with these selections; there's a lot of potential for big games here. Gabriel comes across as a bit of a dud thus far.
TEs: Zach Ertz | Vance McDonald | Mark Andrews
I aimed to grab three studs at TE and things look positive two weeks in; lot of season left to play. I wouldn't be surprised if my per week usage averaged 2 scores from these three.
PK: Randy Bullock | Steve Hauschka | Austin Seibert
TD: CIN | NYJ | TB
Cheap and no bye overlaps in their respective positions.
Wishing everyone good health and favorable outcomes.
