Dave's House of Pain

[Dave]

Hey, in my other league (24 teams) I scored the third highest score so far this year...and lost because the guy I played had the top score of the year. My team is the #3 scoring team in the 24-team league and I'm 0-2 and in last place in my Division.

 

[Sparhawk]

I wasted a stellar performance by Aaron Rodgers only to LOSE????

189 passing yards, 1 td and 1 int is a "stellar performance'? He came in 10 points under fantasy estimates.

Might wanna recheck those stats. Jordy Nelson alone had over 200 yards receiving.

Those are directly off the the Yahoo match up page for the league.[DOUBLEPOST=1410913339,1410913100][/DOUBLEPOST]Looks like there should be a major stat correction there...NFL.com showing 346 and 3td...[DOUBLEPOST=1410913395][/DOUBLEPOST]or maybe Yahoo being stupid and switching to week 1 stats....

Yeah. Rodgers: 348 yards passing, 3 TD's, 1 2 Pt conversion, 28 yards rushing, one lost fumble.

And, because two of my wide receivers decided to get hurt/take a dump last week, I lose by 15 points. Oh, and the Defending World Champions get whacked by the Chargers.

 

[BErt]

...well my brilliant acquisition of Bobby Rainey has certainly panned out.

 

[Dave]

For everyone else.

 

[Covar]

... They said Roddy White was going to play last night.

 

[BErt]

they said he was inactive around 5:30 PM EST. I only know this because I heard on my way home from work.

 

[jwhouk]

I am afraid to look at some of the fantasy football scores after last night.

 

[Dave]

Only Julio really had a stellar night. Oh, and Hester, even though nobody probably had him. The defenses each had a TD, but the TB defense gave up too many points.

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

Thank you Julio. Wherever you are

 

[Tress]

I have Matt Ryan and Julio Jones in my family and friends league. I've already got a 79 point lead on my dad after 1 game.

Ouch. Gonna be a tough uphill climb for him.

 

[jwhouk]

Time for Mr. Rodgers' Neighborhood to get busy.

[Officer_Charon]

... I need to start paying attention to player reports the night before...

 

[Dave]

Damn, @jwhouk, where the fuck did that TE come from? Talk about coming out of nowhere!

 

[jwhouk]

I had to find a replacement for Pitta, and he was the best option according to my research.

I'll take it if it means a win this week. But Sunday's coming.

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

Fingers crossed that Tom Brady just completely shits the bed this week

 

[Dave]

Don't care about Brady, I just need Ridley and the NE Def to step up.

 

[Sparhawk]

Fingers crossed that Tom Brady just completely shits the bed this week

I'm aiming to take you DOWN!

 

[Sparhawk]

AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

I LOVE YOU TOM BRADY

 

[Null]

I LOVE YOU TOM BRADY

He was playing more like Mark Sanchez.

 

[Sparhawk]

He was playing more like Mark Sanchez.

More like Matt Schaub combined with David Carr.

 

[jwhouk]

More like Kyle Orton.

I'm now second in my division! http://fantasy.nfl.com/league/1570182/team/4/gamecenter

Edit: Okay, 1st in division, 2nd in League, it seems. http://fantasy.nfl.com/league/1570182

 

[jwhouk]

After this week, I believe I may need to start calling him "Charlie Don't Win."

[klew]

If I have the lead going into Monday night, with the only player left to play, would it be unsporting to bench him to prevent negative points?

 

[Dave]

I don't think you'd lose that many points, but if you want to knock yourself out.

 

[jwhouk]

The only time I would do that, TBH, is if it was a playoff weekend.

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

Excuse me while I walk into traffic

The projection in my matchup this week was that I'd lose by 25 points (150 to 175).

Currently: I have 126.15, my opponent has 88.73. All of his players are done, I have 2 that will play tomorrow night (Michael Crabtree and Justin Smith), projected for 13 and 6 points respectively.

Unless somehow those two players score -40 points, I'll be 5-1, with a 4 game winning streak.

My biggest mistake? Taking the matchup's advice and sitting the Eagles DEF and starting the Panthers DEF.
