No matter what I do at QB in Pro, it seems I'm doomed. Peyton Manning a total dud. I start Mariota week 6 and he sucks it up and gets hurt. McCown this week, same story. Am I personally cursing these QBs to do poorly? Should I quit fantasy football? Starting to feel bad if my aura of bad fantasy mojo might be hurting guys careers.

I have Dalton (#3 QB in points) on my bench, sent you a trade proposal.

Thanks for making it easy for me and entertaining my constant complaining about my QBs.

Got away with one in D1. GG Chabuda. I bet you'd have one if you had a logo/avatar.

It seems fairly obvious that I'm going nowhere in Dynasty this league, so.... I'm putting Matt Forte on the block. If you need a pretty good, solid running back, make me an offer. Looking for youth.

Not trying to get anyone in trouble here, but I'm wondering how well we can police this from happening:

Brandon LaFell played for the Patriots last week. He dropped six balls, but that's beside the point.

My recollection is that fleaflicker generally does a good job of not letting you set your lineup if a player is invalidly on IR. If I had to guess, they set their lineups while he was still on a IR valid injury setting, then later in the week he was upgraded from Out to Questionable or whatever. I suppose they would/should have to drop someone to make room for him on their roster, making the dropped player available on waivers, but I don't see an easy solution and I see only marginal gain.

$.02

I agree, they should have their best player sent to me.

Thanks, kaos!

I was still able to adjust my lineup with him on IR today, so clearly something isn't working.

I believe you aren't allowed to make any roster move while an IR-ineligible player is on IR. You can still make lineup changes but you can't add new players while keeping them on IR.

Fleaflicker is currently predicting that this weeks tie will finish

Myself 156.6 v 155.76 Neozilla

Fine margins...

In another league here are my choices at RB this week

Jeremy Hill
Darren McFadden
Dion Lewis
Duke Johnson

I can run two RB and one WR/RB flex. I'm thinking Hill and McFadden in the two RB spots for sure but not sure about Lewis and Johnson. I did read Ian Rapport said Lewis is playing tonight.

As tough as it is to recommend starting a Patriots RB on any given week I think you have to go Lewis there. Much higher upside than Duke.

Yeah, I'd probably do Lewis.

I haven't paid attention to Johnson's snap count recently, but he was definitely on the field a lot.

McFadden is the one I wouldn't trust because he's much like playing a NE quarterback. Will they actually run him 35 times again? Who the hell knows?!?

Lewis, if he plays, will get targets.

Dammit I hate Thurs night football.

I had DeVante Parker in last week because I had other WRs on bye. No way in the world I would have played him this week. Didn't get a chance to sit down at the PC tonight until after kickoff. Blargh.

I'm right there with you except for me it's the fact that Dion Lewis and his 18 first-half points is still sitting on my bench from being out last week.

I mean come on guys it's only been around for 9 years at this point.

Still sucks. Always will.

Took a chance on Dion tonight. Thanks for being rational this week, Belichick. I'd rather predict the stock market.

Yeah, I've got Brady, Lewis, and Gronk in my other league. Needless to say I'm in pretty good shape going into Sunday.

Have Lewis on my bench in pro. You're welcome tburn, though honestly, the only person I would have considered benching for him is Stefon Diggs. That team is just too stacked that I have good players I have to bench each week.

Definitely not the line you'd expect from an undefeated team vs a 2-5 team.

wtf ukick, crush tboon he's in my division. If you were playing me you sure as hell wouldn't have "left Lewis on the bench"

I friggin' warned you guys.

Hmm am I playing Brees or Manning?

The first week I blindly start Dalton without even checking who Eli is playing against he sh*ts the bed and Eli scores 38 points. It probably doesn't matter since I think the Steve Smith injury torpedoes any shot I had anyway.

So does my grandpa get to stare at you all and consider you all big dummies or no?

Another Sunday down, another Sunday I didn't bother checking my fantasy scores.

I may be dropping out after this year. At least from Keeper.
