Down by 6 points and I have Decker and Thomas playing tonight. I wonder if I might pull it off?

LOL probably.. i'm down by 22.5 pts and only have Thomas playing

 

[vi edit]

I'm down by 8 with Payton to play going up against Decker and Matthews. Yeah. Not winning tonight.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Need 9 points in one ATOT league (I have Manning, McGahee, and Broncs D.. he has Michael Floyd)

and 13 points in the other ATOT league (I have Rivers and McGahee)

and in another league the dude had less than 20 points with 2 to play but one of them was fucking Rodgers, now I'm only up 7 with Gates vs. Matthews for him.

So I'm all over the place but pretty confident I can get at least 2 of 3.

I'm down 23 with Decker and Mathews vs. Peyton

HA! Suffice it to say you and I will be cheering absolute opposite tonight.

Thomas, Tamme, Stokely, McGahee...yeah those guys can put up 5TD's between them. None to Decker. Unless he get's tackled on the 1 YD line.

Good news for LeShoure owners: Jahvid Best was not cleared to return to practice today.

Bad news for Best: It's been exactly a year since his last concussion knocked him out of the game. Pretty sure his NFL career is over. Sad, but he was a known high injury risk going into the draft. I think he had a few concussions in his collegiate career too.

Same with Colts WR Austin Collie. Dude was in incredible, out of this world receiver (my wife's jersey from his rookie year) but his career is over. He so much as has a hit, and he's out of the game for weeks. I think I told you guys - don't touch him, too fragile.

I'm side tracking, but you don't fuck around with concussions, it is literal bruising of the brain and vessels. I don't know how Welker survived that hit yesterday, he got rocked.

lol, how about falling down on his way to a TD? cost peyton an int though

 

[BrokenVisage]

Woohoo! Rivers to Gates combo coming through for me after all, sorry to whoever I'm playing in the ATOT leagues.

 

[SunnyD]

Yep, Decker/Thomas combo for the win. I'll be starting those two pretty much all year long. Good thing my WR stable is stacked, since my RBs are kinda "meh" right now.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Wow.. the Manning brothers are fucking magical man. Imagine being their dad.. or on the other hand their non-football brother lol

 

[MetalMat]

Rivers stinks, Im dropping him like a rock. I might as well go with waiver wire qbs.

 

[eits]

fucking rivers... weakest, slowest passes i've seen from him EVER. dropping him for amendola and keeping kolb as my backup.

[eits]

now you guys know where eli gets his mouth-breathing dummy face from.

 

[MetalMat]

I think my ATOT league season is pretty much over but who knows, I might be able to make a run if I can get some more consistency from my WRs and RBs

 

[T2urtle]

yes. why would you give up a great running back under mike shanahan AND a great tight end for a great running back?

personally, i think morris is a better running back. he's solid and he's facing some pretty awful run defenses coming up.

i don't see the point in this trade.

Trade got accepted, hopefully no vetos.

Either way I they aren't starters on my team. I think Richardson has a huge upside. Rg3 is robbing morris of yards and TDs.

 

[oznerol]

Just traded away Steve Johnson for Fred Jackson...

 

[brainhulk]

Juan Castillo got canned

 

[Connoisseur]

Just traded away Steve Johnson for Fred Jackson...

Ehh. Spiller's got a lot more upside I think and Steve Johnson has a lot less competition.

 

[MetalMat]

Got a trade offer in my 10 team standard league. I give Chris Johnson for his Michael Turner. Kind of a meh trade, my other running backs are MJD, Willis McGahee, Doug Martin, Green-Ellis and we only have 2 RB slots with no flex.

Stay put, not really gaining anything with that trade as both players are putting up bad numbers. Chris Johnson has more upside at this point since Atlanta just passes and passes and passes.

Bye week blues! Both my QBs Peyton Manning and Michael Vick are on bye. Need to pick up a QB off the waivers. My options:

Josh Freeman against NO (allowing 6th most points to QBs)
Ryan Fitzpatrick against Ten (allowing 2nd most points to QBs)
Matt Hasselbeck against Buf (allowing most points to QBs)
Brandon Weeden against Colts (allowing 14th most points to QBs)

I am leaning towards Ryan Fitz. What do you guys think?
