Yea. He can't take more than 10 snaps before getting injured this year. He should really contemplate retirement.

I'm probably going to lose in one of my leagues tonight to someone who has Steve Hauschka as their kicker... if Hauschka gets more than 4 points, I lose...

hopefully he doesn't need to kick a field goal... or the team decided they found someone better

I'll be happy with a 21-0 shutout and a FF win to boot

The guy I played this week was 8-1 and I'm 6-3 looking at possibly a wild card spot in the playoffs. This person had Brady, Moss and Welker. I don't know how anyone let him get all 3 in one draft. I had Dallas Clark and Matt Stover and checking my matchup I'm going into tonight with Ray Rice and the Baltimore Defense left to somehow get me huge win. I'm down 41.5 points and need a big game from Rice and a big defensive game from the Ravens. Greg Mattison has been killing me, the defense has been getting single digit points for most of the year. I'm hoping Rice has a break out game and gets 200 yards and 2 or 3 TDs while the defense shuts out Cleveland and gets some sacks,interceptions and pick sixes.

Frustation is the word of the week for my fantasy team.

First I had to watch Brandon Marshall catch 2 balls for 100+ yards & 2 TDs.
Then I had to watch Tom Brady put up a show in the first half.

That left me 18 points down with Derrick Mason to go.

If only Derrick Mason scored a touchdown on that long catch & run. I would've tied. But no he was tackled and I lost my game.

I went from 1st to 4th. And if I lose my next game against the first place team, I will be 7th or 8th.

You know what is very frustrating in fantasy football. Is when your reciever has a big catch only to be tackled at the 1 yard line.

Had it happen to me three times today.

Mike Sims Walker - 28 yarder down at 1(Guy I was playing had Jones-Drew who got the easy TD)
Calvin Johnson - 30 yarder down at 1
Derrick Mason - 12 yarder down at 1

I could've really used those 18 points. Plus it would've been 6 less points for the team I was playing against.

Yep. Football really is a game of inches. Even in fantasy.

[Reddawn36]

wah lost by 5 points I hate matt schaub.... I had ricky williams in too who put up 30 points


however came back from another game where I had schaub chris johnson and a. johnson


if only schaub threw an int.... I would have tied the game I lost... I think

and would have won the game I won anyway

just when I think Megatron is returning to fantasy football greatness, he's likely out with a bum knee this week.... sighhhh

Agreed. It's very frustrating. He'd be going up against a freshly depleted defense of the Packers.

[RoflDogs]

My 2 starting receivers are Vincent Jackson and Marques Colston....they are double teamed every day

I started him. But that TD was about all he found. 2 catches and he scored me 9 FFP. Now I wish I didn't start him.

He was targeted in double digits.

I started Donald Driver.... 20 points.... my opponent used like 4 players and is 9 points ahead of me (Driver is my only player used thus far)

NE Defense won't score 39 points tonight on NFL.com Fantasy leagues..... will they?

You sound as safe as me. Up by 27 points with his kicker left to go. I'm hoping Gotowski doesn't kick 9 FGs and 1 XP.

I caught a lucky break. Apparently the guy who was in first never switched out Rothlisberger. I heard he was on vacation or something. So looks like I'll be in first with one week left (reg season) in the money league.

nice, I'm up by 75 points in another league and he's got the same kicker as your opponent... if I lose... that kicker would most definately deserve league MVP

Jackson's been killing me the last couple weeks. I finally benched him, even though they're playing Cleveland this week.

Well, I put Ochostinco in, they're playing Detroit. Luckily, I already locked up a playoff spot, so it really doesn't matter.

Reggie Wayne (never take him out)and Brandon Marshall, they're at KC. Jackson's only had like 6 catches in the last 3 games. Everyone seems to be double covering him and taking him out of the game. Unfortunately for me, SD seems to have rediscovered its running game somewhat.

thats because people are being extremely cautious of defending in the air...

just so you know... browns NT Shaun Rodgers is out.... could be bad for their already non existant pass rush... in the end its up to you.. but I'm starting V. Jackson...

just so you know Ochocinco hasn't been too hot in his last few games either (i think)
