The bonus points do get out of hand. I looked at the league score board and saw someone had like 240+ points. I was like Whaaa?

Damn you John Fox! DeAngelo Williams is a great RB but how do you only give Jonathan Stewart 5 touches?
[/quote]

Here's a good stat for us.

J-Stew didn't score more than 10 fantasy points until game 6 last year. How did I miss that stat?

This isn't even fair, I just put in waiver claims for Arian Foster and Shiancoe, if these go through, my team is going to be ridiculous:

QB: Tony Romo - Kevin Kolb (not ready to drop Kolb just yet)
RB: Adrian Peterson, Ryan Mathews, Arian Foster, LeSean McCoy
WR: Marques Colston, Hakeem Nicks, Larry Fitzgerald, Mike Sims-Walker, Mike Wallace
TE: Tony Gonzalez, Visanthe Shiancoe

What the hell is foster doing on the Waiver wire? He should've been on a team before the season started.

I'm getting murdered in ATD's league and losing by .20 against PuRock in Sekou's league.

You got me in that game. You'll win. You have two running backs against my kicker and LB. Unless Harris picks off a defensive TD. You'll cruise.

Yeah possibly,this will be a very defensive game and I see us kicking more FG than scoring TD's,you never know.....

In another league of mine I have Antonio Gates and Thomas Jones against Joe Flacco and Boldin. As much as I want the Ravens to win tonight I hope they let Ray Rice run the ball in the redzone.

No clue, but I saw him sitting there on the wire and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to claim him. I have so much talent and so little space to use it all >.>;

Both of my games were fairly close. Both of my games were within 8 points. Lost 1 by 8 points and won my other by 6 points.

I ended up 3-0 in all the BR leagues. Two very close games in Yahoo.

Shonn Greene was the biggest disappointment of the night for me. Jerious Norwood scored more points for me than Greene, but I didn't start him of course. Luckily, Floyd narrowly got me enough points to slip past JO. I was pleasantly surprised with my team in ED20's league, considering I missed the draft and almost walked away with a win there too. There's about zero depth to that team, but hey... the starters aren't that bad.

1-1 between the two Yahoo leagues. San Diego's D really disappointed me in ATD's league. I should bounce back against the Fighting Mongooses(who is that, btw?).

San Diego disappointed in general, I had their defense as well in one of my ESPN leagues. San Francisco's defense was disappointing as well.

Yep. I'm dropping them in both leagues next week even though the Jags match-up appears favorable.

I see the 9ers D gettting smoked next week.

Yeah, if Seattle burned San Fran, I don't think they'll fair any better against New Orleans. Regardless of that though, I can't bring myself to drop them.

This is the reason why I love playing the matchups. Even in an 18 team league. I saw great D's for play in Week 2. KC @ Browns. Car vs. TB. Patriots vs. Jets.

Good Stuff, I hate being glued to one team. I played the TB Bucs in two leagues, and they did pretty well in week 1.

My original plan in the league I have the Chargers defense was to play match-ups, but I saw San Diego and figured it might pay off. Well, San Diego didn't look good, and it bit me in the butt. So back to the match-ups. Still not ready to drop San Fran though, they have an extremely talented defense...

Why do you say that? Still bitter after last year?

Forte might not be the rushing threat that people expected of him near the start of his career. But he showed this week that he can be very dangerous in the passing game, and still be serviceable rushing. I don't think you can write him off yet.

I agree that we've just seen the best from Matt Forte. Sell High!

If you watch the plays he did well on Sunday, they were all plays were the Lions Defense pretty much sucked. It wasn't so much Forte breaking loose. Here is another tidbit. Forte rushed for over 100 yards once last year, against the Lions!

Well the good thing, the Bears do play the Lions 1 more time this season. But I am not buying Matt Forte after week 1.

In my non BR.com-Yahoo league... I just found Megatron on waivers. How the hell is that possible? *Files Waiver to drop Burleson for Johnson as #2 on the Waiver list*

That would give me Greg Jennings, Chad Ochocinco, and Megatron as my starting wide outs, with Santana Moss, Davone Bess, Jacoby Jones, and Mike Sims-Walker as my back-ups.

I'll accept that trade JO.

I veteod it. But now I wish I didn't, because I play JO_75. I'd much rather see Garrard in his lineup than Romo.
