Yeah, Brees is starting to hit his stride(not that he was terrible earlier this season).

[b]As for your QB situation, that's fantasy football.[/b]

Yep. Not upset about it. You roll with the punches. Next week I'll probably start Fitzy and Cutler will have a monster game.

I have Maclin and Tuck left vs T.Cole and a kicker tonight down by 13.

[XxSizzleXx]

I had closed the gap to two, but with that FG now down by 5. Need a Maclin TD. If I lose this game it's going to really clog up spots 6-10.

[XxSizzleXx]

Glad to see Maclin hasn't let me down, now up by 12.

3 more yards and you get the 100 yard bonus.

Happened right after the post, looks like the East will do some good representing in the playoffs being half the teams if this keeps up.

You play Elmos and your team lights it up that week, it's almost a fact haha.

Yup

I've been done for a while in ATD's league but if I can get to 7-7, I'll be happy with this season.

[PuRock]

I was getting a bit nervous in ER's league. 2 of my last 3 games have been losses. And there is a log-jam of teams in the middle of the pack 8-3.

But look today at that entire log jam have clinched the playoffs. There is now only 1 playoff spot remaining.

[PuRock]

I'm amazed that flubberdubber was able to get Jacob Tamme despite him being in first for the entire season. We must've all been sleeping on that one.

And I'm sitting pretty at 8th with a 7-4 record, with a two game cushion between the teams tied for 9th. Never would have thought I'd be in the mix when I missed the draft.

My climb towards .500 continues baby! About to be 5-7 come Tuesday.

I'm glad you won that game. Since I couldn't come up with an upset this week, I need to stay tied with JO (or have a better record, of course) to hold the division lead.

Interesting. I face you next week and for what it's worth, the projected scores are very close. Should be fun...

I'm trying to decide between Shonn Greene/Ricky Williams and Aaron Hernandez/Brent Celek. The New England tight end situation is so erratic.

Gronkwski seems to have supplanted Hernandez as the primary receiving TE in NE and Vick never looks for Celek so if I were you, I'd be deciding between Greene and Ricky.

Agree for the most part. I'm not completely sold on Gronkowski being the man at tight end for New England just yet. He's gotten more looks lately, but Hernandez turned it on earlier on in the season. Celek has been a complete disappointment however, no arguing that. Sadly, Celek's the safety net for the back-up quarterback... not the starter.

You could be right. Hernandez is more athletic so his back-seat in the passing game is a bit surprising. Things might change though.

[PuRock]

I have Andre Johnson in both Yahoo teams. And looks like he'll get suspended for at least one game *smacks head*

Hopefully its only for the one game before the playoffs start.

To anyone in ED-Reed20s league, I am interested in trading some of my players for a decent WR or RB. I will trade Visanthe Shiancoe, Roy Williams, or Antrel Rolle; or all three for a decent RB or WR. Send me a message on here or on our Fantasy league if your interested...

Sorry I never got back to your message about trading Visanthe. I had a much better deal on the table for Tamme.

I'm hoping I sold high on Holmes and got a top 2 TE for the playoff run. Hopefully that is the missing link on my team. Celek/Boss weren't cutting it.

Good job on the win against me. I let Tom Brady's game go to waste.....er.....McFadden/Vinetari/couple others let Brady's performance go to waste.

[PuRock]

Man I fell to 6th place in ER's league despite being the only team with 1400+ points. Looks like my luck has ran out.

At least all the playoff spots have been locked up.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Unless something changes, Lowrider and I will be playing two weeks in a row: This week and in the first round of the playoffs.

Edit: Forgot I play LR this week, so I can't see us playing back to back.

After a slow start in ED20's league, I really picked up speed. Second in Points For and second longest winning streak. Nearly the polar opposite of what I'm doing in my own league...

Hey no prob man, Ive just been looking for some better WRs thats all. Any suggestions you have as to who you think is pretty decent that i could pick up off Waivers?

Thanks, at the start of the week I was honestly expecting to lose this week, in fact I would have if some of your players would have produced that didnt. But as they say the NFLs a week to week baises so as one player could do well one week, he could suck the next. But yeah, good luck in the playoffs; maybe we will have another matchup, who knows.

I see you have taken over the #1 spot with that win as well as the only team with 10 wins. Me and Reediddy who have been near the top all season have fell from grace this week since we have both suffered back-to-back losses.

[XxSizzleXx]

Yeauh yeauh, locked down a playoff spot in the 16 man, also would love to play 858 first in ER's league.

Yeah I saw that too. It surprised me after not doing that well last year in a friend of mines league. I would have been happy staying at 2nd or 3rd tho, its closer for the waiver wire there.

Yea it sucks when you are at the top for most the season and you get to watch most good waiver wire picks pass you by. Luckily you are at the top at the end, most of the really good pickups come early on anyways.

But that's the good thing about being #6 this week. It'll be the best waiver wire position I've ever had and not a totally bad week for pickups.
