Ok so I'm gonna need Mark Ingram to inexplicably catch a one-day flu or get kidnapped by Vic Mackey before Monday night

Lucky for you his coach hates him so Ingram could wind up getting zero touches while completely healthy depending on what side of the bed Sean Payton wakes up on tomorrow.

I'ma push Payton to the floor
Peterson splitting carries will help too, but I need my crew to blow it up (Ingram's the last player I'm facing in 2 of my leagues)
This week is looking pretty good with me and my opponent each having a RB and DEF still to play. Obviously some players missed their projections while others surpassed them. Typical of every week. Only real disappointment was Kelvin Benjamin. 1 catch. Ouch. Scam promised he'd have a big year 
. Oh and I could have replaced Janikowski with his handcuff who was superb, but I'm not gonna beat myself up over that. Hopkins is a fine K choice to carry before dropping him for someone else when bye week comes around.
EDIT: Don't speak ill of Ingram. Pray he does well. That would seal the deal for me this week.

I'm up 110-60 against my opponent with with Phillip Rivers left to go, and he has Ted Gunn Jr left to go. I should be ok.

I'm down 24 going into tommorrow with Michael Thomas and Melvin Grodon. Gonna be tough but at least its possible
From what I've gathered you are notorious for having bad luck. That bodes well for me.

Should have paid Uber to consult
Is that confirmed? I think Kerwynn Williams is next up on the depth chart but I don't know a thing about him.

Anyone else like how Yahoo! now posts lifetime win-loss records for anyone's fantasy profile in your league?
You can see who the sharks are at a glance no matter what league you happen to be in.
If they've got a .600 winning percentage or better and a bunch of trophies to their name spanning a huge chunk of games, they probably know what they're doing.

Bad week for me. Jamison Crowder, Cousins, Kelvin, and Leveon all did diddly squat. I am up 3. He's got Dez and I have Hunter Henry tomorrow night. I'll lose.

Thomas. Way higher ceiling, way more established and does well even with a garbage QB. WR2 on the Giants have a tendency of doing piss all and even with OBJ out, you have to give him a game to see what he can do.
It's fine, but I think it takes into account my first year ever where the league was a joke and the commish (my friend who sucks in our current real league) decided to take all the players from another team when the person quit. Basically making that entire year a sham to pad his ego. But whatever.

I've had bad vibes about the Redskins offense all off-season.
Bell will rebound.
Benjamin has plenty of talent but he hasn't really lived up to his potential since his rookie year so I'm not sure what the deal is with him and would be concerned given how strongly the Panthers leaned on the run today.

Good lord, Week 1 was a massacre for injuries of early round peeps

True. Our current commish (not my idiot friend who I spoke about earlier) already has a team that I think is prime to finish at the bottom, but now he lost Robinson who may be done for the year.

It's early but I'm feeling pessimistic since I have DJ. Already have Kerwynn but he's not a DJ

Looks like you made the right call, Marshall was poop in this game until the last few minutes when he finally touched the ball.

Jamison Crowder is going to be one of those bust this year, right?
Eli was awful tonight (maybe I should've just played Rivers???) but Austin Hooper and the Ravens Defense bailed me out. Don't know what to really do with Hooper now. I speculated on him, just wanting a piece of that Atlanta offense. But everyone probably realizes his 2-look, 2-catch day was probably a fluke. Will probably just hold and hope to ride Atlanta's coattails. Tight end is kind of a mess, may be able to get away with it.
Crowder is worrying but he might rebound. Cousins was a bit of a jittery mess in this game, constantly overthrowing people and being out of sync. But Cousins is so hot and cold sometimes, everything could just magically click for him next week. Problem is that Crowder was really mistake-prone in the game and Cousins didn't really look for him a lot.
They were really trying to feed Pryor the ball, though.

You could try using Hooper as trade bait. Tight ends are a fucking random luck of the draw
Jimmy Graham this week got like 0, Olsen got 1, Gronk got 3...

- Definitely some panic over Alfred Morris right now, DMC owners bailing out
- Could take a shot at Allen Hurns or whomever is the annointed ARob replacement
- Andre Ellington
You're fucked.

Drafted Jacksonville defense in one of my leagues and put them in two of my Fanduel lineups as well. Today was a good day
apart from losing power because of Hurricane Irma

Yeah. Kelce got 4 too

This is why investing a high draft pick in a Tight End is seldom a good idea.
It was worth springing on Gronk and Graham that one year they went cuckoo bananas. But that was the exception rather than the rule.
And, if you own Austin Hooper and can sell high on him to someone clueless, go for it.

Down 8, but have Tyrell Williams, Adam Thielan and Melvin Gordon. With my luck, they'll collectively land me 7.

I'm up 10, and I've got Vikes D vs Ted Ginn and Dalvin Cook.
Gonna be close, but I'm not feeling confident.

According to yahoo I've been playing fantasy sports for 17 years now. I think i've played fantasy football each of those years. Last year was the first year I really didn't care about my team or really following along with each game to see how I was doing.
This year was going to be different. I drafted a pretty good team (on paper), had high hopes for my season. I got lit up by Kareem Hunt this week and my great team failed to perform. I get that the first week is always a bit of an anomaly, but yeah I think I'm done with this dumb game after this year.
