Vengeance, you made it hard to cheer for Peyton Manning (and the Broncos) last night. I'm glad the defense scored the last touchdown because it was getting crazy hoping that Manning would score, but only if Thomas or Tamme caught the ball.

HD has both Gonzalez and White and I had Ryan. If you look through the awesomely polite smack talk, you'll see him asking me to throw to them in the RZ, where they were a lot. Which Ryan answered by scoring a Rushing TD (well, he did go to Gonzalez after that).

Anyhow, he's left me with 26 points with 2 players to win the match-up... and one of them is AJ Green against the Baltimore D .

My Kicker got me the most points so far this week!

Hmm? I think Rodgers would... 300 yards 300/25 = 12 pts), 2 TDs (x 6 pts = 12 pts), 1 2-pointer (2 pts) and a handful of rush yards minus an interception should be around 26.
Akers won't score that.

I noticed this morning that my own score was roughly 30 pts lower on the Yahoo! page from what it was last night, and the reason for that is that it doesn't calculate TDs. So I'm suddenly only 7-something points behind HD instead of 25-high (my 5 TDs (+30 pts) against his 2 for Vick, 2 for Foster, 1 for Wallace, 1 for Gore, 1 for Gonzalez, 1 for Ridley = + 48 pts).

Pic included (Matt Ryan ought to have 3 pass TDs and 1 rushing TD, Finley ought to have 6 points more for a receiving TD). If you go to the match-up screen and click Watch Live with Stattracker, you should get the correct scores.

That's not what my Match-up is showing. It has Ryan with 39 points for you and me up a total of 26 heading into tonights game which seems about right.

Edit: Also, my "Smacktalk" thing is usually just full of me yelling obscenities at my players for being worthless.

Your match up is now correct. However it was not earlier. I prefer to yell at my screen thereby irritating my wife or my coworkers whom ever is around me. I like to spread my pain.

I'd sympathize with you but that is my defense you are going against there. I have won this week against Bliss as it stands, BUT if you trounce my defense then that could make me lose. I am +3.1 points ahead of her.

Ooooh. I've seen it happen Tats.

But since its the Bal D I seriously doubt it'll happen.

I left 20 points sitting on my bench because I heard conflicting reports about the Lions RB situation. /sigh.

I left 20 points on my bench too, if it makes you feel any better. Adrian Peterson decided to announce to the world he is back.

Our points.

I hope Stafford gets back to throwing Megatron TD passes next week.

What players tend to play better at home and what players play better away?

I've got a decision to make between Brandon Pettigrew and Owen Daniels. Texans play Jaguars at home. Lions play 49ers at home. Originally Sidney Rice was in contention because his team play away at the Cowboys.

Welcome to fantasy Football....

49ers are the best defense in the league. I expect them to be even better at home then they where at GB. That being said Pettigrew is probably the second target on that team. Texans at home should be pretty good but they have a lot of weapons.


Vengeance is here to help.

[Vengeance]

What I'm trying to say tats is that there isn't a correct answer to your question. That is what everyone faces every week. Do I start a number 1 on a team with few weapons versus a tough D or do a I go with a guy on a team with a ton of weapons at home facing a weak D.

In another league (I belong to 3) I am starting Pettigrew (but I don't have a second TE) and Daniels is a free agent.

I think I will know what to do. I am hoping my players perform to the best of their ability

How do I trade Rashard Mendenhall or Mikel LeShoure out of my team and bring someone in?

In order to make a trade you have to get someone else to agree to the trade. Now if you want to drop a player and add a player off of wavers then you need to go to players and find the player that you want to add then click on the plus button and follow the directions.

[Brujah]

This was my first time playing fantasy football, I see where I should of went differently. I made some big mistakes, but wasn't aware of how it played out. I'll try to upgrade my team, but I screwed myself with my picks, I believe. I should of focussed on better RBs.

[Slow Ben]

Don't worry about it. My first draft I took Keyshawn Johnson first overal......his rookie year.

[Tapper]

34 points before I catch up with Lady B, my 8 to her 5. Seems I am doomed to play catch-up two weeks in a row...

[Stalker]

3 starting WRs get an astounding .18 points between them. Well played team.

[Obdigore]

I just lost by less than a point because the SF D gave up a meaningless TD at the end of the game.
