Roster consists of Jefferson, Achane, Deebo and Lawrence, and my Cowboys D and Prescott both enter their BYE week...not looking good for me here.

Lol...same boat. I have JJ and Achane (and Justin Fields), then have Mixon and Breece Hall on byes.


My starting RBs this week....Roschon Johnson and Jaleel Mclaughlin


I just need to find a way to get 1 win, maybe 2, during Achane/JJ injuries.

Also lost Dobbins week one. I typically have bad luck with injuries, but this may be the worst I've seen it.

Can you post your roster, just so I know who to avoid on the waiver wire and such?

Got some good new on Jahmyr Gibbs and sounds like CMC is just a pain tolerance thing.

Its a tough one because its a MNF for CMC.

Harrison Butker of all players saved me to send me to 5-1.

Odd schedule this year with no teams on bye in week 8 and 6 teams on bye in week 13 after Thanksgiving. Not sure why the league can't just get all teams on byes between weeks 5 and 11 as that's 4 teams every week and 6 teams in two of those.

Between injuries and byes there will be some pretty thin lineups this week.

Need help... Currently 7-0 in my 14 man league and do not want to lose, coming up against a tough opponent:

QB - J. Allen (BUF QB)
RB - Mostert (MIA RB)
RB/WR - Pollard (DAL WR)
WR - K. Allen (LAC WR)
TE - Hockenson (MIN TE)
FLEX - McLaurin (WSH WR)
D/ST - 49ers
K - Moody (SF K)

Only allocated 3 bench spots, which are taken by Stroud (HOU QB), Collins (HOU WR), and London (ATL WR)

I think the lineup I've set already looks good, but part of me thinks Pollard with his meh rushing game as of late is concerning, especially against a tough opponent. Imo London needs to somehow get in there, I doubt he gets less than 8 receptions (I am projecting 10 targets, he's Ridder's favorite target) and should be able to manage at minimum 65-75 yards. That's about 14.5 points right there, potentially more. Or I am I overlooking things? Obviously J. Allen stays in, and Stroud/Collins should likely stay on the bench since they're coming off of a bye, not sure how they're going to play.

I'd go for a different kicker...

I'm 4-3...that Brock Purdy pick caused me to lose by .7 points. Third time this year the last play on Monday Night made me lose a matchup by less than 1.5 points. I see the jerk I'm playing this week just stole 2 guys from the last place team to beef up his lineup. I really need to quit this stupid game.

I have a strategy for that... I am going to use the 49ers' bye week next week to drop Moody and utilize his "bench" spot to not start a kicker for week 9 and pick up a defense... Or maybe take a kicker and leave the defense on BYE. Why? Because I don't want anyone taking Stroud, London, or Collins. All great WW options, and I might lose what, 6-8 points with a kicker? If I lose by 6-8 points that's on me but I don't want anyone taking the players I have on the bench.

Traded Hockenson and Rice for D Johnson and Dotson just an hour before kickoff. Glad it turned out to be DJs first TD in forever

I'm very annoyed. My opponent this week who is the league commissioner got Chris Olave for Devonta Smith from a team who's 3-6. He also got Austin Eckeler for Josh Jacobs and Darren Waller from s team that's 2-7...and this guy immediately dropped Waller. He beat me by 3 points thanks to those moves. I can't see how teams who need to win trade better guys who are better and not on bye for those returns.

Well I basically need to win out in the league I run. I've been DESTROYED by injuries this season.
- Lost JK Dobbins week one or two (whatever it was)
- Lost Jefferson
- Lost Achane
- Lost Justin Fields

I'm 4-6, and probably need to win my last 4 matchups. I love my lineup though...(0.5ppr)


Fields (QB)

Joe Mixon (RB)
Breece Hall (RB)

Justin Jefferson (WR)
AJ Brown (WR)

Logan Thomas (TE)
Achane (FLEX)
Streaming D/S and kicker

Marquise Brown, Hunter Henry, Tutu Atwell, Josh Downs, Keaton Mitchell, Noah Brown on bench.

I need a miracle!! But I think this lineup could do it.
