This is going to be a bad fantasy week for me.

How can Flacco be this bad against the Eagles?

Thought I was in good shape with the other guy having Cutler but Flacco seems to want to ensure that Cutler isn't alone in his pathetic Fantasy week.

Because the Eagles have a top 10, if not top 5 defense?

They don't look that impressive on paper and even a supposed top 5 defense Flacco should be doing better than he is.

My fault for believing the hype in him and the offense after week 1.

FFS I cant win.. Last week I sit Ridley and Petersen ( for Reggie Bush and Gerhart) and they have a combined 40 pts on the bench. This week I drop Gerhart and play Ridley and Petersen. Reggie Bush has 35 pts on the bench. While Ridley and Petersen had a combined 17pts

LOL...

Asomugha - 4 All-Pro, 3 Pro-Bowl selections
Ryans - All-pro, 2 Pro-Bowl selections
Cole - All-pro, 2 Pro-Bowl selections
DRC - Pro-bowl
Babin - All-pro, 2 Pro-Bowl selections

If anything, they look better on paper than they've performed on the field, where they've underachieved the last year or so.

So if this was 2-3 years ago this defense would be great with all their pro-bowls now there are questions about it because those guys are older/not at pro bowl level now.

Either way not expecting 350+ yards and 4 TD's but did expect more than 120 yards even against the Super Duper Eagles defense.

Quite the week for my team, my bench out scored most teams. I still have Manning to play.

Manning, Spiller, Forte, Megatron, Jordy Nelson, Cruz, Cook, Graham, Packers

Bench: Reggie Bush, Ben Tate, Freeman, Reggie Wayne, Beanie Wells.

[Pagal4321]

If Jamaal Charles is injured, I am beyond screwed. I got less than 10 points from my 2 RB's, and I might still win.

30 point cushion but he's got Manning and Thomas and I have Decker. Let's hope Decker gets the TDs.

[rubecube]

I got a combined 26.68 points from Marshall, Run DMC, and Cobb. Not gonna win with that kind of production.

In the CP B league I beat rubecube by 2 points despite leaving Spiller on my bench and having him start Austin Collie.

Doug Martin and Raymond Rice

[Pierre "Monster" McGuire]

16 points behind the guy I'm playing and I still have Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, and K Matt Bryant yet to play.

I think I might win!

I'm in 3 fantasy leagues. RB's just killed me. Most likely going 0-3 this week.

McFadden/Chris Johnson
Charles/Bradshaw
Steven Johnson/Green-Ellis

That just sucks.

[Pacem]

I got killed this week in the league that I care about. My starting line up managed to out score my bench by 1 point. Total brain fart and didn't change up my lineup before Thursdays game. My QB's aren't great, but if I was paying attention i'd have never dressed Cutler vs GB in Green Bay.

I really don't like my team this year. I think it'll be a long fantasy season for me.

[Sainters7]

Reading the last few and I can't decide what's more frustrating, leaving guys on your bench who blow up, or finishing as the 2nd or 3rd highest scoring team in your league for that week, only to be playing the highest scoring. Both make me want to see if my laptop knows how to fly..

I need Julio Jones & Turner to both absolutely explode or its 0-2 in the B league this week. Funny how out of my 3 leagues, the 2 teams I love of mine are a combined 1-3 (including a predicted loss tonight in B league), and the one team I hate is about to go 2-0 due to very lucky matchups. I just don't get fantasy football sometimes..

[Hockey]

Should be able to hold onto my 6 point lead over Ravens in the B league. I got Manning and McGahee and he has Decker and Tamme. So pretty much any TD's his guys gets will also get me TD's from Manning.

CJ spiller, Reggie bush had monster weeks for me and I crushed my opposition. That's with Larry Fitzgerald and his 4 yards. Kevin kolb might be the biggest bum to pass him the ball since he's been in Arizona.
