Anybody have results in their league shift this morning based upon that Mendenhall TD being scored a pass from Rothlisberger as opposed to a run? No change for me but I can imagine finding out you lost 4 days later based on that being a real kick in the nuts.

Someone in our league did and the ironic thing was he was playing a guy who started Rothlisberger.

Kenny Britt or Andrew Hawkins? Im waiting for Britt to bust out and play like he did before he got hurt last year, especially with Hasselbeck throwing to him again.

Hawkins on the other hand plays Cleveland this week, awful defensively both on the pass and run, but will Cincy get up early and rest their better players and run the ball?

So should I start Rodgers vs Texans or Rivers vs Broncos this week?

I also have Texans as my D/ST, so it would be hard to cheer for Rodgers to light the Texans up.

Gronkowski (bad matchup, bad hip) or Celek (good match-up but not as big a threat)?

Ah!!

I know Rivers hasn't played yet, but I certainly hope you started Rodgers.

Just checking my 3 fantasy leagues, and simply by looking at the scores I could figure out who owned Rodgers. What a night.

Ya I started Rivers. I'm ok with it though, becuse I already have a 20 point lead going into tomorrow night with Rivers left and he has McGahee.

Got murdered in a couple other leagues including the B league.

Meant to add this to my post last night, but what a week for me to drop Shonn Greene, see he got snagged and started for yesterday's games too. Guy does crap all year and then blows up the week I finally give up on him, perfect...the CP B league is quickly becoming the bane of my fantasy football existence this year. Weird too, I loved my draft. Julio Jones & DeSean Jackson really need to get their poop together.

Love having Rodgers as my QB. Hate that I was playing against a guy who started Nelson. Pretty much cancelled each other out.

Yep, while i didn't drop him, I used Crabtree ( with a crappy game) as my flex instead of Greene with a few of my players on bye...gotta love playing Greene the week he got me a whopping 3 pts then sitting him for a huge game like that....very frusturating.
Luckily for me the guy I was playing had a worse week than me so I still got the win.

I hate the money league I'm in. 3 of the 10 guys haven't touched their lineups since the start of the season, and since they never touch their lineup you can't make trades with them. Meanwhile my team is sucking week in week out leaving me in 2nd last place.

Waiting to see how bad Murray's injury is before I do anything, while that is a good idea I don't want to strap myself on RB depth til I know what I got and the one thing with Greene is no matter how bad he plays , you know he's still getting the ball next week as it seems Ryan is set on going with him no matter what.

Just brutal I'm 1-5 in one league because my WR's and RB's have been ####ing ####. There is so much potential there that I could be 5-1 or 4-2. Ugh it could be a very long season with the garbage I have playing right now.

I was down by 1 point last night, and the guy I was playing had Rivers. Fumbled on the last play of the game for -2 points and a win for me! Thank you Rivers!

Got offered Cam Newton+Gronk for Hernandez+Eli. Should I do it?

No. Eli is one of the best fantasy QBs right now. Don't do it. He'll get you way more points than whatever Newton is doing in Carolina.

I'd do it. While Eli might be the stabler of the two options Newton is far more dynamic. If Carolina straightens their game out an starts to run Newton's stats will improve again. Many leagues reward higher points for rushing touchdowns compared to passing touchdowns and if your league is one of those it's even better. Newton > Eli, Gronkowski > Hernandez. I'd do it for sure.
