Anybody else starting the season 0-2? Didn't set my lineup last week, got crushed thanks to starting Cam Newton (IA last week) while Matt Ryan rode my bench (30+ points thanks to career day).

This week manage to set my lineup, feeling good heading into the day, and right now I'm currently losing by 55 points. Seahawks D blessed me with a solid 0, thanks to losing to the Chargers. AJ Green blessed me with another 0, thanks to his turf toe injury. Started Matt Ryan, who gave me 10 points, over Cam Newton, who had 20 on the bench. Started Roddy White and Brandon Cooks, who combined to score 9 points. Waiting on LeSean McCoy and Dwayne Allen to play tomorrow before I confirm the loss.

I feel like rage quitting right now, especially since my matchup this week is against my coworker who is undoubtedly going to annoy the shit out of me for the 50 hours I have to sit next to him next week. I picked up Josh Gordon thinking it would be a steal once his suspension is reduced, thought 8 games was harsh and it turns out it was only reduced to 10. What's the point of having him for <6 games, especially with the Browns qb situation? Idk that it's worth wasting a roster spot for the next 8 weeks for.

It sounds like you have a solid team actually, just a bad week. Hang in there bud. There are a lot of good players to pick up this week as well to help your team.

So Tampa gave up 56 points but ended with 15 fantasy points. Cute trick if you can do it

Yea...and I played against Julio Jones in one of my leagues Peyton Morris and Asiata have to help me catch up. I'm not hopeful though.

I am in a quandary here at QB. I have Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, and now Cousins as QBs. Wilson is on bye. Should I gamble with Cousins? NFL.com is projecting Rodgers to have a big day against da Bears, but I don't see it. The Pack offense sucks right now.

I'm starting Foles over Stafford after benching Foles last week in favor of Stafford. You're welcome Redskins. Every player I started last week had their lowest totals of the season and I played the person with the highest of EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY except defense.

RAGE QUITSSSSSSSS.

Yeah, my gut says go with Kirk, just worried about some crazy jinx. If Djax is in, Kirk will have all the weapons he needs.

someone tell me if that's a good trade for me ^ up there.

[los panda]

which side of these 2 trades would you rather be on?

1.
jimmy graham, ryan mathews, and bernard pierce
or
gronk, sea d/st, and brandin cooks

2.
matt ryan
or
martellus bennett

current roster:
qb: newton, dalton (2)
rb: forte, f. jackson, bradshaw, t. west (4)
wr: bryant, cobb, a. hawkins, cooks (4)
te: gronk, bennett, allen (3)
d/st: chargers, seahawks (2)
k: gostkowski (1)

roster if i accept both trades:
qb: newton, ryan, dalton (3)
rb: forte, f. jackson, bradshaw, mathews (4)
wr: bryant, cobb, a. hawkins, *sanu drop bernard pierce (4)
te: graham, allen (2)
d/st: chargers, *bears drop t. west (2)
k: gostkowski (1)

then probably try to trade dalton or newton for a decent wr. help!

[los panda]

i accepted both of those trades, dropped t. west for bears d/st; plan to drop pierce for sanu.

i offered a guy cam newton for desean jackson, fair?

that'd leave me w ryan and dalton at qb...

Need opinions! 20 Team PPR

I have Jordan Reed, need someone to fill in. Waivers are thin, best options are Levine Toilolo (ATL) or Cumberland (NYJ).

Two trades I'm considering:
Jeremy Kurley for Owen Daniels
Jeremy Kurley for Niles Paul

My other receivers are Jeremy Maclin, Vincent Jackson, Deandre Hopkins, Allen Robinson

Owen Daniels has more year-long stand alone value with Pitta done for the year, Niles Paul is a great handcuff. Thoughts?

either of those trades is good, those waiver options are trash. i'd accept the daniels trade.

can i get some advice on mine?
