Anyone interested in trading for Knowshon Moreno? I know he's out for 4-8 weeks but he has a lot of potential after that time, I just can't wait it out since I have other injured or suspended players. I'll take any RB, I assume any RB ya'll have are better than what's on the waiver wire.

I would because I like Moreno but I can't justify having an injured player just sitting there for a month or two.

Cecil Short is going to be back next week, so if you were to trade me say C.J. Spiller you'd only have one injured player on your bench, yeah it's a month but he'll be great when he comes back.

I won again!!
This was a huge win; I fully expected to lose this week. After a lackluster Thursday I was projected to be in a pretty good hole. Even when I saw one of his guys was injured early and knew he would be getting zero there I still thought he would win because of my kicker situation. I picked up Janikowski because he was projected to get fourteen, he ended up getting two. Not a single field goal even attempted the entire game. So even with that injury, usually an advantage, I was only staying even here as we each had a no-show I wasn't gaining any ground yet to stay on pace overall, much less make up the defecit I already had. But then the perfect combination happened. His remaining players were completely shut down, and my remaining players had superstar performances.
Major shout out to my guys Rodgers and Nelson who were stifled for most of their game, making me sure I was doomed, but shook it off in time to not only get things going, but put up absolutely monster numbers! Also to the Cardinals D/ST who had four turnovers and a kick returned for a touchdown, one of the best performances in that area I've ever had.

In our own "super bowl rematch" I manage to scrape out a win over Laura. I don't know how... but I did. Thank you Panthers d/st.
I am confused
Ugh. Big loss this week... but I'd say it was worth it with that great Seattle/Denver game.

This is incredible! I was worried about this week because it was projected to be very close, and then two of the players I was really counting on were announced as out. I had replacements ready because I knew they had been questionable, so I switched them in but wasn't as confident in their matchups as I had been about the others. It worked out though!
I won again!

Anyone looking for a good TE? I'm willing to trade Martellus Bennett for a good offer.

I won again!
This was a huge week: The clash of the last remaining unbeatens. I was fortunate to score this matchup on the Denver bye week, but my players put up such great numbers I would like to think I still could have won anyway.

It was also Seattles bye week so pretty much my entire first string team was gone. I think we could have given you a run for your money otherwise.
Oh yes, it definitely would have been a really close fight, but I still think I might have been able to pull ahead in the end.
Edit:
In fact, my score is higher than any of your scores have been so far, meaning I outdid the best you've done, so I definitely think I would have had a good chance of maintaining the victory.

I forgot to take out my d and q.b. who had bye, but sill won? Last minute free agent pickups ftw!
I am confused
Not only that, you took over the Most Points trophy! You had an outstanding week!
Edit:
Another scoring question: Do fumbles always count against the player, or only if it's actually turned over? Is it still negative if their team recovers it?

Based on Jay Cutler fumbling twice against the Packers, no. Since he recovered both, and didn't get negative points.bookworm wrote: Another scoring question: Do fumbles always count against the player, or only if it's actually turned over? Is it still negative if their team recovers it?

I won again! I cannot believe this!
I was worried about this one because it was projected to be very close, so there were no points to spare, and then I had an issue with the Thursday game. Rodgers played so well that he didn't take a single snap in the entire fourth quarter because they put in the backup. That meant my QB points were done, which upset me because it doesn't make sense if you think about it. I picked someone who put up such an oustandingly dominant performance that he quit early, which is actually a punishment because he stopped getting points. In other words, I made too good of a choice for QB this week.
Fortunately that was covered by a Defense decision that paid off. I picked up the Steelers to play only this one week because I had a good feeling about the matchup. They weren't projected to be very noteworthy, but I was confident they would outperform the projection, and they did. They doubled it in fact. So I was very proud of making that call.
I'm pretty bummed about my new TE though. They acknowledged that it was an unfavorable matchup this week, but insisted that even so he was still "a must start", so of course I started him, and he got a whopping one point. I'm sure it was just a fluke and he'll bounce back, but it ruined the excitement over my long anticipated first trade of the season.
Also I'm frustrated with the Ravens. I've tried to play their RB multiple times now and it's never worked out. When I go with Forsett they give the ball to Taliaferro all game so this week I went with Taliaferro and Forsett got everything. >_>
