General Chat / Fantasy Football 2013

Looky here... I'm back... a belated good luck to everyone. oh and thanks again kumba for keeping me posted about this.
-JDP

After two weeks we find three teams undefeated. gir, Comet and Kumba have all won their first couple of games. Might not be much of a surprise to see defending champ Kumba and 9 consecutive game winner Comet out front, but after a 5-8 season gir has the most points to start this year and the wins to go with it. On the other end of the spectrum last year’s runner-up and 4th place finisher are bringing up the rear with 0-2 records after low scoring loses in week 1 and 2. This week may not have any 2-0 vs 2-0 matches, but there will be a 0-2 vs 0-2 match when Panther and In:Cities meet. Best of luck avoiding the dreaded 0-3 start guys. Also this week will end the opening round of division games of most of us. gir is already 2-0 in his division which is a big edge. Division matches will resume again week 11 and cap off the season. This way there are no NFL bye weeks to worry about.

Good luck everyone!

This is the last chance ESPN has for an accurate "prediction" for my team. So far they've overestimated me by 50+ points.

Standings off my spreadsheet:

Well I'm fucked fantasy wise but at least the Jets made up for it

Note to self: Start Peyton Gillis(RB)


Yo I may be into trading Kolb, Thomas, AND LT for a decent running back.

Interesting... see my trade offer

Ok so unless the Bears go nuts on kickoff/punt returns I think I can move to 3-0. Plus I got Jennings to try and pad my lead. Also gir looks like he'll stay perfect, but Comet was not so lucky...

wow, fantasy move of the week goes to me for switching out braylon edwards to put in austin collie within the hour before the first lineup of games started. i didnt expect him to get me 29, ahaha

^Yea, I watched that game at my uncles house praying that I wasnt playing who ever had him. And thank God I'm not. He had like 12rec for 175 somethin yards and 2 scores. Pretty good for a rook.

Not a rook, but still pretty good

My teams a mess right now injury wise and everything, I'm gonna need to work on it this week
Carson Palmers sucking big time too, I kinda wish I had Cutler back

^oh yea, I just looked that up. I forgot its been two years since he was Max Hall's favorite target. He's had his fair share of good arms throwing to him.

I have no idea how I managed to win without starting Boldin. Good game, chapelz.

even though you won, i bet your still pretty mad you didn't start him... he played amazing

I feel the same way about sitting Marshall. Only did it because I had a big lead and was starting him in another league, so I put MSW in. Oh well, a wins a win

Will post a league news update soon.

even though you won, i bet your still pretty mad you didn't start him... he played amazing
-JDP

I wouldn't call Boldin's play "amazing".. I'd call it "undefended" as it didn't even look like the Browns were tyring to cover him...

Overview:

Where are you getting those standings from? Look good tho. I like my 2 game lead on my Division

btw anymore offers for Jackson? I don't think I'll drop him, but I don't like waiting around. Already need to do that with Ben.

Well has Flacco shown any improvement? I don't exactly have a stellar cast, so trade talk is a bit weak still.


Those standings are in my Excel spreadsheet that I use every year for FF. The Rank, Games Behind, and Points Behind are all based on the league as a whole, for determining playoff brackets.

Also guys I encourage you all to make your own team field. With the permission of James I made mine from AT&T Stadium:

JDP waivered one of my WRs! Grrrrr.......... Oh, and that Seahawks Defense should be a nice rollercoaster of points!

Week 3 was intense with all match-ups being decided by 10 points or less... well other than Comets' where Maverick dropped him 95-45. Of all people Comet is now in position to win the award for sucking his way to the lowest scoring output of the season. A big change of pace from starting out 2-0 with 11 wins in his past 12 matches! Anyways right now the Kumba's defending champion Iguanaz and gir's Skyhawks are the two remaining undefeated teams at 3-0. JDP, Maverick and Comet are all 2-1. tdub is also 2-1 with both wins coming in division game. Only him and the 3-0s are perfect in division play. At the back of the pack K0NG and Panther are still looking for their first wins of the season. In week 4 we have a couple of big 3-0 vs 2-1 matches as gir takes on Comet and Kumba faces JDP. Also please be sure to update your rosters regularly as we are now into the start of the NFL bye week.

Good luck everyone!

My problem is I have no consistent 10 point player, add that to the injuries I'm facing and it doesn't look good
I'm gonna give em one more chance before I start trying to make big moves
