Rog, ABSOLUTELY you can recover from one bad week. You can still get into the playoffs and that is all that matters.. Anyone could win the overall, at that point. I don't think I need to tell you to stay positive, my friend.... :D
+1, had a team put up 69 last week then 173 this week and we're right back where we were before.

I'm fully prepared for Adrian Peterson to tear his ACL while being tackled near the Giants sideline and somehow decapitating Victor Cruz in the process.

I feel your pain Roger. I've been hanging in by a thread in the Ultimate. Wayne going down effectively ends my season. I went safe with Roddy White / Reggie Wayne in rounds 3 and 4, I was screwed from the get go. Time for a break. Baseball prep will start mid-January this year!!

I just went back to check the draft of my Home league -

The most amazing part of this is that I am 4-3 - and hanging around -

1 - CJ Spill
2 - Julio Jones
3 - Shane Vereen
4 - D Thomas (Yay!)
5 - Colston
6 - Miles Austin

Only one out of my top six are producing..... Unbelievable -

BTW - in case you are wondering - Woodhead, Moreno, Rivers (And now this week Harry Douglas and Boykin) - are saving my butt -

What a year....

Lol. I have both Kendall and Sanu on my bench in Cutline leagues as well. At least Kendall is loved by Locker. May very well deserve a weekly spot in your lineups as a WR3/Flex as it is. Sanu, on the other hand, is the equivalent, right now, of a WR20.

I start Kendall Wright with confidence each week -- however, I said Kendall Hunter. Much different :D

Honestly this year is making me rethink playing this game I love. I know every team is getting hit but it's just been terrible. As someone else in this thread said about QB's going out early in games and leaving you with a goose egg (or worse -0.6 from Cutler this week) :evil:
In the Diamond league I drafted RGiii and Cutler. Well come RGiii's bye week I pick up Hoyer because I like his matchup better and boom first series he leaves me with a 2.6 from the QB spot. Somehow I scrape together a week of 144 points still. Whew disaster averted! This week I start Cutler over RGiii because he's been producing and I get a kick to the gnads with Cutler going down after throwing a pick that should be given to Alshon Jeffery! RGiii? Yeah he scored 33.something. So that and the week 5 Hoyer week when Cutler had 30 points puts me 63 points behind where I should be in the standings!
Nothing I can do about it and I'm not second guessing because in my mind I know I made solid calls for solid reasons on both plays. It just sucks!

My 2nd and 3rd round picks (D. Wilson and S. Jax) haven't played or produced at RB so I've been running with J. Rodgers, Tate & Pierce at RB. It is ugly and somehow I still have a fighting/slim chance to get hot and make the playoffs. Mostly because everyones rosters are slammed with big injuries too.

Hasn't been a very fun season this year and I don't see it improving with as many injuries as we've seen I'm sure there's a lot more waiting around the corner...

Ah LOL. Sometimes it's hard to believe there are two guys named Kendall in the NFL. I missed that one. :oops: I saw the name Kendall and was only thinking about the important one ha ha.
