Week 6 Fantasy Pain

This is going to be an ugly, ugly week in Fantasy Football. When you look at the teams on bye, and combine that with the brutal defensive matchups, and then finally throw in the injured players you end up totally bent over.

When you see Jason Avant, TY Hilton and Chris Givens in your starting lineup, you know you're hurting. There will be plenty of sub-100 point teams out there this week.

Fortunately I'll be at the Falcons game on Sunday watching my birds crush "Da Raidehs". The internet reception is so bad in the Georgia Dome I won't have to suffer through the slow blood-letting of death by a thousand cuts. I'll just take my punch in the stomach all at once when I exit the stadium and check my score.

Not sure how many $9 beers I'm gonna have to drink prior to that to soften the blow...I'm putting the Over-Under at 7...

I think week 7 will be worse with 6 teams on a bye the only week with that many teams off.

I have to start 2 running backs from this threesome - John Kuhn, Felix Jones, and Knowshon Moreno - Brutal

OTOH, this just MIGHT (emphasis on might), be the time where those owners who exercised a little patience by hanging onto the likes of Ballard and A.Green are justly rewarded for their patience. We shall see.

That is brutal...that one might win for the prize of "Toughest pill to swallow"

Hope for a TD from Kuhn and a couple of catches from Felix and run. :o

I agree...benching Moreno is probably the best option.

Losing Cedric Benson to injury (and not bidding enough on Green or Starks) along with Darren Sproles on bye and losing Daniel Thomas to injury. Will be satisfied with 15 points combined from Kuhn and Jones, but not counting on it.
