Jeff,

No one is gonna accuse you of whining or crying about injuries. There is only ONE person who does that repeatedly, and luckily he can't post here right now. ;)

This game has kicked me down this year as well, and I can totally feel for what you are going through. Strangest year I have ever been involved in, as you could show me a road map on how to get to the championship round, and I would overanalyze and screw it up.

Sometimes you have it (which you still do!), and sometimes you don't.

Hang in there.....your teams are doing well.

The good news is I just saw K.Boss is inactive. No hints all week and BAM.....after my other TE's have played of course.

That's my 7th player to go out prior to the end of the 1st quarter this year and my 3rd just today.

If this is a game of skill then I'm a kindergarten apprentice because I haven't learned any skills yet that could've helped me out of these messes. :( went away for a while and just caught the boss news! no worries, he'll be adequately replaced by the might correll buckhalter on my star studded classic team

maybe i have a short memory but also having a tough time coming up with receivers who have come as far out of nowhere as johnson and lloyd to deliver consistent results. when you think of guys like austin and garcon last year, there were plenty of guys who had crushes on them going into last year, even if they were picked much later on. an interesting year to say the least!

I love Steve Johnson. (Had I not been lucky enough to happen to FAAB him on a team, I would agree with the "I hate Steve Johnson" sentiment.)

How about this for Steve Johnson frustration? We could've largely negated his big game in our Primetime if we had started Fitzpatrick over Cutler on Thurs. :( . But Cutler had a strong game vs MIN last week and Fitz had failed to throw more than one TD or reach 20 points his past 3 games. On top of that, he was facing CIN, who last week held Peyton Manning to 9 friggin points! :eek: It cost us 30 points, which would've nicely negated most of Mr. Johnson. :(

We're still up 8 points but opponent has Floyd tonight. But man ... Start/sit outcomes have been a roller coaster ride this season!

How about this Johnson frustration? I DRAFTED HIM on 3 of my 4 teams this year and thanks to him barely seeing a ball early in the season and thanks to how bad Trent Edwards looked and their offensive line looked, I cut him.

I drafted him in our Classic league because I loved his skill set.

Nice roster move on my part.

Bills have Steelers this weekend, right?
This should be interesting.
Certainly worthy of much do-I-or-don't-I-start him.

Personally, I'm the second high scorer in my league behind the Johnson owner. Would love to see a halt put to this madness!(And I have the Steelers D!)

FYI...the passing offense at UK for two years consisted of Andre Woodson, Keenan Burton, Stevie Johnson, and Jacob Tamme. needless to say, they were very prolific and fun to watch... :D
