I am kinda both. Went 2-1. Records for my three teams are 9-2, 7-4, 7-4.

The 9-2 team is doing great. I picked up Carson Palmer and started him over Matt Schaub this week due to Schaub's hospital visit and bursa sack injury in his knee. Palmer only got me about 3 more points than Schaub would have, but he is a nice backup QB for me down the stretch. The Bengals play at home in Weeks 15 & 16 against the Browns and Chargers.

My b itching is one of my 7-4 team scored 117.7 points and lost. :tantrum:

Oh well, all three of my teams should make the playoffs.

How did you all do this week?

6-5 and can't catch a break. Steven Jackson and Frank Gore combined for a whopping 10 points. Story of my season.

On paper, I have a team full of homerun hitters. They just can't put together good games together. I'm probably looking at the last (#6) seed in the playoffs. Hoping they catch fire in a couple weeks.

One team is 8-3, and the other 7-4. Kinda "meh".

Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Generally bragging, though starting Percy Harvin over Keiland Williams in my flex spot in one league cost me my 10th win in a row. I’m 9-2 in that league and 8-3 in In_Flames’ alpha league. Playoffs, baby.

I would have high hopes with SJax and Gore as your RBs, as long as the rest of your team is respectable (should be at 6-5). Those guys usually produce great every week.

Keep churning the bottom of the roster every week is what I do more than anyone else in my leagues. Now all of my teams are stacked. :up:

My two 7-4 teams are respectively, tied for first place (but second in scoring which is first priority) with FOUR other teams that are 7-4; and the other 7-4 team is in third place behind two 8-3 teams but is #1 in scoring in the league with a whopping 1227.9 points, over 30 points ahead of the next highest.

I did bad last week and need to shape up or could miss playoffs. Last week I made a trade for Brady and LT (I know, yuck) and so far Brady has given me 29 points so that's a good start.

Eh, robopick gave me Romo, and Ahmad Bradshaw has been wildly inconsistent.

Then Malcolm Floyd blew a hammy, and my TE was injured as well.

Bitching like nobodys business....I am 4-7 and this is my line-up

QB--Brees/Vick
RB--Rice
RB--Mendenhall
RB--Foster
WR--Holmes
WR--Megatron
WR--Welker
WR--V-Jax
TE--drafted Finley, have Mercedez Lewis
K--d'jour this week it is Tynes

why am I 4-7?? I have the most points allowed in my league by 163 points, so basically people are having career weeks against me every week....I look to change something, but how can you?? Last week it was S. Jackson, Colston, Benson, and Mannings turn....

Ben Obomanu replacing an injured Brandon Marshall helped me improve to 7-5 and beating one of the best team in the league, and almost securing a playoff spot. Now that i finally have a running game, i could do good in the playoffs... I need addai to get healthy.

Hard to believe you are only 4-7 with that squad. Talk about hard knocks...your team is the poster boy. :D

Hard to believe you have that bad of a record too. I'm thinking maybe your benches were weak? Just speculating.
