Through a comedy of errors I left 86 points on the bench this week and 81 last week. I'm in a standard league. Can anyone top that?

Jesus that's a ton..

I'm no where close to that, left 30 or so on during week 10 and lost by 8. Then in Week 9 left 18 on the bench and lost by 7.

Really hurt, would be 8-4 which would be good enough for 1st place in my league instead of 6-6 in 6th.

I left Phillip Rivers on my bench this week. He put up 40.

Down by 8 or so and have Kaep and Davis to play tonight. He has the niners D. Should have this in the bag besides an unforeseen catastrophe.

I went the greedy route. Pick up studs so other guys couldn't use them, then stream kickers and defenses to open up spots on the bench.

Haha. And on weeks i had guys on byes i picked up 1 or 2 players, and ended up starting the wrong guy. Like the week I had 81 on my bench. Had someone on bye and picked up Winslow and Cumberland to play. Started Winslow. He had 4. Cumberland had like 15 on my bench haha.

Last season my bench beat my starters 2 weeks in a row. One week was something like 105-104 and the very next week it was 101-85... it was crazy. I had a lot of depth and had difficult decisions every week. This year I made a lot of trades to turn my depth into studs to make my decisions much easier.

I'm glad I stuck it out with MJD even though I didn't start him this week. Him scoring 20 and Moreno getting hurt means I can trust my bench.

its not like you would have played any of those other guys over your starters so why complain about it?

Actually MJD vs Nelson at Flex was a concern of mine, and Olsen vs Fleener was another one because Fleener scored 11 points the week before as well.

I scored 84, my opponent scored 85, and my bench scored 86. It wasn't because I had 2-3 QBs on the bench either. Now it looks like it might cost me the season. I'm a hell of a GM but a terrible coach.
