Solid team man. Playoffs for sure. Why only 3 RB's though?


We had a run on RB's. Didn't intend on that happening.

pankReb,

That trade you just made for Mega makes your team really freaking strong. Why two defenses and kickers though? I would drop the Ravens and one of your kickers pick up a couple fliers.

That I am

But this is the right time of year to be a dirty northerner. 75 degrees and sunny right now. Although I really hate being here during football season, no one understands the importance of college football up here.

And let's not forget that epic battle between Harvard and Yale! A pillow fight to end them all!

planning on it. Week 4 is raping me on bye weeks. Bengals being one of them and Hauscha the other. Ravens play Carolina that week so I'll see how they look in weeks 1-3. I'll probably drop Novak after that week, as well.

btw....I know Bowe is probably going to miss week 1 with a quad injury....but why is everyone so down on him this season?

Bowe is actually suspended week 1. I think he has a good year though

As a Bowe owner last season, I can say from experience that a lot of people got burned by him a year ago. I think he will have a better season than last year, but for me it was one of those "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" situations.

Also, he's missing Week 1 on a suspension, not an injury. By all accounts he's perfectly healthy.

I gotcha. I got him really late and he's likely staying on my bench until week 4 when I have Ben Tate, Floyd, and Tavon Austin all on bye.

Ah I missed that injury report. Well, point remains that he isn't playing Week 1 due to suspension. I'm sure his quad will be fine by Week 2 though, so yeah, just keep him on the bench for a few weeks and keep your fingers crossed. The good thing is you don't need him right way.

Unlike me last season: "Between Dwayne Bowe and Hakeem Nicks, one of these guys is going to be a stud at WR2."

Yeah that draft day decision single-handedly kept me out of the playoffs last season.

I feel like i should win my league.
10 team PPR

QB: Rivers
RB: Spiller, FJax, Jennings, Woodhead
WR: AJ, Demaryius, Dez, Steve Smith
TE: Gronk, Gates
Def: Chiefs
K: Vinatieri
Sill have 2 spots open to pick up FA.
I traded Bush/Desean/Mike Evans for Demaryius
My RB are week, but I'm satisfied if i can get 10-12 each from two of them each week, which i think shouldn't be too hard.

Very solid PPR team. I like Jennings in PPR a lot, and Spiller should be a serviceable RB2 since your WRs and Flex are so good
