I think I would prefer to lose that way

That happened to me three years ago. I was so pissed when I missed the playoffs. Every week someone would have their best week against me.


It's rough. If my team was average, then I didn't deserve the playoffs. I still think I could win this thing...missing the playoffs would burn. There aren't many bad teams in our league, so you'd have to figure somebody would get fricked by the luck of the draw.

ETA: Duck, I've seen that Ravens offensive line in action. I would only take their running back if his name was Adrian Peterson.

These Division 2 games coming up are going to be fun with two 5-5 teams and two 4-6 teams. Ought to be an exciting next three weeks.

We both have 2 top 10 picks riding the bench.... change of scenery could help but I just saw Spiller is still injured as well

Is what it is. Just glad I drafted Moreno. Having some functional RBs have been nice. I'm holding on to hope with Spiller, but I'm done expecting much out of him week to week. You obviously know how that feels.

Yeah..... Only reason I keep playing Rice is you hope he turns it around. It messed me over last week. If I could package him and Brown/Decker for someone I would though

I've only played Spiller recently because of bye weeks. At full strength, he's riding my bench until I see some dramatic improvement. It's tough leaving a top 10 pick on the bench, but he's not playing like one.

I had no options until I got Ellington and then sat Bernard because I thought Rice had a better match up. My fault in over thinking

I'm done trying to play matchups. More often than not there's a reason the guy you are thinking of plugging in is on the bench. Have a base lineup and play it until a bench player is consistently out scoring a starter.

That's usually what I do....
Sadly this year I have Roddy/Rice who have the name and past production on their side which puts doubts in your head. :lol :

It's fricked up when a guy with a QB who isn't playing, and who has Bryce Brown starting, is just 2 spots out of playoff contention.

To week 11, and only 4 teams have a losing record. That there's some parity.

That's been the tough part this year, there aren't many bad teams. Tulane and Ducky have solid squads, but are 4-6. It's left a lot of room for luck to make the difference. Evolve is 6-4, but is 8th in scoring. Tulane is 4-6, but sitting at 5th in scoring.

I've scored more points than you and also have a losing record

I've mismanaged my team this year. Easily could have another 2-3 wins had I made better decisions (like starting Andre Brown over TRich this past weekend).
