Great day for me.

Wentz
Barkley
Yeldon
Cooks
Hopkins
Evans
Jeffrey
Butker
Denver defense

My worst player was 50 yards and a TD. Started Yeldon over Kerryon which was a slight error but Yeldon scored at least for me. I wish pencil geek would get rid of blount, then Kerryon would be a beast going forward.

Not really looking to make any moves. Like how my team is shaping up.
Have a shot to win my main league  
UConn4523 : 10/22/2018 8:55 am : link
despite getting 1 point from Michel and Breida - nothing worse than 1st quarter injuries.
I need 9 combined  
pjcas18 : 10/22/2018 9:10 am : link
points from Beckham and Rosas to go 3 - 0 and I'll tell you this is not a proud 3 - 0.

Some of my lowest scores of the year across the board, but that's H2H, take the good with the bad.

Biggest mistake and it's hard to second guess was starting Golladay over Kerryon Johnson.

And Jordan Reed is almost waivable at this point. I figured the way Alex Smith used Kelce if he was healthy Reed would be a top TE, but he doesn't get consistent quality targets. And he's not the player Kelce is, so I wasn't comparing them, but I thought he'd be more utilized.

This will be my best fantasy weekend...

will win all 4 of my leagues. Plus, in fan duel I finished 1st, 2nd and 4th in all three 100 player 50/50 contests.

How many teams are in your league 4?
Thank you to those who recommended I stick with Brady over Dalton

Too bad it didn't matter a lick. Lousy scoring week for me. Hurts too because it was against a divisional opponent. I've now played this guy two times, and in both cases, my team was lame. Odd because my team has been the high scorer of the week already two times. Just not when I am playing this guy. Ugh!
not really happy  
allstarjim : 10/22/2018 10:21 am : link
Going to go 1-3 in my money leagues this week, 2-3 overall. I had a season-high record 169.80 points scored against me. Opponent had Kareem Hunt, James White, and Marlon Mack against me at RB. I had Ezekiel Elliott, Joe Mixon, and Nick Chubb.

I think most weeks my RBs are going to be much better than his. But this week, just his RBs gave him 90 points, and mine got me 25.8.

This is the 4th week in a row I've had 130 plus points scored against me, where the league average is around 112. I still scored a respectable 121.70, but lose again. Somehow, it only drops me to 4-3.

In my 10-Team Standard, I had the 2nd highest points scored against me on the week, and I'm losing 129.94 to 87.90 with just Julio Jones left to play.

Moreover, in that league, it looks like I've lost Albert Wilson and Sony Michel to significant injury (we'll see). I at least had Michel on my bench. But losing Wilson early in the 2nd quarter in a game he was getting touches early just sucks. Again I went up against James White in that league...and Mahomes.

In my 10-team keeper I'm down almost 29 points going into Monday Night Football. Once again, Elliott, Mixon, Golladay, and to a lesser extent, Robert Woods, all let me down. But I do have Saquon Barkley left to play, and my opponent has no players left. I just need Saquon to give me a season high game of 29.1 fantasy points. But hell, last week, he had 28.9, so I guess it's possible.

In my 12-team, 2-keeper .5 pt PPR league, I had a good week. I'm going to get the win, desperately needed one, will move to 3-4, but moreover, I greatly bolstered my team by just being patient with Nick Chubb and Marlon Mack. I didn't play Mack this week, and it didn't hurt me, but what he did against the Bills was pretty amazing. That team is now looking very strong.

So, let's go Saquon tonight! At least end the weekend on a high note and try to get one back in week 8.

You have to feel good about what Marlon Mack did yesterday.
Thought I would win, then Carolina came back...  
TheEvilLurker : 10/22/2018 10:26 am : link
What did me in was Fg kicker (picked the Jets, had GB, but they have a bye), Chicago defense (didn't have a spot to spare), and WR Robinson for the Bears (saw he was healthy and started him...he barely played).

I really thought I won it, then I saw Carolina came back. Opponent had Funchess and Newton...

Dalton fucked me yesterday. I lost because he couldn't score more than 9 points against the Chiefs D. This is with Rivers on my bench.
Ugh, that is rough, Robbie  
MadPlaid : 10/22/2018 10:42 am : link
If I didn't already have Brady, I would have been riding the Dalton train myself. Every QB who's played the Chiefs, has scored a minimum of 20 points. What the heck, Andy?!
Gotta love Head to Head leagues  
Mike in NY : 10/22/2018 10:42 am : link
Won easily this week with similar point totals to what I had been averaging (about 110-120). Lost last week to a team that had an absurd week (one of the higher point totals of all teams this year) and that team got like 60 points this week after putting 150 against me.
I played a team  
pjcas18 : 10/22/2018 11:05 am : link
who had Breida, Goodwin - for a combined 4 points and I still need 9 points combined from Rosas and Beckham to win.

I should win, but man this was a rough week.

6 points from Reed, 5 points from Golladay, and still winning (if I do), I'll take it.
I need 29 points from Barkley/Shep  
Eli Wilson : 10/22/2018 11:13 am : link
to win one game. It's a PPR league, I think against Atlanta I have a pretty good shot.

In another league I need OBJ to have less than 40 points. That should also be a win.

In my 3rd league I had both Sony Michel and LeSean McCoy go down with injuries before their day really started. I haven't heard anything on Michel's injury, which could be really bad or really good.
I love Todd Gurley. That is all.

Despite low output from ekeler, golladay and Keenan Allen. Thankfully benched breida this week though.

Michel scheduled for MRI today, Schefter says "not too serious" no idea how he knows.
I'd say at best  
Keith : 10/22/2018 11:35 am : link
Michel is a sprained MCL and will miss about a month. They can usually tell if he tore ligaments just by manipulating the knee. I'm guessing they did that and said he most likely didn't tear ligaments which means its a sprain. Just guessing though.

By the way,  
Keith : 10/22/2018 12:19 pm : link
even with that game, he's still the 7th ranked TE...if you're paying attention, lol.

arcarsenal : 10/22/2018 12:23 pm : link
4 TD's in the last 5 games.

And he's the 6th ranked TE now.

Keep on hatin!
7th.  
Keith : 10/22/2018 12:24 pm : link
You need to sort by average per week due to byes.

I'm not hatin though. I think he's a fine player, it was more QB/system for me.

Nice battle we have going in the BBI league. Good luck.

I guess if I lose, its somewhat correlated with a NYG win. So somewhat of an emotional hedge in play (even if Im not sure that NYG winning any games is a good thing for the long term at this point).

I stupidly thought I had swapped in Uzomah for Gronk and never checked on Sunday before I got wrapped up in family stuff. If I lose I damn well deserve it. But do me a favor and beat me by more than 9 if you win, so that I dont need to kick myself in the ass too many times.

So in the BBI league  
pjcas18 : 10/22/2018 1:44 pm : link
DEF isn't DEF/ST so you don't get points for a KO return (for example)?

is that intentional?

Before anyone gets defensive or pissed off, I am in no way blaming anyone. I already admitted I have not thoroughly read through each setting and I'm fine to live with it however it is. Just curious, normally when I have a DEF I get points for their punt and kick return TD's.

Correct, in this league (and in most) you do not get points for return yards. In leagues that score that way, sometimes the team with the worst defense is the one to own because they are receiving more kickoffs (not punts). It is counter intuitive.

Not yards, return TD's.

I see... you are correct. For some reason return TDs do not count for anything. Very unusual.

Definitely. They are shopping him and if a deal gets done to the right team he could be a lottery ticket type add.

Depends if you have someone droppable with less upside.

but I don't have high hopes for him at all. He's been a massive disappointment.

MRI on Patriots RB Sony Michel revealed no structural damage, per source. Michel will be considered week to week, per source. Best-case scenario for Michel and Patriots.
2:57 PM - 22 Oct 2018
The Michel news is huge  
UConn4523 : 10/22/2018 3:24 pm : link
was bracing for a season ender. Ive got depth to get by but Id like to have him for the final 4/5 games of the season.
Cooper is a must add  
dep026 : 10/22/2018 4:08 pm : link
And almost a must play. Youre not giving up a first rounder and not force him the ball.
Hes a must add  
UConn4523 : 10/22/2018 4:27 pm : link
but I dont think hes going to save fantasy seasons or anything, not on that team. He will maybe go back to earning his ADP but even then Im skeptical. This isnt Moss to the Pats.
He's going to a putrid  
Keith : 10/22/2018 4:29 pm : link
pass offense. Cooper is a WR3, IMO. Not sure I'd call him a must add, but I'd still add him if I had space.
