The Head Ache thread

JDP · Post #1 » by **JDP** » Mon Oct 4, 2010 1:12 am

I thought it would be fun to start up this thread to allow owners to vent about some of the problems you've been facing this season. I'll start I'm a Charles owner so that's a head ache in its self but I'm fortunate enough to have a good running back situation that I can afford to have him on my bench most weeks (I got Turner, Foster, Best, Charles) as my RBs.

But Marques Colston you are killing me I dunno what to do with this guy he hasnt gotten me 10 fantasy points in a game this season. I know this might be useless but I thought it would be nice to have a place to vent.

My quarterbacks.

First Favre and Cassel. I cut Cassel, adding Derek Anderson before the season starts hoping that Anderson may find his inner awesome Cleveland and light up the stat sheets like Warner did. He disappoints until he's replaced by an undrafted rookie today. The Washington defense can suck it as well for getting Vick hurt today.

Colston in one league. I don't know if I can start him the rest of the year. And its not like I have other good options. I don't know if he's any better an option than any of the other receivers in that offense right now and none of them are good options.

The Bear's O line. WTF. I go into last night's game up 41 with Cutler left and my opponent having Nicks and Marshall left. Cutler projected for 19 and the WRs for 24 combined. Should be good right?
Now up 23 with Marshall going against one of the worst pass D's in the league. **** **** ****.

Also, I have a Sims-Walker problem too...until waivers on Wednesday.

Have Charles as well, was getting annoyed/worried when I did not see Fostser getting carries (also my other rb), luckily he did get to play and he pretty much saved my arse. My biggest disappointed on my team thus far is Ray Rice, my #1 over all pick, guy hasn't gone over 100yds or scored 1 TD yet biggest BUST of this years draft. Now to add insult to injury Culter one of my 2 avg. QB is starting to look like the idiot form 09, throwing int's left and right and getting sacked a whole bunch of time. I think I'm only owner in the league who'll ever have a qb with NEGATIVE points and still win lol, thanks to my big guns Foster/Gates this week.

I'm scared dude. Its going to be close. Its a lot of points but Marshall can definitely do it. I'm praying for some serious Pats double coverage since those corners have looked pretty awful so far. The game will probably be high scoring so we're going to have to hope he doesn't catch those endzone jump balls Henne likes tossing up.

Lets goooooo Ricky and Ronnie.

This is kinda funny because I have Marshall on my team & we're currently down 18 points to my opponent. All his players have already played while I have Gostkowski going as well as Marshall. I think they'll combine for more than 18 points

The only headache I've had so far was Jennings 8 point performance this week & his 7 point performance last week. That & starting Schaub over Flacco in last week.

Witten as my TE.
Turner has only had one game worthy of a first round pick.
Best had one monster game, but I feel like I'm never going to know what I'll get with him.
Shonn Greene. 'Nuff said.
Steve Smith South and Dwayne Bowe were supposed to be two of my top 3 WRs. Oops.

I'm 1-3, not surprisingly.

I was ready to lose it when I thought Kubiak benched Foster the whole game but yeah Fosters been bailing me out all season not bad for 9th round pick I guess hes like tylenol for my team.

I've got Michael Crabtree & Justin Forsett on most of my teams

After the Lynch trade, cut my losses on Forsett and dropped him in most of my leagues

britblazerdude · Post #14 » by **britblazerdude** » Thu Oct 7, 2010 7:44 pm

Drafting Garcon and Crabtree was a nightmare. Both dropped now though. Michael Turner was my first round pick and has sucked so far.

ZedgetRedd · Post #15 » by **ZedgetRedd** » Thu Oct 7, 2010 11:56 pm

Michael Crabtree. I have made some good pickups (Hillis, Tony Moeaki, Brandon Llyod, Louis Murphy) but there were a lot of good players I could have dropped Crabtree for but didn't. Now I just have to hope he does better.

yea i got turner in first round, he hasnt been that great

i got mendenhall in 2nd round....hes the one ive been winning so far

JDP · Post #17 » by **JDP** » Fri Oct 8, 2010 7:39 pm

Yeah I drafted Turner in the first too but I'm not too worried he had one pretty good game, could had a huge game against AZ and layed a brick vs. Pittsburgh but I think hell be alright the Falcons are giving him his carries and he isnt being over worked.

thats alot better then my rotation, I got rice #1 and Turner #2, luckily for me i was able to turn Turner/Romo into AP

. I'm just lucky I have the best TE in the game right now (gates) and consistent WR like White and D. Jackson at least until Colb came back :lol:

. I have the worst QB rotation in my league (cutler/flacco/mcnabb) and I"m still winning :lol:
