My ESPN league is a full-point PPR league and I had to choose two of the four following players to fill my RB2 and Flex:

Eddie Lacy
Randall Cobb
Frank Gore
Johnathan Stewart

I'm down by 21 points. I ended up trusting my instinct and starting Gore and Stewart and thank God I did because I only need 22 points to win and even in a full point PPR league those two worthless piles of shit on the packers could only muster 19 points combined. I will not be starting either of them again this season until they prove they can do something with the ball. I don't care who they're playing. Lacy and Cobb are almost not even worth wasting bench spots on.

Lacy put up like 12 points though...that's not bad.

Lacy only put up 10 in my league. 38 yards and one TD. That TD is the only reason his numbers were close to respectable. In a league where one reception=one full point, I expect 10 points EVERY week minimum out of a starting RB. 10 points was a high week for Lacy, and that's beyond pathetic. Gore has been consistent although not amazing, but I trust him to get me 12-15 points per week. Stewart is coming off of 2 consecutive good performances and playing a garbage Colts run D at home so I'm riding in the flame as they say. If Gore and Stewart can't get me 22 points tonight I'll shit an entire blue whale.

He also had a catch for 9 yards.

I'm trying to buy low on him right now.

Dont know what im going to do now lol. Picked up Diggs and he did great this week. Its either him or Hurns for flex next week.

I had already had a few setbackws and now with Bell, and Steve smith out, and my RBs vastly underperforming all my leagues went to shit

god damn curse.... 2 years in a row now.

Oh I'm keeping him for sure. I think he could still shine during the fantasy playoff weeks. But I'm not starting him again until he proves that he can consistently get me 12+ points every week.

At least you'll be 5-3 and looking at a playoff spot maybe, I'm just now hitting a decent stride but I'll be 2-6 lol

Turning Alfred Blue and Brandin Cooks into Julian Edelman. This week destroyed a guy in my league. His starting roster as of 2 weeks ago: Arian Foster, Leveon Bell, Matt Forte, and Steve Smith.

So how did it feel shitting that blue whale? 21.5 points combined in standard.

 

[03_SVT_Freak]

I could have sworn I checked the BYEs for my players... but with so many injuries i guess i overlooked a few... have not had them many waivers at one time before... 5 on one leave and 7 on another lol

 

[03_SVT_Freak]

shafted again on waivers...

 

[03_SVT_Freak]

Winston or mariota? About the 2 best options I can get... God damn waivers.

I wouldn't know. My league is PPR so while Cobb and Lacy combined for 19, Stewart and Gore combined for 25. I needed 22 to win so my gut was correct.

Gore vs Denver or Lacy @ Carolina this week?

Dats a tough one bob.

 

[SLVRBLT]

Barnidge or Vernon Davis? Manziel is going to get raped is my thinking.

I'm starting Barnidge. I think Manziel is going to have to check down a lot.

 

[03_SVT_Freak]

Tavon Austin or TJ yeldon in the flex??

 

[SLVRBLT]

I had a hunch Gary wasnt going to do much and I was right lol. Watch Vernon tear it up this week
