    week 4 fantasy football venting thread

    in alot of leagues of course but in my big leagues

    I need vick to not get 3 td

    In another, i need a good but not great game from mccoy

    I have hartline in almost every league drafting him in last 2 rounds.
    Pretty sure ill start him at flex or wr over a mediocre rb from here on out.

    in 4 leagues about to lose all 4 including our SBR league.

    had hartline benched in a league, could've used the points he would've won the matchup for me.
    had kenny britt starting on a team didn't check in the A.M he didn't play.

    Overall a horrible fantasy day.

    I'm up 20. Opponent has no active players left, and I have D.Bailey going tomorrow to get me some extra points. I'm now 4-0.

    both leagues have 49ers as there def. so they win by dumb luck. vicious game FF can be. better to be lucky then good.

    Fantasy takes a lot of luck.

    Right out the gate today, I got a return touchdown by P.Harvin. Pretty much set the pace for my day. It also helped that the Broncos shut down D.McFadden today.

    I had a pretty decent weak, but my opponent's team went bonkers (Houston DST, Dalton, Ridley, Roddy White, Trent Richardson, Torrey Smith), right now he is projected at 150 points depending on Tynes.

    Peyton and 49ers DST helped me out a lot, but didn't get much help from DMC, Gates, or Benson.

    I'm 1-3, might be facing 1-4 because of bye's next week. I feel like my team is pretty solid but I just have really bad luck with matchups. I need to figure out if I need to make moves to help out in the short term, but these trades will likely cost me in the long term.

    I'm glad D.Bowe was active today. I was really nervous about the idea of starting C.Benson. Even facing the Saints defense. I just thought it was fools gold. With the type of team the Packers are on offense.

    Agreed. You can give Cedric Benson the juiciest matchup and he'll still find a way to put up a sub-par performance. Problem with Benson is that he is not an explosive back. He's not going to rip the 30-yard TD's. As a Benson owner last year, I learned how average he is. He's good for 6-11 points every week. But that's about it.

    He needs goal line touches, that aren't fumbled by the QB.

    I need him in Week 6 and 8. Against the Texans and Jaguars. I hope he helps me out those weeks.

    I need him next week against Indi because DeMarco and DMC are on bye for me (I normally don't draft based on bye's, but after this year, I'm going to take a hard look at bye's when i'm drafting). I'll expect a similar game, around 80-100 total yards from scrimmage with a chance at a TD.

    Is Hartline worth a start next week against Cinci next week over someone like Anquan Boldin Greg Olsen (as a flex)?

    I was relying to much on D.Wilson coming into the season. I was hoping he took the starting job from A.Bradshaw by now, or at least have a good share of carries, but that Week 1 fumble killed him. Then comes along Andre Brown.

    Let's just say I cut D.Wilson for the C.Ponder pick up last week. So now I'm left with C.Benson and B.Tate as my back ups.

    My team is really solid I've just had bad breaks. Unless DeMarco and Marshall go crazy tomorrow, I'm looking at 1-3. My team is solid, but I think I may have to make some moves for the short term. DMC, DeMarco, and LeShoure will all be on bye next week. Which leaves me with Alf and Benson as my two RB's, but then I have pretty much nothing for my flex (boldin, celek, olsen, hartline). Normally I'd just stick it out with what I have, but I don't think I can afford to go 1-4. Might have to deal away DeMarco or DMC to fill someone in for week 5. Doubt I'll get a great return because people usually don't like to trade for players who are on their bye week.

    In my 5 leagues, I'll end up 3 and 2 for the week. No middle ground or close games this week, the games I'll win I crushed them and the games I'll lose, I'm getting crushed.

    Need Dez Bryant to not pull a Brian Hartline type game on MNF to go 3-1. Only real bad news this weekend was the emergence of Brandon Bolden. Another guy, along with Woodhead to steal touches from Ridley.
