    That mofo almost killed my week. I was up against him today. I have A.Johnson left, and I'm down 1.15 points.

    You made the best move at the time.

    But this sort of shit happens to everyone throughout the season for at least 2 weeks

    I've made the mistake of starting Cam over RGIII every week this year. Good thing Cam had a bye this week

    This is one of those often, but random times, where we fall victim to the typical Fantasy Football quirks.

    It always happens to me with quarterbacks, too.

    I did the same thing, started Rivers instead. Need 6 points out of him tomorrow night. I'm betting I don't get it.

    I hope your luck changes and you bounce back next week. It's been a crazy NFL year so far...

    I was pissed that RG3 was cleared and starting today, since I was matched up against him. Everyone else with a concussion last week was OUT this week. Everything was good until he broke that long TD run at the end of the game. Leaving me down 1.15, with A.Johnson left. AJ came through for me though, and got me the win to push my record to 6-0. I feel fortunate to get the win, because M.Ryan didn't have a good game and I had V.Ballard as my RB2 (D.Sproles BYE). Percy Harvin pretty much saved my day.

    You did the right thing though considering the timing. Your backup quarterback played on Thursday, and at the time, RG3 was like 60/40 toward NOT playing. There was really nothing else you could have done short of waiting until Sunday and picking up a scrub QB for one week if need be.

    That's hardly the point. It was debatable whether or not he was going to play at all.
