NFLUK Fantasy Football this week, I set an epic score, and this was the team: Phillip Rivers 8pts Rashard Mendenhall 3pts Ben Tate 8pts AJ Green 2pts Santonio Holmes 1pt Tony Scheffler 0pts David Akers 7pts Green Bay 15pts A grand total of 44pts, destroying my previous worst of 59pts. Anyone else get raped fantasy wise this week?
I had my doubts about Mendenhall entering this season after a huge workload in 2010 including the postseason......and he's not proving me wrong. 148 rushing yards while averaging a pedestrian 3 YPC in three games. I'd start finding alternatives if possible........whether through trade or the waiver wire. Bernard Scott, Kendall Hunter should be hot adds this week and they have good matchups.
With Foster coming back and Kubiak giving him a full workload.......Tate's value will be more as a handcuff than as a starter. I'd see if you could get something in a trade for him............
Thought I'd make this clear, NFLUK operate a Salary Cap style league, so my failures were even more embarrassing.
Maybe.....maybe not. But according to recent data...........70 percent of running backs who play prominent roles in a Super Bowl tail off the following year. Including the playoffs........he touched the ball over 400 times last season. Doesn't help that Pittsburgh is battling the injury bug on the O-Line again this year.
on my espn ff league te gates got 3 points and didnt even play the guy i played had him and our score was tied now im 0-2-1
in one league, you get 3 for int and 4 for fumble recovery, 1 for a sack, I was up four with seconds to go and he had dallas defense. That sack and fumble recovery meant I lost by 1pt. Also, I had second highest score by around 30 and lost by 1 pt to the highest scorer. I am the highest scoring team in the league and am 1-2 after 2 heartbreaking losses. ouch.
Funny how that works. Happened to me in the past and then you look at the other scores and there's two bums battling it out with a final of 45-60.
