JD Fantasy Football 2006

[Ryan]

Maybe they could snap it straight to him eliminating the need for a QB, and then just put an extra FB or a TE in there to block? 

[Morgbug]

If it was LT and not Jordan, I think they could get away with it.  My only hope is the schedule eases a bit and they find someone, maybe in prison or something, to play on the line.  Maybe pull a quarterback out of a bar too.

[Dressel Rebel]

I meant besides that, Rob.     Man, they suck. 

I think we're gonna see Randy Moss leave this year, he's getting mouthy TO style.

[Dressel Rebel]

And let the injury games begin!!

WR Donte' Stallworth (probable) - hip
WR Terrell Owens (out) - broken hand
RB Ahman Green (questionable) - hamstring
RB Corey Dillon (unknown status) - unknown injuries --******* secretive Patriots--
RB Travis Henry (questionable) - toe
WR Amani Toomer (probable) -quad/dehydration
K Adam Vinatieri - (questionable) - groin

All this in 2 weeks.

Depth (n.) - the quality of being deep; deepness.  Luckily I might have some.

I don't think it's fair to put TO on your list of woes until he actually misses a game - the radio here has him saying that the plate is in and he's cleared to play once he feels like it doesn't hurt to catch a pass.

Theoretically he can't damage the finger.

It's my list of injuries.  Injuries that happened.  He's injured.  It's not my list of injuries of players that "actually missed a game,"  it's the fact that their status is in question and I don't know if I can start them or not.

[Rob]

Fair enough - I'm betting that by next weekend you'll be starting him though.

Despite the 3 to 1 advantage, I may actually be screwed here.  Corey Dillon left the game hurt in the first quarter.  Meanwhile Tatum Bell is running wild with almost all the Denver carries.  I dunno if I'm gonna get a TD from my TE Watson or Colston on MNF to take this one.

With Tomlinson, Owens, Stallworth, and Vinatieri on the bench, I was expecting a close game.  But I thought with my 3 to 1 advantage in the endgame I'd take this.  Gonna have to sweat this out.  Plummer just helped me by throwing a TD to Javon Walker in the RZ to close out the half.  No score for Tatum yet.

Damn, all the Yahoo "experts" were saying Mike Bell, not Tatum, was gonna get the carries...

[Dressel Rebel]

Well I got screwed by Dillon getting hurt.  Add him to the list I guess.

Marques Colston has to have a TD or 100 yards on MNF for me to win.

[Morgbug]

So the key here is to score less and you win?   I finally put together a half-assed weekend from my guys and I end up losing.  I figure Bryant and the Niners cost me the win by coming back down to earth.

Your 67.80 points would get you a W just about every week.  If you scored that every time, I think you'd be 11-3 at the end of our fantasy season.

Trust me, scoring fewer points doesn't add up to wins.  This is the first game I won and I needed 20 points from my kicker and 20 points from my QB to get it done.

[Dressel Rebel]

I think we have a pretty well balanced league, I don't see many easy wins on my schedule.  I don't think too many games are gonna be won by scoring 50 points or less.

Looking at Armadillos team yesterday, I thought even having 4 studs on my bench (LT, TO, Stallworth, Vinatieri) I was gonna get him, but holy **** that trio of Ronnie Brown, Willie Parker, and Tatum Bell had me in fits.  Throw in Chris Chambers and a Daunte C-Pep who gets his game going, Armadillos could even win the league.  Things can change fast, looking at the teams who had the best draft, I didn't consider I might lose that game.

All eyes tonight on Drew Brees targeting Marques Colston in the red zone like he has in the previous 2 weeks!
