I picked him up on a bye week to replace Boldin's injury, and he's been awesome since. "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want." -Calvin and Hobbes

And perhaps replacing Gore with Tatum Bell (plays later) rather than DeShaun Foster (8 pts at half) and dropping Mason Crosby (7 pts at half) to play Matt Bryant (1 pt at half).

I wasn't sure if Cassel was going to play because his father died, but if he plays he'll probably score 40 points. "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want." -Calvin and Hobbes

I'll breathe a sigh of relief in the morning when the points are official. I'm worried about Minnesota's defense points changing.

You were the #1 seed for a reason - your team was able to overcome a poor outing from Orton and you still put up a buck thirty nine. Amazing. Surprisingly, we came close to our Yahoo projected points. I thought I might have been able to pull off a Goombah and have a stirring late game comeback with one of my better WRs but TO is no Steve Smith. I was unable to overcome poor outings from my kicker and my RBs. From all the fantasy games we play here on the GBB, this is my "baby" - the one I most want to win (and the one that I think is hardest to win) - so this is going to sting for a little bit. Good luck next week!

I have no feeling where the KL-DM matchup will go, so it should be exciting. In the consolation playoffs, the leads are relatively more safe, so it looks like a Yogi vs. LN matchup for 7th place. Both teams have come a long way from the start of the season.

I have won/have the lead at the moment and should hang on in every game this week, 2 playoffs and 3 consolation. I have a 600 point lead over a friend of mine who has Westbrook and Lewis to play. The scoring is crazy but as long as they don't get 600 yards rushing I should be okay. Crazy thing is my roster compared to his... Long as I remember The rain been coming down.

NFL Fantasy football week by week (for money) Sign up and you get $5 to start. I played in 3 games...a $2 (10 players), $2 (5 players), and $1 (5 players) 1st place wins in each ($16,$8,$4) I GOT 2ND IN EVERY SINGLE F'N ONE! Long as I remember The rain been coming down.
