    Cam had a great game. I'll admit that I was wrong. I wanna see him do it for a few weeks though before crowning him a superhero just yet.

    Regardless, the only thing up for dispute was Best or Manningham and Best was an outright winner.

    Yes he was and I'm glad I went with him. Not like I needed him since I am winning by 60 pts w/ Reggie Bush still to play for me. I could've had a chance to break 200 this week if Steve Smith had miraculously made his way into my lineup. Who the fuck saw that coming. Oh well Win is a win

    NFL.com is projecting Shonn Greene to put up a whopping 1.5 points in my PPR league. That's gotta be a god damn joke. In that same breadth, Ray Rice is projected at 43 points.

    No one is crowning him a superhero, just pointing out that it was absurd to call him Jamarcus 2.0.

    Patience, my friend.

    Dude is 3/3 in putting up successful fantasy seasons.
    Week 1 and 2 is when I've been able to pull off some great trades due to panicky owners.
    I've actually offered the CJ owner in my league Beanie and Hightower for CJ.

    ^ I actually won the game with the team I have Chris Johnson by 4 points.


    I was reluctant to draft him fearing some sort of pull due to no training camp. So, in the long run, I'm pleased they are holding him back.

    that said, tennessee did nothing on the ground.

    second WR spot, .5 PPR

    Jeremy Maclin vs. ATL
    Davone Bess vs. HOU
    Santana Moss vs. ARI

    I love Maclin's upside for later in the season, but got burned by him this past week and would hate to do so again. Bess and Moss both had solid outings on my bench, mainly due to the PPR format, and Arizona just gave up a ton of yards through the air to Carolina.

    Sometimes, when I get lonely. I fantasize about football players too. I'm glad there is a support forum out there for people like us.

    Two things,
    Sproles v. Tomlinson

    Then...
    Nate Washington, Maclin, Jacoby Jones, or Garcon?

    I'm leaning towards Tomlinson and Jones right now.

    2.) Cadillac Williams @ NYG or Steve Smith (panthers) vs GB
    .2 points for carries and .5 per reception

    imho, blount will have a better game. the problem with blount is he can't pass protect or catch so once they get behind he's non existent.

    MJD is an obvious choice even against us, because he's going to get work no matter what and be the focal point of the offense.

    if it was PPR i'd say MJD and Bush, but i think blount will do this week and get in the endzone.



    i'd also take Rex (considering what arizona's pass d looked like). it's hard for rookie qb's to have 2 consecutive good weeks, especially against a defense like the packers.

    yeah, i wouldn't touch Maclin yet. I avoided him in all my drafts because of what you stated.

    Bess will get plenty of chances due to the attention they're going to give Brandon Marshall. I have him also and will probably play him over Ben tate if Arian foster comes back.

    moss is the #1 WR there, so that's a no brainer.

    Second qb in a two qb league.

    Matt Cassel vs the lions or Alex smith vs the cowboys.

    I'd go with Cassel, Smith couldn't do much against the Seahawks...

    Cassel couldnt do shit week one either. I'm probably gonna stick with him for another week or two and hope he goes back to being somewhat reliable.

    I should've elaborated a little more, I don't trust any shitty QB against a Ryan defense. The Chiefs are more prone to breakout than the 49er's in my opinion.
