I'll take a C over an A, but a B would have been better. It means I thought outside the green box, went with my gut and took some chances. I was happy with my draft until maybe the last 2 rounds, when I didn't know who to draft.

I got a C+ but I'm happy with my team. I don't put much faith in ESPN's rankings.

Got the A, but doesn't mean anything. Several of my picks are "hope you pan out" picks. Grabbin Arian foster when I did was legit though. After 4 weeks, should be a solid rb2

a D?!!?!?

fuck - I thought I was happy with where I ended up........
drafting last - I didn't follow the formula

WR & TE first two picks
Picked QB, K and D/ST early also

but I think I'm pretty solid at those positions -



but a D!!?!?!?!?

Decent games by Ben and Brown for me though. Yay for garbage time TDs!!!

So, I hope the rest of the league watches tape of that game because apparently "Not covering Gronk" is a bad game plan.

Also failed ideas:

Covering Gronk with an ILB.
Covering Gronk with two safeties who allowed him to get behind them.


But hey, they were going to jam him at the line of scrimmage.......except they didn't. At all.

I mean, he is nearly uncoverable because he's a matchup nightmare, but man, that Steelers D was brutal. :lol:

It was sorta fun seeing Deangelo Williams be good. The Pats DL needs to improve and fast if a 32 yr old back is gashing you like that.

ok - I'm set for this weekend.
took a bit of crap at the draft for choosing Cam Newton as my QB2 - so I'm starting him this week.
If he can't get it done against the Jags - he'll be gone.........


Edit - ok, came to my senses. Cam can prove his worth from the bench.

Everything sucks. I'm firing my whole team.

Fuck all you guys I'm going home.

:cry:

So, my WR1 is out 4-6 weeks. My RB2 couldn't get 10 points against freaking Washington. My TE couldn't get 5 points against freaking Jacksonville.

However, my bench had a killer week because you know that matters.

And how about TB? Letting a rookie QB carve up your defense? :lol: Ah Lovie, I should've known better than to trust your merry band of misfits. Your scheme is dated and unoriginal and everyone knows how to attack it. You don't have enough talent to make up for that.

And yet I started TB D/ST anyway. :facepalm:

And thanks to the vagaries of FFB they scored me a point while getting slaughtered while the Pats would've netted me 0. :lol: :cry:

And joe....HOLY CRAP DUDE!!!

Didn't ESPN give your team an F as well? :lol: :lol: :lol:

ESPN can take their F grade and shove it!!! LOL

Now I just have to cross my fingers that Kaepernick doesn't score 80 pts tonight. :cop:

Good to see though that most of use seemed to score fairly high. Should make for a competitive season hopefully :D

You're still in it but I'm counting on Peterson and Agholor to bail me out!

Don't feel bad - I was going to draft him, but you took him earlier in that round. I think I even commented it was a good pick.

It was a toss up tonight between playing him or Mike Wallace. They were close in the projections. I still think Agholor will still be good throughout the year but wasn't expecting this week 1! I figured they would be spreading the ball around tonight which Bradford had done to everyone except Agholor. Hell, I think I even caught a pass! :lol: Funny thing is I have Matthews as well. He has 10 catches for 102! Damn FFB! :bang:

Julio Jones- Making MattyIce look like a top tier QB since 2011.

Though, I think people are finally going to realize he's just Matt Stafford. Massive arm, will put up some gaudy #s. Also likely to throw the ball to the other team at any particular time. If Ryan & Stafford didn't have Jones & Megatron....think how ugly their stats could look.
