Managed to trade Mike James for Michael Vick, so I've got a decent starting QB hopefully until Cutler returns (especially since it's a PPR league). Eagles have a bye week 12, so if Cutler isn't back by then I may have to sign a Ryan Tannehill or Carson Palmer, but let's hope not.

Yeah fuck. Two weeks in a row where My QB gets injured and has virtually no points (Cutler with -6.57 last week, and Vick with 0.35 this week). And yet I still only lost by 8 points last week, and am currently projected to win anyway this week. I can't catch a break at the moment.

Barring a miracle from Sidney Rice, I should still be able to win this week, despite Vick's 0.35 points. I'm 4 points back with Jordy Nelson, Zac Stacy and a defense player remaining. He's got two defensive players and Sidney Rice. A win this week will put me at 6-2, 2nd in the league and 1st in my division.

I'm kinda screwed this week. We started talking about it last week and shit got worse with the Zac Stacy injury. My problem this week is I need to fill the K spot and most likely the RB spot from waivers, or another team.

I've been scouring everybody's teams, trying to find potential trade targets for Gonzalez, KC D/ST, or RG3. Coming up pretty empty. I could punt this week, and just roll with a depleted lineup. I don't like this option since I'm in a precarious 3rd place right now, at 5-3, and playing a 4-4 team. However, I also don't to shoot my future self in the foot, cause after all the moves I've made this year I like the way my team is coming together, and think it can be a strong contender down the road.

- At this point I'm more confident in Jordan Reed than Tony G, the way defenses are blanketing him w/ Jones and White out. Dropping Gonzalez is a painful decision but I don't want to succumb to the endowment effect and his brand name.
- RG3 would have to have a great matchup for me to start him over Rivers at this point.
- Dropping Prater is a relatively straightforward decision of value this week vs. value for the rest of the season.
- Which RB would I pick up to start for me this week? Ugh. Probably Jacquizz or Mike Tolbert. Not exactly confident they'll net me much more than 0.

So, some questions.

1) Which TE do I hold on to?
2) What's more valuable, RG3 on my bench and say, Nick Folk as my kicker ROS? Or Prater as my kicker and no RG3.

I could possibly pick up one of these guys I'm dropping next week, as I've held on to my #2 waiver priority for a while now. Sorry for the rambling, I've been staring at this problem for way too long and it's scrambling my brain.

I feel like this is a pretty good lineup in a 10-team fantasy basketball league. Disagreements? Agreements? Jrue Holiday Monta Ellis Carmelo Anthony Larry Sanders Al Jefferson Victor Oladipo Paul Milsap Tyreke Evans Enes Kanter Joe Johnson Jarrett Jack Jameer Nelson Chris Kaman

Boldin or Blackmon?

I will say that the Jags are worst at run defense and 49ers are best at running. Boldin should get yards but he may not get as many targets as Blackmon in an out of hand game.

I need a good week from Hauscheka tomorrow and Peterson to do something tonight. Also the Packers need to not score on defense and give up some points. All that comes together and I should win both matchups.

Can't believe Megatron lost a fumble this week. What a hack

^On a serious note: how lucky are we to be able to watch AD and Mega in their primes at the same time? Plus Peyton, Brady, and Brees... are other generations this lucky?

Well won and lost a nailbiter this week. In Joe's league I'm now on a 6 game winning streak, am 7-1, and am 2 games clear of every other player. I like my team right now very much. Trying to improve it by trading one of my three QBs but pretty happy where I sit at the moment (especially given that I lost Julio Jones in this league). In my other league my position is more precarious (especially with the loss of Reggie Wayne. I currently sit in a 3 way tie for second best record (the Peyton Manning owner is two games clear of everyone but finally lost for the first time and will likely lose this week). I've got a decent matchup this week but my grip on the tiebreakers isn't as good here. I've already faced two of the other 5-3 teams so that's good but I've got one more against the Peyton Manning team (unfortunately it's the week after this so no chance to move closer) and then it's a grind to the playoffs. I should be able to do it but I can't sustain any injuries and my team is practically held together with spit and glue.

I'm kinda screwed this week. We started talking about it last week and shit got worse with the Zac Stacy injury. My problem this week is I need to fill the K spot and most likely the RB spot from waivers, or another team. I've been scouring everybody's teams, trying to find potential trade targets for Gonzalez, KC D/ST, or RG3. Coming up pretty empty. I could punt this week, and just roll with a depleted lineup. I don't like this option since I'm in a precarious 3rd place right now, at 5-3, and playing a 4-4 team. However, I also don't to shoot my future self in the foot, cause after all the moves I've made this year I like the way my team is coming together, and think it can be a strong contender down the road. - At this point I'm more confident in Jordan Reed than Tony G, the way defenses are blanketing him w/ Jones and White out. Dropping Gonzalez is a painful decision but I don't want to succumb to the endowment effect and his brand name. - RG3 would have to have a great matchup for me to start him over Rivers at this point. - Dropping Prater is a relatively straightforward decision of value this week vs. value for the rest of the season. - Which RB would I pick up to start for me this week? Ugh. Probably Jacquizz or Mike Tolbert. Not exactly confident they'll net me much more than 0. So, some questions. 1) Which TE do I hold on to? 2) What's more valuable, RG3 on my bench and say, Nick Folk as my kicker ROS? Or Prater as my kicker and no RG3. I could possibly pick up one of these guys I'm dropping next week, as I've held on to my #2 waiver priority for a while now. Sorry for the rambling, I've been staring at this problem for way too long and it's scrambling my brain.

Btw Stacy is too early to give up on. Hold onto that waiver priority though.
