I think most people kinda saw this coming with LJ. Frank Gore has got to be a major disappoint though.
my list is: 1. LJ 1a. Brees somehow they both ended up on my team....hooray! by the grace of god im 4-1, and i managed to trade LJ for edge james and selvin young
What I want to know is this -- did Drew Brees suddenly lose all of his mojo, or is Deuce McCallister REALLY that good? It's really weird how the Saints minus McCallister have gone from near NFC champions to winless in five games.
Brees also lost Joe Horn which hurt them a lot, plus they're not surprising teams like they did last year. Now we'll see how good Bush really is.
They were in trouble before McCallister went down. Like Silkmandarin said... losing Joe Horn hurts a lot. He was like the glue of that team. Also it's not like Brees has great receivers to throw to. Colston overachieved last year and Devery Henderson is not very good at all. Saints are in a world of trouble.
I started Kitna, Addai, and Marvin Harrison yesterday.... I also thought I would be cute and pick up the Saints defense and start them. I got 92 points and got my ass kicked this week.
Let's see... Starting QB - Schaub - 294 yds, 0 TD, 1 INT, 1 fumble, 1 fumble lost = -1 Starting WR - B. Berrian & D. Driver - combined for 5 catches for 61 yds, 0 td = 4.5 pts Starting RB - S. Alexander - 25 yards rushing, 3 rec for 7 yds, 0 td. = 3.5 pts Starting RB - R Bush - 67 yds rushing, 9 rec. 52 yds, 0 td = 9.5 pts TE - O. Daniels - 6 rec for 96 yds, 0 td - 7 pts WR/RB - A Davis - 4 rec 79 yds, 1 tackle, 0 td Anyone see a theme here? I'm going on 1-4. I was 5-0 this time last year. The only change I could have made was playing Jones-Drew instead of Alexander. Thank g-d I benched Jamal Lewis at the last second. It sadly could have been worse.
Addai may have cost me my undefeated season. I still have T.O. and the Cowboys defense tonight, but I'm down 26 points. The other guy still has Lynch tonight.
Well, you should have paid more attention, Indy was going to rest the injured people with a bye coming up so everyone will heal in three weeks.
I was paying attention and sat him, I knew he wasn't going to play whenever they said he would be inactive like a couple hours before the game. I started Selvin Young in his place... he didn't do sh*t. I had Jacobs on my bench too, who I should of started over Welker in my flex spot.
I got 3 points from Jay Cutler this week. The sad thing is that I'm actually satisfied with this score after starting Bulger for the the last 4 weeks.
Kitna gave me 0. Fortunately, the rest of the team pulled their weight. I picked up Rivers for the Kitna's bye week. I wish I would have started him instead. He put up 28 points.
I lost with Shaun Alexander, LT, Randy Moss, Steve Smith and Chris Cooley on my team. Just one of those off weeks for FF.
Jake Delhome is going out with a season ending elbow surgery. Steve Smith value goes down. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3054365
Up 10 going into tonight. I have Crayton and Witten, he's got Trent "are you kidding" Edwards. Should be okay, but TDs always decide the outcome. Going to start trying to work people over with trades this week. Weeks 6 and 8 have 6 teams each on a bye, so everyone's going to have to scramble. I'd trade Alexander quick if I could. Maybe wait until after he puts up decent numbers at home against NO, but I wouldn't hold onto him. He killed me last year. Evan
