Why? Because we need one!! Who all plays and who do you have on your team?

I'm in an 8 man league that I finished 5th in last year, and I am in a weird 10 man league that has defensive players and weird scoring. The 8 team league is very competitive. Here's my squad...

QB - Peyton Manning
WR - Calvin Johnson
WR - Larry Fitzgerald
TE - Julius Thomas
RB - Alfred Morris
RB - Reggie Bush
W/R/T - Julian Edelman
W/R/T - Torrey Smith
Def - K.C. Chiefs
K - Blair Walsh
Bench - Nick Foles, Darren Sproles, Marques Colston, Kelvin Benjamin, Jason Witten and Wes Welker

your Def is the Chiefs ? does that mean the whole defense ? did you see last years game against the Colts, the 2nd half ?
Okay the defensive line and LB's are very good.... usually... but the way the team played sunday ..we take the i out of Cheifs

My 2 teams are shaky, both 12 team drafts:

QB- Aaron Rogers QB-Nick Foles
RB-Shane Vereen RB-Jamaal Charles
RB- pick a scrub plug n play RB-Giovani Bernard
WR-Antonio Brown WR-Larry Fitzgerald
WR-Julio Jones WR-Cordarelle Patterson
Flex-Cordarelle Patterson Flex-Jeremy Maclin

My Tight ends are plug n play, bargain basement guys.

My sleeper pick, that I actually drafted, Aaron Hurns, yes, that Guy from Jacksonville who had 100+ yards, and 2TD's.

Not very happy with my 1st team, my Rb situation is bad

Yeah the points are based on turnover for the most part. K.C. had the #2 scoring defense in fantasy last year I think.

I was close to drafting Hurns after what he did in the preseason, but I needed a backup tight end for my last pick. Antonio Brown should have got bonus points for kicking that punter!! Patterson didn't do too well in the passing game, but had over 100 rushing so he got some good points.

our rookie TE Kelse from Chiefs is hot , he is like a groncowski knock off. we will see who does better on monday though

Well I don't understand football anymore than I do ciphers, codes and paypal but I think Zodiac would be a good running back.

I was just talking to a buddy of mine and I mentioned that Kelce is quickly becoming on of the top TEs in the NFL. He's fast for a TE and he is very shifty. Can make people miss, or just run them over.

WTF is going on in New England? They look like garbage this year. Good to see the Vikings hangin' tough after losing Adrian Peterson!!

My fantasy team lost and falls to 2-2 now. I had the most points in the league in week 1 and was 2nd in points in weeks 2 and 3. This week I'm down at the bottom, but will still be in 1st place in my division. All the teams in my division are 2-2 now, but I have the most total points. In the other division there is a 3-1 team, a 1-3 team, and 2 teams that are 2-2. Very competitive league! I had 5 players on a bye week this week, and Calvin Johnson was hurt and didn't do much. Time for some roster moves... Dropping Nick Foles and getting Eli Manning. Dropping Larry Fitzgerald and getting Allen Hurns. Dropping Niles Paul and getting the TE from the Giants (Donnell?). Dropping Markus Wheaton and picking up Eddie Royal.

I'm done watching football for the year. The ol' blood pressure gets out of hand watching Vikings games, and I can't stand the corruption going on in NCAA football. Seen my team screwed over way too many times. Bring on the college basketball season already!!
