True, seems like I'm over thinking things. I have my roster set, just need to sit back and hope for the best, thanks again.

I've switched between Bobby Rainey and Greg Jennings in my flex about 20 times now and I might hit triple digits before Sunday kick off...

I'm banking on Big Ben's favorite red zone target Jeriatric Cotchery having a decent day against GB's terrible defense. Not much of a gamble I guess when your other options are LaFell and Tolbert. Just can't bring myself to play one of those against NO.

And in more cockblock news I've added Dennis Johnson and Kendall Wright. NO FA'S FOR YOU!

BTW any of you desperate for a RB2/Flex option should check if Johnson is available in your league. Ben Tate is out so he'll be getting starter carries against a terrible Broncos run D.

Thanks for the heads up. Just picked him up. I may decide to start him over Cotchery.

Brown, Jeffery, Davis, and Bryant

No brainer.

Still waffling on Rainey vs.Jennings in the flex. Leaning Rainey now. Dennis Johnson is tempting but I can't play a guy in his first start ever in my championship game.

Jay Cutler or Russel Wilson?

Wilson is where I'd leanslightly. Cards secondary has been getting worked the last couple weeks a bit and Wilson has never lost at home so he tends to put up better numbers there.

I say slightly because Cutler is likely to be in a shootout in Philly, and the weather shouldn't be bad so he might run up some numbers. Wilson is the safer bet, he's crazy steady this year, but Cutler has the higher upside.

Ugh, yeah that is pretty much exactly what I was thinking. Cutler could easily end up throwing for 4-5 TD's but Wilson torched Arizona earlier in the year and they're depleted a little bit lately. Fuck. I'm in my championship too and I haven't really second guessed myself this much all year.

I'm taking this risk. Hope it ends up profitable.

Just a heads-up RE: Megatron:

Birkett suggests that he will be watching the Lions' pre-game workout to be sure, but at this stage, it looks like Megatron will give it a go Sunday, barring a pre-game setback in advance of Sunday's 4:05 ET kickoff. In any case, it's a situation to monitor prior to the second wave of Week 16 kickoffs to be on the safe side.

If he doesn't play, I'm fucked.

I'm fucked if he's out anyway. Leaving him in my lineup.

Mathews and Allen still listed as probable for SD. If they don't start I am screwed, kinda nervous.

Edit: Seahawks D is fucking killing me!

Pretty much how I feel about sticking with Wilson. Fuck.



ONE FUCKING POINT AT THE HALF. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

Yeah, I can sing a few bars of that song.

My opponent had Drew Brees so I figured I was in good shape. Now, barring a late miracle, I'm down 10 pts going into tomorrow with Tony Gonzalez vs. Vernon Davis. Fuck me.

Speaking of late miracles, thank fucking christ for Leveon Bell.

Up 3 points and still have Foles, D. Jackson and V. Davis against L. McCoy and the 9ers kicker, looking good but still have my fingers crossed.

My team took a huge shit today. Oh well..maybe next year.

Dodged a bullet today, opponent talked himself in to Kaepernick over Dalton and never even considered benching Stafford(would have been my choice).



Barring a miracle I'll be winning my 2nd straight title here. I'm watching like a hawk to make sure Kelly is gonna play Foles. I think once that's set I'm going to bed.

Rivers and Allen fucked me pretty hard, he had Peyton too of course. Inexplicably I'm up 13 or so with Vernon Davis and Robbie Gould to play, he has San Fran D. Cautiously optimistic.
