We're not even half way yet, and star players get injured every week. I will say this much. Our scrap heap is pretty well picked over. I check it every week, just in case someone let someone that I like go. No chance..
It's funny, I'm starting to like my team. Ryan has been on fire. AJ Green and Juju have been fantastic. Fournette and Ajayi have been huge injuries for me, but Sony Mitchell has stepped up big time and Tevin Coleman should be an RB2 with Freeman going on I.R. Plus Eric Ebron has turned into a fantasy beast.
It just hasn't translated to wins yet.

Should've taken Juju.

I'd rather never win another FF game in my life.

Wowzers. A tie in a league that tracks points down to hundredths? On a stat correction no less?
I feel safe to say that will never happen again.
EDIT: I just looked, and the stat correction was 1 yard for Matt Ryan. 1 freaking yard.

The only silver lining to the Bengals crushing defeat? Mahomes allowed my boys to come storming back on your guys, after being down 20+ earlier in the day.
Nice matchup, see you in the playoffs!
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

What an ugly day. My fantasy team drops a bunch of duds. Yet another week where I have a RB leave the game early due to injury.
Then the Bengals get absolutely embarrassed.

You picked the wrong week to play a lousy team like mine.

Indeed. Having ab on bye and Gordon missing the game didn’t help.
The silver lining is hunt did allow me to beat the first place team in my money league

Not going to lie, I saw the record and thought this week would get me back to .500.

Funny thing is, after the draft, I thought I was locked for a great season. Ugh!

Injuries suck. I've lost Fournette and Ajayi. Now Sony Mitchell is hurt. Just one of those years.

Atleast that turned out to be nothing serious, just a week to week thing.
Also what are the Cowboys even doing right now? A first round pick for Amari Cooper.
And thank god for Marlon Mack somehow getting a 31 point game.

True, but that's the 2nd time I've had my starting RB get hurt early in the game. Plus I'm 2-4-1 and already thin at RB. So losing Mitchell for 1-2 weeks is pretty much devastating to any playoff hopes I had left.
The story of my season will be RB injuries. I'm all set at QB, WR and (oddly enough) TE.
And yeah, what a desperate move by the Cowboys. Reminds me of when they gave up a 1st for Roy Williams (the Lions WR) back in the day.

Well you have bad luck to blame, that's something. I drafted Freeman, Miller and Hogan to complement my genius first round pick Julio Jones. And who better to round that ensemble up than Josh Gordon in the 5th. I have to blame myself. That sucks worse.
Also, Sunset, I made you a trade offer decades ago I really like to see forcefully rejected.

I've had a few trade offers that I have not accepted. Truth is I have a pretty good team, but very thin on the bench. I feel lucky that injuries haven't hit me too hard, yet. If I were to trade away anyone without receiving a guaranteed points producer, I'd be in a bad spot.
