It’s weird to me that they released DJax because there weren’t enough balls to go around and now they add OBJ, who left Cleveland cause he wasn’t getting the ball. The reward is a top 5 offense might be #1 now but the downside is great My guess is about desire and what makes one happy. Djax was probably unhappy about his use and thought he could do more elsewhere. Now OBJ might think he will get more balls in LA or maybe he will just be happier playing there even if he doesn't get the balls. He might see himself much like AB in Tampa. Get praise even in little use all leading to a SB ring. Plus LA is a bigger market and nicer weather than Cleveland.

OBJ signs with LA and then Woods gets a season ending injury. Coincidence? I do not think so. Galaxy wide conspiracy involving the Aethrans and Dark Menace? Yea, that seems more likely.

It was my first thought.

My streak of bad choices continues. I dropped Dallas D and picked up Tennessee D. Now I knew Dallas would do good this week and even better than Tennessee but I made the move for the future. I was rolling with Indy D this week. So of course Dallas D goes for 20+ points. If I remember I will let everyone know who I am leaving on the bench next week so you can know who to start

If I remember I will let everyone know who I am leaving on the bench next week so you can know who to start I made the exact same move! I figured they made Stafford, Mahomes and Allen look bad and Dallas D is too TD dependent. Starting the right guys has never been a strength for me in Fantasy

Josh Jacobs still has a half left but I do not see him scoring 24+ points so I am going to call it. I won and finally got back to .500 (5-5). I have some momentum going down the stretch and hopefully into the playoffs. The WRs kind of let me down this week but Run CMC and Swift did good. They keep that up and hopefully I will eventually have Carson and Henry coming off IR to give me a stacked RB crew. Funny thing is I thought I would be strong at WR around this time but with Woods and Thomas both done for the season it just did not happen.

Yesterday I thought I had messed up by starting Herbert over Stafford but turns out Herbert's 13 points was the higher score. The Ram's bye is coming at the right time. Sure hope Stafford can reset and come back on fire like most of the season.

Not sure whats going on with the Rams now, but outside of Cooper Kupp, the fantasy points from the team have suddenly dwindled.
I easily picked up a win this week, but missed out barely on the weekly high prize, because I started the browns instead of the Eagles. The Browns were ranked higher in most rankings I saw, but I didn't feel good about playing them against this hot Patriots team. Cost me $25, but luckily not the win. I'm 8-2 and in a tie for the 1 bye in my league. I'm without Cooper Kupp this week and without Kyler Murray for what looks like a few weeks, but I should be in good shape still overall with plugging in Brandon Cooks and Derek Carr.

In regards to the Rams I think after playing the Lions Matthew remembered how bad they/we are and decided to throw us a bone. By losing a couple games it increases chances of a better draft pick from them. That and/or he got Lionitus from being around us and is playing like a Lion. I am sure the bye will help cure that. (In reality I think he is playing hurt). The Browns D is probably one of the most overrated things in FF. I keep seeing them ranked high but they do not come thru most weeks.
My FF team is all about the 5. My record is 5-5. I am in 5th place. I have scored the 5th most points and had the 5th most scored against me. Going down the stretch I do not think I can catch any of the top three teams who have two losses or less. I am tied with the 4th team for the final playoff spot but they have me in tie breaker in total points. I just need to jump them. Then come playoff be doing my best and win two games. Fingers crossed.
