Predictions I've missed so far this week:
Dallas over Houston: Okay, knowing that Houston's pass D blows I should have seen this coming, but I didn't. This one really caught me out.
Minnesota over Detroit: Well, Minny played smart finally, we gave it up a lot, didn't capitalize on anything, etc etc. But I can't say it surprised me.
St Louis over Washington: 'Skins lost by 14 points after spotting the Rams 14 to start the game. Incidentally, the St Louis 'D might - I stress might - be for real. Didn't see this one coming either.
Arizona over Oakland: Janikowski misses 3 FGs, Raiders lose by a point, I proceed to rage. But it's barely even an upset, these teams both suck.
Seattle over San Diego: Chargers' special teams suck. Surprisingly, the turnovers didn't hurt them all that much, so I can't say I expected this at all.

Not sure if picking up Demaryius Thomas was a good move by me. x.x It only cost me Larry Johnson though...
Finally decided to keep Turner instead of DeAngelo... very happy. I finally scored more than 60 points. Replacing John Carlson for Brent Celek was great, too.
Not happy about the Skins, though.........
Huh... John Carlson got more points than Brent Celek this week though. Unless you meant it the other way around?

I hope you took my advice GTR. : D yep, 17 points =D shame that it was dallas' day to dominate. schaub got demolished today =[. i'd expected ochocinco to score more... but thankfully AP dominated the lions today for me. edit: looks like bjge is the go-to rb in NE now, sigh, i guess i'll see if i can pick him up in waivers and drop fred taylor.
Of course Keller comes in and makes me look like an ass. At least I was 100% right on Gonzalez. Fuck.
I got my face rocked off this week, as I expected. What I did not expect was for Vick to put up 41 points, and for me to still lose. My opponent has CJ, Flacco, and DMac though, so not much I could do against that lineup, especially with SJax going down in like the second quarter I think.
Whoever is calling plays for Detroit is seriously one of the worst play callers in the league. And Shaun Hill should be kicked in the ding-ding. Dude hardly even LOOKS toward Megatron. UGH. I can't believe my WR's let me down so badly this week. Had I gotten the usual 15 points or so out of them, I could have won.

Haha yeah, I did mistype that. What a game Vick had though... It's going to be scary when Philly hosts the Skins next week.

Someone dropped Percy Harvin in my league a couple days ago. Should i drop one of my receivers on bench such as Demaryius Thomas for him?

It'd be more helpful if you listed all of them.

Vick is playing out of his mind. Man this guy in my league has Brady, Vick, and Schaub (two QB league). I wonder if I can trade for one of them lol.
Vick is playing against terrible defenses

Hill's been around long enough that he should know to go to the big guy, but everything I've seen indicates that Detroit just Doesn't Throw Long, and Johnson's often on deep routes. It was a little weird last year when Stafford's #1 was pretty much Bryant Johnson, but I figured it was probably a chemistry issue, new guys bonding in a new system while Megatron adapted.
But more and more I'm inclined to blame Linehan, assuming he's doing the play-calling. In St Louis, he took Martz's "Show" offense and ran the team into the ground. I didn't like the hire because of that, but I figured they were looking at his OC work in Minnesota. Problem is (in retrospect) that there he had Culpepper and Moss, where here he's developing new players, and his year in Miami (the best comparison) was underwhelming.
A lot of the media here in Detroit are talking like maybe it's Calvin's fault, he's "soft" or something, but his numbers under Marinelli - who was essentially incompetent and I have no idea who his OC was in '08 - mean that doesn't make sense, unless it's just a vicious cycle of not getting targets -> not trying as hard etc.

He slowly ran that amazing Minnesota offense into the ground too, though. That 15-1 team was OC'ed by Billick. They averaged 24 under Linehan (according to my calculations), or thereabouts during his tenure. Good, but nothing out of the ordinary. And that was the same that they scored under Ray Sherman, and Sherman Lewis the next two seasons after '98... I'm still not sure how Linehan gets jobs.
I don't believe that CJ is not getting open, or that it's his fault. I was watching Hill very closely this week, and most of the time he just locked in on Bryant Johnson, or a TE. Until the end of the game. Then he was like "Oh, right, I have one of the most talented WR's in the league... I should throw to him!" Dumb as hell. He was throwing jump balls to a 5' 10" (at best) HB, instead of throwing at CJ, and the HB was in double coverage, CJ was single covered. I can't understand why he doesn't get more targets, and it's so frustrating when I have him on my fantasy team.

I didn't think Tony G would blow up so much like he did today. It wouldn't of even matter that I almost played Keller instead since he is having a stellar game himself.

The funny part is that he couldn't get the Ravens offense going either, so maybe there was something up regarding the HC (Denny Green? His teams have always been good offensively I think) or just the players they had.

So, I have Packers D to play against the guy I'm facing who has Rogers, and I'm going in with a 28-point lead. Hoping for the run to somehow accumulate points for GB tomorrow night.
EDIT: Make that 25, fuck Marshall and Jets D.
EDIT 2: Also, a question, E Manning has been blowing balls lately, would it be worth it to drop him and pick up someone like Sanchez from waivers?

Maybe if Baltimore ever had had a decent quarterback, that fact might mean something. They've had what, McNair the one season, and then Flacco is okay.

Drop Ward for Harvin if you think Harvin can stay healthy. If he has any more health problems it's not worth it. Also depends if you get points for return yards per player in your league.

He had a huge part in the QBs they drafted and failed to develop, so... although I suppose you could just chalk that up to him having a bad eye for QBs and not knowing how to develop them, or something.

Ray Rice and MJD still haven't done shit this year, and my fantasy teams are hurting because of that.
