I've been looking for a league to drop as I think I'm in too many and believe I finally figured out which one. Apparently they decided to start counting incompletions at a -1 rate since you get +1 per completion. That's fine and all but leads to such ridiculous amounts of volatility that it's stupid and something you can't really plan for. Anyone disagree?

thinking it's time to bench jennings unless he figures out how to tell rodgers to throw him the ball.

Agreed. I had him benched for Collie earlier then changed my mind and switched them. I'm sure Collie will explode now.

I think PPR is dumb enough to begin with, but PPC sounds really dumb

I scored 32 points in my pay league. THIRTY... TWO... POINTS... God I hate Fantasy Football sometimes. Grrrrr.

Of course in my "just for fun" league I score 170. WTF.

Geez, I get more points on the bench than that. What is your roster?

I'm 2-0 in my league now. This week I was going against who was #2 last week(I was #1), but I destroyed him. Everyone on my roster scored at least one touchdown except one WR, Ocho. Brandon Jackson didn't see a lot of action, but got that one touchdown that made it worth it for me to play him. I almost thought Nicks wasn't going to get me a single point last night... but he managed to get a touchdown in the 4th quarter with only 2 receptions the whole game.

I really, really want to bench Romo and put in Cutler, but Cutler is up against GB next week. Cutler has almost double the TD's as Romo so far, and fewer interceptions. He has clearly proven his ability. The real question might be, Brandon Jackson or Matt Forte...

Need advice on which player to start at my flex position for week 3:

Ronnie Brown vs NYJ
Mike Sims-Walker vs PHI
Donald Driver @ CHI

I've been using Ronnie Brown in my previous two weeks and he's done well, but I'm wondering how he'll fare against the NYJ defense. Any opinions?

Unless it's a top 3 player at his position, my general play has been to keep guys playing against a defense like the jets last year on the bench. Judging from the points in the games it seems to be a good choice.

Wow. Ok, Favre and Percy are dead in the water, dump them. You NEED a new QB, because your backup is useless. You also need a new WR because Floyd probably won't be much help either, check out Morgan from 49ers since he got a LOT of action last night. You should also take a look at other defenses. Ward is Steelers isn't he? Steelers aren't doing much passing till rawfulburger gets back. Shockey isn't seeing a lot of action either.

You should shuffle your players back in the deck and draw again. Your RB's are scoring all your points.
