Moreno or Sproles?
Gaffney for any of these three - Roddy White, Steve Breaston, Brandon Marshall? Gaffney ddint really perform well last week when I expected him to. But then again Fred Davis (who I also have) is questionable for this week, so maybe Gaffney will pick up more points?

Speaking of Fred Davis...since he is questionable, I want to pick up another TE as a backup. Dustin Keller, Dallas Clark, Randy McMichael, Jared Cook, Donald Lee, Benjamin Watson are available. Worth it to pick up any of them (will not be dropping Fred Davis)

And finally, Jets D or Chiefs D?

Not an expert, but this is what I would do:
-Moreno/Sproles....not sure, flip a coin? Even though I would probably go with Sproles.
-Keep White and Marshall in. Probably go with Gaffney.
-Keller, Jets will likely have to throw a lot to keep up the Bills.
-Chiefs D for sure.

yeah, you're also the asshole that suggested I start Brady over Palmer, despite my lingering suspicions regarding Brady in general, and Palmer against Denver.

Do you know of a way that I can mail you a package of kick-in-the-balls?
 
NFL.com FF bugged today. I could not swap out any Chiefs at 11:45. Apparently the Dolphins and Chiefs were locked early for some reason and I am up by 10 points when my opponent has Baltimore K and D Jackson.

I wanted to swap out Battle. I have Jacobs and McGahee on my bench. I was going to put in Jacobs for him. I thought about McGahee but Tebow likes to run a bunch. I then go to change my lineup and BAM, Battle is locked.

NFL.com's reply
My reply from NFL.com
hank you for contacting NFL.com Fantasy Football

Players lock anytime between 30 minutes before, to right up to game time pending on system updates. We suggest to all users to make sure you have you roster set at least 30 minutes before a player's game time.

Sincerely,
NFL.com Fantasy Football

Thank you for playing Fantasy Football on NFL.com NFL.com Fantasy Football Customer Service Team

My reply:

That is unacceptable as I have NEVER seen any other FF site do this. Injury reports aren't even finalized fully until right before game time.

Thank you for giving me extreme consideration in my first year with NFL.com may well be my last.

Absolutely AWFUL.

ESPN FF is on my will not play there for anything list. NFL.com is approaching that list very rapidly.

Oh well, if I had played McGahee over White I would be up by a lot. This is the second time this year I have been taught to start a starting RB over a WR.

Most, if not all FF setups I've ever used (Yahoo/ESPN/NFL.com) lock players ~15-30 minutes before gametime. Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on their part.

That said, yes, ESPN is a fucking horrid interface.
 
25 points higher than the next highest team and I'm going to lose this week. Opponent is down 17 but has Forte, Maclin and McCoy. Guess it's just not my year.
 
Finally Rivers got me some points even though he got picked 3 times. I'm looking to trade Rivers for Welker. He has Schaub and Freeman as QBs, so a bit weak in that department, but he also has Calvin Johnson and Steve Smith. Do you think its fair? I have Cam Newton so I'll start him.

Dude you do know that both Schaub and Freeman are currently ranked about Rivers right? I mean you might be able to make an argument for Rivers over Freeman but I wouldn't replace Schaub with Rivers right now... Also not for the top 3 WR's.
 
In my league schaub has 20 more points than rivers. rivers already had his bye week, schaub hasn't. Schaub has to deal with arian foster running for a million yards and TDs, I'd say Rivers has the upside going forward. It's close enough though and anyone with schaub would be retarded to trade a stud WR for rivers
