Jesus H Christ, I gambled and started Brown. This isn't how one wins round two of the playoffs. I need BIG numbers from the rest of my team now.

I gambled too! Could have put Gore instead! Gore would have definitely gotten more than what Brown did!

I benched Brown for McFadden at the last minute. Here's hoping DMC has a good game.

In another league I started Maclin. Couldn't watch the game but checking the stats on my phone I thought oh, 73 yards, that's not bad. Turns out I only get 5.3 points because he fumbled :(

Oh well the alternative (Stevie Johnson) probably won't do much better.

I did a last minute switch and put in Cincy D vs Philly....that played out well. However I also had Bryce Brown in my 3rd/flex spot....didn't pan out to well. I hope Adrian Peterson can make up the difference.

I don't wish injuries on anyone, but I sure hope Bradshaw rests this weekend. Would love to throw Wilson in as my flex.

Didn't McInjury tweak his ankle again last week?

Should I start David Wilson or Knowshon MORENO?

If it was my team, I would start Wilson. Falcons are 31st against the run. Of course Moreno has been great, so really tough call.

I'm over thinking things just because it's the playoffs... I need to realize that the people that got me here should be who I stick with.

Yeah. That's another one of those fantasy rules. Stick with what brought ya.

Hakeem nicks
Julio jones
Matt Ryan
Jamaal Charles
Matt shaub
Ty Hilton
Pierre garçon
Picking the top defense each week
Now I just need to grab a kicker

Lot of ups and downs but that's why I'm here. From worst to first.

Don't get cute with matchups.

And folks that stick with a dst all season long ate why I beat them.

My opponent is still playing sf def. dumbass.

I wish to God I had picked up Detroit D last week instead of the Rams. Now my opponent has Detroit. I'm gonna gamble with the Rams instead of the Bears D this week. If I win this week, then the Bears I've held on to all season with come in handy against the Cardinals next week. *crosses fingers*

That's not a gamble. That's a smart play.

Do whatever you can to win this week. I also picked up Detroit on waivers. Put like 10 bucks to make sure I got it.

Yeah, maybe gamble wasn't the right word. Just knowing my luck, I'll start the Rams and then the Bears will show up big. Smart money is on Rams though.

I'd stay away from Houston. Most are predicting a high scoring game and their d has been bad lately against teams they should crush.

But then again luck throws a lot of int on the road.

I think there are better options available.

Thinking about picking up either denver or clevland.
