People like Julio Jones and Antonio Brown are the definition of elite. No matter the opponent, they will find a way to score. The Panthers were a top 3 defense last year. Jones didnt have a problem against them. Sure he isnt going to get 300 yards again but he will still be effective.

- Start date
Dec 13, 2015: @ Carolina: 7 receptions for 88 yards - no TDs
Dec 27, 2015: vs. Carolina: 9 receptions for 178 yards - 1 TD.
Pretty sure Josh Norman played in both games. Didnt affect him at all thats because he is basically un-guardable with his height and speed. Last week he had a sprained ankle thats why he didnt put in a good performance.
You've misunderstood me. They had Norman all year, not just again Julio. They dont have him now and are unsurprisingly not as good on defense.
Somehow I beat MB by 1 point!
How has that happened, you were tied?
Also you've got to feel bad for @Man of Leisure who has scored the joint second highest points total but is 1-3 
ESPN must have adjusted points. They recalculated.
Jeez @Edgar Allan Pillow was it you who just proposed that trade for Julio?
Jeez @Edgar Allan Pillow was it you who just proposed that trade for Julio?
Yeah, it's as good as the one you proposed
You have two good RBs so I gave you a WR. Mine definitely wasnt as bad as yours. Snead and Hunter Henry for Crowell isnt as bad as Crowell and Boldin for Julio.Yeah, it's as good as the one you proposed
Come on. Crowell has more points till now than both put together.
Also why would I need Hunter when I have Witten? Both are almost equal though I prefer Witten. It's essentially boils down to Crowell for Snead and that's not balanced at all.
I reckon this would be Crowell's breakout season. He's going to pump in RB1 numbers all through and most outlooks already have him as must start. No way I'm trading him in for bench players.
I wana do a trade but im becoming increasingly attached to my roster.
Don't know. Thought we were both at 98 with no players to play on Monday, but I check today morning and find that I have the win. Not complaining or investigation it more
Can't catch a break
Haha I've been rubbish so far and that was the first week I've been properly competitive, getting pipped by a point ouch!
I blame @EboueDon't know. Thought we were both at 98 with no players to play on Monday, but I check today morning and find that I have the win. Not complaining or investigation it more
So I'm a fantasy noob and require opinions.
My kicker is on a bye this week, I don't want to lose those points but am worried about losing someone on my roster. What say you guys, drop someone, hope he doesn't get picked up while I loan a kicker or just go without?
(Also OBJ was my first round pick and half my team is playing Minnesota this week, I'm screwed.)

Why not just drop your kicker and pick an active one off waivers?
Too many of my players have days the useless shits.
Also, Cam Newton has looked a shadow of his former self and now has concussion seemingly. Yay!

I don't want to lose my current kicker though? Hauschka is good for 10 points a week, and he's a Hawk so I'm attached..
Drop him and pick somebody else up without a doubt unless you have an unbeaten record so far and a decent match up where you can afford to miss the points from a kicker this week. It's not as if you'd be dropping some huge point scorer that can't be replaced by a free agent, there should be quite a few kickers available that will score decent enough points. If you're desperate to get him back the week after you'd likely only have to worry about the people who have kickers on a BYE for week 6.
Alright will do. I'll try and sneak it through last minute. Cheers all.
Ok fair enough, thats a risk, what is your position on the waiver order?
Also, are no players on your bench that aren't performing?
Well Dez and OBJ but not ready to cut them yet. I've got Matt Jones from Washington but never play him, he could get the chop.
Gah, i have Sammy Coates on my bench..
Crappy game. Nobody except QB reached double digits.
Now that we have Martellus Bennett and Delanie Walker, we are willing to trade one of them for an upgrade at running back or receiver. This could include one of them plus Forte/Ivory or one of them plus Crowder/Miller/etc.
Edit: also interested in a quarterback upgrade

Team is on fire, 5-0 now
Won by 1 point last game. Lost by 1 point this game. Fecking Panthers D.
Holy shit, I won my matchup in both the RedCafe leagues by 1 point. My first win in this one, 3-2 in the other.
My team is shit in this league. Im doing much better in the other league.
You are 3-1-1?
I only have receivers. It is bound to catch up to me at some point. I dont have a good QB, TE nor any good RBs.
Who is team Hill?
Picked up Kerley and Britt. Decided to start Kerley. I deserve this pain.
Team Cina's Mom need just 4 points from Matt Forte to move to 4-2 despite a very ugly week.
Its been an ugly week for team Hunter too. Hoping to squeeze past @RedIceland with a decent game by David Johnson.
...squeeze past? You're 24 points ahead and have David Johnson to play while I have Michael Floyd. I think "finish crushing RedIceland" is more fitting.
Its been a bad week, you were ahead of me for most of last night, until i went to bed at least!
Dont trust the Oakland defence this season!
Still winning?Team is on fire, 5-0 now
