then everyone's team sucks

grab a goal line rb, and hope for the best

Yea a 20 man league you just have to have the guys off the bench that get the goal line carries or have the break out speed. Punt and kick returners are huge in big leagues as well. Anything for that extra 6 points in a league that big. Really surpised that Davis and West were even available in a 20 man league that does not seem right.

He's such a great talent I just can't believe he only has one Super Bowl I'm hoping by the end of his career he has like five but his team just chokes in the playoffs

Better to have won one and choke in the playoffs then to have been to 4 and lost.

Just saying.

McCoy is playing this week - per boobie Dixon.

Tyrod will give an answer by friday but is feeling better everyday and has called people around the league that have had this injury to better understand what he should do. Sammy is confident he will play. Maybe this week isnt going to be so bad after all.

- CoHo_to_B-Lo


Still can't see us beating the Bengals. I'd be cool with resting McCoy for another week and Taylor if they need it. Rather not aggravate something. Let EJ show if he can do anything v the Bengals and Jags and then bring them out against Miami

A 20 man league might be the dumbest idea I've heard of.

That has to take all day for a draft.

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH ABOUT MY PACKERS!!!!


In all honesty... we haven't had the defense and we always run into the team that goes onto the SB... NYG twice, SF twice, and SEA twice.

When we were 5-0 a few years back the bengals are the team that started our skid, they also have not won in the ralph in a very long time i believe.

It is very odd to me that it is a pick em' game. Bengals should be favored by 6 or 7. Seems like a trap.

Add in that 2-4 douches that takes 3x's longer to make a pick than anyone else.

chara for mcginn, larsson, ruhwedel and a third


this puts the skunk on the 3rd line

it also allows the sabres to call up schaller and have a legit 4th line instead of plugging top 9 castoffs on the 4th line

chara does a ton of good for pysyk, risto and mccabe

it also pushes webers ice time down big time

rest chara on the back to backs and watch this team gel

- homiedclown


Wait....all this for a 38 year old Chara????

Nope.

In a 20 man league? There should be 80-100 RBs on peoples rosters. So yes every RB2 in the league and most RB3s would be on a team.

I don't have experience with leagues that wide, but in those, your bench players are literally your bench players.

I have zero confidence in Manuel being able to elevate his game when things go south. Just about all of his decent performances have been when there has been little to no adversity and things were going well in all phases.
- buffalofan19

It's a pretty small sample size to go off of, and considering you and everyone else will discount the Panther game, it's kind of hard to give him credit for anything.

Depends, Did your keep paddling furiously with no hope of ever getting better or did you tank once you figured out you were never gonna win it?

A chance to go to 4-2 and add another win against an AFC opponent is huge. You have to send out the best players. Even if they aren't 100% they are still a better option than a fully healthy 2nd and 3rd stringer
