That trade seems like one of those moves for the sake of making a move. I think theTREE got the better of that one.

I agree, I (theTREE) didn't mind it one bit

That's ok, if Jennings can do what he does during Pre-season, he is golden. Plus, he is starting anyhow.

Fantasy time again!

Need my backs to get going; just a combined 4.2 points in first half from LeSean Jackson and Mike Turner.

No complaints about Brandon Marshall and Julio Jones, though.

RGIII's value clearly on the up.

I don't have RGIII on my team. I saw he was on the trade block, and his 1st half today looked very impressive.

Adrian Petersen looks like he's back.

All of *******s' receivers are having career days. Dangelo having -1 rushing yards doesn't help. Looks like an L for me unless DMC drops 3 TDs tomorrow.

Looks like there's something wrong with the scoring system on Yahoo Sports. It seems to be attributing all points correctly according to the league settings, except for any TDs scored by any player. Applies to all matchups.

Hopefully this gets updated! I looked on Twitter and everyone seems to be complaining about this, so I'm sure it'll get solved soon.

Yup - definitely liking the upside of my WRs! Need them to cover up for my shaky RBs outside of McCoy.

That sounds wholly in the past tense.

Either that or you sell high now.

That is past tense, I went ahead and took him off the trading block. I was not quite expecting him to put up almost twice as many points as Cam Newton in week 1.

Nutcrushin *******s got the third-highest point total of the week from Julio Jones (25.80) to thump Johnny Carson Palmer 132.34 - 91.88. Nutcrushin *******s piled up 31.0% more points than projected (101.03) while Johnny Carson Palmer fell short of their projections and got just 84.1% of their projected 109.24 points. Michael Vick led Johnny Carson Palmer with 19.88 points while Darren McFadden brought in 18.30. Nutcrushin *******s starts the season with a 1-0 record, good enough for third place. Johnny Carson Palmer opens at 0-1 and in 10th place.

Nutcrushin *******s Smooth Moves

Julio Jones ranked third in the league in scoring with 25.80 points.

What If

Besides Johnny Carson Palmer, Nutcrushin *******s would have defeated eight other teams this week.
If Nutcrushin *******s had scored 2.91 more points, they would have beaten all teams in the league this week.
Johnny Carson Palmer would have lost to eight other teams besides Nutcrushin *******s this week.

Even in the loss, the 18.30 points scored by Darren McFadden was the ninth-highest score of any RB in the league this week.

That is cool, here is the review of my loss. If I had only started RG3 . . .

Quote:
DC's Djokovices (1-0) registered the second-highest point total in the league this week to beat theTREE (0-1) 135.00 - 117.62. DC's Djokovices scored first and went into Sunday in front 20.50 - 0. They gave up that lead after the late Sunday games and were behind by 1.72. However, with the help of 17.20 points from Ben Roethlisberger, DC's Djokovices ended Sunday night ahead.

DC's Djokovices Smooth Moves

With 24.40 points, C.J. Spiller ranked sixth in the league in scoring and beat his scoring projection by 292.9%, which was the highest percentage in the matchup.
Ray Rice put up 22.80 points, which was the 10th-highest score in the league this week.
Andre Johnson scored 21.90 points, the fourth-highest WR score in the league this week.
With 14.20 points, Jermichael Finley had the fourth-highest score of any TE in the league this week.
DC's Djokovices had 6 of their 9 starters exceed their projected points.

theTREE Regret Tracker

Did not start Robert Griffin III, who scored 25.00 points to rank fourth in the league in scoring.
The TE position was a letdown for theTREE, where they were outscored 14.20 - 6.30 by DC's Djokovices.
theTREE was not able to win even though only 3 of their 9 starters fell short of their projected point total.
Cam Newton, who had the highest projected points in the matchup with 22.00, only scored 14.52 points.
Greg Jennings could not reach his projected point total, scoring only 47.0% of his 12.55-point projection with 5.90 points.

What If

Besides theTREE, DC's Djokovices would have defeated nine other teams this week.
DC's Djokovices would have had to score 56.97 fewer points to lose to all teams in the league this week.
theTREE would have lost to four other teams besides DC's Djokovices this week.
If theTREE had scored 39.59 fewer points, they would have lost to all teams in the league this week.

Game Notes

DC's Djokovices had three starters who scored more points than the highest-scoring starter for theTREE.
The margin of victory for the matchup ended up being the smallest in the league this week at 17.38 points.
DC's Djokovices got the best total score from their RBs of any team this week with 61.20 points.
DC's Djokovices had the second-highest point total in the league this week.
The score put up by theTREE was the largest among losing teams in the league this week.
Matt Forte was a bright spot for theTREE in the loss with 19.50 points, the eighth-highest RB score in the league this week.
Reggie Wayne did his best in the loss, ranking 10th among all WRs in the league with 18.00 points.
Even in the loss, the 17.80 points scored by Frank Gore was the 10th-highest score of any RB in the league this week.

7 of the 9 starters scored less than their projected points.
Carpet Pissers got outscored 16.00 - 5.00 by Axis of Ignorance at the DEF position.

Axis of Ignorance beat their projected points, while Carpet Pissers fell below their projection.
I would have added playing NE's defense instead of GB's as a smooth move. Or a Pats fan move...

And Ridley was a surprise in terms of FF and as a Pats fan.

Ha! Tell me about it. Brandon Marshall ended up with nothing as a result, though Marshall should have at least caught that ball in the end zone to get to 10 fantasy points.

Only real positives from the game being Benson, Packers D and Crosby.

Can't get a shot at anything on the waiver wire; it's definitely not so bad to take a big loss in the first week. Not bad to pick up a RB drafted in round 6 in week 1 (Jonathan Stewart).

Hoping for the best today with s smith's injury. And Carolina should be playing with a chip on their shoulder at home against no. So he's starting for me.
