Unreal, Griff. 3 Points. I didn't expect to win at all whe I read up on Antonio Brown, but the steelers were way out of sync with each other last night. Good game!

I think you've got me this week, Griff. 5.3 points will probably not be enough to hold off your TE, with Peyton throwing to him.

Btw, Antonio Brown is an asshole.

He'll be glad to hear that. He is the only badass left on the Steelers now. Gonna be a long winter. Thomas better have some yardage, otherwise leaving 30 TE points on the bench doesn't look so smrt. I just have a hard time believing in a Brown. Looks like your wideouts are letting you down.

Yeah. .. Chris Johnson hasn't exactly been lighting it up either. I picked the wrong packer wr this week, and was thinking about starting santonio Holmes, but. .. he's a jet.... hindsight.

There was an option this year where you could sub one player after the games were played but I didn't select that. I thought about it, but then some of us don't really pay that close attention to it during the season, and I thought that might cause some bad mojo.

That might have helped me. I left a ton of points on the bench again this week. I suck at picking these guys. But I'm a hell of a lot better than the Guru.

I think the bench is part of what makes it interesting. Committing to a player based on your gut instinct about how their team matches up adds some tension to the day. Of course my gut says Cleveland sucks so I'll overcome that and play the TE just in time for that house of cards to fall.

The guru is especially wacky this week. Projecting 14 points for jacoby Jones, who is injured, and 15.6 for Romo, who should light the chargers up for 50+. Also, my kicker, henery slated for 21, has averaged 8.3 per game through 3 games.

Good close game, Griff. It's amazing how close these games have been, given our unconventional scoring system.
