cade_hall Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) I am struggling bad. All I needed last night was for Robbie Gould to kick for 6 points 6. That's it and I would have won. But no he misses 3 field goals and gives me five instead. This year for fantasy has been crazy, Who else is frustrated and ready to explode?

Shaft Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Happens every year, it's just your Tuesday, 1-4, fantasy hangover. Make some trades, drop Gould, and start fantasizing about winning the rest of the season outright. You will be 9-4 and laughing about this post. There's nothing wrong with dreaming.

League_Champion Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I'm 1-4 in a Yahoo league but I'm going to hang in there. I actually have a really good team and have been in every game. I just happened to run into buzzsaws every week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cade_hall Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 It just seems like every person I play they have the easiest teams to play against and they put up crazy numbers against me but when they play anyone else they do terrible. It's like I have bad luck. I mean I lost by .9 points. All because of that random blocked field goal last night. I mean my luck is terrible.

stevegrab Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Nope 0-5 here, with a team that isn't horrible. I've lost 2 games by less than 10 points, another by about 15 and two blowouts. This week I basically faced Watson and Aaron Jones not much else, I had Fuller and not much else (basically our other players canceled each other out). If I played every team every week I'd win about 40% of the games. Only our total points leader would beat me every week. I'm starting to look at trading players and signing players for future (keeper/dynasty league). I've been in this position too often, apparently I'm just not very good at this, or extremely unlucky (maybe both). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpkrufus Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I’m 0-5 also, not a bad team either. Have made trades that helped my team. Just can’t get things going together in the same week. I’m still trying to make my team better, if only it be for me to ruin other teams chances of making playoffs late in the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seattle Beerdrinker Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I was banging my head two weeks ago with 3rd high total points but 0-3.. Now I am high total points but only 2-3 (and I started Evans' zero with Fuller on my bench last week) If you drafted well - you should bounce back and be in the mix.. If you didn't draft well - time to plan for 2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 0-5 with a team (16 team league) that is averaging 92.2 but my PA average is a ridiculous 123.6 what can you do but laugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week he goes off for 158, doubling his last week's score...lol. 1-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heehawks Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Yep, right there with the rest of you. Played high score 4 weeks in a row, but my team is actually pretty good. I got Mahomes and Watkinsed in Week 1, Ne Def'd in week 2, Ingramed in Week 3, and Chubbed in week 4. Luckily I finally pulled one out this past week and have pretty good matchups going forward. Downfall was relying on Mayfield as my QB. Been trying to stream QBs since week 3, hopefully I can strike a bit of gold with Minchew, J.Allen, or Brissett for the rest of season.

Fwiw looked like it was holder/snapper issues as much as it was Gould. Not that it matters to you because you only want production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zing Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I'm 0-5. I have good players and have scored well, every one just has their best game against me. After the first 4 games I was 0-4, and the guy that was 4-0 had only scored 20 more points on the season than me, but I had 150 pts more scored against me. Then this last week i played against the guy that had Fuller. It doesn't help that my first 2 picks were Adams and Hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens, but if you are scoring above average consistently the wins will come and the other teams that just happen to play a team that had a down week the losses will catch up to them. It is tough to not panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 It's been a tough year to navigate. I have stayed mostly on the good side of it but there are huge blowup performances each week from some atypical players and QBs being injured puts a damper on whole offenses. And then if you get the good fortune of benefitting from players relating somehow to Miami or Cincy or the Jets. And then inexplicable meltdowns from guys like Mayfield. Maybe every year is somewhat like this but even with a good team all bets are off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a fairly decent team, consistently in top half in scoring (10 team), but it's always something – lost first game of the year by .01 points (like, how!?), week three was a buzzsaw of Russ, Kupp, Cook, Cooper and Hooper (again, how!?) and just overall bad luck. Hoping to turn it around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
