Football, Football and Fantasy Football

I don't watch College ball but it sounds like there were some exciting games...

The two games I watched this week had teams I was cheering for that were ahead by 18 and then they ended up losing the game!! The Jets and the Niners! UGH!!
At least Seattle lost (sorry, but I just don't like the Hawks)!

For our fantasy team...the email I got says I'm 2-0... could this be real??
YAY!
I have to make a note to myself to check for injured players etc each week to set up my lineup. I totally forgot about this last week!

How did your team(s) do this past weekend?

Bad! I need to go change up some of.my players who have injuries, I just keep forgetting.

Thanks to Peyton Manning and the 2 other Broncos I have, I dominated this week. I love fantasy football so much and the Broncos!

@Nicb13‌ My husband is a Seahawks fan and it was a definitely suckfest of a game.

1 win & 1 tie ugh if only my D (Seattle) wouldn't have gotten me negative points I could have pulled out a win but I'll take the tie.

Love that my Pats finally showed up to play this week though

Major Chargers fan over here so I really enjoyed that Seahawks game. I'm in 4 fantasy leagues but now I'm regretting not signing up for this one.

Booo that the Niners lost! And I am 0-3 this week in fantasy...yikes! I wiped the floor in all 3 of my leagues last week and this week it seems like everyone on all of my teams got injured.

When does that ever happen?! We are normally so bad ass!

That's why I picked them lol!!! They got me -1 & that was the one point I needed to not tie. I couldn't even believe how much they sucked that game.

I'm 2-0 in my league too! Won by .75 last night! Thank you Andrew Luck
The Seahawks game sucked a big fat donkey dick this weekend but at least the Niners got embarrassed too! Bahahahaha!

I actually thought about you when the game was starting and how we'd all have to hear about how awesome your Seahawks did and how sucky the Chargers are. However, as a Chargers fan, I was pleasantly surprised this week! Was not going into it expecting the win.

@Nicb13‌ I'm always baffled at how the Chargers can pull it together for games, like the one against the Seahawks, and then utterly fail when we play a team that we should be able to crush. Your poor Hawks looked miserable on the sidelines with all their misters and sun shades

And I don't understand how we lose in games like that one! I guess all teams have "off" days.

I've sort of noticed that teams that we don't "expect" to lose to, we end up doing more poorly against than teams that should be challenging. Sort of like how last year we shutout the Giants, but we lost to the Rams. Also, the one game we got to go to last year was against the Buccaneers, and even though we ended up winning in OT, they kicked our ass all over the field the first 3 quarters - AT HOME. Both me and DH were like WTF?! The Buccaneers?!

Yep. It's like we are too confident or something and then blow it. It's always the shitty teams that beat us!
