Did you check your roster?

Fantasy Football (1).png


That title is a question I ask my wife at least once a week this time of year. The NFL regular season starts tonight, so that means fantasy football players all over the world will be making those final adjustments and shuffles before the action starts.

Of course, you can make changes to your team at any time, but if you waited this long to check you are likely going to find yourself in a tough spot. I'll be the first to admit that I am one of those people.

With Tom Brady as my starting quarterback, I have been hesitant to do too much adjusting to my roster right now. It appears he has been having some family issues away from the field and I am waiting to see if that is going to impact his in-game performance.

I'd like to think he is a professional and he should be able to separate the two, but he did graduate from U of M, so honestly I don't think I can count on him for anything at this point. Even though many consider him the GOAT, I have still had my issues with having drafted him.

Sure, his team wins games (and Superbowls), but I've always felt his numbers in the past have been pretty average at best. It just goes to show you how important it is to have a good team surrounding the quarterback.

There are other QB's that are more dynamic and put up huge numbers each week. The fact is, if they aren't mobile or they don't pass a ton, they are not going to score you many points. Being just about as old as I am, Brady is definitely not mobile. I also feel like they have been relying on their running game a lot more lately. That doesn't bode well for me and my fantasy team.

Add to that the fact that he and his wife are at odds and it could be a really bad fantasy year for me.

"Not much different than most other years then" you might say!

You wouldn't be wrong there.

Oh, by the way, do you like my new banner? I am pretty proud of it. Brought to you by Canva via pixabay and some AI art from MidJourney. I think it is a pretty cool mash-up, what do you think?

Enough about me though.

Do you play fantasy football? The season kicks off tonight. Make sure you have your rosters set in case you have any players in the game tonight! I'd hate for you to look at the scores and be sorry tomorrow!

I seem to remember my sister needing to be on her laptop the other night so she could do her picks for her Fantasy FB team. 😀

Could be. I do all of my stuff on my phone, but there are times it is easier to see everything on my PC. If you think that is bad, fantasy baseball is much worse. You have to check your team pretty much every day versus once a week.

That's quite the time commitment. I hope there is some return from it.

Looks like it was a pretty good one last night. My wife wasn't too happy with Stafford's performance though.

He was kind of crap last night. Only got me 11 points. That's the thing with him, the team wins, but he doesn't put up the big points you need for a fantasy QB.

Very true
That game was bad in general in my opinion lol
Hard to watch... the cowboys are in pretty bad shape and even more now that they lost Dak for some weeks

I think it was kind of a rough first week all around. There seemed to be quite a few significant injuries if I recall correctly.

Can't wait for the start of the season to get going (especially with my baseball team (SF Giants) flopping so dramatically after last years record breaking season lol) ...not got a fantasy team this year, but i've posted a few modestly staked bets that will hopefully make me a happy chappy in the morning.

Good luck to everyone's teams, both Fantasy and Actual, with the exception of the Falcons for this week as my Saints are playing them.

I lost a lot of money this past weekend betting on games. More than I should have. I got a little greedy I think. I guess that is pretty common though! Lions managed to lose in the lost Liony way possible. Big surprise there!
