Poor Pengwin Needs QB Help

[Pengwin7]

Thanks to all for QB help!
I sent everybody some REP.

Great news! I now own Philip Rivers!
The Rivers owner (who was struggling HUGE at WR) accepted my offer of Brandin Cooks.
Pretty good trade. Cooks was my 4th pick in the 7th round. Rivers was his 4th pick in the 8th round.
So... maybe I should've drafted Rivers originally... but I still only lost one round of value and perfect time to acquire him, I hope.
So, I'll have Rivers now as my QB.

Perfect timing too as SD seems to have a nice schedule coming up:
Week 4 vs. JAX
Week 5 vs. NYJ
Week 6 @ OAK
Week 7 vs. KC
Week 8 @ DEN
Week 9 @ MIA

And I still have Andrew Hawkins (CLE) as a 4th WR, if any of Megatron, Jordy, or Cordarelle go down.

Veto!

Veto!

You should've veto-ed the trade.

I COULDA HAD ELI!!!
(Had him on my waiver claim until the Rivers trade was accepted. The fantasy football gods tease me.)

I'm sorry I advocated for Kirk Cousins. That was bad.

[dejeanneret]

I played against Cousins last week. And against Eli this week. Gonna be a looooooong season, methinks.

Ouch.
That's nasty luck. Nasty.

I'm in a similar boat.
I considered picking up Cousins last week, but didn't... playing McCown (2pts) instead. Lost by 10pts. (Cousins woulda won for me)
I considered picking up Eli this week, but didn't... playing Rivers (rest of story to be determined).

Philip Rivers against Jacksonville ... you should be fine. I'm expecting big weeks for all the Chargers studs this week: Gates, Allen, Rivers, even Novak.

[Pengwin7]

even Novak.

My new kicker!

[Big Ev]

I benched Romo for Cousins. Sigh. Hopefully Cutler has a big game.

Honestly, if people thought Eli was going to do that this week, he wouldn't have been on waivers in the first place.

I agree.
Part of why I love/hate fantasy football... so much luck involved.
[This is why I get bent-out-of-shape anytime somebody struts around thumping their chest about how many fantasy football leagues they win... especially if they don't]
