Easy matchup this week...
...for you, Peng.
My team name is fitting since my team has been performing like a bunch of zombies lately...
Thanks for rejecting my trade offer Peng. I meant to pull it this morn before I went to work but obviously forgot. Think Eifert is going to come in handy down the stretch.

Tears of Joique here, back from the dead, sorry I've been so absent on the forum boys, work and family have not allowed for much forum banter.
Well my team, in an attempt to repeat, was in tough immediately after the draft, which I think went well in spots (WR) but real shaky elsewhere (QB - Bridgewater and RG3, shudder...). I was really happy to get Zeke 10th, and he's proven to be a monster, my obvious mvp thus far, and I was really really pleased with my receivers in the next 4 rounds - Keenan Allen, Moncrief, Tate and Lockett. Read that again... After week 1, Allen, GONE. After week 2, Moncrief GONE, Tate now virtually a dropper, Lockett almost the same whilst playing hurt. Oh boy.
The rest of the draft was so-so. Obviously Coleman in the 10th round was huge. But major MAJOR brainfart picking NE DST in the 13th instead of a QB. But more later on why that ultimately didn't matter, because I now have Alex Smith, the guy I would have taken there anyway.
Well I must say once the top 2 receivers went down, I figure even the playoffs were a long shot, but here we are 4-1 and tied with the big boys. When Keenan and Moncrief went down, I figured it would be huge if I could just hang on and be 4-4 through 8 weeks, about the timeframe for Moncrief to return, so I'm pretty happy with how things have shakes out. It's been a patchwork effort virtually every week, with Zeke my only constant producer and a couple of beautiful weeks from Coleman, and I've been fortunate to have my opponents throw up some real stinkers. But some good waiver adds in Wentz and now Smith (who has a CAKE schedule next 5 weeks), and fill-ins at WR like Enunwa and now Meredith, some good fortune to have drafted Travis Benjamin late (when Keenan went down) (although wtf is that -0.3 start this week!?!). So we've been able to fight off a potential disaster, so far...
Now, which of my completely underperforming WRs do I drop to pick up a kicker for week 6?
Good luck boys!
Ajayi was started in every league I'm in this week. You guys must all just be smarter than me, because that's not someone I would have ever started.
Didn't expect to win this week, but when the Saints are at home I always have a chance.

Oh PPS, good to see Julio showing everyone who the REAL best receiver in the league is.
Fantasy Football Gods are clearly displeased with the Toddfather.
Second straight week a team has overperformed by 20-50points.
Nice win hf!
The football gods didn't screw me this week... real life did. My bro and I bought an apartment (final conditions coming off after inspection on friday afternoon) so I completely spaced on checking my line-up... and left Stewart on the bench.
Now I've been bad enough as is, but at this point new members must be looking at the winners log and trying to figure out how I ever made the playoffs let alone won the whole thing.

@SmittysRant
Updated my trade block...looking to move either one of The Jimmy or Eifert for a WR (preferably) or possibly a RB.
