  • Is your main league team living up to expectations? Why? Why not?

    OK, we don't play H2H in my main league. As the season started, I was pretty expected to win, even by other owners. ( I won last year and we keep 4 ) I kept Calvin, Julio, Peterson, and Murray. I have had the first 3 since they were rookies.

    1. I am in first place in total points
    2. If we played H2H I would be 2 - 2

    I feel like my team is playing like crap......

    Adrian scores 2 points in week 1, and then the suspension..... Calvin has had 1 good week. Julio has been OK, but not what I expected. Murray has far exceeded my expectations so far. I have Ahmad Bradshaw, who has been good.

    My kickers and ST/D have been bad. My TE has been excellent.

    And yet, I really feel like I am struggling. Maybe because last season I was ahead by 100+ points by now, and this year only ahead by 30+.

    We have a strange scoring system, so you really can't go by what I posted... it is very TD dependent. An RB could rush 99 yards and get 0 points if if didn't catch any passes. A WR could get 99 yards and would only get 1 PPR. Same with TE. 5 point bonuses at 100 yards, though.

    Your league has an incredibly crappy scoring system.

        I've never strictly defined it as my main league, but it's the one I've been in the longest and the one with the highest entry fee, so it probably best fits the bill.

        In my 12-team PPR redraft, I am 4-0, second in total points and first in all-play record. Top 3 in H2H, total points and all-play get money.

        Most everything has worked out to the point where the only waiver move I've made is to cover the Cincy D's Week 4 bye.

        QB: Big Ben, Wilson
        RB: Lynch, Gore, Miller, Moreno, Hyde, Turbin
        WR: VJax, Patterson, Tate, Wheaton, Quick, John Brown, James Jones
        TE: J. Graham, G. Graham
        K: Bailey
        D/ST: Cincy

        My top 2 WR have been disappointing, but later WR picks have covered for that. Everyone else has worked out great.

          Won again today despite the Graham injury!

            If the WR who is leading the NFL in yards per game is "not what you expected", then your league's crappy scoring system is a problem.

                    You put your team/league out there to discuss. We're discussing it.

                      I've played in a TD only league for 30 years now and it sucks but we have kept the faith regarding the original scoring method.

                      Anyways, I know this may surprise you...but it sounds like your team is very inconsistent.

                      First place in total points but 2-2 is a perfect example of players scoring big points one week and then nothing much the next week.

                      My TD-only is notorious for this.

                      Hope that helps.

                        Your expectations aren't going to be the same as everyone else's if your scoring system is weird.
