Biggest game of the season for me, no doubt. Big statement win for me though beating a team that only lost one game prior to this (me again in Week 1). Playing Stafford over Brady was one ballsy move and only 8.4% of people in ESPN leagues started him. I was feeling him, and pulled the trigger. It worked out amazingly, and almost everyone told me to not play Stafford over Brady, but it worked! My record is now 4-4, thankfully I stopped the bleeding.

This is when I begin to start doubting my team and how I drafted it. This lose against Brian (who has not lose up to this point) brings me to under 500. at 3-4. Clearly what is the problem? I have three of the best RBs, is it bad luck? Maybe. At this point Roddy White just cost me that match and Waston was a terrible pickup. Even if I played Cooley who was questionable going into the match up and was a game time decision, I would have tied Brian and not beat him. Just one of those frustrating days.

This is the week that I thought would cause me many sleepless nights. Losing to Frank is never fun since he is my biggest fantasy rival, but losing because of a managerial mistake is even worst. Lucky at this point in time during the football season a lot of fantasy outlets were telling people to either trade or dump Bowe, I did not because I drafted him high. This would be one of the last times I would bench Bowe and I learned from my mistake. This lose brings me at 500...3-3.

I'll remember this week, as the week that I had no business losing. I just seem to run into some bad luck playing Sean, because Foster had his worst start of the season and I didn't have my number one QB in Tom Brady. Ray Rice having his best game of the season also didn't help but that's how the ball rolls sometimes in fantasy football. This would bring my record to: 3-2.
