well, I never would have thought I would have made it to the playoffs with my FF team. I started out like 0-5 then went on a 9 game tear. and finished I think 9-5

All of my players stepped up when they needed too lol.

I rotated my QBs out between Delhomme, and Pennington. My runningbacks were Jones-Drew, and Brandon jacobs. WR were Harrison and Ocho-Cinco, TE was Gates, D was Dallas, and kicker was Shane Graham. I struggled the most in the running back position becaus my starters were lamont Jordon and Deshaun foster. after the 5th game I tanked em and picked up Jones-Drew and Jacobs. I started Drew and rotated between foster and Jacobs. The only 2 reliable people I had to get me decent points up till that time was Chad Johnson, and Harrison. So basicly I won with some subpar players, and back ups! I never would have though I would be in the finals after starting out 0-5

I just picked up Cutler 2 weeks ago, and thinking about starting him tomorrow in place of Pennington/Lossman what do ya think?

na, play Pennington against the lousy Minn defense. Losman will get shut down in Miami and Cutler is just too risky as a newly started rook.

well this was the night my luck ran out. The guy I went up against had Vick starting over Brady, had Gore, and Jamaal Lewis. He had T.O and Antonio Bryant, the Steelers D, and uh a kicker I cant remember. Oh yea and Chris Cooley. Figures none of those players really have gone off, cept today would have to be the day that every single one had an excelent game.

I ended up starting Cutler which was a pretty good choice. Jones-Drew went off, and Sammy Morris sputtered out after the half. Gates was a no show thanks to Rivers, and all I have left to play is Marvin and Ocho-Cinco tomorrow night. Between the both of them I Think they have to score about 80 points for me to win. I am being beat out 139 -67. I knew my luck would run out sooner or later. But I had a blast, and at least I made it to the post season!
