Week 5 Fantasy Wrap-Up

Untitled-1_copy_medium_medium_medium

Despite having the fourth lowest point total in the official POD fantasy football league this past week, I ended up winning to improve my record to 4-1 on the year.  I lucked out for sure, as my opponent had both Deuce McAllister and Lance Moore playing in last night's game for the Saints.  Had the two combined for just 8 more yards, I would have lost, so luck was definitely on my side.

Better Than Millen (me) 77.84
STUD: QB Jake Delhomme 19.54
DUD: WR Santana Moss 0
BENCHED: WR Muhsin Muhammad 13.1
OPTIMUM: 105.64 RATING: 73%

STUD: QB Kurt Warner 24
DUD: TE Jerramy Stevens 0
BENCHED: RB Tim Hightower 16.5
OPTIMUM: 93.9 RATING: 82%

In the POD overflow league, I lost for the second straight time.  I only put up 69.46 points but did have a coaches rating of 94%.  That was only because nearly half my bench had a bye, but that is good news for next week since I'll be getting a couple starters back, which hopefully will get my point total at least in the 70's.  In the SBN/AOL league I improved to 4-1 after winning 106.2-69.65.  I had a coaches rating of 88% and appear to be in good shape as the season continues.

Should be a good matchup for

week 8, Sean. This league is doing me good so far. I’m leading in another and middlin’ in a few more.

After I hit a home run I had a habit of running the bases with my head down. I figured the pitcher already felt bad enough without me showing him up rounding the bases. ~Mickey Mantle
