Things did not go well for me this week, as I only managed to score 65.88 points. My opponent put up 80.42, which sadly was a pretty comfortable win for him. All you need to know is that my best performer was a kicker. That alone should tell you that I didn't have a very good week.

In the POD overflow league I scored many more points but still lost. I had a coaches rating of 83% and got beat 113.36-100.38. I made the terrible mistake of benching Philip Rivers in favor of Jay Cutler, which ended up costing me big time. Had I left Rivers in the starting lineup, I would have narrowly escaped with a victory.
In the SBN/AOL league I did pick up a victory to improve to 5-1 on the season. I had a coaches rating of 93% and won 94.25-69.9 thanks mainly to Tony Romo, Reggie Bush, and Roddy White. I'm going to have to hope that Kyle Orton keeps playing as well as he has now that Tony Romo is injured. Romo has accounted for the most points on my team this season, so losing him hurts big time. I just picked up Orton last week, so I'm hoping that he can play well enough where I am able to survive until Romo returns.
The rest of the matchups in the official POD fantasy football league can be found after the jump.
