The good: Megatron is unstoppable and Baltimore's defense scored 3 TDs
The bad: I got scared off by his injury and benched Dez Bryant, who put up 2 quick TDs
The ugly: I benched him in favor of Devery Henderson, who put up 0 points

Good: Aaron Rodgers and Matt Forte combined to score nearly 76 points.
Bad: Jahvid Best, despite playing on a team with a stellar passing attack, can't run the ball all that well. Poor ypc, not seeing the endzone.
Ugly: Tim Hightower has been Shanahan'd. I have Helu as well but I had high hopes for Hightower after his great preseason.

Good: Not much good this week, I guess Ray Rice, who had 120+ all-purpose yards and a TD. Also started Eli Manning on a hunch, and he responded with 340 yards and 2 TDs. (excited about Stevan Ridley on my bench, 97 rushing yards and a TD for New England)
Bad: Take your pick: AP sucked against a bad defense, my receivers didn't show up, and the Eagles defense is HORRIBLE.
Ugly: My receiver trio of Santonio Holmes, Mario Manningham and Marques Colston, who combined for 5 total catches and 50 yards. With Britt out for the year, no idea what to do here, but Victor Cruz looked good on my bench.

The Good: Megatron!!!!!! What an animal! Lots of other good, but he is unreal right now
The Bad: MJD only getting 13 touches. Scored well, but just frustrating and hope it stops
The Ugly: Nothing. Went 3-0 and pretty much everyone put up points.

Good: Jahvid Best dominated Monday night and got me the win
Bad/Ugly: My starting wide receivers combined for less than 10 points. Would've been less than 5 had David Nelson not caught his 6-yard TD pass. Lame.

The Good: AP (3 TDs) and Victor Cruz, who I started on a hunch over Manningham
The Bad: Brent Celek, who I had to pick up and start with both Witten and Fred Davis on a bye (what happened to this guy?)
The Ugly: My Eagles defense, which continues to be a league-wide joke. Officially benching them moving forward.

The Good: 3-0 for second week in a row. Megatron/Bowe/Maclin killing it for me in my money league. Greshem/Ingram getting a TD for Witten and Felix Jones on byes in money league as well.
The Bad: Julio Jones leaving with injury (though other than byes, he is a bench player). MJD not involved in passing game.
The Ugly: Josh Freeman, currently sitting on waivers the POS.

Week 5
The Good: Dwayne Bowe and Mason Crosby combining for 46 in a losing effort.
The Bad: Scooped up LT as Thomas and Hightower were on byes and/or hurt. 2 points. Scott Chandler playing for the injured Antonio Gates. .9 points.
The ugly: 5th in the league in scoring in a 12 man league. 1-4 but just a game out of the final playoff spot as the 6th seed is 2-3 and I have more points than him at this point.

Good: Forte, Rodgers...the usual suspects.
Bad: Jackie Battle didn't have a great day, I was expecting more touches from him.
Ugly: Probably lost Hightower for the year, after he started to look really good again.

Good: AP, Matt Schaub and Marques Colston (who is finally resembling a #1 receiver)
Bad: Santonio Holmes -- WTF is up with this guy?
Ugly: Washington D ... no matter which D I have started (my other is Philly), it has been truly ugly

Phillip Rivers is pissing me off he is playing terrible this year.
I say its only a matter of time before he goes off and not in a good way.

Good: I finally started the right defense and that was KC. 35 Points, also big Ben had a great game for me
Bad: my trio of reggie Wayne, branding Marshall, and Vincent Jackson are very inconsistent.
Ugly, I hope mcfadden isnt out long

Good: 7 of my 9 guys hit double figures in points, lead by Colston with almost 22 and Megatron with 17.5
Bad: Ryan Matthews disappointed. But part of that is San Diego throwing 2 yard TD passes and running Tolbert from the 1 instead of RyMat getting the ball.
Ugly: None. 6 straight wins and after last week now have the most points for and least points against in my league. Good team and good luck.

Good: Nothing
Bad: Everything
Ugly: Bye weeks. No Rodgers/Finley/J Nelson/Forte/Mike Williams/Michael Bush make gr99 go crazy. Any time your hopes rest on Andy Dalton, Jackie Battle, and Torrey Smith, you know you're in trouble for that week.

Good: Had my BEST week of the season, huge games from AP, Ray Rice, Eli Manning, Mario Manningham and Victor Cruz.
Bad: Not much to complain about this week, I guess Jason Witten had a bad game (PS - should I consider starting Fred Davis???)
Ugly: hmmm ... the Saints were ugly vs. a bad Rams team, so I guess Marques Colston fits the bill here

Good: A lot. 3 Teams, they had...Beanie, LeSean McCoy, ADP, Steven Jackson, Javon Ringer, Megatron, Maclin, Jerome Simpson, Manningham, MJD, Aaron Hernandez
Bad: Not much. Ponder might be a downfall as my best QB in a pay league. Romo was ok, Witten had a bad game. But as above, didnt need any of them this week.
Ugly: Nothing. 3-0, all wins by 40+ pts. Bowe still to go in 2 leagues.
Move to 4-4, 4-4, and 5-3 in pay league.

Not good. Got a good bit of yardage but not much td output. Lost 1 already to go to 7-1 and am down 103-75 with Rivers and he has VJax so I'll go to 6-2.

Good: Stafford and Megatron continue to dominate
Bad: 6 game win streak in jeopardy
Ugly: The Cowboys. Dez, DeMarco, and Dan Bailey with 11 points combined when they were projected to put up 32.
I need 17.25 from Ryan Matthews tonight to salvage a victory. Definitely possible considering Tolbert is out and he put up 26.9 against the Chiefs earlier in the season.

Good- Majority of my team were on a BYE this week. Had Manning, AP, Victor Cruz,Steve Smith and Saints D score double digits
Bad- Pettigrew, Burleson and Vinateri combined for a whopping 9 points
Ugly- Guy I played had the Lions D and thanks to St.Timmy they scored fucking 40 points and I lose by 1 point 116.45 to 115.45. I was hoping for one last Philip Rivers sack or turnover :thumbdown:
