We Hit Dingers: Week 6 Fantasy Football Recap

Tuesday, October 18, 2016

This week I went 2-2 in my leagues, going 2-0 in ESPN leagues and 0-2 in my Yahoo leagues.

This week I got a huge week from Lamar Miller who has become the bellcow back for the Texans and it getting big workloads. Considering the poor QB play that they have gotten thus far from Brock Osweiler, I feel confident that Miller will continue being a number one running back. Other than Miller, my roster did not perform well and I am lucky that my opponent has obviously given up caring or trying and started a roster with five players who didn't even play this weekend.

Another lackluster week from Russell Wilson and I'm starting to question whether I start him every week from now on. I got monster weeks from Rob Gronkowski who has benefited from Brady's presence and LeSean McCoy who went off on San Francisco's defense.

Even my trade for Cam Newton earlier this week wasn't enough to salvage this roster and the many duds they laid. Le'veon Bell, along with the rest of the Steelers' offense, had a bad week, and along with every one else on the roster, failed to live up to projections. I am getting annoyed with Yahoo fantasy football.
