Yeah, that was a crazy game.
Until Romo gets a functional center & the WRs LEARN THE OFFENSE, there's going to be problems. Grossman made his usual set of boneheaded throws, and Romo can't function when the rest of the team is failing to do their jobs. That was the worst game by a center that I've ever seen.

Yeah, terrible Center. WRs too. Felt bad for Romo having to work with that. Was one Ryan Matthews over Gore or Joe Flacco from losing that, heh.

Is that right? I actually thought you had just enough margin to still win had I made one of those swaps but no others.
Anyways, now to decide whether I spend waiver pick 1 getting Flacco back or not.

Flacco was 27, and you lost by 14. Romo only put up 8.
Frank Gore was 2, and Ryan Mathews was 26.

Yep. Actually, looking at it, putting Matthews over Chris Johnson would have worked too(By 5 points, just like Flacco).

My luck really has been unbelievable so far. This week was the first week where no ACL's vaporized mid-game, but when Michael Turner and Desean Jackson combine for 5 points it's just not your week. Even Brady - my one bright spot - got to 20 points last week really quickly and I thought he'd hit 30, then he proceeded to throw 4 interceptions.

I still will never understand that Turner trade.
The DeSean Jackson thing isn't really surprising. Jackson either hits home runs or he hits double plays. He rarely has an in-between. He's really not that good of a fantasy option unless his soft matchups are in the fantasy playoffs. Mixed bag for him this year: Jets are tough, but Miami is quite soft.

Running Backs are really hard to find this year. And with Charles down, Scooter was a little desperate, and Turner's supposed to be a solid RB1. Turner will rebound, he just had an off week, while Fitzgerald was just competent (60 yds + TD for 12 points) this week, so it's not like Scooter threw away Week 3 because of the trade.

Turner's a #2, but aside from that I agree.

Turner's #15 in points despite his 2-point score from last week. If by "RB1" you mean "Top 10 RBs in our league", well, how many of those did we expect before the season? He was the 12th RB drafted, and top-10 in the first two weeks, so he'd been at expectations.
The top 10 RBs in points so far (39 points or better):
4x 1st Round (McCoy, Rice, AP, Jones-Drew, out of 7 RBs chosen, although two of the others have had injury problems already)
3rd Round (McFadden)
2x 4th (Forte and Bradshaw)
6th (Best)
8th (Jackson)
9th (Mathews)
