Our team was 8 and 0 going into last weekend and are now on a two game loosing streak! We are ahead for right now, but only by a few points and he has A. Green playing tonight. I am chalking this game! Any suggestions for what we can do? I have great players on my team, but know that the RB position is weak. Tiki and Rasta Ricky were doing pretty well holding down the fort on the RB side, but now no one is holding up their end of the bargain! My lineup yesterday was :
Manning, Harrison, Holt, Toomer, Williams, Tiki, Crumpler, M. Anderson (pickup for the bye week), Strahan, D. Jones, and D. Sharper tonight. This team shouldn't be loosing! I did have Horn and Sharpe on a bye, but Toomer should have been able to step up. Any suggestions?? Not sure if this is the right forum to put this in, but we'll start here! Thanks!

Obviously your team is solid, with a weakness at RB due to recent struggles from your starters. Recent injuries to Garcia and Harrison haven't helped, coupled with some byes this week.
Don't sweat it, you'll be fine.

I'm in the same boat with RB's ... Have Ricky and Edge and am gonna sit one of them for Dominick Davis this week - but can't decide which one.
Anyway, what I was going to say was just ride it out and don't leave any points on the bench if you can help it.
I'm just a little Hawaiian and a homesick Island boy,
I want to go back to my fish and poi ...
I will try and keep things in perspective Lushcrush. I feel sorry for you having both Edge and Ricky. I had them both last year and went through this same thing halfway through the season as well. Hopefully they will all get beyond this funk that they are in. We're hangin' tough! Good luck to you!
