Not doing much so far.

On a sidenote, how pathetic is the attendance in Jacksonville? Move em to LA.

They actually sold out every game this year for the 1st time in a while. I think the poor attendance is due to the abnormally low freezing temps in FL today. People bought the tickets, saw how freezing it was (for FL), and decided to stay home. Still a pitiful turnout. I've been to games in NY in below zero temps (just have to dress for it). Floridians can't deal with the cold weather.

EDIT: Coldest game in JAX history, and before the game they had snow flurries in the area.

Hi… that was great stuff.

Jennings had 4 catches for 29 receiving yards to go along with 32 rushing yards, thus earning 10.1 points in my PPR league. It's not great for a starting RB spot, but for a flex spot or RB3 spot (and a waiver wire week 16 pickup) I'm not complaining. ;-D

Fantasy Cafe and ESPN projections were completely off, this dude stunk it up. Quite possibly the worst performance for a guy to assume a starting role from a change of pace role. Not even remotely a substitute for MJD in any format. He will be the reason I lose out on $400. I kid you not, the jags could have signed a UFL RB that would have performed better.

Soo angry

Fantasy Football Cafe compiled rankings earlier in the week when Maurice Jones Drew had not been listed as doubtful in the injury report. Maurice Jones Drew was ranked 3rd and Rashad Jennings was ranked at 46.

If compiled later in the week, Fantasy Cafe rankers would have surely put Jennings somewhere lower than #3 - the rankers are smart enough to know better that a change of pace back would just automatically produce starter stats.

Bottom line is that your assertion that "Fantasy Cafe projection were completely off" is technically false since Jennings was listed at #46. And if you assumed Rashad Jennings was "a direct substitute for MJD in any format" that was solely YOUR assumption and no one else's. YOU make your own roster lineup decisions, no one else makes them for you, and it's fairly lame to blame the Fantasy Cafe for your woes. :-t
