You have a solid team Cody. Obviously you've been really unlucky with points scored against you, and you're 12th in the league in Coach Rating so you've missed some opportunities to start Guy B instead of Guy A (Luck/Schaub I'd guess). Your potential points up through 5 weeks is actually 9 pts higher than mine so it's just a matter of guessing right. A big part of it will also hinge on AP remaining healthy enough to be an every-down back, and Harvin continuining to be the guy he was supposed to be 2 years ago (He was soooooo ugh for me during the last couple of years).

I can see how the coach rating is a factor.
1. I didn't play Peterson in week 1. I played Rashad Jennings, who ironically got hurt early in the game.
2. Luck/Schaub has killed me
3. The week where Brian Hartline decided to go crazy and Percy Harvin scored like 3 points (because it didn't count his kick return)
4. The first 2 weeks where Miles Austin was on my bench and I still had Jordy Nelson

I have been favored in the last 3 weeks, yet I have gone a mediocre 1-2.

And Chris Johnson just scores a touchdown. Bacchus...how do you feel about that?

It is a shame he gave up Chris Johnson for so little. Had I known he was shopping Chris Johnson for a QB2, I would have gladly offered Schaub. He could have possibly gotten Cam Newton also.

He could cough up a couple balls and get taken for a 20 yard loss before it is all over...

Besides, next week he'll rush for 2 yards on 15 touches. If I can't trust a guy to start on a weekly basis, he's worthless to me.

There really isn't much light between Roethlisberger and Schaub this season - but with what light there is Roethlisberger has been the better player from a fantasy perspective.

As for CJ, the season is quickly approaching the halfway point (as he still has a bye) and the guy is averaging 5.6 points a game. I'd much rather take a shot at players off the waiver wire (like Morris who has been a tank for me) then have Chris "I might show up this week" Johnson take up a roster spot. It also removes the weekly stigma of having to wring my hands over starting him or not.

Sure, he scored a touchdown this week. That brings him to a grand total of ONE.

I wasn't saying he's amazing, but I just found it funny that you drop him and then he starts to improve

...and an 83 yard touchdown.
