    On the bright side, we're doing a world of good for Kicker employment.

    Losing Bell is going to be big, but at least Williams is not as much of a drop off as (say) Ben to Landry. That is, Ben on any day other than today.

    Our kicker has been great. Too bad we didn't give him a shot to kick that 51 yarder. We might be celebrating a win right now.

    It might be my fault. Half my fantasy team got injured today, and Bell was one of them.

    Seriously, I lost Forte, Bell, Darkwa, Kendall Wright and Keenan Allen today, all due to injury. My fantasy team is cursed. If only there was a way for me to get Tomlin on my fantasy team, maybe then he'd get hurt and someone else would have to take over the coaching duties.

    Add Brandon Marshall to that list. It's unbelievable. I've never seen so many injuries to one fantasy team in a single week in all the years I've been playing it, which is a very long time.

    Lets just hope Bell's injury isn't the ACL

    Amen to that.

    Geez I thought I had it bad by benching Heath today. I've never heard of a rash of injuries like you've faced today.

    If it makes you feel any better Shaner in my quest for my first win I cut Ben Watson who went for like 150 and a touchdown, started David Johnson for the Cards against the Browns instead of Ronnie Hilliman who has 2 TDs already and that is just my latest bonehead fantasy moves.

    I feel your pain, thorn. I've had entire season like that where it seems like I make the wrong decisions every week.

    Yeah, but how many teams lost an all pro center, followed by an all pro kicker, followed by an all pro QB, followed by an all world RB? Plus up and coming Tuitt on and off the injured list. SNAKE BIT I TELL YA, LOL.
