Week 1 best performances on your bench

[Gepetto 977]

I had 3.

Lamar Jackson 48 points  (started Jameis Winston 10 points)

TJ Hockenson 28 points (started Eric Ebron 1 point) 

John Brown 28 points (started Curtis Samuel 6 points)

These were all legitimate start/sit decisions I had to make and was wrong on all three.

Any one of these might cost me a W this week.  It's going to be close.

[Gratefulegg1973 253]

Lamar Jackson.  Started Goff

TY Hilton.  Started josh gordon

A field scarecrow.  Started Mike Evans

[kilroy69 993]

I sat mark andrews for hunter henry. 

 

10 points vs 24.80

 

 

[ZeroTolerance 582]

Fitzgerald on the bench for Diggs. The only thing I could've done differently, otherwise it was pure sh*t in the lineup or on the bench.

[polecatt 399]

I must say, I made the right calls this week.

I was torn between Baker and Wentz, chose Wentz

Evan Engram and OJ Howard, chose Engram

I know I'm in for it next week

Good for you.  you're in the wrong thread.  GTFO

Sammy!

[nzoner 936]

49er's D they scored 3 less points than my entire starting squad

[AxeElf 787]

Did I mention that I dropped Marquise Brown a couple of weeks ago for Jakeem Grant, and that the worst team in the league picked him up and started him against me today--while I had Sammy Watkins matching him point for point... on my bench?

[Ray_T 587]

best performance on my bench was John Ross.   picked him up in the last round of one of my drafts.

 

[DonS 3,063]

Brady on my bench.  Russell Wilson did OK but not great. 

[Frozenbeernuts 1,652]

Chark and Conley on a few benches.

Mayfield over Murray in two spots.

Goff over Murray

Started Darrel Henderson in a deep league. 

Drafted Saquon over McCaffery

[BuschWack 56]

DeSean Jackson.. started Anthony Miller. 

Who the f catches deep balls like that with a broken finger?   DeSean

[listen2me 23 1,529]

Desean Jackson.  Funny enough I played him in my daily lineups and loved him for that.  I almost started him over Diggs.   But didn't  Maybe it was a hedge of my daily lineups.  

[dain11279 926]

Gallup rode the pine, I still won by 60

[Ehlana 25]

Lamar and Desean Jackson. Apparently I shouldn't bench Jacksons.

[carmo911 2]

Played De. Adams and T. Lockett (Flex) Benched Allen Robinson

Played Da. Freeman Bench D. Henry

Still would not have mattered.

[Gipaldo 8]

Like many above, Lamar Jackson on bench (while starting Winston in 2 leagues)

DJax

TJ Hock

Fitz

[EternalShinyAndChrome 2,491]

Watkins on my bench.  Could possibly lose tonight because of that.

[prisoners 2]

Dak on my bench and went up against Mahomes and Admiral Ekeler. Brady came up big enough to give me a good chance tonight.

[Super Cubs 132]

TJ Hockenson drafted him in both my keeper and dynasty more so for next year and bye weeks.  Week 2 he will be starting TE in one and maybe flex in the other.

[msudavedawg 5]

Started Fornette and D Will over Eckler. 

[boilerddd 62]

Allen Robinson for a huge 10 pts. Yep my team collectively shat the bed, all except old man Rivers. 

[polecatt 399]

It must have been a rough week, lol

[vino 21]

Minnesota D for the Rams D.  Crowder on about 3 of my teams, all on bench.  Fitzy.   Crowder on my bench cost me 3 losses in 4 leagues, 1 tonight where he needed 20pts to win, he had T. Williams and scored 22.   sigh, AB gone, smh. lol

that's FFB!

[zftcg 84]

Started Samuel, Pettis and Michel with Watkins, JBrown and Singletary on my bench. But my rule is to never beat myself up if my process was solid, which I think it was in all three cases. Also I think that even if I had started all three I would have lost by like a point.

[oldtimer 84]

I was super lucky this week.  One owner started Big Ben against me and had L. Jackson on his bench.  I don't understand that at all, but whatever.  In another league, Josh Jacobs was on the owner's bench while he started Guice.  I don't understand that one either, but I think he was worried about Denver's defense. 

I did make a mistake on the Sunday morning Waiver Wire.  I let Chark go to pick up a second Kicker.  The league awards more points for longer field goals.  I already had the NO Kicker, but the Texans kicker was out there too.  I grabbed him to keep someone else from nabbing him.  In the process, I made a boneheaded move and waived DJ.  He wasn't going to start for my team anyway, even as a Flex option, but it wasn't a pleasant feeling to see him finally do something.  lol

LOL I misread that initially and thought that you benched Lutz because you wanted someone more likely to make long FGs, which would have been pretty ironic.

For what it's worth, I don't think Chark has a lot of staying power given that QB situation. But yeah, it's gotta suck to drop a guy right before he goes off.

Ugh, I lost by 0.5 points on Emmanuel Sanders last touchdown.  Didn't help I had Texans D/ST get -7 points so wasted efforts by Deshaun Watson, Saquon, Dalvin Cook, and Carson.  My WRs didn't do enough either and my poor start/sit decisions were the nail in the coffin.
