Big Ben is going to be the 2009 version of the 2007 Tom Brady!Quote:

Watch, Ben's going to throw 5 TDs in a game ;)
wow c/o robbins wait for the hike and then go...
The only way to justify to me it was worth trading Bree's especially if Ben is attached to the deal, is if you get 2 other star players. Its a lot, but you dont trade Bree's.
Now dont get me wrong, not saying Ben sucks or anything, hes a great QB. Easy top 5. But not when it comes to fantasy football, his success IRL doesnt match up to fantasy success.
Ben is not the QB he was in previous fantasy years. He's in a much oriented Pass Offense right now, and he should be ranked as a top 4, top 5 fantasy league QB. I know I'm nickpicking, but I know Ben's going to give me at least twenty points every game, and Deangelo too. Drew Brees is amazing, I know, but I feel like I have a better chance of trading him.Quote:

of course, i'm having a decent start to this week as well...this likely will be another 250+ point loss.
worst luck in the league.
