Im pretty confident in my victory. Im guessing we all have pretty much the same QB's and RB's. I think receivers are going to win the games for everyone in the next two weeks and Im pretty confident in my selections. Defenses could be important too because those extra 5 points for a victory will help give you a boost, but I think most of us have the Patriots D, so defenses probably wont matter much anyway. I dont think the kickers are worth much either..I dont think one will do much better than the other.

I already have a little bit of a lead, but I think the only thing that could put me in danger of losing is if Randy Moss goes crazy and catches a bunch of touchdowns. If the Packers or Patriots lose, that would definitely be a problem too, but I think most of us would have the same problems if that happened.

By the way, I think it is definitely possible for some upsets to happen in football this week. I dont think its as likely for the Giants to win as much as the Chargers though. As long as Eli Manning plays well, the Giants do really well as a team. Theyre going to be playing in freezing cold weather (single digit weather) though and Eli Manning has like a 56 passer rating or something when its under 40 degrees. Theres no way Eli would ever outplay Brett Favre anyway. The Giants D would have to be amazing if they want to stay in the game. You also have to remember that they are relying on Eli Manning not to mess up, which is never a great thing to do.

You never know what to expect of the Chargers though. They beat the Colts with LT hurt and Phillip Rivers out of the game in the end, and everyone thought they would get stomped. If LT and Phillip Rivers have an amazing game, they definitely have a chance at winning. Their defense is usually pretty good. They were able to stop the Colts defense, so they have potential to stop the Patriots. Even though most of my fantasy team consists of Patriot players, I really want the Chargers to win. Since Michael Vick is gone and everyone left on the Falcons is terrible, I have to consider the Chargers my favorite team. I would like them a lot more if they had kept Drew Brees though

What is everyone's team worth? I think it would be interesting to see. I just added up the market values of my players and the total came to 50.9 million. I did okay, but I think chase and zak's teams are probably worth more.

Yeah I use to like the steelers, but they dont have the bus anymore and I dont really like Ben Roethlisberger that much. I like Troy Polamalu and Hines Ward still, but I like the Chargers more. I know more about them and I like more players on their team. Theyre also the closest team to us and they have cool uniforms/colors. Also, since Im up at BYU and everyone is from different places, I want to support the team thats representin where Im from.

My team is worth 50.9 also. Im not sure what that means. If you just add those green numbers under CHG to 50, youll get your teams value. So it seems like if you just add a bunch of people that had big CHG's then you'd have the most valuable team

I don't really like the chargers very much because phillip rivers always acts like he is the coolest
