Default Worst Team Ever?

In the DobberFootball league (14 teams), my team is dead last.
Dead is the key word here.

It's unbelievable.
Check out these PROJECTED vs. ACTUAL results.

Week 1:
Projected: 92.14pts
Actual: 66.12pts (underperformed by 26pts)

Week 2:
Projected: 101.21pts
Actual: 53.16pts (underperformed by 48pts)

Week 3:
Projected: 86.52pts
Actual: 56.02pts (underperformed by 30pts)



On top of this, the Yahoo! standings have some fun things like:
DRAFT DAY PROJECTIONS:
My team was projected to go 9-4-0.
This would be tied for 3rd best record in the league.

Even in the POWER RANKINGS:
My team is projected as having the 5th most points for the remainder of the year (of 14 teams).

Instead... I'm 0-3.
Last in the league in scoring (175.30pts) where the 2nd last team is WAY ahead of me (215.48pts) and the league leader is WAY WAY WAY............................. WAY (over here {waving}) 336.34pts.

The first place team is TK's Troops... who actually missed the draft and had his team auto-drafted. (If I recall)

Like... seriously?
Fantasy football is pissing me off.
Rant over.

Don't fret - I started last year 0-4 or 1-4 and finished the regular schedule in second.

By the way, I also auto drafted, so TK and I definitely have the luck so far. But the season is young.

I had never seen those projections before - interesting.

My teams (5 of them) so far are 9-3 with my roto football team in first place through 3 weeks.

No complaints on my side - though I could REALLY use Mendenhall and/or Jahvid Best and/or Evan Royster to be valuable in the 2nd half - I've got them on most of my teams.

Oh, and of course health, because teams change quickly these next several weeks if you have to cope with byes and injuries at once.

Keep your head up and put your best players out there - the season gets fixed in a hurry but there's no question at least 1/3 of Fantasy Football is luck-driven (Good and Bad) which is why manufacturing as much depth as you can is so damn important...

I am almost in the same boat... My team has been projected to get close to 100 points per matchup thus far.. I had 90 points in week 1, but have lost 2 games since.. But I had guys on my bench, that if I would have started them, I would have won both games I lost..

Things will get better Pengwin, they have too!!
