Salary Cap Fantasy Football

I've been playing a salary cap fantasy football league for about 5 years. I usually do pretty well, generally finishing in the top 4 of the 20 team league. Just imagine, though, if my players would gather points as well as they should.

My strategy for success is pretty simple; find players that I can afford that average the best amount of points per game, then gravitate towards players that are playing teams that give up gratuitous amounts of points to players in specified position. It's simple.


Why then, do my players who are going against week opponents continuously seem to average well below their seasonal averages? I think I have the answer to this question narrowed down to one simple law. . . players that are on Steve's team do cruddy.

So, here's this week's list of players who will most certainly under perform. (Or am I just writing this post in hopes that these players will have amazing games, because of that other law, the one that states - if Steve makes a prediction on his blog, it will be proven publicly wrong?)

QB - Matt Schaub

QB - Aaron Rodgers

RB - Maurice Jones-Drew

RB - Chris Johnson

RB - Cedric Benson

WR - Mario Manningham

WR - Steve Smith (Giants)

WR - Vincent Jackson

TE - Brent Celek

D - Philadelphia Eagles

K - David Akers
