This is when the bye weeks are starting to take their toll, and as Scott Pianowski pointed out on his Yahoo blog, next week is even uglier.

The RotoWire Steak League has 16 teams and we start three receivers, and I've got bye week (Marques Colston, Brandon LaFell) and injury (Pierre Garcon) issues. So I've had to resort to starting, gulp, Chris Givens, Josh Gordon and Ramses Barden. Yes, my receivers suck to begin with - that's part of the problem.

But point being, it's pretty ugly out there right now.
