Off to a rough start? Don’t worry you’re not the only one. Sure you dug yourself a hole at the start of the season, but now’s not the time to hit the panic button.
The NASCAR season is really LONG. Because it’s so long players need to approach the season patiently. In fantasy NASCAR players have 36 weeks to grind it out for the top spot. When I look at the schedule it says one thing to me, and that is play conservatively until the time is right.
If you find yourself in a hole don’t panic. Also don’t think you need to make it all up at once. Not every week is the week for you to “make the big move”. There’s a place for the “Hail Mary” but that isn’t every week. If you’re making the “big move” every week you may hit on something every once in a while (even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while) but most likely the odds are stacked against you.
Even if you are a fan of making the weekly “Hail Mary” play there’s no guarantee it will save you. Trust me I know. I’ve been the highest scorer in large games on the final week and do you know what happened? I still lost by one point.
The benefit of playing patiently (conservatively) is that it opens the door for others to make mistakes. The easiest way to get ahead is to let others beat themselves. When you have 36 races to work with I can guarantee you that door will eventually open.
