in qtrs: down 38 with the DRAKE and COOKS to go (in what I thought was my most promising spot)
in must win to get into playoffs: won by 9
in qtrs: up 6 with cooks and gostkowski to go vs. nobody
in qtrs: down 6 with the DRAKE vs. nobody

not bad, hopefully monday night is a sweet serving of some coffee cakes

sorry for the bbv, but exactly tied down to the yard and will lose because of a lower seed...with more total points

i might actually kill jermaine kearse or sterling shepard*

*if either of them actually get killed tonight, im just drunk and bitter for all the FBI reading this and joking

Seems like a terrible tiebreak rule. Lobby next year to be bench points or something

Man owning zero A Collins right now sucks though. He's gonna win some trophies for people.

Anyway assuming Kamara plays I managed to get no new injuries on my byes. Godgers return would be helpful too.

total points or seed are much better tiebreaks than bench points. bench points might be the worst

Losing by seed seems like such a kick in the balls

i assure you, it is

i would think total points should be the default, but get seeding too. bench points feels like the worst one too, its also just arbitrary, which if youve just tied, i think youd want to go to the most objective metric

Man I'm pretty worried to face a lot of these teams that landed the Drakes and Collins and Gordons of the world the last few weeks/months. My team was deep and really couldn't improve much. But in that time a lot of those 4th and 5th place teams significantly improved. It's gonna be a battle in the semis. I see no team I'm better than a flip against.

In one semi I'll start (hopefully) Kamara/Howard/Hunt/AJ Green/Fitz/Rivers/Engram/Legatron/Baltimore. Almost everyone has a + matchup. And I'm really still flipping a coin vs my opponent.

Injuries this year really opened things up.

I think I ended up going 10-4 with the worst team imaginable. Do I even have a chance for the playoffs?

that team actually looks really good?

if you want an awful playoff team look who I played in round 1. 12 team league (guy who lost beckham + rodgers and kept winning 85-80 type games)

Down 35 in ppr with Cooks/Drake vs NE D. Going to need a good amount of help.

Traded Alex Collins for David Johnson in .5ppr on October 24th in a league where I will have to start either Lamar Miller or Mike Davis next week. Ooops.

WTF is that lineup? Did he have Zeke and ????? Watson? Gronk?
2017 Fantasy Football General Thread Quote
12-11-2017 , 12:52 PM
nope. he had joe mixon but has been starting the flex all-stars each week lol

i gotta give him credit for staying insanely active on the wire. fantasy is easy when you have "starters" and "rb1s" but he had to make a decision on every lineup spot each week lol

Totally looks fine to me. You'll have a shot to beat anyone, any week.

Man I'm terrified of facing Keenan Allen this coming week. My butt.

Wentz officially out

I'll unfortunately be jumping into Foles in two leagues, I don't think any of the other standard wire fodder will compare
2017 Fantasy Football General Thread Quote
12-11-2017 , 01:48 PM
Yeah, Foles isn't good. Has to be better on the WW. Jimmy G? Bortles?

It is far better to finish 11th in my league than 6th.

Starting McCown over Dak this week will haunt for awhile.

Maybe a bit nitty but: How stupid is it that you can't drop anyone who is in your lineup and has played when your team is on a bye? (Yahoo)

Would like to pick up a flier from MNF and drop Wentz but "He has already played". I guess it's optimal to put everyone on your bench when you have a bye...

Doesn't work like that. Still can't add/drop if they are on your bench (for ESPN). Why do you get the advantage of subbing out an injured player who played this week because you have a bye vs. someone who doesn't?

lol @ you
2017 Fantasy Football General Thread Quote
12-11-2017 , 03:18 PM
yahoo does allow bench drops though

it seems silly to "lock" a lineup that isnt actually playing. I didnt know that was how it worked and will definitely bench everyone in the future if i have a bye

and to answer your question anyway: why not? having a bye is supposed to be an advantage
