Thanks to OBJ's dud, I only need to fade 17 pts. in PPR from DJ Moore (to keep my slim playoff chances alive), which has only happened 8/11 games this season, meaning he should go off for 8/125/2 tomorrow night.

I'm at 5-6 with playoff hopes clinging to life support and need to fade 18.32 from Hockenson so I will join you in rooting for a low scoring, defensive game tonight

Well all my teams will make the playoffs, but ask me anything about the decline of Ekeler and Kupp.

I honestly can't see starting them again this year till they show SOMETHING. Scary.

I'm 9-2 in the league I have both those duds in. Will be 10-2 provided Dobbs puts up 8.5

I have Kupp in one league, and Ekeler in another and both those teams have losing records.

Wasn't this Chargers offence supposed to be all special with Kellen Moore?

It's been pretty special for Keenan Allen and that's about it, lol.

Very concerned about Ekeler and Kupp. I have both on my best dynasty team. Paid a first for Kupp right before he came back from injury, thinking he’d give my lineup an extra boost. This team also has Chase, and while he is still going to be the offense, his ceiling is capped without Joe.

I have some quality depth on my bench, so I’m going to have some tough sit/start decisions in the playoffs. For instance, I started Dell over Chase in this league this week. Also have guys like Waddle, Monty, G Wilson, Mostert, etc. on my bench.

The thing is, Ekeler and Kupp have nice playoff schedules.

Ekeler is @LV, vs Buf, @Den
Kupp is vs Wash, vs NO, @NYG

The mike williams injury crippled the offense (I think they thought they had planned ahead with QJ, but he's a bust) with Jared palmer's injury also a big problem...add on the issue of ekeler clearly having an issue and you have the current offense...Everett and Parham have also been in and out of the lineup. i think this offense would have exploded if they had stayed healthy

We also can't overlook selecting QJ over Addison and Flowers.

Just a little vent here.....

Started Brock over Kyler. I could have overcome that, except I also had Metcalf and Charbonnet in my lineup.

Then McCaffery and Waddle gave me hope, and Kamara added to it.

My opponent had Logan Thomas at TE, and Ammendola as his kicker. Mostert kept him alive.

I was looking good and projected to win, all while watching the Buffalo/Philly game. He had Hurts/Swift. We all know where this is going. Thanks to OT, and Buffalo not getting the TD, Hurts/Swift scored enough points to put him ahead of me by 8.64 points.

The difference between Brock and Kyler? 8.98 points.

Overall outlook:

9 redraft leagues: clinched playoffs in 3, control my destiny in 4, out of 2. Of the 3, overall #1 and a bye in 1.

1 dynasty league: Had a big week last week in terms of points scored. Not making the playoffs, and currently sitting with the 2nd pick in the 2024 draft. Could finish anywhere from pick 1 to pick 5 still.

Thankfully didnt watch this ****-show game but went from the relative comfort of Hock's goose egg at halftime to puckered Ahole for the last 6 mins where he only needed another 10yard catch

LOL - also currently in 7th place and losing tie break for the last spot by .9 so I guess we can call that "controlling your own playoff destiny"

I have 8 managed leagues. Here is how they shake out.

10 tm home redraft league - Currently 8-4 and in 2nd, tied with 2 other teams. I have a 20 point lead on the tiebreaker. Hoping to secure bye.

8 tm home redraft league - Currently 8-4 and in 3rd, tied with 1 other team. I am behind 2nd by 25 points, which is important for both regular season high scorer and bye purposes. I have more points than 9-3 first, although they aren't far behind. The good news is 1/2 play each other this week, so hopefully that goes my way.

12 tm 2p2 SF redraft league - I am not going to make the playoffs haha. Injuries plus underperformance have sunk me. Drafted Chase, Kupp, Danny Dimes, Mike Williams, Waller, Dotson, etc. Made some mistakes looking back. I.e. Waller > Hock, thinking Dimes would make a leap, etc. Kupp was also drafted before his reinjury, so when I took him, I expected him to be ready week 1.

10 tm dynasty league - Currently 10-2 and in 2nd place. Should have the bye locked up, as third place is 8-4 and I have more than 100 points more scored.

10 tm dynasty league - Currently 8-4 and in 3rd place, tied with 1 other team. 70 points behind in that tiebreaker, so need some things to go my way to get the bye. The good news is I have more points than the 9-3 team. So I have paths to the bye.

12 tm dynasty league - Currently 6-6 and in 8th place. This league is very even at the top with one 9-3 team and five 8-4 teams. I'm basically out of the playoffs and looking towards the rookie draft. Would have the 1.04 if things ended today, but I'm afraid my team is just good enough for me to end up with the 1.05 or 1.06.

12 tm dynasty league - Currently 7-5 and in 4th place. This league has a wide range outcome, as there are 4 teams at 6-6. Will likely have the 1.06 if I miss the playoffs, though, so hoping to get in and see what happens. But there are 2 teams way better than the rest.

12 tm dynasty league - Currently 2-10 and my only goal is to push my draft pick as high as possible. 1.03 right now without much chance of getting higher. I just hope I don't fall to the 1.04 or 1.05. I have four first round picks next year, at least.

For best ball, it's been a mixed bag. This was my first season giving best ball a shot. I've definitely learned a lot and look forward to applying it to drafts next year. Currently advancing 18% of the teams I drafted, so basically right at expectation of 16.67%. Of the 9 BBM4 teams I drafted, I am currently advancing 2, with the chances to advance anywhere from 0 to 4 teams. Would be happy with 2.

Outlook for me:

- 8 team redraft, 3/8, 4th highest points, playoffs look like a good shot
- 12 team redraft, 8/12, highest points, missed playoffs
- 12 team redraft, 3/12, 8th highest points, playoffs look a lock but getting bye will be tough
- 12 team redraft, 7/12, 6th highest points, control own destiny at least
- 10 team dynasty, 8/10, 7th highest points, at least I'll get younger at QB next season

This Jonathon Taylor news looks ominous

Fitting death blow to my season - out of my first 10 picks let's see who is left:

3rd Boom or Bust Ridley
6th Smaller half of a timeshare Montgomery
8th McDaniel cant wait to replace him Mostert

#sad

- 10 team redraft auction, 3-9 10th, absolutely miserable squad I assembled highlighted by losing Chubb week 2
- 12 team redraft, 6-6 5th, middle of the pack in points for/against, probably need some luck to keep my playoff spot
- 12 team redraft, 6-6 6th, 3rd points for/3rd points against, control own destiny but I really like the team

Pretty miserable fantasy season overall when I lay it out like that. Best hope is for sure the third team.

I'm in 1 high stakes league, got rid of everything else this season, 2nd out of 12 currently

herbert
JT, RWhite, Jwarren,connor
Diggs,lamb,Collins,Higgins, palmer
Laporta,Kincaid

need JT to be back for playoffs

They say "hopeful" 2-3 weeks, so hopefully you secure that bye. No idea why they'd bother playing him at that point, though. But I guess, theoretically, the Colts could still be in playoff contention. They'd be in if the playoff started today, even though they'd be drawing dead.

Just start fresh next year with AR.

Yeah need the colts to win while he's out, next three games @ten @cin home vs pit are all winnable

Are we emptying the clip on Zach moss even if we are deep at RB?

I have etienne, pollard, barkley, charbonnet, j ford, allgeier, spears - I am dropping one of those last 2 guys for a TE and the other potentially for moss.

Moss can’t be available in too many leagues. I’m in 8 leagues and he hasn’t been available for most of the season

Moss was available in one of my two leagues. I tried to implore person in 7th with 100 faab to bid but didn’t. I knew my 12 faab wasn’t going to do it, but I was actually second to the 2nd seed pushing all in 52 as I expected. I’m regretting wasting 48 faab on B Cooks and Osborn now.

Yes, I’d empty the clip. No guarantee JT returns this year, and Moss was great while JT was out.

Allgeier and Spears easy drops for Moss and a bye week TE.

The only league where he was available for me is an 8 man league where each team rosters 13 + 1 IR. Guy was a little too active on the wire. Moss was dropped at 3 pm est this past Sunday for Roschon before we knew JT had an injury.

I was able to get him with the 5th priority, to let you know the sharpness of the league haha.

Yes, keeping him away from other playoff teams just as important as having him

Following up on my 8 man league. I ended up dropping Amari for Moss and Addison for Rice. Feels kind of gross on the surface, but I think it had to be done. Amari/Addison are just not the same without Deshaun and Kirk, and especially Addison with JJ coming back in week 14. No way Dobbs/Hall/Mullens are going to be able to support all 3 of Addision, JJ, and Hock.

Lamar
Mondre, Mostert, Moss, Monty, Breece, Swift
Reek, Tank, G Wilson, Reed, Rice
McBride

I can only start 3 RBs, but I like having options to simply play matchups. QB/2RB/3WR/TE/Flex

However, a problem is that I'm also going to need a QB this week. I'm not really sure what to do about it haha. Thinking Breece or Reed, and leaning Breece. That offense looked god awful against Miami. I also won't want to start both Breece and Wilson in any given week at this point. ****ing 8 man. Trevor and Kyler are on the wire, so probably grabbing one of them.
