Bradshaw or Jacobs...

they seem to be hit/miss every week.

 

[tontod]

Antonio Brown or Maclin?

 

[SunnyD]

So many tough choices. Do I ride Laurent Robinson or do I start Kahlil Bell? Or maybe I play Cedric Benson instead? Is Santana Moss a definite start? Will Victor Cruz draw Revis Island? Am I really stuck starting Kellen Winslow?

And why for the love of Pete did I not start Reggie Wayne?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Actually I didn't start him because I wasn't around to set my lineup on thursday.

 

[weirdichi]

Spiller, Cam, Cruz, and Cinci DEF doing pretty well for me.

ah shit, romo is hurt...

I wouldn't worry much, Megatron will put the game away for you since the chargers can't cover bread with peanut butter.

Crabtree's 41 yard play at the end of the game was big for me. +5 points and then they knocked a few off your defense. Still, with Brees, you might be in range


Edro, looks like you are going to take this week. I just hope it's still close.

woot woot! won my first ff league ever tonight.

needed rodgers to get me at least 21, and that was a wrap. ended up winning by 13.

Yeah, I feel pretty good having a 22 point lead going into this week.
You just never know in Week 17 though...
One poor performance or one breakout is an easy 20 points.
McCoy had 5 points! If he had his normal game, it would almost be tied.

It's anything but a lock at this point.

Congrats...I won my league as well...I was up 1 point going into Monday night...my opponent was done (he had Romo which didn't help) and I had Brees and Colston. Even though I was pretty sure I would win, I wasn't celebrating until the game ended.

In Week 1, I was up by 73 points which I was sure was lock to win, but my opponent had Brady who got 75 points points and I ended up losing...

That must be some weird scoring. How can a QB get 75 points?

Guess it is a bit different in our league...(it was a yahoo league)

Passing Yards
20 yards per point
5 points at 300 yards
10 points at 400 yards
15 points at 450 yards
Passing Touchdowns 6 points

Brady had 517 yards and 4 TD's (also had one sack and one INT)....

we also had similar bonuses for WR and RB's:

10 yards per point
5 points at 150 yards
10 points at 200 yards
15 points at 250 yards

 

[edro]

In our league he got 29.7. (no bonuses, 4 for TD)

 

[goobernoodles]

Well, I got blown out 140-104 in the championship. Oh well. 2nd place with my first fantasy football team ever isn't too bad.

Anyone know of a week 17 only league? lol

 

[edro]

No, but there are plenty of playoffs only leagues and pick'ems.

Congrats. My opponent actually had Brees and Colston heading into Monday night as well, but I had Ryan, Sproles, and a 56-point lead, so I ended up winning out. Definitely wasn't expecting that; all thanks go to the mighty C.J. Spiller!

 

[BrokenVisage]

lol I just saw that the guy I tied in the semi-finals of my one league tied the guy he played in the consolation game last weekend as well, and lost both games because of rank tie-breakers.

 

[Connoisseur]

Got an interesting offer from a buddy in a keeper league. I've got first pick next season and i'm probably keeping AP and Jordy Nelson/Maclin. He's keeping Ray Rice and Arian Foster but has to give up brees. He wants to pick up Brees again next season so he's offering to give me his 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks for my 1st pick. Very tempting offer...
