Honestly think I deserve the l more than you do, hosed up big time in sit start and a bunch of my players disappointed. drat that was close and if the 49ers weren't absolutely dominating you'd still have a very good chance but it looks like they took Aiyuk out. The part I find ironic is that I dropped Kenyan Drake due to having way too many RBs, you picked him up and put him in for Najee. So if I hadn't have made that completely random move of dropping him you would've kept Najee in and beaten me like a drum. Sometimes you stumble rear end backwards into the solution I guess

Lol yeah. I had Gus Edwards starting over Najee so when he was out I figured Drake would be a good start and I was so sick of Najee being poo poo all year I didn't want to start him and welp. I guess that's why I am where I am.

This is gonna be a nail biter for me. Instant Keenan and Kelce touchdowns bode ill. Going for my fifth consecutive win, which would be dope, but starting to feel like the well of luck has run dry

You've already had some good luck as Justin Fields got hurt, and he has been carrying the gently caress out of my team these last few games with 30+ point performances.

God Bless Josh Jacobs for taking from under 10% chance to win to favored. I just need Miles Sanders to get under 17 points for the W. ETA: Ah gently caress Sanders has 10 points already, this is gonna be rough. ETA 2: welp fml WampaLord fucked around with this message at 04:01 on Nov 28, 2022 |

OK, going into the last week of regular season play, the final playoff spot is mainly up for grabs between me and whoever owns Baker's Crap Dozen. I started the year going 1-6, including the biggest loss of the year -- over 90 pts to ... Baker's Crap Dozen. They started the year 5-1 and I think led the league at one point? They get to play the guy who hasn't set his lineup all year, except his bye weeks are over and none of the people he had in the last week he checked have started to suck or gotten hurt (TBD on Joe Mixon), so it might not be the advantage you'd think. I get to play Derrick Rolled, who has had a disappointing year. Probably Kyler Murray's fault looking at his roster. My team is hot, but I have jinxed myself by posting about it. Also, I believe we can both win and overtake one of the next teams above us. Edit: Oh and Justin Fields is on the bye, so I have to play Tom Brady at QB.

gently caress it, I'm counting out Touchdown Tom and betting it all on Geno Smith!

Who knows. I'm not sure Kyler has been my issue - really my 2nd through fourth picks all killed me - Kamara, Deebo, and Sutton have all been duds. My best picks came late in the rounds and free agency, but I wasn't able to get any consistency in play/huge boom weeks other than the one time Kamara scored a TD this season.

It's been nice to ride Josh Allen, Josh Jacobs, and Dalvin Cook to a bunch of Ws. I wish my WR situation was better, loving Mike Evans is being criminally underused this season, but even though I didn't claim a bye, I'm confirmed for a playoff spot so nothing to complain about over here. Until week 1 of the playoffs and I get totally stomped because all my guys under perform ![]()

Yeah literally my most reliable players came in the fifth round (Amon-Ra), tenth round (Rhamondre), and waiver wire (Tua, at least until recently). AJ Brown in the third round also hasn't been bad although has had some down weeks. Apart from that Aaron Jones, Mike Williams, and Russel Wilson did very little for me and were all horribly overdrafted This week I'm apparently still evenly favored despite Foster Moreau putting up a big fat zero. If I do lose and Champa Bay wins does anyone know if I will get the bye or not since we'll have equal records at that point? What are tiebreakers based on, previous wins or points scored total or something? side note: The New Guy please replace your defense on bye so this doesn't happen

Last time I went into the playoffs as #1, I had a first round exit. Here's hoping history does NOT repeat itself there (it can repeat itself from the first season though).

I always set my lineups. Just wasn’t worried about Thursday night football this week for obvious reasons

Cool thanks guys. Annoying to have such a down week right before wins and losses are for good, but I'll hope it's just a blip. Good luck in the playoffs everyone!

More insanely bad luck for you, I was pretty sure to lose because of tonight's game, but my opponent's QB Kyler Murray got injured immediately and now I'm like 50-50 to win. However, you're gonna win too and you've got 40 points on me, so I think you wind up with the last playoff spot because of points scored. Hmmmm, also The New Guy is losing and I've got points on him. I think if I win, I am in and he is out? PostNouveau fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Dec 13, 2022 |

Looks like out of the 4 bubble teams vying for 3 spots, The New Guy loses Crazy to have that many spots open the last weekend. Three 7-7 teams in the end

I think you got folks confused - I was your opponent this week. I figured Tyler and Lawrence would be close to eachother and a coin flip. Didn't think I'd have two starts go down near immediately (Wilson and Murray) then Samuel (although he did get some points). Disappointing year for sure of underperformances and injuries. That said- at least I'm not in last place! Or is that decided via the playoffs, not record?

And this year, we have the same situation, so hey, there we go

Wow I thought I was fairly solidly in the playoffs, but I guess 3-4 things had to go the wrong way and they sure did.

![]() ![]() Champa Bay (3) vs DrewBreesMoonCheese (6) Will Champa Bay's RB combo of Josh Jacobs and Dalvin Cook be strong enough to withstand DrewBreesMoonCheese's overwhelming trio of Justin Fields/Travis Kelce/Davante Adams? Will Mike Evans catch anything? And just how many picks will Josh Allen throw? Tune in to find out! Baker's Crap Dozen (5) vs Brady's mouth kisses (4) Will Baker's Crap Dozen WR power combo of Justin Jefferson and Tyreek Hill be able to overcome the might of the Eagles and their quarterback? Will Ja'Marr Chase pop off for a 50 point day? The answers will be discovered this weekend!

I've got another 10-team league that has, I think, a better playoff format. Just 4 teams and two weeks per semi-final with 2 weeks for the final. In our league, we wouldn't have any teams getting in at 7-7 (like me) and we'd have less chance at fluke, one-week bullshit causing someone to get bounced. The downside is it includes Week 18, where some teams might be sitting stars.

Holy poo poo I was so worried Carr was going to hit Adams for a long pass at the end there. I think I barely pulled out the W thanks to that stupid rear end Patriots play preventing overtime

My team falling apart at the absolute worst moment. J Taylor on IR, Damien Pierce on IR, Amon Ra losing touches to Jameson, Tua playing badly. Everyone else sucking rear end except for AJ Brown. Even with all that should be a fun playoff game and according to yahoo we're about even. Not sure I believe that though lol
