3 out of 4 playoffs. Can't complain. Only one probably has a real shot, but hell, who knows.

Combined 29-10 record, two #1 seeds and a #2, #1 in PF for all three. So hyped for three semifinal losses

13 leagues?!? I'm #1 or 2 in points for in the only 2 leagues I care about (right now.) The third is a dynasty that I took over a garbage team. We'll see how fast I can turn it around (if I can.)

I'm only in one real league, but I stomped my way to #1 seed with a 10-2 record. One of those losses is by 1pt. Playoffs started last week, but we do two-week matches so I'm going in to the second half of semifinals this week with a 19 point lead. I think the #2 seed is in the middle of losing in an upset so I may be in the championships with a league newcomer who had the lowest points scored this year. The only other league I'm in is the goon IDP league which has been pretty competitive so I can't wait for the finale. I highly recommend that others join in next season; it started as a bit of a gimmick but it's picked up after a few years and now it's great competition plus a fresh look at fantasy.

So at the advice of the thread I dropped Russel Wilson for Colin Kaepernick last week. I managed to squeak out a 2 point win to keep my playoff hopes alive somehow, even after his poo poo show of a performance. This week is a win and in situation for me. Now the question is: Do I stick with Mariota vs DEN Do I start Kaepernick vs NYJ (I don't think I could bring myself to do this) or do I pick up one of these waiver options? Tyrod Taylor vs PIT Carson Palmer @ MIA Joe Flacco @ NE Alex Smith vs OAK RGIII vs CIN Matt Barkley @ DET Carson Wentz vs WAS Simein, Tannehill, Bradford, Petty, Goff are available as well. I want to run with the hot hand (Mariota), but Denver D makes me ascared.

I have the honor of hoping I can get by with Desean in the slot and either Jstew or Lewis at RB2 but could be worse! I'm just hoping we get AJ back in the coming weeks; I'd probably win two leagues outright with Green playing normally.

Pretty sure Kaep is the right call. Mariota v Denver is going to get you 10-15 points. All those other options suck, so it'd be between them imo. Palmer and Tygod might be good too, but I haven't kept up with how they've been doing lately.

So I'm in the playoffs and my team is as good as I'm going to get it, with the exception of trying to plan for defenses: our playoffs are the next two weeks, which means I just need to look at matchups for 14 and 15, and the three options I'm looking at are thus: Ravens (#3 overall DST, currently on my roster): @NE, Phi Steelers (#16 overall DST, currently on my roster): @Buf, @Cin Falcons (#20 overall DST, on the wire): @LA, SF Obviously the best matchup set there is ATL, but I can't decide if the Ravens are going to continue to be good even against better teams. Obviously I'm not starting them this week, but do I keep them around for the finals against Philly? Or do I drop them and pick up ATL and choose next week between ATL vs SF or Pit @ Cin?

Well, I have to play the guy I JUST beat week 13 in the first round of the playoffs. I'm 2-0 against him this year so surely I'll lose by 1 pt.

I'm sitting at 10-3 and I'm pretty confident in most of my team. My RB core has been pretty drat solid but my WR core has been streaky and I want to see if I can't sure it up a bit as we head into the final stretch. We run 2 RB, 2 WR, and 2 FLEX with .5 PPR. Current Lineup: QB: Matt Ryan, Marcus Mariota RB: Ezekiel Elliot, Melvin Gordon, LeGarrette Blount, Jay Ajayi, Lamar Miller, Carlos Hyde WR: Michael Crabtree, Davante Adams, Kelvin Benjamin TE: Jimmy Graham K: Dan Bailey Def: Chiefs Best available WRs out there over the last 4 weeks: - Ted Ginn (don't like doubling up teammates, but he's been hotter than Benjamin lately) - Tyler Lockett - Malcolm Mitchell - Rishard Mathews - DaVante Parker - Kenny Britt I'm thinking I could drop Mariota or Hyde to pick up another WR? I picked up Mariota for Ryan's bye and kept him around since he was doing well but I don't need 2 QBs.

Someone dropped Stafford in my money league. I put in a bid (auction waiver) but will probably come in low. Is there something I'm missing with him? At least a better option than Russell Wilson

At least a better option than Russell Wilson He's pretty middle of the pack and we're at a point in the season where if you're rostering two QBs it's because you're planning on playing matchups, and he doesn't really have any good ones (unless you're in a league that plays the championship in week 17 for some odd reason). Howevah, if your other option is Russ then yeah he's an upgrade.

Just found out we're going to week 17 in our league. Granted it was because our commish overlooked it (first year I'm not commish - he took over for me after people didn't like how i was doing things) even though I pointed it out to him weeks ago. We were in a 16 team league and 10 teams went to the playoff. That went down to a 10 team league but he never changed the playoff settings. We decided to do it just for fun and Xorts anyway. Everyone makes it in and we have first week byes. We won't do it again next year but I expect some hilarious tears at the end of week 17 from somebody.

In my main league, I was a major longshot for playoffs. I needed to win, outscore the teams I was tied with, and have the 2 ahead of me lose. Going into last night, I just needed the 1 team ahead of me to lose, but they were down 30 points and facing TY Hilton while they had Luck. I ended up making after the guy I needed to win came back: Question about defenses: I have Washington (vs PHI) right now. On waivers: Det (vs CHI) Ten (vs Den) Atl (vs LA) Any of these worth a start over Washington? I was thinking LA. THE MACHO MAN fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Dec 6, 2016 |

The scary part is I agree with you, but starting a QB that played almost a full game while completing only 1 pass for 4 yards is terrifying to me.

Not sure how the Bills got dropped but my 12th position waiver spot means I'm not getting my hopes up for either of them really. I really just need a week 15 play because if I make it to 16 its the Chargers against the Browns. Perhaps the RG3 Browns! Santheb fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Dec 6, 2016 |

I'm gonna dump Fedorawicz for Green, but then again he'll just be backing up Reed for me. FWIW the coashes did say he was going to continue to be increasingly involved in the Steelers offense. I wouldn't take him over one of the "established TE1s" though. Inspector_666 fucked around with this message at 23:34 on Dec 6, 2016 |

Really wish I had traded for Kelce instead of Eifert when I had the chance for either of them. I opted for Eifert because of the AJ Green injury, hoping he'd fill that void in targets. Oh well.
