No stat corrections please.



If that stands, that's 2 Super Bowls this season, and a "championship" in the consolation bracket to secure the #1 draft pick. Not a bad season at all.

I was down 2.7 and any Detroit TD on their 2nd to last drive would've given his Dallas D a -3 and the win to me. Instead Stafford fumbles on the 3 yard line. :(

Comeback Player of the Year: Jordy Nelson

Biggest disappointment: Todd Gurley

I want to thank Matt Prater for missing his lone field goal attempt last night. I couldn't have won this fake football championship without you.

Week 16 combined with 17. I'm currently up by 43.3 which is nice but in no way secure.

Well, Tate didn't score 50+ points so I won! Thank you DJ for totally being worth the $64 out of 200 auction dollars. Thank you DeMarco Murray for being worth well over the $6 I got you for. Thank you Matt Bryant for being the first kicker I've kept from start to finish. Thank you Jarvis Landry for being the only annoyance on my team. Thanks Russell Wilson for.... picking it up towards the end (minus that 5 ints game)

My opponent has Roethlisberger and Bell - both projected to have 0 points. Is it confirmed they aren't playing? I need to pillage the waivers and take up all the good options if that's the case (I don't think he's aware just yet)

edit: nm he has Cousins as his backup. Time to rollout Crowder AND DJax (assuming his jaw is ok) to offset any scoring!

I've had a bunch of these and they are the worst. Lose in the semis and then your team outscores either finalist by like 40 the next week. Goondolences.

This happened to me in the goon all-IDP league. I was one of the top 1-2 in points for all season long, then my team totally poo poo the bed and gave me a first round playoff exit. I set the highest score among all teams in the subsequent rounds so I totally could have won it all had I made it through that first round :smith:

Just a PSA, this all defense league was a ton of fun and I recommend it to anyone looking for some extra fantasy shenanigans next year.

I too lost on Staffords fumble. I was down by the slimmest of margins and this goofy gently caress fumbles it.

gently caress you Detroit. gently caress you Zach Zenner. gently caress you Matt Stafford. Un loving believable that Dez god drat Bryant can throw a TD LEFT HANDED while you suck the biggest balls possible and can't throw one at all.

Lesson learned. Don't gently caress around with medicore QBs. I'm totally drafting a guy that can throw touchdowns instead of some funslinger that doesnt funsling anymore.

If I had played DJax over Amari "not good" Cooper I would've won. If I had played Carson "2015 was a mirage" Palmer IN SEATTLE I would've won.

poo poo I forgot to pick up DeAngelo Williams since my opponent has Bell. He picked up him this morning. For some reason I thought Toussaint was the handcuff. Blargh.

edit: Also is there a chance of Brees sitting? As far as I know they are knocked out of the playoffs but he's still projected to play. Why would ESPN project him as playing for nothing?

No, you got burned by Brock Osweiler who is so lovely that he could even make DeAndre Hopkins look bad.

Next year I am definitely buying low on Hopkins, Robinson, and Lamar Miller.

It was an early week this season when I finally watched the Texans and noticed that Osweiler was giving away every single shotgun snap by dropping his hand before he hiked the ball. That moment I started firing off trade offers to whoever would listen and no one would bite or give me something better back (I ended up shooting down a LeSean McCoy offer, go figure.)

I'm definitely going after Hopkins again next year though. All you have to do is throw the ball at him and he produces, plus he still got an insane amount of targets this year.

Lamar Miller, Allen Robinson and DeAndre Hopkins are gonna be great value next year.

My favorite part of the 0 RB draft strategy was when my 0 ppr league decided to implement it as a whole. Lol.

Looks like OBJ will either not play or get lower reps, so I need a replacement. I have:

Edelman - He's likely in the same position
Snead
D. Jackson
A. Thielen - I'm looking at him the hardest because of his performance last week. I know he likely won't duplicate it but it'd be tough to not have him in.
