The two pieces of advice I’ve ever listened to from this thread in regards to my dynasty league were to trade Kelce for a first a few years ago, and to trade Jonathan Taylor for Kittle this past offseason.

I probably would have won 4 straight titles if I did not do these things.

Same. Guy also has Devante Adams and Aaron Rodgers. At least I have Adams in a different league, which is the league where I galaxy brained myself into benching Hock for Arnold.

I was using Buffalo's K to hedge against bad weeks from Allen. That strategy worked right up until today, where it failed spectacularly.

Well, in Whoville they say - that his tiny hands grew three sizes that day.

I'm on track to lose to the worst team in the league by scoring less than his whopping 69 points in a 0.5 PPR league.

The QB/K handcuff! Over a decade ago, I ran the numbers, and there is a very slight negative correlation between the two. You were doing it right.

Ok I'm up a bit (10 points or so) going against Brady tomorrow. Do I want Tampa's kicker or New York's?

Tampa’s, but Kickers are pretty loving random so you might be better off flipping a coin so you’re not as mad at yourself when you lose.

Can’t go wrong with a kicker in a Jason Garrett run offense.

Is there a reason all the unrostered players for tomorrow’s game are on waivers instead of free agency in my MFL league? My opponent has Gronk and I’m trying to pick up Brate to block him in case Gronk doesn’t play, but Brate (and all Giants and Bucs players who are unrostered) are on waivers.

Herbert throwing that game winning TD to Mike Williams somehow put me ahead of the person playing Taylor this week, by a whole .14 points. Then the kneeldowns to end the game happened.



My bad luck this year has been loving absurd, this is the fifth time I have put up a top 3 score in the league and lost. I'm second in points for and dead last in the standings and have the most points against by nearly 200.

Huh, I never heard of that strategy.

I just kind of wound up with the same team's D and K and they were both doing great. Lost by 8 points, so if they had both scored a mere 2 points, I would have won.

Whelp I think that's the season for me. Though going up against Taylor made it so I don't have to second guest any decisions I made, it was literally impossible to win this week for me.

I was expecting to lose this week with 3 of my best players on BYE but I'm still disappointed because I lost against the last place team who left Patterson in his lineup.

None of those unfortunately but we do have a matchup where the guy who has Taylor just had a newborn on Saturday and didn’t take Lamar out of his lineup.

He is in a very real position to win against the guy who tried to get us all to snatch up waiver QB’s once he found out Lamar was out, depending on how well Godwin and Brady do tonight.

I could go either way because I want the catharsis of seeing the guy win without a QB against someone who tried to thwart him, but I also want him to lose and not reach the playoffs because he has made some absolutely one-sides trades with people and now has Taylor, CMC, and Zeke (and Henry on IR) so he’s basically unstoppable if he makes the playoffs.

I mean, asking other teams to pick up waiver QB’s so his opponent can’t get them is straight up collusion (AKA Cheating) so gently caress that guy and he should get an L automatically.

Thanks to Big Ben airing it out (!) in the 4th I managed to squeak by the worst team in the league by 6 points. That guy ended up trading for Scary Terry today, so I thanked him for not doing that a few days ago.

I’m up by 40 points with his Brady, Evans, and Gronk to play tonight (0.5ppr).

The projection has me winning by 0.46 but I could really use a game time decision to make Gronk inactive :tinfoil:

I’m also a Giants fan so it would be really nice if Brady had a bad game.

Don't worry I need a huge game from Evans in a league so he'll get like 1 target

Tanking in my dynasty league and if Godwin doesn't get 17 points (ppr) I'll be 6-5.

I swear this cursed team just refuses to be anything but middle-of-the-pack.

Edit: Meanwhile my other Sleeper team is about to go 6-5 despite being 2nd in PF. Fantasy Football everyone!
