I hate it when it lines up that my opponent has guys playing the Saints.

I'm up like 70 but I get to watch Keenan Allen get 4 touchdowns and 200 yards to beat me AND the Saints.

Edit: i apparently hexed Keenan Allen with this post

lol again I was all set to lose but an absolutely insane second half in the Hawks/Vikings game saved my rear end. Seemed like every single touchdown that half either went to DK, Carson or Thielen who are all my guys, not to mention Russ the one throwing most of those. I got to watch my win probability go from below 25% to about 98% in the space of a quarter and a half

Oh, plus my opponent had Dalvin Cook who absolutely looked like he was about to crush both me and the Seahawks until he pulled a hammy early in the second half and went out, at which point the whole game seemed to change.

Still, I'm a little impressed with my guys for winning games for me despite my first round keeper giving me a grand total of like 3 loving points the entire season. I bet big on the Seahawks offense and it's paying off, but actually it's the Seahawks defense that has been the best thing for me. They're so bad they force Russell to do crazy things to win

Did that happen just by certain players having their bye effectively moved to this week and the actual game being later or something?

Welp, Kelce already has 2 TDs in the first half, I think I'm done for.

That was a weird week of fantasy . A bunch of teams didn't even break 100 points and the two highest score totals came from the two teams with only one win

That's funny, because I wasn't playing you but now that I look at it that field goal from Zane Gonzalez actually won the week for me. Even though I still only scored 95 points it was just enough.

Don't worry, my team is pretty fraudulent. I've been lucky enough to have less points scored against me than all but one other team.

My score would have been nearly 200 if I started Jefferson over juju too.

I'm 3-1 since Christian McCaffrey got injured because I have Mike Davis and DJ Moore, but I'm pretty sure when he comes back, the Panthers are going to go back to "CMC touches the ball 80% of the plays" and tank my team.

Nah this coaching staff is different. They'll probably all be on the field or something crazy. McCaffery becomes a legit WR split out or something crazy.

I mean, they've been more effective not running everything through him right? Seems like a win-win to me to treat him like a normal all-star RB instead of sweatily trying to ruin his career by making him gain every offensive yard.

heh, whoever this is pulled the ol' "Get the 2nd most points for the week. Lose to the person with the most points". If they'd started Tennessee's defense off their bench they would have won, but they would have lost if they'd started Washington's defense off their bench.

After starting 4-1 and climbing to #1 the last 4 weeks have been brutal for me in this league. I have the most points against me because lately whenever anyone faces me, all of their dudes have big games.

Hopefully I can still make the playoffs.
