Somehow my team keeps playing. Michael Thomas having a huge week out of nowhere, usually when you have two players with 30 points and one over 40 you're doing pretty well.

In my other league I started both McCaffrey and Will Fuller lol

Matt Stafford bye week :(

I probably shoulda picked up a different QB though rather than starting Mayfield. Whatever I lost by so much it wouldn't have mattered anyway.

Looking for a WR if someone wants to trade for a RB. Make me a reasonable offer.

I remember one year in the 1990s I tried several fantasy sports and I ended up in a hockey league so loving deep that you had like 8 of each position and 3 goalies. It was a nightmare of checking for healthy scratches and learning who the third-line wingers were for teams like the Canucks.

I wonder what the football equivalent is. 3 QBs, 5 RBs, 10 WRs, 4 TEs, 4 flex, 2 defenses and 3 kickers?

would definitely be an Individual Defensive Player league.

I'm sure there's a way to score punters.

My first league was with my college roommate, just the two of us, and for some reason, we played with individual defensive players.

Even just head-to-head, it was a loving chore because of the defenders.

I got jumped this week, as I thought my team is not quite as strong as it seemed at times. Definitely hurt by Kerryon Johnson getting injured right away but also left about 30 points on the bench, even if I had put them in I don't think it would've been enough against Rodgers' 6 touchdown day

I need someone's kicker to lose them 3 pts, so I think that means I need more than one fake fg to result in an interception.

Honestly you're lucky Darren Fells even got you close enough that this unlikely scenario is technically possible.

Probably the most nailbiting finish I've had so far. I was twelve behind with very little chance to win (seemingly), I needed at least 12.5 points from the Pittsburgh defense. After watching the first part of the game I started playing video games, Miami was up 14 and rolling and it was not looking good for me at all. This morning I check it though and it looks like after that they forced another interception, two fumbles and four sacks to give me JUST enough to win by one point

Better to be lucky than good

Things got a little dicey there with that Gallup TD, but I pulled through in the end for my 4th win in a row!

ETA: Moved from 7th to 5th! Playoff bound if I can keep winning!

Matt Stafford's a late scratch and my backup was on a bye so I have to play Daniel Jones :(

I can only hope the Jets suck so much rear end that he has a great game.
