My genius strategy of drafting injured players, and then getting a FA running back who is on the same team as my only other non-injured running back has paid dividends! Also getting a backup TE who's on the same team as my #1 WR.

Soon, Alshon Jeffery and Marlon Mack, soon.

So we will have one 3-0 team, and a crapload of 2-1 and 1-2 teams, huh? Everything's still up for grabs.

Nah, I'm sorry my 1-game lead is insurmountable.

That BLEW DAT pts for doe...

It's been a few years since I played fantasy football, but IIRC the points leader is basically guaranteed to not get the No. 1 playoff spot and not make it past the 2nd playoff round at best.

I like how it won't ever give you a 100% chance to win.

I'm ahead by 39 points, my opponent has no one playing now or playing tomorrow, and my last player is Harrison Butker, the Kansas City kicker.

My odds to win: 99%

I would love to know what happens 1% of the time to make me lose this game.

man I have like, 4 RBs who can put up good numbers on any given night, but 2 of them will randomly suck and none of my WRs are good



so, exactly what I should have expected given my record in college fantasy lol

Marshawn Lynch is out for good and Dalvin Cook has been out forever, so I could use a RB.

Are you desperate enough to take Christian Kirk or Nelson Agholor for one of them?

This is a bad policy since the games are on the weekend. Just pitch me one of your RBs for whichever you want.

Someone tell me what the 1% chance looks like for Kenyon Barner to score me 120 points on MNF?

Buffalo finally finds their answer at QB and Kenyon throws for 15 TDs and 800 yards.

Since there are 2 teams at the top and I have the head-to-head win, I declare myself No. 1 for the last week I'll be able to do so.

I planned my byes really poorly and I'll be lucky to field a full roster at all this week.

My entire bench was on a bye, so I had to pick up *shiver* Ty Montgomery and Alfred Blue. This is no one's fault but my own, but I still feel like bitching about it.

Ooo exciting finish here.

I think if Alshon Jeffrey holds my 5 point lead vs. my opponent's Golden Tate, I get into the playoffs. Or if Adrian Peterson drags If You Seek A Falcon to a win.

So this is some kind of keeper league or something? I've never done one of those, but my waiver claims on some dudes on the IR went through, so I guess I can ask for the details now.

Ah, OK. I don't think either of my IR pickups (Devonta Freeman and AJ Green) are better than my healthy keeps (Michael Thomas and Marlon Mack or Dalvin Cook), but I guess I've kept the rest of you from getting them.
