Fantasy Football Discussion III

[-Jrabbit]

Sorry, but the I was away from the comp and didn't see this before game time. I'll take a look and see if there's anything I can do before the late games start.

DD -- tough news, man. Hang in there!

[-Jrabbit]

OK, I have used my mighty Commish powers to update the DDD lineup.

-Berrian in at W/R in place of Ladell Betts (Injured Reserve)
-Added Terrell Thomas to roster and inserted him at DB in place of Weddle (out)
-Added Dockett to roster and inserted him at DL in place of Shaun Rodgers (IR)
-Dropped Betts and Rodgers

Note: I was pleased to see that Yahoo let me take Betts and Rodgers out of the lineup even thought their games were well underway. FYI Ben, I didn't put in J.Joseph at DB because that game was in process. So I took the top-scoring available DB from the late-start games.

Edit: Didn't realize this was playoff-intensive when I made the changes. Hope this doesn't screw you, Berz. Feel free to squeal like a stuck pig if it does.

Thanks JR!

I'm going for the most pathetic win of the season award today.

[-Jrabbit]

I dunno, EPW, there have been some epically pathetic games this year -- most of them vs. the Low Wow, natch. Yours is just another one.

Love Wow's lowest score is 71 points; his defense has some serious work to do to get that this week.

In other news, Slowwhand is in serious danger of losing his bye week. In fact, the Magnets could pull in front in total points this week, possibly knocking me out of the top 2 if Slowwy manages to win.

[Ben Kenobi]

Need 20 more points to be clear of Hervin. Going to be a hell of a match.

Ok, looks like I'm down right now by 3.5 points.

Da Boys are up on Forte now. Forte is down by about 3 points or so.

Berz is still up one on DDD, but that one will go down to the wire.

Jag is still down about 5 points too.

So far all the teams fighting for a playoff are in tough matchups.

Looks like Forte gets dropped. 7-6 now. 4 seed is now open.

Deviations is out.

Unlikely. He'd need 15 from Jared Allen and 35 from Ray Rice to catch you.

Slowwy would need to overcome a -16 point projected deficit right now. Peterson outscoring Farve would probably give him the win.

Berz is up by 3 points right now. I'm down by a half point, Jag is down by 5. These three matches will decide who makes it and who goes home.

Berz makes it with a win, or a loss by either Jag or me. I'd say a 87 percent chance he's in.
Forte makes it with a loss by Berz, me or Jag. 85 percent chance that he is in. Snoopy is no longer in charge of his own destiny.
I make it with a win or a loss by Jag. 80 percent chance I am in.
Jag makes it with a win. 40 percent chance he is in. Thanks to Romo, he is in charge of his own destiny.

[EPW]

Unlikely. He'd need 15 from Jared Allen and 35 from Ray Rice to catch you.

It was a reasonble possibility when I made my post. Luckily Miles Austin had a good day, the only offensive player on my team who had one this week.

I can't say I would be sorry to see the Firemen eliminated. I think they are the most potent team after the Magnets.

[Ben Kenobi]

Thank Tony Romo for that.

[Ben Kenobi]

Forte + Twisters make it.

****ing last play of the game cost me. What a way to lose. Dammit.

My only hope now is Greg Jennings.

Congrats Jrabbit. Why on earth did you think this was going to be a blowout? I really don't get that.

[-Jrabbit]

I figured it as a blowout because the Chargers had a cupcake matchup and I had no QB. Also figured on RyGrant vs Balt until this morning, when I learned DeAngelo would be inactive and J.Stewart would get starter carries. Benching Steve Smith (NYG) was another leap of faith. Then I picked up the NO kicker Hartley, this morning. Which was a total gift.

Frankly, everything had to go perfect for me to be in this game, and the way this season has gone, it's the last thing I expected.

I wonder if this is a first -- everyone on offense, including the kicker, scoring 15 or more.

If my team had a QB, we coulda been a contender.

[Ben Kenobi]

Showcase of the best WRs that's for sure

Colston, Ward, Garcon, and Britt all over 10 points for me. Britt had 22 on the bench.

I could have had a 200 point week this week if I put up Britt and Garcon and Sessions.

You actually managed to maximise out your team as well. There was no combination that would have earned you as many points.

[EPW]

You did wish him good luck. I guess it back fired on you.

[SlowwHand]

I got a season's worth of suck this week.
