      Lynch in a half of actual play matched Shayne Graham.

      Titans were a last minute pickup for me. Phew. I was going to start the Panthers but had a gut feeling that Rivers wouldn't be as bad as Sanchez and I was just barely right but that margin was enough for the win.

      • Well, I've won 5 of 7 in my surge. One more and I'll have a respectable 9-7 season. I was 3-5 at the halfway point.

        • I picked up the Oakland D Sunday morning in Auction League.
          If I had stuck with the Bears (20 pts vs the Raiders' 50), I would have lost.

          • Into the finals for both leagues. And unsurprisingly, the road to the championship goes through Koya, -Jrabbit, Zopper, and Berz.

            Some things in the world are kind of predictable.

            • My opponent's team in the championship:

              RG3
              Frank Gore
              CJ Spiller
              Calvin Johnson
              Mike Wallace
              Steve Smith
              Tony Gonzalez
              Patriots D/ST
              Janikowski


              My likely lineup:
              Matt Ryan
              Marshawn Lynch
              Doug Martin
              Brandon Marshall
              Roddy White
              Cecil Shorts
              Greg Olsen/Brandon Myers/Kyle Rudolph (haven't decided yet)
              Free agent D/ST (maybe Redskins against Eagles)
              Shayne Graham


              Should I make an overture to split the winnings and play for pride? I went for the default 60-40 split against his father 2 years ago and won

                  Andy Dalton but RG3 is probably playing. He also has Matt Schaub. The only notable bench player he has is DeAngelo Williams who's not going to unseat his starters. Sucks cause I have a very deep bench with Forte, Leshoure, Moreno, and David Wilson.

                  • Hrm. In my finals, I have two interesting decisions:
                    K-Conor Barth or FA kicker (Gano, Brown (CIN), Shuisham, Hartley). Barth put up a big fat zero last week, but maybe that's luck. Still a good play I think, but is there a safer one?
                    RB - Adrian Peteron, and my choice of Trent Richardson (@DEN) or Stevan Ridley (@JAC). @JAC is obviously the far better matchup, but, Trent Richardson... and Knowshon Moreno is hanging about also, in case that's worth anything. It's not a PPR league (just yardage and TDs).

                    • Eh... kickers.

                      and Ridley as your RB2.

                          • Yeah, but Kicking is hard to predict on a week to week basis. I tend to want kickers that are on good offensive teams as they will generally have the most scoring chances. With that in mind, I'd go Hartley.

                              Do not listen to this man.

                              It's the fantasy championship. You go with the sure thing and Trent Richardson is about as sure as they come. He's an unglamorous plodder but at least he's not a fumbling HB playing for Bill Belichick.


                              Actually, to be honest, I'd probably go with Moreno. Definitely not Ridley, though. He's one fumble away from giving you a goose egg.

                              • I agree with...err Albie.

                                I made the mistake of looking at the projected and the match-ups instead of going with my heart and the studs, and lost!
