a helluva battle for the top bracket

4 byes and sudden death (is there any other kind?)

congrats Deviants

9 out of 12 teams over .500 is pretty amazing.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Wow, just made the cut, considering my match-ups, was quite a feat.

4 byes and sudden death (is there any other kind?)

I've been sudden death for the last month. Still alive, but I need help to get in.

[Al B. Sure!]

So I'm starting Josh Freeman (vs. the Philadelphia Pigeons) over Matt Ryan... Matt Ryan has been Philip Rivers-esque the last 3 games with only 2 TDs and 6 picks.

It's the playoffs and not the time to get cute and you should dance with the one that brought you but... pretty sure I'm making the right decision, right?

[Ben Kenobi]

Hey, I have to start Peyton Manning. I feel your pain.

I have been quite happy with Freeman as my backup all year and he has had a pretty good fantasy year, and he played well in Brady's bye week against Oakland, which was the main reason I took him (though I got a hard time about taking so long to take my back up QB...everyone else had at least 2 and some already had 3). Having said all that, I'm not likely to start him over Brady...but would I start him over Ryan? Tough call. Let us know how that works out for you!

[-Jrabbit]

I can understand the impulse - especially since TB is playing phone-it-in-Philly.
But Atlanta has Carolina, which is similarly sad. Personally, I would stick with Matt Ryan.

This is the last week of regular season for both Auction and IDP.

Auction has 5 teams going for two spots (more realistically, 4 teams at 7-6 vying for one slot, since Flashtastics would need an epic collapse in total points to fall from 3rd to 5th).
In the more civilized IDP, it's two teams: Jag's Mountain Goats and Cold Wizard's Blind Squirrels are both 8-5 and fighting for the final playoff position.

Good luck to all btw...

[ColdWizard]

I'm 7-6 now. Jared Allen stat corrected Sparrowhawk into belated victory. :headdesk:

I mean....sorry for your loss Coldwizard.

Hey, I have to start Peyton Manning. I feel your pain.

WTF are you talking about? Peyton's been great! 30 TDs now, and he's pulled you back into the playoff hunt.
Lot's of people would love to feel that kind of pain.

[Al B. Sure!]

How has an undrafted rookie from Temple become the Raiders' best WR?

I don't even remember him doing much of anything for Temple. He was a second or third option in Temple's run-based offense.
