Damn it. Something told me to pick up Montgomery.

Should've trusted my gut.
Montgomery is great. I regret dropping him during that stretch where the Packers seemed determined not to use him.

Of course, Thielen picks this week to get concussed when I used him in my flex spot. The Colts D isn't supposed to be this good. I think the Adrian Peterson circus disrupted the Vikes entire gameplan for this week.
 
Ugh I'm screwed. Only up 20 with my QB and Edelman left to play. My opponent only has 2 people playing right now lmao

Edit: woohoo Dixon and OBJ TD gave me a bit more cushion.
 
that feeling when you start watkins vs browns(supposedly good matchup)

and have brandin cooks on your bench @ cardinals in supposedly a bad matchup

projected to lose by 30 points

see you guys next year

Hill has been impossible to bench since his mid-season breakout, IMO.
Unless you have all three of Antonio Brown, Odell Beckham and Mike Evans, he should be in your lineup every week.
Still gonna be hard to trust him next week, considering he only got one offensive touch today... especially because both Tate and Cooks had good days too.

Also dunno about Lamar Miller, looks like he got banged up again. And it looks like Derrick Henry could have significant upside - I do have Murray as well...

Freeman just destroyed my dreams
He's answering LeSean McCoy for me today quite effectively.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Falcons pull their starters again for the 4th quarter as they did last week.
Hopefully they keep Coleman out there instead of just giving Terron Ward the ball as I've got him in my lineup, too.

I went against both McCoy and freeman :(
 
Man, there's no coming back from that. You have my condolences.

I'm sorry

Funny thing is, I would still have a chance but Adams screws me over again. I can't really say anything about AB or Eifert.

Oh and Derick Henry sitting on my bench taking Murrays TDs, who I started lol.

All hindsight but Adams I could've adjusted. I had picked up Rob Anderson yesterday and considered playing him and didn't realize he played that same night...

Concussions finished me off today. Couldn't recover from Adam Thielen and Tyrell Williams getting laid out.
It's back to the drawing board once again next August.

Down by 9. He has Winston left and I have Dez, Crowder, and Olsen. What are my chances guys? This is for the Sacko...

Went against the Brees/Freeman combo; Down by 51pts coming in Sunday night.

I'm going "guns blazing" with the Zeke,D Martin,Brate, and Jstew on Monday.

I'm up by 5.50 points against my opponent (PPR league).

My opponent has Doug Martin, Cole Beasley, and Dan Bailey.

I have no one remaining.

One quarter left.


Welp.





Edit:

God fucking damnit

Currently down by .08 points. I need Evans to get a few catches this drive, Witten to get some touches when Dallas gets it back, and Des to do nothing....


edit: And of course he overthrows to Evans on a long pass...

edit edit: That Whitten fumble is literally going to cost me on the best season I've ever had.




Maybe I'll get a favorable stat correction.

Evans and Winston disappointed, but based Zeke putting me in a great position to win tomorrow. Was literally .7 away with R Kelley left before that last fucking Winston pick. Just need 2.7 from Kelley, but if there is one team that loves to abandon the run it's the god dam Redskins.

Was down 27 with Bailey and Evans left. Can't complain with Bailey he got 15.

Winston overthrowing to Evans at the end of the game killed my hopes.

Brees and Freeman didn't killed my season, it's the opposing Def that killed me. Niners are shit...expected, but Freeman got three TDs, Come on! AND what happen with the Cards Def? They were once top tier....

3 leagues - heading to 3 finals. :)

I have had a very good year. Here is hoping I can complete the sweep. The main league has me up against Julio Jones and M Gordon, so it will be an interesting week of news following.
 
Lost one for sure(Rodgers, Adams & Gates killed me)

Other two-

1st one ahead by 18 with Captain Kirk to go
2nd one- up by 8 with R Kelley left to my opponents Stewart and Carolina D left. Crossing fingers on this one.

Fuck Amari Cooper. Chose to start him over Ty Montgomery and he screwed me. Hope he and the Raiders fail miserably in the playoffs.

Yeah he sucked! Add Watkins and Hyde to that list too. I need Rob Kelly to have minus .4 pts tonight for me to win.

I should have started Powell and kept Miami D. Fantasy football is dumb! I'll play again next year!

Up 17 in standard scoring. He's got J-Stew and D. Jax, I've got Dustin Hopkins.

I left Jarvis Landry, Dolphins D, and Sterling Shepard on my bench, playing Farrow, Atlanta D, and Tyrell Williams instead, while he played his best line-up outside of defense. I'm going to kick myself hard if I lose.
 
I am down 18 points in the semi-final with only my QB still to play. I have both Cam Newton and Kirk Cousins. 1 point every 25 yards passing, 4 pts for a throwing TD. Who would you play?
 
final tally

lost by 26 points

brandin cooks scored 30 points on my bench and watkins scored 1

oh well-couldn't have predicted that as other than yesterday's game, cooks has scored over 6 points once this season in away games

Jordan Howard was a nice FA/waiver pick up for me. I'm kind of excited for him going into next year seeing as he's a rookie this year. Hopefully his ADP isn't too high (higher than 4-5) as i'd like to draft him next year in maybe around the rounds 5-8. Same goes for Derrick Henry.
 
Started TY Mont/Elliott/McCoy/Miami D in my money league, and am currently nursing a 115 point lead with 3 players on his side playing tonight. Can't believe I had 3 players pull in 150 yards and 1+ TD each....

Yeah, Howard was really solid. Will be looking for him in the future.
