I had the best performing player (Burrow - 39.14 pts) and the worst performing player (Amari Cooper...forgot to bench him - 0 pts) this week. That's my team to a tee, highs and lows mixed in liberally Still, enough to get me another win and sitting with a 5-4 record
Closest H2H I have been involved in this season! Don't think it'll push me any closer to the Play-Offs but I will take the W
WaddleUpThatHill have made a trade with MotorBoaters, trading Baker Mayfield to @ToddPhin for Sam Darnold and his 2025 3rd round pick. Pleasure doing business with you, Todd
I think that as long as Goff doesn't turn the ball over 4+ times tonight, I should have this week in the bag. Fingers crossed. I finally got lucky with my opponent having a bad week.
Looks like I'm moving up to 9th in the standings. About as much chance at the playoffs as the Dolphins themselves, lol.
Decided to bench Goff for Stroud this week. Goff would have gotten me 42 points while Stroud has less than 5. I still would have lost, but it would have felt better. In fact, pending the second half, Stroud is only my 4th best QB this week.
*Disclaimer...top of my division, and only 3rd best record overall, but hey, I'll take it for as long it lasts
Pretty good going for a team that I had thought was a lock for a top 3 pick in next year's draft before you took it over! Well done
You and me both! Even had 2 players score 0 points this weekend (Gesicki continuing to be almost as useful as he was when he was a Dolphin...) and still got the win. Joe Burrow lighting it up recently has definitely helped a tonne, as has Montgomery continuing to score TD's almost every week, and Jennings getting more targets this season with Aiyuk and other 49ers injured.
I swear to the Football Gods that if I was still capable of producing a child (had to get fixed, baby girl almost killed mama, not takin no chances already more than blessed. Get me drunk sometime I'll tell you about the adventure that was ...) But if I could and happened to have a Son right now. I would Pray he was born on the 26th and I would name him Saquon. Ok we're way to white for that so Barkley. I could sell Barkley. Maybe I can get my Grandkid named Barkley one a these days. But since none of those things are happening soon, if I win this off of his year this year, that's my next dog's name at a minimum. Might have to get a pup just for it.
I think my luck might have run out and the 7 game winning streak is coming to an end, unless Courtland Sutton has a big game tonight (still possible...). At least I'm in the playoffs, so would rather a loss here then start the winning streak again! I did consider benching Kittle this week with the weather forecast in Buffalo and Purdy's struggles but, with Gesicki and Gray as the alternatives, I stuck with him. Of course, they both had decent weeks, so a win would have been more likely if I'd put one of them in.
As predicted, Sutton didn't score me enough to sneak the win...but benching Kittle for Gesicki or Gray would have, lol.
In a year in supposed to be rebuilding I'm in a playoff slot thanks to my rookies. Draft class looks good so far with Nabers McConkey Tracy and Bucky...hopefully they keep their prominent roles moving forward. Also a bad time for Henry to have a bye week when I need a win week 14 to stay in a playoff spot.
In a year where I thought I finally had a team to win, I'm in 10th place. We balance each other out. And now even though its Week 14, I have five starters plus both of my defenses on the bye this week. Its like the schedule was designed specifically to screw over my team if I was in the playoff hunt, lol.
you hit a cycle(4/4). It was a toss up between Tracy and Vidal in the 2nd round for me. I definitely wouldve taken him in the 3rd.
