    Well unless Pollard goes nuts likely going to lose and fall from the playoffs after a solid 4 game losing streak.

    My roster has largely been trash though so probably deserved.

    Didn’t get into one of my playoffs by scoring a season-low 68 points against the worst team in the league.

    great way to end the season

    Welp I just did the math projections and looked at week15 matchups (last regular season week) and if Achane doesn't pull off a 30+ point miracle tonight, I'm missing the playoffs.

    Made the playoffs in 2 redraft leagues. In my dynasty league, I’m one of 4 teams with a 7-6 record vying for the last 2 playoff seeds. None of us are playing each other, and all 4 teams matchups will be decided on MNF (I have Tua), going to be fun watching the projections change with each score. Needing some long Tua passing TD’s.

    What a crazy season of QB injuries and underperformance

    Ended up finished 3rd w 2nd most points in the league. Redraft league. My draft was horrible (7th pick)

    decent picks Bijan (Rd 1) Hurts (Rd2) Andrews (rd 3) :tebow:

    Picks 4-9 were Diontae, Lockett, Pacheco, Gibson, Moore, Flowers. Besides Pacheco wooooof. :laugh:

    Jaylen Warren was my only good late pick. Although i think I’ve only played him twice.

    Waiver Pick ups of Puka and Tank were huge for me. As was getting Gibbs for Dobbs and Flowers in a trade.

    Guy in my league that gave up after week three and hadn’t updated his roster since randomly decided this was the week, at 1-12, to update while facing me and I’m on the verge of not making the playoffs. I know someone in our league convinced him to do it but no one is owning up to it and I am both laughing and furious.

    I’m going to finish 7th and just outside the playoffs in one league, and 2nd with most points in the other. Hoping Dak, Ceedee, CMC, Achane, and Montgomery/Ettienne can bring it home.

    In playoffs but would like to maintain top seed. I'm 1 of 2 teams at 9-4. 4 teams at 8-5.

    Teams 2, 4 and 5 are looking like Ls this week.

    I've got Jason Sanders tonight vs Hill. I'm up by 13.08 currently.

    Will be puckered tight.

    I’m currently tied for my division lead in record for what would be the 2 seed (other division will have the 1 & 3 seeds by at least 1 game, though I’ve scored more than both of them) but I am down 18.62 points for the season tiebreaker. So I’m currently out of the bye and sitting at the 4 seed. I can end up either the 2, 4, or 5 seed based on tonight’s results, win or lose.

    In my match up this week, I’m currently up 119.44 to 88.50. I have DHop left and he has Love, Dillon, and the Packers D (PPR). If I hold on to win (fingers crossed), I will be the 2 seed and get the bye so long as Tyreek and the Miami D score 22.2 combined points for the current 5 seed, as that would give him the win over the guy I’m tied with and give me a one game lead in the division. If Tyreek and the Miami D score 22.1 or less, then I need DHop to score 29.1 points and a win to hop over the guy in points for the tiebreaker. I can also still be the 2 if I lose my match up, so long as Tyreek and the Miami D score 22.2 or more and DHop scores 29.1 or more.

    So here’s to hoping for a big night for DHop and Tyreek.

    This week was the first time he put up a nice score since I got him. But without him I’d be screwed w Pacheco going down.

    I almost lost to the 0-13 person in my dynasty league who drafted and traded for picks to build his team for 2 years from now(4 first round picks the next 2 years).
    He didn't even have a qb in and I won by 6 points.

    #3 seed playing #6 team this week. #6 seed gets into playoffs with win. #3 seed is locked in to 3 seed and can't get 1 or 2.

    #7 seed playing some random team. He needs to win and needs #3 seed to win to get in.

    The #3 seed throws the matchup (favored to win) because he would rather play the #6 seed instead of #7 seed next week?

    Thoughts on this? The league seems to be 50/50 on this, and commish making a decision tonight. I'm of the mindset that the strategy should be allowed and don't have a problem with it.

    I don't love throwing a match (which I see as different from something like pulling your kicker when you're up one and your opponent is finished) but it is still strategic.
    I'm generally of the mind that anything short of provable collusion should be allowed

    Unless there was an explicit league rule against it, I would allow it. If enough people have an issue make it a rule for next year. It sucks for the guy at 7.

    This is the kind of move that can really shake up a league. You'll have teams leaving over that bullshit. Set your lineup and play to win.
    If I was commish I guess I'd have to allow it if there wasn't a written rule against it, but I wouldn't invite them back next year.
