Nice tag-team effort Kofax, I think we covered it all!
Cheers, and good luck next week, but not too much

I need to get through tonight first! We'll talk about next week tomorrow!

What an embarrassing performance from my team in a big spot. Hopefully they got that out of their system.

Love the recaps and commentary. Enjoy the Thursday games!

Kofax this is what we get for trying to write summaries early. P7 with the Baltimore fueled comeback!
Gives the Thielen/Turtles matchup a whole new meaning next week, and means Redbulls really can play a spoiler role.

Last play of the game on that one. I knew there was a very real chance I was losing that matchup, but the writeup needed to be completed!

There will be a battle for the last bye spot next week, and I think it will still be a battle for first, as if I win, my points for will put me out front!

Actually, if I win, PEng still has a chance to knock you down to third as well due to points scored!

This all just got a whole lot more interesting up top....

[rataylor22]

I mean I was never beating 160 points, but Lamar is fun.

Boy is he! I forgot what our score was, and I had Lamar going in my home league so I was conflicted as to how successful a night I needed him to have. Man there is a glut of 6-6 teams. This should be a wild ride to the playoffs.

Good stuff.

Fantasy football... she's a heartbreaker.
For those following along at home:

Kofax is beating me in our match-up right past the 11oclock Eastern hour.
99.08 (Kofax' Tacklin Turtles) - 98.32 (P7s DeShaunShineBand).
Last possession for the Rams.
Down 45-6.
I mean... the game is over.
But offenses be bein' offenses, trying to come from 39pts down with a buck & half left.
And the Goffer throws an INT with 1:28 to play.

Add 2pts for the BAL defense, owned by me.
Wow... that's a bad beat for Kofax - who had Kyler & Kirk on bye.
99.08 (Kofax' Tacklin Turtles) - 100.32 (P7s DeShaunShineBand).

My best-drafted-team ever now has an outside shot at the #1 seed... or #2 seed.
I wonder what Vegas has for odds of finishing #1.

Right now, my math guesses at #1 seed:
48% That Le'Veon Thielen: This is his Yahoo! win%... with best record alone, win and he's tops.
44% Tacklin Turtles: By projected match-up, 52% is his Yahoo! win%... and he's got the highest points for over me by 30+pts. I'd say 8% gets stolen by my team possibly having a HUGE week.
8% DeShaunShineBand: Needs a WIN + Turtles WIN + Must outscore "winning" Turtles team by 30+pts.


Shout-out to rataylor:
Dude knows how to draft a QB.
Mahomes in 2018
Lamar in 2019

Playoffs essentially START this WEEK (pretty much) for 4 teams:
5-6 and 7-8 pretty much have "play-in" games, as mentioned by Kofax & Eskimo Bro.

Should be fun to track those for:
*5. Here's Johnny (patch-in uber-GM horrorfan)
*6. The Frisky Hobbit (superNFLfan, Russ/aka. The Comish)
*7. Zorro's LongSnappers (GM-ed by Mr. I can't Draft that Sunday, I have Softball)
*8. My Endless Chubb (former Dobber Fantasy Football writer/guru: Bomm Bastic)

Good luck boys!!!

[Bomm Bastic]

Good luck, Z! Should be a good match-up

[Bomm Bastic]

Ugh!

My season is coming to an end.

[Eskimo Brother]

Sad to see the regular season ending, seems like it just started a couple weeks ago! Still a few matchups coming down to tonight, and then we get into the coin flips that are H2H playoffs.

My team got hot at the right time to get a bye, but I feel like I've used up all of my luck.

[Pengwin7]

I'm praying I can pull off a win and limp into a bye week.
Julio seems like he might get shut-down by the Flopcons.
Hooper needs a week to get back up to speed.
And Tevin Coleman has crashed.
Hopefully Rashard Penny steps up tonight... because I feel doomed without an RB2 (Jordan Howard still gimpy) heading into H2H playoffs.
Right now... my RB2 will be Peyton Barber... thank goodness I stashed him a couple weeks ago.

I hear ya. It suddenly got really ugly here.
A surprise Questionable tag on K. Murray had me put him on the bench for Foles against TB, which was being hyped as a good matchup. That turned out great.
McCaffrey had one of his few merely good days (which I really can't complain about).
Now I need PEng to lose while maintaining my 37 point lead (which was cut to 10 by Watson last night).

Regardless of how it turns out, neither of us would be heading into that week 14 matchup with much momentum/confidence!
