Seeking6 Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 Congrats to those advancing to finals in our league. Barring a late surge I sadly won't be one of them. Needed a negative covid test and one bad move by me. Always a silver lining though...won my largest $ league today already and advancing in three more next weekend. Thanks to the guys for setting up and will always play as long as I'm able. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 The guy I beat last week only score 74. Today he got 110 from just 3 players. All about timing in fantasy for sure 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't apologize for winning ever....but you hate it when it's bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am due 3 straight year in finals lost last year by 1 point and the year before had it wrapped up until the Chiefs got a pick 6 to beat me by 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 What a nice surprise. Just got a congrats from the commissioner for winning the league. Apparently just a 1 week championship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not want to face you in the playoffs. I was kicking myself for leaving a couple guys on the bench but in the end...your guys absolutely went nuts...and I wouldn't beat you no matter what. The Patriots failed me....and yes...I knew with Baltimore's injuries and covid issues they were starting the bell boy at the hotel in their secondary I was in trouble. Just hoped Chase would have the big day (who I have in another league) but didn't happen. Good luck next week...you've had a very impressive run and honestly had the best team the last 3 months of the season. You deserve it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) I really hope next year we increase the penalty to multiple turnovers (mostly effects only qb....like first is -2, second -4, third -8, and fourth -16. To face Baker Mayfield who throws 4 ints and have him score basically the same points as Tom Brady and a couple points from Carson Wentz is rediculous. Guys that played well but didn't have huge TD/YD days. Don't get me wrong....those guys don't deserve more points...but for a guy to throw 4 int they shouldn't be able to score medium level points. I had that happen against Ryan Tannenhill earlier and the year and took an L as well. Just a little rant after taking a L in all my leagues but 1. Oh well...what should I expect with most of the rosters I had left. Too bad Kelce was out of that score fest against the Steelers....what could have been lol.

Seeking6 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Would love to get a feel for everyone's other leagues. First glance in all of my leagues is that there were some bad beats. I benefitted from a couple and was hurt in a couple. No Kelce, Tyreek has 2 points....Allen with bad day given matchup, Kittle on Thursday...and of course Covid implications. Love fantasy football but the finality of it can come quick. Hope everyone either won their leagues yesterday or advanced to title next week...and congrats to those in our league here who advanced! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total QB pts for Dallas for my opponent. 38 vs 1. I'm down 35 heading into next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm down 35 heading into next week. Yep. Hill was a surprise downer for sure. I lost one league yesterday by 12.36 points. No Kelce and Hill did his nothing. One league I won in my opponent never scored less than 130+ all week and put up 92.48 this week. He was down Dalvin, Cooks...and had Sanders, Kittle, Allen all play poorly. Won't apologize for a title but sometimes winning one feels a little odd. Definitely going to cost me a few rounds. Speaking of rounds. If anyone is in a keeper league it might make sense to add Michael Thomas to your roster this week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 I have 4 leagues....lost 3 semi-finals and won 1 (which only by miracle should I lose the finals...but weirder stuff has happened). Funny enough I faced JT in all 4 (I suppose it isn't funny because if you had him you probably made the playoffs). Brady having a down week and playing Miles Sanders/James Robinson over Sony Michel in my flexes killed me and the combo of Allen and Higgins was too much to overcome in those leagues. Over came a lot in my two yahoo leagues losing Henry and CMC(2x) on top of Hopkins to make the playoffs but the patchwork team just didn't have enough juice. I had some very solid scores with waiver guys...several 15-25 pt performances but man my opponents just had monster days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to handcuff most of my key players and this week stated 4 backups to my main guys that were out. Of my main lineup the only guys I started the past 2 weeks were Herbert, and Justin Tucker. Everyone else was a waiver wire pickup 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 I'll say this...you play your studs in the playoffs. Guys that have struggled the past few weeks mostly came up big in the playoffs. Thinking of guys that you might have sat like AJ Brown, Zeke, Dak, Mahomes, Higgins bounced back, Pitts, D Harris, D Montgomery etc...of course the right waiver add can make all the difference too...who saw Rex Burkhead, Pringle, and Isaiah Mckenzie coming??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just didn't have a break out performer....good enough most weeks...not good enough today. Honestly I had no business in the playoffs in the HSN league...just grinded back ups all year.

Hoosier51 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 The biggest thing helping me possibly win this week and winning last week is surprisingly bad games by Brady and Stafford. Also the low usage of Tyreek Hill yesterday. I just need the Dolphins defense not to get 52 points and i will win. 😀 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 It was the best of times, it was the worst of times… Wrapped up last place in the HSN league. Playing for the championship in my other league. Won, despite playing Stafford over Dak, and having James Robinson go out with 1 point. Helped that my opponent had Kelsey, Fournette and Godwin on their bench. Good luck to all playing for a championship next week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
