In our league, basically was a must win. So naturally Kamara and Pierce crap the bed and I lose by 10.

In my main league, I had a comfortable lead - thanks to a ton of points Thursday. In fact I thought it'd be an easy W because my opponent still had Chase in his lineup early Sunday morning, so wasn't sure if he was paying attention.
Thennnnnnnn he picks up DeAndre Carter right before that game and inserts him into the lineup and he goes 7-73-1.
Oh he also had that Josh Jacobs guy too.
Bye bye lead.

2 weeks ago I bench Cooper on the road and start Wilson. Cooper goes for 31.3 and Wilson goes for 3.2 This week I bench Wilson and start Cooper on the road. Cooper goes for 8 and Wilson goes for 24.2
Awesome

Watson looked shaky which is expected after being off for so long. I think it's going to take a few games for him to get up to speed so I can see Cooper's numbers hurting during that time. They've got the Bengals next week who looked good against the Chiefs but after that it's the Ravens and Saints so hopefully he's in a groove by then.

I had a good week in our league..now War's team may look shaky. But I got half my team on Bye next week..so it's not looking too good to get a run going. Just trying to get in the playoffs in our league.
Destroying it in my $$ league

Next week is the last week in our league. Lot of teams play one another and it's not much separation right now so it's hard to find out positioning yet.

Apparently I should have started Fournette over Kamara because that totally makes sense. The starting RB over the supposedly backup RB coming off injury.

I will say, it's a little bullshit having divisions in Scout FF league. Vars and I play this week and if I beat him, we'll tie for best record in the league but one of us won't get a bye because we are in the same division.

I'm only half serious about it, but it's unfortunate that one you jabronis in the Knicks division is gonna get a bye
....he says before getting eliminated by one of those teams next week in the playoffs.

Me losing to Shaqfu a couple weeks ago when I was on a run will likely cost me.
make a few changes next year, maybe 2 flexes too..something to spice it up
I'll see what Commissioner EE has in mind

Probably just best to eliminate the divisions. This is why I was perplexed to what's the point of division record because it seems like points trump that during the regular season for rankings. But yeah it does kinda suck that one of us will get a bye.
I think the way it's currently set up is if I win, I get the bye. If you win Thunder, I think you get the bye because we'll have the same record but you would've beat me twice.
So points would matter during the regular season but have no bearing on being a tiebreaker for the playoffs which is confusing.

And we're slated for a 120-119 barn burner, hopefully it ends up that nail-biting...

We've always had divisions but really it was rooted back when we were on Fanhome/Scout and were split between people on the Knicks board and the Lakers board, so really it was a novelty thing with no actual fantasy football purpose. Can definitely get rid of that next season.
I also personally think we should add a 3rd WR spot and consider changing up the waivers so it's not just free for all. Whether that's your standard rolling waivers or FAAB, we can discuss.
The settings have been defaulted for years now so really I just click renew and call it a day. I agree it's probably time to freshen up the format.

I think I'd prefer 2 flex's but yea, change the waiver, no divisions. Divisions like you said never really mattered..but this year things are tight. Whatever you decide.
May shake up the ole Fantasy basketball too

I'm fine with another WR or Flex and eliminating the divisions. Does fantasy football have something like an IL+ similar to basketball though? I hate the fact that a player can be OUT for weeks on end but since they aren't on IR, you have to just hold onto them for a roster spot.

No. I wish though. I HATE it when a player goes from O to Q and it totally screws up your roster.
We can do 2 flexes also. Really it's same thing as WR3 since most veer to WRs in PPR leagues but being able to put an RB is fine also.

In the prior 5 games, Carr had thrown for 12 TDs 3 INTS and averaged 272 passing yards a game.
So of course playing against a horrible Rams team with no Aaron Donald, Carr craps the bed with 137 passing yards 0 TD 2 INTs.
Having said that, BOY am I glad the Raiders lost that game. Had they won it'd be a 4 game winning streak and as crazy as it sounds, at 6-7 they'd legitimately be in the playoff mix just 1.5 behind the Jets and just needing to leapfrog the floundering Pats/Chargers to get there. The Jets face Buffalo, Miami, JAX, Seattle, Miami in their last 5 games and could honestly go 1-4 to finish 8-9. Just saying the Raiders could have sold being a playoff contender.
They shouldn't. They should be losing/tanking. Stop it. Team went from 2-7 and being in line for the #2 pick to had they won this game they'd be 6-7 and alllllll the way down to pick 16.

Flex: James Conner, Hollywood Brown, DJ Moore, Josh Palmer, Aiyuk
It's pretty much Conner or Hollywood Brown

Conner has a terrible matchup. As does Hollywood given they play the same team. As does DJ Moore. Palmer has Mike Williams coming back. Aiyuk has Purdy as his QB and a bad matchup.
Honestly I'd probably go Hollywood. NE tends to focus on shutting down the WR1. That's Hopkins. So Hollywood has the upside for a good game.

I'd say I lucked out in playing the worst team in our league but I got the highest scorer for the week, so ultimately didn't matter.
The finish is going to be wild.
Top 3 are locked Seems 5 teams will be 7-7 after that, fighting for 3 playoff spots.
I'd say this is an insane amount of parity but I'm in another league where EVERY team is between 8-5 and 5-8 I'm in another league where it's the same thing. 2nd to 8th are between 8-5 to 6-7 entering this week
