Injuries are the killer.  Having lost Chubb and Burrow in 3 different leagues, that was essentially the matter of life or death for me, however I do sit in 1st place in my 12 man keeper league where I've only lost twice. I lost both Chubb and Mike Williams in that league and somehow am 9-2. 

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone whom celebrates today.  Nice little 3 game slate we've got on tap starting here in a bit over an hour.  Maybe not the best games ever, but 3 games during the day on a Thrusday, I'll take it! Smiley

I have no clue why the Lions and Cowboys always play on thanksgiving but at least they are both not shit this year!

I'm going to gamble and play Howell against that brutal cowgirl Defense as I think because its a prime time game the refs will make sure the game is close till the end.

Don't know if this was a literal question but just tradition.  I think Detroit actually always played then cowboys "volunteered" to play as well so long as it's always a home game.  Been that way for 5-6 decades now.  Good luck Howell is hot or miss I'm with you because I need scary Terry to go off in my other league.  JJetas dissapointed me this year Sad

Only four weeks remain on the regular season of our league, time sure flies, currently there are only three teams that are out mathematically from the playoffs, but realistically the three 5-6 teams should be out as well since at best they could get a 9-6 record, and since their PF are all lower than the PF of the teams at the top then they will require for one of the 8-3 teams to lose all their games or to lose at least three and then win the tiebreaker, not very likely if I must say so.

This leaves the two 6-5 teams as the only ones that are legitimately on the hunt, however after taking a look at the remaining games of each team I would think the Bit Bowlers and the Barbarians seem to have the hardest schedule ahead, with a key match taking place this week between the Barbarians and the Moon Coiners, with whoever wins it almost securing their spot to the playoffs, while the losing team will most likely have to battle to the end for the fourth spot with the Bit Bowlers and twEntiwan.

Nice Synopsis man!


I put a few satoshis down on the game last night.  For whatever reason I was feeling the Eagles, even though I think the Chiefs are the better team.  Getting the Eagles at +3 obviously meant I won my bet, only wish I had bet just a little bit more (per usual lol).

Going to be a fun week of games this week being the Thanksgiving Holiday and all.  3 games on Thursday and even 1 on Friday.  I think this may be the first "Black Friday" game the NFL has ever had...but maybe I'm wrong.

That was a nice win ypu must have cringed when ypu saw how open Marquez got open and then brick handed it lol.  I'm of the opinion with 3 timeouts left amd a little less than 2 minutes to go, eagles could have easily made their way down into field goal position if not driving right down for a td.  Eagles are legit right now.

KC WR corp is their weak point and it was seriously apparent when Kelce was hurt.

They need to address that if they want another Superbowl.

I agree, it is a nice synopsis South Park wrote up.  Makes me kind of depressed being one of those 5-6 teams they mentioned.  Injuries these past few years have really killed me.  The crazy thing is in 3 of my 6 leagues I'm in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place, with having lost many of the same players.  I lost Chubb and Burrow in multiple leagues and somehow kept winning.

Anways..it's utterly depressing that we are well in to the second half of the season.  To me there is nothing better than the beginning of fall, where football is just getting kicked off, the weather is still somewhat warm, but not hot, nor typically too cold.  Pumpkin spice everything..FUCK I love NFL Fall time so much.  Everyone enjoy what time we have left of the year!!

Goes to show depth drafting and really checking out the waiver wire sometimes ends up being the reason people win.  I'm convinced you need to nail at least 3 solid starters in round 10 and on or the waiver wire to win.  Injuries seem to be getting worse and worse every year. (Coming from the guy in last place Smiley 😀

Agreed, I pointed this out to bbc.reporter before our draft hoping it would help him this year.

However, the rule change on waivers, will it make it easier for not very good fantasy players like me? I would have to agree to that change if yes hehehehehe.

You made some great moves last year!

I for one thought you were insane when You picked CMC over J.Taylor!

Well guess I ate some crow on that one! Smiley

Also you were leading for what the first half of the season and the only reason you didn't win imo was your bench depth.


You came in 3rd I think and for a second year player against the quality of players in this league I'd say that was a massive accomplishment!

Week 13 will put a spoke in someone's wheel i can tell you that much, especially those with several players from the Ravens, Bills, Bears, Raiders, Vikings, and Giants, who will all be on their bye that week. It's much easier to navigate through byepocalypse week like this early in the season, not so much late when it's also a must-win.

That being said, i expect some decent waiver wire finds through Weeks 13 and 14 as some might be forced to drop players they don't want to.

Well the giants went ahead amd screwd themselves up lol. No clue how Washington let the giants beat them up like that lol.  For some reason the giants no matter how bad they are seem to play Washington well.  Can't beat the eagles or cowboys but love to beat up on Washington.  

Actually took theor defense in 2 of my leagues this week lol.  

The Commanders are presently one of the worst teams in the NFL. I am aware that the Giants are also one of the worst teams, however before the game, giving them +9 against another worst team might be an underestimation for the Giants.

Also, the Cowboys won against the spread again vs. also one of the worst teams hehehe. They won -16 vs. the Giants for week 10 and again won -11 vs. the Panthers.

Sam Howell is probably going to be a decent QB in the league and the way Lawrence has been playing the last few weeks I wouldn't have started him either. Would have been a tough choice between Howell and Tua. Raiders are hit n miss week to week and with Was at the Gmen I prob would have started Howell as well. Oh well, any given Sunday right?

Haha yeah I just find it Ironic that the first Time I started him in place of anyone he decides to go on a interception tear! Cheesy

Baltimore losing their TE really hurt but I think they still win the division after Joe cool went down for the year.

Likely is actually a great TE and will do just fine in Mandrews place.

That's brutal for Burrow and the Bengals.  Door is open for Baltimore to take the league with the browns down without Watson too.  Pittsburg hanging strong which is surprising I didn't have them doing anything this year.  Tomlin is a good coach makes the most of his teams.  As a giants fan it's a race to a top 2 pick between them, carolina and the Pats.  I think with Murray back Zona will win a couple more games easily.
I like Tomlin mostly but he is a defensive coach and in this day and age of the NFL defensive coaches don't get too far usually. Pittsburgh used to be a huge brand, but these days I feel like they're living in the past and will not be great again until the restart the franchise. That starts with the defensive coach out. Baltimore losing their TE really hurt but I think they still win the division after Joe cool went down for the year.
