14th Annual BGO Ballers Fantasy Football League ***SkinsOrlando Champion***

[Neophyte]

Tough week. Mahommes played a pretty awful game, and then pulls up instead of taking it into the endzone at the end. The INTs and those missed 6 points going to be the reason I go down this week.

Yep, very tough. Self inflicted in my case. After watching Tua put up big numbers on my bench for 3 weeks while Jackson has played so-so. This week I made the switch thinking that Jackson was playing a stout Browns defense that has been the league best against QBs while Tua was likely to be in a shootout in Buffalo.

Wrong in both cases. LOL

I mean, I do kind of feel bad for you 2, but you are both 3-0 and going to still be 1st and 2nd after this week. I finally had my team perform for a week, so I think this week was great

 

[Boone]

Yeah, not bitching, it was just the perfect end to godawful sports weekend

 

[Kel Varnsen]

Whine and complain all you want in here. That's what this thread is for. Fantasy is such a love/hate game. The same guy that lights it up for you, will be the one that lets you down next week. All the knowledge in the world means so much less than the luck that is involved. I enjoy the break from real football, although some weeks it's more frustrating than real football.

 

[Shi no Tenshi]

Yeah, and I need to hold this week in my heart cause I'm not seeing that many points again this season

I'm 3rd but you promised me 2nd. I want my money back.

 

[Shi no Tenshi]

You know, that's fair. It was my game I didn't think he'd get much more, but his flex managed to bump you out.

Check is in the mail.

Good God, I made every single wrong pick I could on my lineup this weekend. That is a disgusting amount of points on the bench.

bleh.

 

[Kel Varnsen]

I’ve been all bad moves this year, and now I lost Cousins. So I’ve lost both Richardson and Cousins for the year. In another league, I also had Rodgers and Watson. Not a good year of me picking QBs.

 

[Primus Porcus]

How?

 

[Boone]

That’s a pretty tough week!

 

[Shi no Tenshi]

How?

Fantasy always does seem to give everybody a week where the world hates them. The hope is to only get one of those.

Today is one of my toughest challenges this year. Playing Canadian Hog who is having a great season so far, but several of my best players (including Patrick Mahommes) on their bye weeks. I was surprised at how few replacement QBs were available - I must be the only one who didn't carry a 2nd one. I ended up grabbing Josh Dobbs (Heinicke was the only other real alternative). That may cost me, we'll see. Good luck CH

Josh Dobbs has already exceeded my expectations and the 1st half isn't over yet.

Nope I didn't carry two either John, why I picked up Watson this week.

 

[Boone]

I know because I put in a waiver for him and lost

Boone,

GREAT job today! Man, every one of your guys went off, including Dobbs. I had all my best players on byes last week and did the exact opposite of what you did today - still find ways to produce points. I am getting rocked in fantasy and in the pick 'em this week. Maybe that means the Redskins get a victory and make it all better...

 

[Boone]

Well, it's not over. I've learned that no lead is enough in FF. But yeah, I've had one of those ridiculous days so far.

 

[Kel Varnsen]

Four weeks left in the regular season. Boone has taken control with a 2 game lead for first place. There are 4 teams tied for 2nd place at 6-4, and 3 other teams at .500 or better. The top 6 will make the playoffs, so it's going to be a battle down the stretch. A lot of head to head matchups will determine who is in and who is out.

Just a reminder, the trade deadline is this Saturday, 11/18. I know we don't really make a lot of trades in this league, but I just wanted to point that out.

 

[Boone]

Poised for my late-season dive as always!!!
