I'm like the Peyton Manning of Fantasy Football - sick regular season numbers, iffy/terrible playoff numbers. Unlike Peyton, I've never won a title.

But since my curse has been broken, I've gotten super lucky and won 2 playoff games I should have lost
and now play for my league's title, and 1000 in cash, this week. So excited!

I'm heavily favored as of today, but those fantasy projections mean only so much. The real game starts Thursday.

Are you still alive? If so, celebrate our Fantasy awesomeness!

One day nearer spring
Really productive points players are ussually on teams that are already in the playoffs so people who got lucky picks ussually still have players on teams that are still competing, :shrug:

My team the Boston Beavers only won once...

One generally useful fantasy strategy is to target players from teams that score a lot of points.

For example, if you think Green Bay is awesome, going Rodgers-Nelson-Cobb-Lacy is a bold and points worthy strategy.

But it can burn you with a bad game.

It might be quite easy to stack your team with players from the same team if you so desired on draft day.

Why not draft Packers? Patriots? Broncos? They're all almost guaranteed to score lots of points.

It has come to my attention that there has been a rash of people posting about their dumb fantasy teams in GBS. This is very annoying! I know you think that the rest of the world really cares about what your fourth string wide receiver did this week, but they actually don't. At all. In fact there are few things in the world LESS interesting than someone else's fantasy team. Please do not post about it here in the future.

If you still cannot resist posting about your fantasy teams, you are more welcome to take such discussion to our gaming/fantasy forum The Armchair Quarterback: Fantasy Playoffs!

How deep a sleeper are you talking about? I've been researching the dregs of the league.

For example, noted white receiver Cole Beasley for Dallas.

I'm trying to prepare for the possibility that TY Hilton doesn't play, and if I'm not smart, I get caught with having no one play since its a Sunday 4:20 game.

Don't forget there's two games on Saturday this week.

Cole Beasley would be an interesting sleeper and also belongs in the GBS gross dudes w long hair thread :barf:

i picked the denver kicker last week as my sleeper cause manning's balls kept looking wobblier every week

I picked up the Denver kicker 3 weeks ago and it's been good.



Desperation sleeper with possible big upside and big downside is Chicago WR Marquess Wilson.

But I don't know if you can trust any Bears.

Pick up Joseph Randle and Kniles Davis as possible fills in for Murray/Charles.

the bears are such a dumpster fire right now, until last week i don't recall ever seeing a WR getting called for offsides, much less two of them in the same game. i got super lucky w Alshon Jeffery's late TD but this week i think i'll take a chance on Harry Douglas instead.

My opponent already got Randle but i got Davis and Hyde :ohdear:

Hell yeah on Douglas if he's available. Though I see he didn't practice today so check the injury.

Another possible sleeper is Marques Colston - most people gave up on him halfway through the season, but he's had like 4 good games in a row and one assumes New Orleans - Atlanta will be high scoring.

Titans are starting Whitehurst and Jags actually have an OK defense of late. If you're trying for illogic, go Jags!
