Nice of my WR1 and WR2 to put up matching 2.90 point performances.

Now all I have to do is hope Latavius Murray, who started the season as Dollar General Mark Ingram and is currently somewhere around Flea Market Marion Barber, outscores teammate Michael loving Thomas by 10 points tomorrow night.

Even when the Saints play like poo poo, Michael Thomas gets 7 catches for 95 yards

No wishing for meaningful injuries. If someone happens to cramp up or get a stinger that keeps them out of half the game well....

It's a hot race for last place!

I am down 7 points with Jared Cook (fresh off a concussion but also starting) and Will Lutz to go. Yahoo says I'm an 88% favorite, but I've played enough fantasy football to know that points on the board are way more valuable than projected points.

I much closer until the last 5 minutes of that game last night, when that lovely Steelers QB took 2 ugly sacks and threw two picks!

My first time in a fantasy football final, which is exciting!! also pretty amazing considering I was in Thailand and didn't bother with it for two weeks (which I lost).

But you know, can't keep a good man down I guess

That’s me. I’m playing you for third place. Chili’s team is Jameis’ loving W and he did win the consolation bracket for the #1 draft pick.

I just need five points from Boone. In another league I need him to score less than 12 to win that Super Bowl so 5 works for me. Go Boone but not too much. :)

Maybe I'm confused about what winning the consolation bracket means. I thought that meant 3rd place?

Also started thinking about keepers next year. Saquon, yes. Matt Ryan, gently caress off. Maybe.....NE DEF? :haw:

No, the consolation bracket is for those who didn’t make the playoffs at all. That’s something that gives those players something to keep playing for (draft positions for next year) instead of money/championships.

My two keepers are probably Lamar and CMC. Ekeler would be a third possibility.
