Fantasy Football

[UCFKnightfan08]

For most leagues this is the last week before the playoffs start. How did your team(s) do?

I have 5 teams because I don't know how to say no. Two of them are for money ($100), the rest are for fun. Of the 2 one team will probably be the 3 seed at 9-4. The other team is currently in a giant tie at 7-5. Top 7 teams (6 get in) are 9-3, 8-4, then 5 tied at 7-5. I'm playing another 7-5 team, need 24 from Luck to win and get in (great first half for me!)

 

[UCFRogerz]

I had a very mediocre year in both my cash leagues. Both teams are . 500 going into the playoffs. Middle seed so not bad. My team's were either huge or busts. No consistency.

 

[sk8knight]

Had the first pick. Clinched the #1 seed at 10-3 after this week. Winner gets the lion share of a pretty good pot. Been a good season.

 

[Bob the Citronaut]

Started the year 1-7 and finished 4-2 to get the 8th seed for the playoffs. I will summarily be destroyed by the number one seed this weekend.

 

[EweSeaEff]

First year in many that I did not make the playoffs in our league.

 

[1ofTheseKnights]

9-4. One of 8 teams from 20 to advance to make the playoffs. Came out of fantasy football for a work league.

My "All UCF" team faired poorly early on but has made a strong rebound to 7-5 once I cut Aiken and Perriman. Murray, Prater and Bortles have been solid to outstanding. Didn't get Marshall.

 

[CommuterBob]

I play in four this season, two for cash, two for pride. Both my money leagues I had the second to last pick in the draft. Both of them I made the playoffs at 7-6 as the #5 seed. Hoping for some luck. Both of my free leagues I missed the playoffs, despite having a top 3 pick in each.

 

[MACHater02]

Made the playoffs in all 3 of my leagues.

 

[Young Knight]

Clinched the #1 seed in the playoffs at 10-3. Had last pick in the draft and won the championship last year as well. Going for #Back2Back

 

[vroomba]

Started off 5-0, finished 3-5 but made it in 8-5 as the 5 seed. My points for is pretty high, but so is my points against, which is where I got some of those losses.

 

[USFSucks]

Number 1 seed in one league, number 2 in another, missed the playoffs in the other 3.

 

[UCFKnightfan08]

Advanced in my two cash leagues and a "for pride" family league. Playoffs start next week in my 4th league, 2nd seed, missed the playoffs in league 5.

 

[CommuterBob]

Lost both wildcard playoff games (thanks, Melvin Gordon and Mark Ingram for 0 and 1 points, respectively).

Yeah. How dare Gordon have a major hip injury!

 

[DuvalKnight]

Lost my playoff game this past weekend. I would like to thank the following who made this loss happen:

Cam Newton
Mike Evans
Antonio Brown
Matt Forte
Thomas Rawls
Mark Ingram
Delanie Walker

This group of gentlemen did the unthinkable and scored less than half of their projected point total for the week. Amazing group effort!

 

[CommuterBob]

HOW DARE HE??? I DON'T PAY FOR HIM TO SIT ON THE BENCH!!!!

Ouch, solid lineup on paper to get beat round one. Forte hasn't been great since about week 4 though.

How'd you not have a bye with that lineup?

 

[sk8knight]

Yeah. How dare Gordon have a major hip injury!

We only have a 4 team playoff so last week didn't matter for me. Except that I lost both Gordon and Forte. At least I have Powell.

The league I have Gordon I was on a bye, so this week I'm struggling as I didn't have a good backup option

Question: do you guys watch RedZone even when "your team" is playing? I don't play FF but I was at a friends' house on Sunday with a bunch of guys, all of whom play FF, and they put the goddamn REd Zone channel on instead of the Bucs game. Even though most of these people are supposed Bucs fans. It was so crappy.

It depends on where I'm watching. I have a media room with a 120" projector pointing to the wall, when I watch there I use the side by side option and out the Eagles game as the main TV while the RZC is secondary. If I watch downstairs or in my bedroom I watch the Eagles game and check out RZC during commercials.

 

[cnsaguy]

I love the RZ. The only problem is that there are never commercial breaks to give you a deadline to get off your lazy ass and be productive. I don't pour over fantasy stats all day, I'll keep track but I'm not obsessed with it.

 

[UCFKnightfan08]

I will put the Jets game on the TV and RZ on my ipad. When the Jets fall way behind/generally look like crap I switch it. Usually takes about 10 minutes (real minutes, not game minutes).

 

[UCFRogerz]

If ****tard Le'Veon Bell didn't go apeshit I would have made it to the second round.

I'm glad I didn't run into him last week. In 2 of my leagues he was on a team with a BYE so sucks for those guys I guess.

 

[sk8knight]

Antonio Brown's TD won me my fantasy league this year. Luck got me the first pick and I didn't screw it up. Although, I did draft Ajayi only to drop him a week before he started going off. It's all in the rear view now though.

 

[USFSucks]

Ended up 3rd in two leagues, finished down $50 overall

 

[UCFKnightfan08]

Went 3-1 in championship games. A far cry from my usual year of finishing 7th, first spot out of the playoffs. The one I lost was only $20 buy in, I think I get $40. Two of my wins are $100 leagues that pay $700 each. Other win was no cash.
