Fml, jones fumble on the last play may have got me the win!

Here watching with TCol too... one of us is not happy.

Was a week of close contests. I only lost by 2 Pts cause Kelce fumbled late and I dont even own him! Was against the defender who stripped it and then the other campaigner that recovered it was also against me.

Kelce just holds that catch I win leading into my tank week as half my offense is on a bye!

Oh well it was a nice start anyway I suppose.

A few upsets have really tightened up the standings too... All bar one game I think was close or an upset. Great week!

One of the all-time barn burners this one, as the stars took a slender 172.8-163 lead going into MNF. It was Mahomes and Hill versus Jones and Toney. Hills 6-36-1 first quarter took the lead, only to be lost again on the next drive on Jones’ TD pass. Back and forth, Danny Dimes second TD pass was going to make it difficult, as Stars led 207.1-204.1. Enter Mahomes, driving his team downfield to what would surely lead to the game-winning TD… but no… a FUMBLE! Recovered by KC! Haze lucky to be down by 1.2 and not 3.2. Stars extend their lead to 2.3 on the ensuing drive, Haze surely needs a TD to Mahomes or Hill to steal this. Third play, INTERCEPTED, but there’s a defensive holding call!! Haze is still alive. 0.7 on the next play, 1.1 three plays later. 3rd down... Mahomes SACKED, Chiefs to kick the go ahead FG with the Haze down by 0.4pts!!!!

But there’s still time for a Hail Mary for the Giants, which means Jones could still potentially throw a game clinching INT… First play, 0.1 on a completion, Stars up by 0.5. Second play… Chris Jones is after Daniel Jones, “Strip him ya dumb campaigner” Fuey yells at the TV, Chris fails. A despondent Fuey slumps into his chair. 3rd play, incomplete. 4th down and game on the line, Dimes drops back, he’s got too much time, no he doesn’t Frank Clark SACK. TCols heart is in his mouth… BALLS LOSE!! HAZE WINS!! HAZE WINS!! HAZE WINS!!

And taking the mantle for biggest upset of the year, is this game… The league’s top team up against the one furthest from the top. The Berserkers form completely eluded them this week, missing their projected by a massive 61pts. A few injuries mixed in and the league leaders are now reeling. Can J Shuttlesworth concoct something to turn things around?? Constantgin had their mishaps too, but a very strong defensive performance secured their second win!

The quiet achiever Galactic notches up another win even with his top RB struggling. All offensive players bar Chubb and Hurts beating their projected, and leading towards the weeks highest score. The Vandals were gallant in defeat, and if it wasn’t for a few under-performers at WR, BeinPurplenGreen probably could’ve taken this one

Another lesson in not checking your team, but it honestly wouldn’t have changed much as this squad us currently on the nose. Losing both Rodgers and Henry will not help much either! The Broncos did just enough, not all that impressive themselves, only one player scoring above 20. Nine scored double digits though, so all is not lost.

Another absolute classic this week that came down to the MNF matchup. Leading in, the Assassins led by an almost as narrow as it gets 0.3pts. With WR Slayton, and DBs Bradberry and Ryan to come versus Chism s Darrel Williams, arakaan was a firm favourite. Williams was busy in the first, but the dinkin and dunkin of Mahomes to Hill, led to three tackled by the Giants DBs, extending the Assassins lead to 0.8. Williams busy again in the second, but the Giants DBs didn’t see a lot of the action. Meanwhile Slayton hasn’t seen much of the field, nor any targets in a half of football. Chasers have taken the lead at the half, leading by 2.3pts.

The second half continued to be tightly contested, until a FF by Logan Ryan was recovered by Bradberry, swinging the score by 7 points, re-taking the lead that would not be given up. Williams, kept the Chasers close, but ultimately could not get the required yards or TD to snatch the win!

1.5. Darius Leonard (PWH) 12.5
1.5. Vonn Bell (PWH) 12.5

Yet another close game, though not as exciting as the other two, PowerHouse was in the clubhouse as MNF started. This one was won in the 4th Quarter with 5min 42sec on the clock, with a not so exciting catch and run by Devontae Booker. Both teams had a hiccup or two, but Bucking Beads hit a bonus with Mike White’s 34pts at QB. A11dAtP0w3R was not so lucky, having 3 people score 0, including Dak being a late scratching. And Cooper Rush’s 24pts sitting on the pine.

yea, what a crock of s**t. I just know this game will cost me a playoff birth when ESPN caused me to lose.

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

Oh yeah, you're in a world of pain if Murray doesn't play... though I can't decide if it's a good or bad thing that it's a week you play TCol

AJ Brown may be able to put me in a posistion to try and steal one here.

Shame it had to be against Ramsey.

 

[Chism]

Chasers B team just not getting it done.

Bloody bye weeks suck arse.

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

TCol a wild Trevis Gipson appears...

 

[Constantgin]

Looks like i caused another upset this week.

 

[Constantgin]

Sorry Fuey

 

[fuey]

Sorry Fuey

Nah, it's all G... Mahomes and Burrow getting cold is hurting big time, but it is what it is!

Just going to show though, there's not a huge amount between the haves and have nots. Beating J Shuttlesworth last week and me this week, thats two of the top teams in the league... as long as you beat TCol next week to complete the set, we're cool.

 

[fuey]

Just going to show though, there's not a huge amount between the haves and have nots.

Everyone is still in the playoff hunt, I don't believe it's ever been tighter. The two 3-win teams may need a few things to fall their way later in the season, but destiny is still in their own hands.

Love it.

Game of the Week, tightens the standings even further for both divisions and the wildcard playoff race. Bucking Beads starting to get on a bit of a roll too!

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

Of all weeks for Kermit to properly turn back into Patrick.

 

[arakaan]

Ah s**t. Just realised I moved Allen to the bench and not Kamara last night. No idea how I f'ed that up.

I better lose by more than 19 points.

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

0.2 pts from the one available QB.

 

[Chism]

0.2 pts from the one available QB.

Nearly as good as my 10pts combined from Russ and Metcalf in a 10pt loss.

This one was done and dusted early, as neither team had any players playing on MNF. Bucking Beads continues their good form with their third straight victory, and give themselves a great shot at the division with 4 of their last 5 against division foes. Diggs the only genuine star to fire, Beads’ Army still has some improvement in them.

Constantgin treasured run at the expense of his divisional foes came to an abrupt end, as most of his offensive weapons found their early season form (or lack thereof). Only WRs Diontae Johnson and Bryan Edwards bucked that trend. TCol re-closed the gap to the top two of the Gem division, his own stars, Allen and McCaffrey leading the way.

2. Jordan Poyer (FHZ) 16.0
1. Matt Milano (FHZ) 14.0

Another great intra-divisional game, that went down to the wire (kind of), as the Haze held a 1.3pt lead going into MNF. The advantage was always with Fuey though, as he had two defenders in play as opposed to the Berserkers one. A 74.2pt difference between QBs clearly the main point of difference, as injuries threaten to de-rail a once promising season.

In a division that’s had more lead changes than SamFFCs power rankings, The GeeCats07 division is now co-led by the Vandals after a disastrous 0-3 start. Bit of a funny game overall, Assassins had 4 players score 0.0, and the Vandals had ZERO QBs in play. The quintuple-headed monster Taylor/Jefferson/Samuel/Andrews/Smith did a massive job in overcoming this weeks short-comings.

2. Marlon Humphrey (PAN) 13.5
1. Kyzir White (PAN) 13.0

All the regular signs pointed to a A11dAtP0w3R win, but this is why we can’t completely neglect our defenses, cos sometimes they come through and get us a win. The 29pt difference in defenses snuffed out a ADP win, and brought the Broncos into equal first in the division.

The Chasers look far from the team that averaged a shade below 250ppg in the first three weeks, as Chism average has dropped below 200 during s 4-game losing streak.The Gobsmackers remarkable consistency continues (one of only three teams to have only two games of scoring below 200, fuey and arakaan the others), and has the highest lowest score of anyone in the league (193).

***TRADE ALERT***

panda2com receives Cam Newton, 2022 3rd Rd

TCol receives conditional* 2022 2nd Rd



*Panda has two 2nd Rd picks, TCol will receive the higher pick

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Genuine bargain for panda if Cam can stay healthy. Reckon he is the starter next year for Carolina again if so.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I got offered Davis Mills for Cam in another league, knocked it back. I still have too much doubt about what the Texans are going to do at QB next season, reckon they draft someone given Taylor has got the starting gig back,

Mills is an interesting one... I think he could potentially be a long-term starter, but I don't see Culley lasting long enough to see him have that chance. They'll replace the QB when they replace Culley, IMO.

 

[Chism]

This game is just ****ed and I cannot take a trick luck wise. I give up and form is so hot and cold it is just ludicrous.





Literally same team goes from 240+ to open the season and is now struggling to get 180??

If your done can I borrow your QBs and a RB for the rest of the year?

I'll give em back, promise.
