I’m rooting for third guy, he’s channeling my original name.

Just agreed to trade 2 kickers for Abdullah and Doyle which isn’t amazing but it’s better than I would get on the wire and it helps Fay in the league we both hate. Fucking foiled by the trade deadline... unless I can get it extended.
So...I chose the wrong quarterback this week in TTH
You can only moan if you lost.
Leave the bitching for me and Dan
Damn it Funchess. Even just the 1TD and I won
Where do I see waiver priority in the app?
I'm a twit
Click on league and you'll see it there in the table.
Results in the work league went as expected and I'm now all but confirmed top of my division. I've scored 130 points higher than the next highest scorer and they are 2 games back with 3 to go. I also still have to play the guy who is 0-10 in week 13. He was however the 2nd highest point scorer of this week, just he happened to be facing the top scorer. So he's not quite a gimme. I'm not sure anyone in my division can win out from here too.
This week I face the guy who got Kelce and Miller of me for Hunt and Reed. No doubt both will go off. But my WR2 spot is up for grabs. Green and Kupp both face tough matchups against Denver and Minnesota respectively. I've put in to replace Kupp with Marqise Lee, Parker, Stills or Larry Fitz. I just need to give them an order of priority.
I'm also thinking of dropping the Seahawks defence in favour of the Ravens. They have much more favourable matchups, bar week 14, for the rest of the season. The same is true of Wilson. If I can get good value for him I'll let him go and stream a QB.
Me 8-2
Dan 7-3
- - - - - - -
Pleb 7-3
Fay 6-4
Mahow 6-4
Gray Fox 5-5
- - - - - - - -
Ian 5-5
Mert 3-7
Baz 2-8
Sam 1-9
Eliminated Teams
So with that now being confirmed here are this weeks implications:
Me Vs Pleb
If I win the game I book a Play Off Spot for certain, and all but book a first round bye as I would be 2 games clear of 3rd with 2 games to play. In the unlikely event Dan loses to Sam I would be 1 win away from "winning" the standings.
If Pleb wins he will move up to, at worst, joint leader. He's unlikely to move into the top 2 this week though as he would need to beat me by 100 points or see Dan lose to Sam. Him winning would deny me a play off spot for one more week unless GF or Ian lose.
Gray Fox Vs Mahow
The biggest game of the week. If Gray Fox wins then he will overtake Mahow who will fall to 6th and have the pressure on. He won't fall out of the Play Of places though as Ian would need to make up over 100 points. This result would also eliminate Baz.
If Mahow wins he will remain above Gray Fox and could catch up to Fay, Pleb or even Dan if any of them lose. He would open the door for Ian to move into the play off places at GF's expense.
Mert Vs Fay
If Mert wins he will extend his unlikely hopes of making the play offs. He could move to within 1 game if both GF and Ian lose. Fay would also almost certainly fall down the table with either GF or Mahow (or possibly both) overtaking him. Ian could also catch him but again is unlikely to overtake given the points scored.
If Fay wins it all but ends Mert's season which will officially end if he loses and one of Ian/GF win. Fay would take a big step towards the play offs and will move up the table if Pleb loses or possibly even if Dan loses and he can make up 33 points on him.
Baz Vs Ian
If Baz wins he can keep his dream alive, but only if GF also loses to Mahow. In a way it is good for Baz that he faces both Ian and GF as he needs them to lose every game to have a chance.
If Ian wins again the pack ahead of him will be in big trouble. Whoever loses out of GF and Mahow will be dragged into a fight with Ian for that last play off spot, and others could also be dragged into it if results go against them. Should Mahow beat GF then Ian will move into the Play Off places with a win. If that doesn't happen he'll likely be looking at next weeks Fay Vs GF match as his next opportunity to overtake someone.
Dan Vs Sam
If Dan wins he will at worst remain 2nd and could overtake me back into the lead if I lose. He'll also book his Play Off spot if he wins and either GF or Ian lose.
If Sam wins Dan is expelled from the league.
As I said, I've been dropping shit to get Ian into contention.
Back into the win column this week so he can jump over Gray.
Cmon Mahow!
I'm a twit
Fighting for the little people.
Cooper, I’m sorry
Wallace though?
You're going to be raging at an ineffective Flacco attempting to implement Mornhinweg's awful play calls.
Probably, yeah
Two week gamble at best, and I might not end up using him, but he’s probably got more upside than Kupp in that time period. Much worse floor as well though.
The fact I considered dropping Dalton for JD McKissick or Terron Ward, though, sums up how much I’ll miss him.
So I had Tyrod in 2 leagues, Dynasty and my main league. I've had to boot him for Bortles (dynasty) and Rodgers (main league). Wonderful.
I also had Alex Smith in one of the two I owned Tyrod in, but he was my only guy in the other, leaving me with the likes of Cutler, Keenum & Dalton as the best options going forward
In my main league I had Cutler picked up earlier this week and kicked him yesterday so he's now on waivers but I can't claim him. I may consider it when he clears waivers, but I may just hope Ben and Mariota (it's a 2 QB league) can get me to the Play Offs and then have Rodgers hopefully back for them. I probably have other positions I can cut for Cutler should I need to. Keenum is gone there.
Dynasty is going to be all in on Cousins now, with Bortles serving as his only back up. Keenum is out there though, but I think Bortles has the better schedule.
So about Ezeziel Elliot...thats him done for the fantasy season then
Makes the GF versus Mahow match even more interesting now.
Would have done if he wasn't suspended for it anyway.
Nice of him to make sure he was around long enough to fuck me over, the bastard.
This weeks match up.
I'm pretty much taking an L here. Unless Brown and Kelce somehow manage to have bad games. Either way I should know if I stand a chance when I wake in the morning so it's not going to be a nervy one.
Kelce having a bad game against the Giants?
They've gone 10 games in a row letting a TE score.
It's pretty much the matchup someone dreams of.
Setting up a few daily fantasy teams for the week & decided to try to make the cheapest passable team I could...
QB - Gabbert $20
RB - Riddick $14
RB - Burkhead $15
WR - Matthews $15
WR - Crowder $12
WR - Inman $10
TE - Watson $10
FLEX - Ellington $11
DST - Vikings $10
Had $83 left from a $200 budget
I'll set up a league if anyone fancies taking on such a terrifying team of beasts.
I feel risky in TTH this week
Opponent has Brown and Steelers D. I've already pissing well lost and it's only Friday!
Has “cry me a rivers” given up?
I'm a twit
He may as well this week
Guess I’ll have lots of points to hand out in the pick’em!
That’s my highest output from QB all season in my main league
Facing the top team so it’ll still be tough but decent start.
Glad Bell didn't do much.
After 100s of maneuvers my team is actually not terrible right now. David Johnson getting injured so early was literally the end of my season it's a shame.
With Sterling Shepard likely out I face a dilemma in my main league. Crowell (Vs the Jags), Sanu (Vs the Seakhawks), Dion Lewis (Vs the Raiders) or Collins (Vs the Packers) or I could add Total Junk and hope Leonard sits... but that didn't work out at all for me last time. Rankings suggest Crowell but my gut is saying Lewis.
Collins or Lewis for me.
No idea how the L.O.B copes without most of its secondary and Crowell is Crowell.
I might side with Sanu.
The last time they lost Chancellor they were fucking awful but this time Sherman is also out.
You make a good point, Sanu it is I guess.
Yeah, I guess Sanu is probably the one I'd go with, but they're all fairly close.
I have a chance of getting a championship shot at both of my ESPN leagues
So am I certainly in the TTH playoffs if I win against @Browning this week?
As long as one of Ian/GF lose as well.
Can you draw? I'd really appreciate it if you could find a way to make that happen.
I've drawn once this season in another league but then stat changes turned it to a tight L
Forgot to put Inman in for Morris
If that comes back to haunt me something mad's happened today.
EDIT: JoHo
Mert winning against Fay is proper dirty.
My game looks tight. Both Ian and GF winning currently which is to be expected.
Please fuck off OJ Howard.
I really don't want to pick him up again, play him, regret it, drop him and then repeat in 2 weeks.
You can have Brate if you like.
