I managed to sneak into the playoffs at 6-7 after my 0-4 start. Had the most points for and most points against of anyone in the league. Round 1 match up is against the guy with the second most points on the season, of course.

Thought I was going to miss the playoffs in all 4 of my leagues but all of my teams have decided to make nice little runs these last 3 weeks. Got into the playoffs in 2 leagues and am in a win and I'm in situation in my main league this week. Fun stuff.

I finished 1st in both leagues and may get booted in the first round in both. Why do I do this every year?

Made playoffs and top points in 2 leagues. Missed playoffs in 3rd, oldest league that I'm a part of. In 7 years, I have never made the playoffs but also never finished last (which has punishment).

 

It's an incredible streak.

Missed the playoffs in all 3 leagues.

 

I guess having no interest in football is detrimental to my fantasy football success.

 

:huh

My bigger money league I am completely dependent on the Seahawks passing game with Wilson, Graham, and Baldwin. Of course, they now face the league's top pass defense in round 1 of the fantasy playoffs.

Contemplating not starting Jordan Howard for my playoff game. The guy has been a complete bust.

I'm a mess. I have Lamar Miller, Ingram, and now Burkhead, but also Alfred Morris. I'm shuffling and scrambline. Down 10 heading into 2nd week of semifinal.

I'm screwed.

I have Miller as well. I'm hping he does well against SF with all of the other runners for Houston hurt.

Miller and Howard made me nervous all year. Luckily I had Elliott to mask those problems...until recently.

I'm only in 1 league. Ended up with the #1 seed and highest Points For.

 

Made what I thought was a really savy trade of Ezekiel Elliott and Marcus Mariota for Tom Brady (It's a 1-player keeper league, and I have Antonio Brown as well). But of course, Tom Brady s*** the bed last week with only 6 points. Howard only got my like 3, and Diggs only got me 4.

 

Lost in the 1st RD to the 8th seed, and the same guy I killed in the final week of the regular season.

 

My only rooting interest now is my girlfriend's team. She finished as the #2 seed, but after this Thursday game, is projected to lose by a few points. Should be an exciting Sunday for us watching the games together.

Good game Ingram. And opponent had Thomas. Why do I do this to myself every year?

Desperate at WR2 this week with a lot of injured guys on my roster.

 

Options are:

 

Cordarelle Patterson against a KC defense that is looking worse each week and Marcus Peters suspended. Raiders offense actually looked good the last time they played.

 

Will Fuller in his 1st game back after a few weeks, at home vs SF. A number of WRs and their starting TE are out so he may get some targets but Savage is the QB.

It never fails, Wilson appears to be throwing a dud game, then goes off I'm the 4th. Up 29 against Cooks and Drake. Favored to win, but you never know

Semi-final game today and somehow I'm still alive with seemingly the worst set of WRs in fantasy playoff history.

 

Need to start 2 from this trio:

 

Stefon Diggs at Carolina (a pretty safe bet for 60 or 70 yards and unlikely to score; pretty tough Panthers D)

Robert Woods at Seattle (1st game back from injury but was killing it before getting hurt; Seattle D with tons of injuries)

Dede Westbrook vs Houston (Getting better each week as he's getting the most targets since getting healthy; Houston pass D is terrible)

For the record, Minnesota is home against Cincinnati.

As frustrated as I was to win the regular season then lose first round, it feels good to not have to worry about this anymore...until next year.

Here we go again. Need yet another second half miracle from Wilson

Ouch. That was brutal.

So Todd Gurley single handedly sends me to the finals in one of my leagues, and Juju Smith-Schuster might of sent me packing in the other league.. (need Lynch to bomb to move on in that league)

My girlfriend ended up winning 3rd place.

 

1st place in our league comes down to someone needing Sanu + Falcons defense to get him 13 pts. Should be easy, but anything can happen.

I am up 22.14 in the Semi's. The guy I am facing has Mike Evans and I have Austin Hooper. Not sure why I am worried so much but I am

WOW! the guy I faced only needed 13 points to beat me with Lynch and he gave him 12. I won by a point. Thank you Dallas and Derek Carr!
