Rowand44 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 QUOTE (zenryan @ Dec 11, 2012 -> 05:42 PM) Do most people play in 10 team leagues where 6 make the playoffs? I've played for 8 years or so and I've never heard of more than the top 4 making it. Even in the NFL.com league where we had 12 teams broken into 3 divisions, the first place team of each division and 1 WC team made the playoffs. I'm with ya, top 4 in my 10 team league get in.

witesoxfan Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 11, 2012 -> 04:41 PM) 2 weeks is great though because it takes out outliers generally speaking. I am behind right now because of this week but it should all even out next week. There's virtually 0 reason for me to care this week because I am down 50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both my 10-team & 12-team have the top 6 making the playoffs. I have no problem with it as long as the top two teams get a bye to the semifinals.

Steve9347 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Anyone in the playoffs not picking up the Detroit Lions for the coming feast on the Arizona Cardinals' garbage QBs is nuts. I have the Lions, available in most leagues, as a top 3 play this weekend, if not the BEST play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Josh Freeman vs. NO or Brady vs. SF? Ravens vs. Denver or 49ers vs. NE? Guess I could go the Det. Route. One of Stevan Ridley vs. SF, Knowshon Moreno vs. Baltimore, Dwyer vs. Dallas, Ryan Matthews vs. Carolina. Any help? Just have to protect a fifty point lead.

On paper it's such a good matchup, but I have a funny feeling that somehow the s***ty Lions D will manage to f*** it up and not score a lot. I mean, it is the Lions. But yes, if you don't pick them up you are nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never bench Tom Brady. I don't care who he's playing. 2. Go Detroit - first, the Ravens defense has been s***ty, second, the Patriots are unstoppable against all right now, third, the Cardinals are hilarious. 3. Mathews is out immediately as I can and will never trust him. Dwyer gets no love with Big Ben back they are passing. The path to scoring on the Niners will not be paved on the ground. I say go with Moreno. He will likely punch at least one touchdown in, and Peyton is actually starting to check down to him.

Rowand44 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Picking up the Lions was a no brainer, unfortunately I had a really low waiver priority and the person I'm playing picked them up. Hopefully that doesn't kill me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 David Wilson could be a real surprise this week if Bradshaw's knee isn't 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Yeah, I'm still waiting on the results of Bradshaw's MRI. He always seems to play on Sundays, but maybe it'll be bad enough that he sits out. Then Wilson is a beast this weekend against the s***bomb Falcon run D.

Steve9347 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Well, there it is. Ahmad Bradshaw has been diagnosed with a sprained knee and is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons. It sounds like a Grade 1 sprain of a ligament, similar to the injury Robert Griffin III is working through right now. Bradshaw will not practice Wednesday, but coach Tom Coughlin declined to speculate any further than that. "I'm not going to rule him out of anything," he said while noting Bradshaw's toughness. I'm sure he'll play, but I think I might roll with Wilson over a guy like Josh Gordon in my flex (or possibly over Montell Owens). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjshoe04 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 For my flex spot and RB2, pick 2 of the following: Steven Jackson, Stevan Ridley, Knowshon Moreno, Bryce Brown, Justin Blackmon, and Montell Owens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Would I be crazy to start Mike Williams over Hakeem Nicks this week? Nicks is getting the targets and some TDs but just doesn't look right, and it should be a shootout down in NOLA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if RG was healthy it'd be a toss up, if he plays you know he's not 100% and likely can't pick up as much on the ground. Minimize the risk.

zenryan Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 13, 2012 -> 04:59 PM) I'd probably start Williams Me too. Freeman really trusts Williams when it comes to throwing balls up to him in 1-on-1 coverage. I'm playing the combo of Freeman-VJ this week in hopes of getting double TD points but I wont be surprised to see Williams with 60 yards and a TD this weekend.
