    Have a OK at the Bengals think they are projected for over 300. Don't they use madden to do these projections?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭D3PO


    yeah some crazy defense projections this week lol.

    Was top scorer for the second week in a row and happily top of my division.

    Re tied records what is the tiebreaker ? I though it was points scored but obviously not. Is it head 2 head first and if more than 2 tied then points scored ?

    On a separate not Leitrim Gaels didn't bother their hole again last week. Two on a bye and one inactive. So its only 3 going down from Div1 this season so.

    Trust me to drop Harvin a few days before it is announced he is close to returning! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭D3PO


    Will finish with the 3rd highest score this week and I lose.

    I've had a min of 90 points every week average over 100 points and still I sit 4-3 having no luck at all this season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    First week I broke 100 :D

    Some do this regularly, it's rare for me!

    I'm sorry now I cut Locker, would have liked to have him on the team. Didn't expect him to be back so soon and now he got snapped up by another GM

    I snapped him up. Hes been very good this season quietly from a FF standpoint. Hes a nice backup for me to have for Russell Wilson.

    Forgetting week 1 his average is 21.32 points per game this season. Was delighted when I saw him in Free Agency.

    Just checking out how unlucky Ive been with matchups so far this season

    My overall record is 87-18

    weekly I've beaten 11, 12, 9, 15, 15 & 13 teams scores respectively yet. Ive scored 48 points cumulatively more than any other team in Div1 have yet to score less than 90 points on any given week yet I still only lie 4-3

    Its about time Im dealt a scheduling break !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭smackbunnybaby


    I think I'm in the group of death.
    Sitting at 4-3 and pretty high scores.
    5th overall
    but 3rd in my division of 4 as Dundalk Oriels and Spawn of Spongey have been outstanding so far!

    Wooo, Dundalk Oriels! I have gotten a couple of lucky wins though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭D3PO


    tomorrows waiver is going to be interesting.

    Bradford, Martin, Wayne, Cutler, Foster & Foles & Findlay all with varying degrees of injury will be lots of people scrambling for slim pickings !!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    Have the No 2 pick, huzzah!

    This is the week to use it

    Haven't put in a claim all season until now

    Not sure theres anything that tasty to pick up tbh. Granted you can gamble on further RB depth with the Tampa RB James who will take over from Martin and perhaps use it as trade bait although with Tampa bringing in Bobby Rainey from the Browns you would have to wonder how Rainey, Leonard and James will split the carrys. None of them will be a featured back for sure.

    I cant see anybody I would kill for although I have a waiver request in myself its more of a punt than anything.

    Will be lots of rolling of the dice Id imagine, Case Keenum will be picked up Im sure, Heyward Bey could be the best pickup of all with Wayne out for the season, but really there aint a whole lot floating around to be excited about.

    Lots of panic pickups will be seen though which will be fun to watch :)

    I've been very fortunate to be where I am now. Losing Martin is another blow although he hasn't exactly been lighting the world on fire. Hopefully Vareen is back sooner rather than later!

    My QB is tied for most rushing TDs on the team!! :pac:

    your looking at a defeat this week anyway :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,489 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'm interested in trades that include an elite WR. I've got Peyton Manning or Drew Brees up for grabs and a receiver like Edelman or Stills in a two way swap. I'll take a starting QB with the elite WR in a two way and I'll even put up Giovani Bernard for a 3 way swap which includes a starting RB.

    As long as I get the elite WR you have a really good chance of me accepting the trade.

    Leitrim Gaels making absolutely zero effort with this, booted next year for sure


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,851 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Neither did the Wildcats. 5 players out and if he had of just put on the people on his bench in place of the inactives and the byes he would have beaten my paltry 66 points.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    Wildcats were D2 champs last season.

    Led pretty much from start to finish, got the bye and then was clocking up 140 plus points in the playoff game weeks

    Surprised to see that team inactive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭D3PO


    So that's 2 sides going to be kicked for inactivity. Pity as it is going to mean some meaningless games for people towards the end of the year with only 2 teams actually going down.

    And then it has a knock on effect all the way down the pyramid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭smackbunnybaby


    How many weeks were Wildcats inactive?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭D3PO


    How many weeks were Wildcats inactive?

    Sorry I was making the assumption they were going to remain inactive of course they wouldn't be libel for kicking right now and hopefully will come back but Im just a pessimistic person. That's what happens when your an eagles fan ;)

    So far they are 2 weeks inactive.

    Need 14 points from Lacy tonight to keep my slim hopes of the playoffs alive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭smackbunnybaby


    Good old Ldeitrim Gaels are hammering me this week. Check the stats!

    Luck 24.84
    Spiller: 15.5
    Wilson: Bye
    Nelson: Still to come
    Austin: IA
    Bolden: Bye
    TE: Empty
    Sturgis: 8
    Dolphins: 22

    Total so far: 70.34

    He beat me with 4 players and a top WR in Nelson to come!

    That is headwrecking. I got hammered this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,574 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    I'm The Wildcats.

    I haven't been Inactive, I've just been decimated by Bye weeks the past few weeks as I couldn't make the draft and had to auto-draft.

    Week 7: One Player in my starting lineup Inactive (Jimmy Graham) as it was his Bye.

    Week 8: Three Inactive again due to Byes. Not help by two of my starters getting 0 points despite playing.

    Week 9: My fault this week, I never changed my team, the first week I haven't.

    So no, I'm not inactive, I'm just having an absolute nightmare of a season. Just check my history on the site sure and my other leagues, I'm active every week (aside from the one just gone)

    Division 1, the group of death!

    Am 6-3 yet only third in my division

    I have been the luckiest in the whole division. 7-2 and only had 650 points against me. :D

    I did drop Marlon Brown for Jacoby Jones this week though :mad:

    Get in. Forgot this operated on a division basis rather than standings so this win keeps me well in the mix. Tied top the division and up to 8th overall.

    That doesn't add up frankly its a BS excuse.

    Wk7 Why was Graham not replaced in your team ? Are all your bench that good that you couldn't lose one to get in a replacement TE Could you not have dropped Allen your backup TE that's on IR and got in a replacement ......

    Answer YES you could have conclusion you didn't bother setting a team

    Week 8 Three on byes again. Cutler you had Big Ben on the bench ... Marshall you had Streeter on the bench Bears D again could you not replace a guy on IR for a different Defense

    Answer YES you could have conclusion you didn't bother setting a team

    Week 9 you have admitted you didn't bother setting a team.

    So that's 3 weeks inactive in my book and as far as Im concerned you should be booted after this season.

    Your excuse is weak at best.

    Meh, look at my record in my other leagues this year. And in Div2 last year where I finished I think 14-2 and smashed it every week except for weeks 7-9 where I get destroyed by Byes, same thing happening this season, I don't plan for my Bye weeks when picking a team, I just accept I'm going to have a horrid patch mid season.

    Week 7 - I played without a TE, Meh, I've played without players last year and no-one gave a crap.

    Week 8 - Just seen I had Cutler starting over Big Ben, that's an oversight on my part.

    Week 9 - As I admitted, I completely spaced on setting my team.

    Luckily for me though even if I was inactive for three weeks as you claim, IMO it was one, although I can see your argument for two, I wouldn't be getting booted as from the charter....
    4. Any players who go inactive for more than 3 weeks during the season will be disqualified from entering for the next season. (Within reason, if someone goes on holiday for three weeks that's fine as long as they mention it before they do.)

    Meh your record last season is irrelevant as is your record in other leagues. Frankly I don't give a crap how you did in them.

    meh week 7 you didn't set a team week 8 you didn't set a team week 9 you didn't set a team that's a fact.

    perhaps by the charter you aren't due for a kick but your on your last legs. I for one hope you slip up again im not interested in playing against players who aren't arsed setting a team during their bye weeks
