    same as last year div 4 had 4 teams with winning records then aswell.

    Its a pain in the ass being 7-4 and not being in the playoff spots when teams at 5-6 are but thats fantasy football for ya. I missed out on the playoffs last year with an 8-5 record i think and might miss out with an even better record this year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,492 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    And I'm still the top scorer and stuck on 6-5, keep getting beaten by small amounts by teams having a better than average day. All I can do is hope that things go right for me from here on and I get my just rewards for averaging 98 points per week.

    Whats the tiebreaker decider?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Head to Head, followed by Points scored I believe.

    Think I'm in either way now though.

    amnt sure of a win this week up by 13 and a bit and he has Nicks. But assuming I win and go 8-5

    the wildcard battle will be the following 5 teams all failing to win thier divisions but sitting 8-5 so will it be the head to head of these teams against each other ?

    that doesnt make sense as not everybody has played everybody. if it is this is how it turns out

    Lucan Liverbirds 2-1
    Dillon Panthers 2-1
    Dublin Blades 2-1
    Eagle Eyed Patriots 1-2
    Dundalk Oriels 1-3

    with Lucan and Dillon getting the spots on points scored.

    Im pretty sure it will be Eagle Eyed and Dundalk who make it on points scored though

    Either way Im on course to miss the playoffs for the second year in a row with an 8-5 record. HARSH !!

    Yeah, can't believe I am missing out. From 2nd seed most of the season to not even getting into a wildcard position. Very tough league this year. Good to see the majority of teams being active.

    Personally I think 16 team leagues are less fun as you don't really have enough room to pick a good player off the waiver.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    There have been good waiver pick ups though, Eagle eye picked up Leshore and Cobb, I've picked up Bryce Brown and Felix Jones.

    Not a huge amount of them but there have been good players there to pick up.

    enough waiver talent picked up if you were smart then agian its good to see not too much talent floating around its supposed to be a battle to find gems. OK very few elite talents but plenty of viable options to improve lots of teams.


    Josh Freeman #11 QB
    Russell Wilson #16 QB
    Colin Kaepernick QB

    Mikel Leshoure #20 RB
    Felix Jones #25 RB
    Joique Bell #26 RB
    Bryce Brown RB

    Randal Cobb #14 WR
    Cecli Shorts #15 WR
    James Jones #19 WR
    Golden Tate #32 WR
    Josh Gordon #33 WR
    Brian Hartline #34 WR
    TY Hilton #35 WR

    Brandon Myres #5 TE
    Jermaine Gresham #10 TE

    Well I was never really too high in waiver order when I saw someone I wanted so that probably didn't help.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    I presume it will go on points scored to decide ties of more than 2 people? If so you should get in alright.

    Hope so. All will be revealed tomorrow anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,597 ✭✭✭skeleton_boy


    I enjoy the depth of 16 teams. I'm going to lose this week, hope I don't go from #1 seed to out of the playoff!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    So the playoffs are:

    Dillon Panthers v Mehtastic
    SuperBestFriends v Lucan Liverboards

    1st Round Bye

    Dolfans
    4thandforever.


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


    Gone from 2nd seed all the way down to 8th. :o 2nd top scorer in the league. Come on Adrian, hope you win this. :)


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    I just hope Bryce Brown stays involved for the Eagles.


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


    So second season in a row I finish 8-5 in Div 1 and second season in a row to miss the playoffs on the bubble.

    #1 seed for consolation bracket again. woop de doo :(

    Fantasy football can be so cruel.

    :mad:

    congrats on those in the playoffs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,597 ✭✭✭skeleton_boy


    In, just! One game away from back to back promotions but its going to be tough despite playing a team with a losing record. I like their match ups. Now do I start Brady against the Texans or Luck against the Titans

    you have stuck with Brady all year with Luck on the bench IIRC, but personally Id play Luck v the Titans over Brady v the Texans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,597 ✭✭✭skeleton_boy


    I'm just afraid of a Colts comedown after a massive road win while Brady lights it up in a big game on MNF. Think I'd be more disappointed if I didn't play Brady and he had a great game. Will be changing my mind on this one all week :pac:

    Well I've a bye this week so its the following week I'm most concerned about.

    Him and BGE have been tearing it up for me the last few weeks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,492 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I knew there was a reason why the head to head was a bad idea and its because everybody doesn't play each other.

    I feel sick that I haven't made the playoffs. I didn't lost any game by 10 points, I had three four point losses and two six point losses I think. I had the highest points total pretty much all season and in the last game I beat the then no.1 seed and I've beaten the current no.1 seed too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    Scraped into the playoffs, got lucky all year to win with huge injuries, now with everyone back healthy my team is close to full strength. Only issue is whether or not Big Ben plays, if he does i think I can win, if not then Wallace will struggle yet again.

    yeah its a cruel game. I missed the playoffs last season with 8-5 record on points scored because one of my wins got changed to a loss when a stat correction turned a tebow sack into a rush loss of 4 yards meaning I lost the match by .1 when i looked like i should have been 9-4

    this season I tied head to head with the two wildcards 2-1 so went to second tie breaker so missed out by 10.66 points over the whole season because for the first time all season I benched Anquan Boldin in the last game for Davone Bess.

    That cost me 12 points and a playoff spot. On such small things can fantasy seasons be decided.

    cest la vie

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    55 points ahead, he has brady, ridley and houston kicker graham left to play. think I should win


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    My team just scored their highest point total of the season 126 points....while I was on a bye. Hopefully Cam and the Seahawks stay around the 40 point mark for next week....

    Was hoping for back to back promotions and most weeks my total would have seen me achieve that. Fred Jackson really let me down in a tight contest. Best of luck in the semis tough to see Bryant going down. Hope he's ok as I've him in another league!

    Won 114 to 103, tough on him as higher seed and would of beaten everyone else. Hoping that Dez can keep going even with a broken finger, local radio say he will play through it as cowboys need him to beat the steelers, lose and he will be shut down for rest of the season
