    Not sure. It could be record vs common opponents? Or points scored?

    Div 1 is tightening up too. It looks like 2 6-5 teams and 1 5-6 team. As the 5-6 team, not holding any tiebreakers, I think I'm out of playoff contention unfortunately.

    Edit: looks like I did beat Forte Year Old Virgin, so I may still have a shot.

    Suddenly have too much depth at RB, so open to a trade.

    Available: Ryan Mathews, Chris Ivory, Ben Tate, Bobby Rainey

    Would do a 2-for-1 to upgrade at RB
    Possibly do a 2-for-1 to upgrade another position (Tom Brady, Golden Tate, Cecil Shorts, Jordan Cameron).

    Trade deadline this Friday, so anyone interested hit me up ASAP

    barring 33 points for pierre garcon, I go 8-4.

    incredible really, 8-4 going into the last game is still not enough. It doesnt help that the two other teams in the division played against teams with inactives all over it.

    I play another division rival in the final game aswell.

    crazy stuff.

    Luck of the draw :(

    moving to 9-3 myself. That should hopefully guarantee a first seed and second successive promotion and regular season championship. Just to remind everyone I was given a second last projection at the start of the season :p

    certainly is. I could yet grab one of those top two seeds yet! It was shaun suishams foot that cost me the win against you the week I played you. He missed no kicks in 7 games and then missed two inside 35 yard :rolleyes:

    generally everyone in the top 8 is promoted anyways (due to inactives and dropouts), the only thing that matters is the trophy at the end of the season.

    Didn't he have a shocking start to the season as well.. ya, don't think my team is good enough to win it outright but happy enough with the league trophy again if I can hold out.

    Playoff spots getting very close now.

    Div 2 should have 2 8-4 teams, 2 7-5 teams after this week, while Div 3 will have 3 8-4 teams....

    If I can hold out against Big Game Bottlers next week I'll keep the top spot in Div 2 due to the head to head tie break.

    There may be 3 9-4 teams for the remaining 2 playoff spots..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    remarkable stuff alright. Its all comes down to the wire. Guaranteed that I finish one spot outside the playoffs.

    Good luck all! apart from you winbydefault, I hope you SUCK


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    I've tempted fate now.... Dawson is going to kick for 22 points tonight and leave me behind the pack....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    remarkably, still at 8-4, still not in the playoffs. even more incredibly, Its still out of my hands. Even if I win, if all the other teams win, I'm still not in the playoffs.

    So we have come to a situation where we can have 6 teams finish on a 9-4 record. We will all have beaten and lost to a couple of teams out of those 6 so I assume if this is the situation it will go on divisional record as there will be no one, probably, who will have beaten all 6 without loosing to another? Also only 5 of these will be advancing as the winner of div 1 will be in playoffs

    was going to do a what if for the playoffs but it appears that won't come last will have only played 2 div games. I can't see a game week where he plays winbydefault. Can someone double check this as I'm checking on the phone and also which gameweek it took place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Correct, I didn't play WinByDefault.
    If they win and Bottlers win this week, I have no idea how the div will finish up.

    Div 1 has turned into the NFC east.
    Whoever gets to the playoffs will have a 7-6 record while there'll be a few teams with better records who miss out.

    The schedule makes it a pretty exciting end to the divisional match-ups. I think if the scenario you said occurs, then it'll go to a points scored between me (WinByDefault) and Won't Come Last as all teams will be on 8-5 and I have a head-to-head win over Bottlers from back in Week 6


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Going to be a tight finish. Only a few points making the difference in the projections for both matchups.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭Guffy


    crazy!! after the thanksgiving games are are 6 people projected to be 9-4 or very close to it. Should it happen Aille Cows, Wont Come last and Cuttlering the Mustard will go through as division winners. One of the remaining 3 will lose out on a place to the winner of division one who will automatically go through, which looks like Blaque power. Wether its on h2h or div record I don't know (they play win by default which could alter that standing as i think it will give them a 2-1 div record).

    Forte year old virgin is projected to lose to 0-12 Waterford wolves which if Super Troopers manage to get a win against Infacte Indians will cost them their playoff spot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Reggie Bush's big day has me nervous...
    I reckon if I lose this week I'll be out of the playoffs.

    It'll be interesting finish though...could have all 4 div2 teams on 8-5 records after this week....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 360 ✭✭CJC86


    I was complaining about the division system last year, because the matchups aren't arranged so we play people in the division more, but it turns out I'm in the division that benefits from that this year.

    It's looking like a possibility that the winner of Div 1 will have a 6-7 record, but will get in ahead of someone with a 8-5 or 9-4 record. Doesn't seem fair tbh, but what can you do?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    ERIC DECKER IS KING


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 385 ✭✭deise_boi


    ERIC DECKER IS KING

    Absolutely gutted. Between Peterson getting some extra OT play and Decker just tearing it up, I can't imagine I'm going to get a W this time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭Guffy


    yay looks like I'm going to be regular season champion for the second season running. Happy out.

    Now to do the job in the post season ;)

    well done.....I need russell wilson to get 8 points and the seattle defense to get 2 points to scrape into the playoffs on 9-4 (i think).

    Never mind your playoff ambitions, I need my Seahawks defence to get 1.07 points to break this five game losing streak. :pac:

    I was 6-1 and top of the tables at one stage :(
    Sadly Forte Year Old Virgin has previously beaten me so unless the Saints heavy Waterford Wolves can get something going I'm out.

    There is a slight chance :P

    And that will knock me out of the playoffs position for the first time in 7 weeks!
    TBF, I've scored the second least amount of points in the league, I just got really, really lucky with the schedule!

    Will be some Craic if I lose to an 0-12 team to miss out on the playoffs. Left 37pts on the bench this weekend so while I don't think I deserve a playoff spot I'll gladly take it! As it stands Waterford Wolves have Brees, Thomas, Colston and Mooore and need 51.95 to get their first W of the season. Tough ask in Seattle but certainly not out of the question either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,098 ✭✭✭Johnny_Fontane


    scraped into the playoffs...........phew.

    Allie Cows and Cutlering the Mustard gain byes into the Semis and automatic promotion.

    Blacque Power goes up against Wont come last (in a renewal of the divisional rivalry) and Forty Year old virgin goes up against The Islanders, who are on a very hot streak with 8 wins in a row.

    Remember the consolation rounds......its not over yet. Last year, due to inactives, I think 11 teams were promoted to Division 4, so its very possible, if you finish well that you might get promoted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,631 ✭✭✭BaronVon


    Missed out on the playoffs by 1, having lost 4 of my last 5 games. But I've got top seed, and a bye, in the consolation round!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Going to be a tight playoff week, any of the 4 teams could progress...

    Looking at the players and matchups though, I think I'll lose this one.

    my matchups always look pretty good! with peterson/lacy & d.thomas/decker, you always have a chance! TE has been my weakness all season long, so maybe G.Graham can pull it out at home to JAX!

    That said, Cam and Jimmy Graham can bury teams, so its going to be really really tight. And they play early Monday morning, when my team are already done. So you'll know what you need to do whilst I wake up on Monday morning hoping they didnt do it!

    Either way, best of luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Didn't consider the possibility of snow this week.
    All of my receivers are playing in heavy snow that has completely shut down the passing games.

    I reckon I'll be lucky to break 50 points this week.
    Calling this one early, well done Johnny!

    I'm throwing in the towel as well. My Forte Year old virgin was fortunate to be in the playoffs anyway. I need the fantasy equivalent of a couple of onside kicks at this stage I'm away to bed. Good luck to Whoever owns "The Islanders" for the rest of the playoffs.
