No this is going to be close. Deshaun Watson is out and my backup, Rivers, is on a bye so I had to pick up Jay Cutler. Added to that Kelvin Benjamin was traded to Buffalo and was inactive on Thursday which I didn't pick up on in time so I got zero points there. Should be a nail biting day.

I was 65 or so points ahead at the end of the main Sunday games and I took a nose through your remaining 3 players and couldn't see Cutler, the excellent Crabtree and one of your IDPs getting this total.

Woke up this morning to find Cutler had thrown for over 300, with 3 passing TDs - thought to myself that's 40pts right there.
VERY relieved to see Crabtree wasn't at the races and in the end have nicked a very good matchup by 4pts!
Didn't help that I chose this week to bench the double scoring Rob Kelley!

Up next, Hype Train... versus 1st and 2nd back to back weeks!

I went to bed early thinking it was hopeless and woke up this morning to and out I lost by 6 points. If only I'd caught the fact that Kelvin Benjamin was inactive.

0.3 stinking points! That's basically 3 yards. A game of inches indeed.

Well the Florida Hammers are doing their usual late season swoon. Just lost to a 2-9 team now Crabtree is suspended (thankfully back for the playoffs). Have a couple of starters out injured. I should know better than to name my team the Hammers.

I won??

I won!!!

Undoubtedly because my opponents kept having their worst week of the season against me. But I’ll take it.

Thanks Dyl and everyone for a great season :scarfer:

Just logging in to say, anyone who didn't join this league when it was instigated back in 2014 has missed out big time.

It is now the greatest thing on the internet.

Hi all - the following regards the Dynasty League

As most of you know from the whatsapp group, we are trying to get the ideal scoring settings in place where the correct value is given to positions to ensure none are overpowered, but they all have importance and correlate with one another.

At the moment, the issue of bonus points is one we need to find the right solution for. The following is what is offered in terms of bonuses by fantasy, for QB. RB and WR/TE. If you could reply indicating which bonuses you think we should employ for each position, that would be great. I’ll then tally it up in due time and we will hopefully have a fair result.

*QB*
- 300-399 pass yards
- 400+
- 40+ passing yard TD
- 50+ passing yard TD


*RB*
- 100-199 rush yards
- 200+
- 40+ yard rush TD
- 50+ yard rush TD


WR/RB/TE
- 100-199 rec yards
- 200+
- 40+ yard rec TD
- 50+ yard rec TD

50+ yard rush TD - 2 Bonus Points

WR/RB/TE
100-199 rec yards - 1 Bonus Point
200+ - 3 Bonus Points
50+ yard rec TD - 2 Bonus Points

Whilst I like the idea of individual moments being granted additional points, specific bonus for a high yardage play or td across all positions, bonuses for big games seems unnecessary.

If a player is having a 200 yard rushing game, or a 500 yard passing game, do they need additional points? They're already going to be just about the top scorers in their position for the week. Unsure.

I'm not keen on bonus points for specific plays, i.e. a 50 yard rush TD.

You get the yardage anyway, so I don't really see a point. Sometimes a chunk yardage play isn't because of a particularly impressive play, but rather broken coverage.
