FF2012: GWJFFL Week 9

Doug Martin straight up!

There was a little bit of a slow start with him, but I'm feeling super justified now for the price I paid for Martin in the Dynasty league. This week, obviously, he was out of his mind, but for all 4 weeks since the bye week, he's been a monster. With luck, this guy will be an RB1 for my dynasty team for years.

What is the high score for the plat league is it under 200?

I believe it's still my 181.

Oh snap I have 168 and still have Brees to play. It is possible!

I would have won is it wasn't for the 58 freakin points Doug Martin got. That's just ridiculous. Also Percy Harvin leaving in the beginning of the game didn't help. bad luck week all around.

Just need Pierre Thomas, Jimmy Graham and Garret Hartley to not score 60 more points than McCoy.

The thing is, I almost want you to beat it. I'm in another pay league where I have Brees left and am down by 26 points. However, in that league, I'm mostly rooting for the win for vanity's sake (I'm 8-0 and would like to keep a perfect season intact).

Pathetic performance by Hakeem Nicks makes a W for my team a big challenge in Silver. I need Desean Jackson to outscore Lance Moore and Henery by 8 points... with how bad NO's defense is, its certainly in the realm of possibility, but would have been a lot better if Nicks showed up or if I was smart enough to start Jermaine Gresham over Jared Cook. Thankful I didn't start my other option Dez Bryant though, or this game would be well over by now.

In order to improve my standings, I need Vick and McCoy to score 4.5 points by the end of the game. If it were any other QB/RB combination I would feel confidant.

As it is, I'm worried.

And it looks like the 3-way tie at 3-5 in Silver/North is going to be partially broken.

Two of us (me being one) are moving up to 4-5, and the other is dropping back to 3-6.

Much different season for me than last year when at this point my team was like 3-6.

Awesome... i entered last night with Lance Moore and the lead in one league and against him and trailing in GWJ Silver. Lance did just enough to score enough points to beat me in silver, and not enough to hold off my opponent in the other.

Madness in Silver.. 7 teams sitting at 4-5 and 2 at 5-4. Going to come down to the wire.. i'm glad fleaflicker knows how to figure out the tiebreakers for playoff spots because I sure as heck have no idea whats going on there.

Nobody is out yet in Gold I think. The standings show 4 GB for some, with 4 games left before the playoffs.

So desperate yes, but not out.

I did it last year in Silver. Snuck into the playoffs with a 5-7 record and won the whole thing. It ain't over til its over.

You don't have to remind me. I was your division winner that you came back and beat in the playoffs despite sweeping you in the regular season. :p

Hm... set up nicely for me to do the same to you this year.

My main computer might be dead. I'll have to create the week 10 thread from work tomorrow.

I keep having the second or third highest point total in silver -- and losing my matchups. Like, of COURSE my opponent had the Bears D this week. For TWENTY EIGHT GOD DAMNED POINTS ... while NE was on bye.

Sigh.
