Well, in all 3 of my leagues I was in the semis, in two of them I’m moving on to the chip. In the 3rd, I’ve got a 16.32 lead with Will Lutz vs. his Jared Cook and Indy defense. Tomorrow night is gonna suuuuck

 

Matched up against the top ranked team in my league and he might not even break 100 point thanks to no-shows from Cooper, Williams, Diggs & the Rams defense. I don't know how I lucked into that.

 

I started a Golden Tate, Curtis Samuel, Anthony Miller in the semi finals and absolutely blew out my opponent. LETS GOOOOOO!

 

Winston is still on the waiver wire...I have Brees and Tannehill...do I dare start Winston in the championship? Can he have these insane games three weeks in a row?

 

And to throw fuel on the fire, the Bucs play Houston next week.

 

It's almost too good to be true. Seems like a trap.

I know if I start him, he'll have a 5 TO game. But if I don't, he'll throw for 500 yards and 4 TDs

 

So just looking at the history....Lutz has only scored below 7 points once all year. He's projected to get 9. If he gets 9, I'll up by 25 points. Cooks hasn't gotten more than 21.90 points all year. Indy's defense is only projected for 3.65 points, but they've only scored less than once in the last 4 weeks.

Hopefully Brees just picks them apart with the WRs lol

 

I'm about to do one of these types of analysis really soon lol. I'm gonna go through week to week and add up Kamara and Lutz's combined points each week to see how confident I should be that they will get 17.2 points.

 

The good news for you is if Cooks does score a TD, he'll lose the points with Indy's defense AND you'll get a point back with Lutz.

 

If I were a betting man, I'd definitely go the over there.

 

True haha

 

Any other year I would, but I have been on the wrong end of far too many unlucky breaks this year to have any faith until it happens. It would be HUGE if Kamara scored his first TD in almost 3 months...

 

Not that anyone cares. Kamara and Lutz have failed to score 17.2 points twice this season. 17 even in week 2 and 15.8 last week. Pleeeeease Sean Payton let #41 score

 

Made it to the championship in one league. Other league I need 74 points from Kamara tonight to make it to the championship lol

 

I need 49 points from Brees, Pascal & Jack Doyle tonight to win.

Does anyone think I should drop Pascal for Marcus Johnson? If TY Hilton plays am I screwed?

 

I should be finishing in 3rd place after tonight’s game, just took a look at the teams in our championship and I would have beat both of them this week, real fun lol

 

It's looking like it's going to be the same exact match-up I had last year in the championship in my main money/friends league. He's down 10 but still has Thomas and Cook (and opponent has no one) so I assume he'll get those 10 points. Last year, he asked me to split the $900 prior to the championship game. I said no because a) the competitive side of me doesn't want to split and b) I had a better team, but then Gurley didn't play and I got smoked.

This year, I think he has a better team (Lamar owner), so I doubt he makes the split offer again (which I'd probably again say no anyway).

My other league, I got my face pounded in. So I'll look to recoup my money next week by finishing in 3rd.

 

Officially, going to the championship next week. Just have to wait for tonight's game to be over for me to figure out who I play against. Guy I've been friends with since middle school and has been living with me since Hurricane Michael needs 36.84 points between Drew Brees and Zach Pascal. I'm really rooting for him because he has the best team in the league (I'm pretty competitive so I really want the chance to beat him in the championship) and I think the next week will be a lot of fun living together and getting to talk trash to each other in person.

On a side note my team scored 184.2 points this week (1ppr) and that's with Kenyan Drake on my bench....

Edit: If I would have played Kenyan Drake over Melvin Gordon and Darius Slayton over Deebo Samuel I would have had 222.8 points.

 

Ugh. I need Brees, Cook, and the Saints D to score 34 points or less. It’s not gonna happen. Especially since it’s 6 points for a passing TD in this league.

 

$21 left to spend. My opponent in the championship next week has $20. He also has Dalvin Cook/Alex Mattison.

Should I spend the $21 to snag Boone to block him? Or pick up Breshad Perriman who I may throw into the flex?

 

I am ahead of the other kid in the championship on waivers. I am probably going to grab Perriman and hope Mattison returns lol

 

The guy I'm going up against hoarded all the good waiver claims this week so my best option is like, Kenny Stills or something if I don't want to start Golladay again. That one Colts receiver is also available but it seems like a low-end move if anything.

 

So perriman and Boone on waivers this week huh?

 

Welp, here we go. Last year in my 3 money leagues, I was in 3 semi finals and made 2 championship games. This year, I was once again in 3 semi final rounds, and I've made 2 chips. Pllllllease let me make it 3 for 3 tonight!

 

After 2.5 quarters, he's only gained .4 points on me so far. So still up by almost 16 points....feeling relatively good.

Potentially making 3 championships feels pretty damn good
