Up to 7-1 and the other 2 former 6-1 teams both lost, so I am finally alone atop the league with a 180+ point lead in the Total Points tiebreaker.. With a 4 game lead over the non-playoff teams, I can pretty much say I'm locked in for the post season. I would like to secure the one bye still, and now just set my team for the best position come weeks 16 and 17.
Next up I play the team that just lost Derrick Henry and has their 2nd RB on bye. 8-1 looks like it has a decent chance of happening.

Congrats. Glad to see someone dominating. At the halfway point I'm 3-5 and in 6th of a ten team league. I've scored 5th most points even with leaving a ton on the bench. Meanwhile I've had the 2nd most scored against me. I just seem to bring out the best in my opponents. This week it was the top score, last week the second highest score. I just hope Yahoo predictions is correct as they have me finishing 3rd meaning playoffs.

In my work league I am now 6-2 and in a three way tie for first in our division. The leader in the other division is 7-1, his loss coming against me. A 12 team league.
My other league I won to get to 2-6 (WOOHOO), a superflex, ppr, and idp league. Only 10 teams. It was also the league I had to auto draft in because I had to work. Ironically, I won because I didn't trust my second QB so put in Joe Mixon in the superflex spot last minute and he went off. I think that if I win the rest of the games I can sneak into the playoffs. Optimism at it's finest folks!!

Can anyone explain to me how Michael Carter of the Jets has 18 receiving yards without a catch. Both ESPN and NFL web sites show zero catches and 18 yards. Did a WR catch the ball but have it bounce off of him so he gets the catch but Carter the yards? Hook and ladder play?

Life is full of "ifs". Like IF I make the playoffs and IF they are healthy I will be picking 3 RBs out of Run CMC, D'Andre Swift, Chris Carson and Derrick Henry. Henry is the only one not on my roster but I have a waiver to pick him up tomorrow. I love players that do not realize they have IR spots and/or how to use them. That is how I got Carson and might be how I get Henry.

I sat Cordarrelle Patterson and Justin Herbert. If I played either I would have had a win wrapped up going into SNF. As it was his team was done and I trailed by 14 going into SNF with Stafford and Woods. I thought I had the W wrapped up then I remembered what happened a few weeks back where I was in about the same situation going into MNF and my guys bombed leading to a small loss. Well my boys made me sweat into the 4th quarter before finally getting me over the finish line. It sure is hard to win with a QB only tossing 2 TDs and none of my other guys scoring a TD. Happy Run CMC is back. Just hope it's to stay.

I dropped my game this week to fall to 7-2. None of my position players had a TD, but still nearly put up 100 points. If I had started George Kittle I would have won, but wasn't sure what playing time he would have. Alas, I will still be in first, and will either be tied there or 1 game ahead still depending on what happens tonight.
I am glad my team is mostly back to full strength with the exception of Kyler Murray. I do have Derek Carr as my backup who has been really good most weeks...just not this week.

That’s a tough one Edge, glad u pulled it out. TM, I actually won a game this week because he sat Kittle. All the news coming out said Kittle was on a snap count so who would expect him to do that. One of the most annoying things in fantasy is when you hear a guy is going to be limited in game, only for him to go off.
This week I’m 2-0 except in my highest money league. There I’m the high scorer playing a 2-6 team that didn’t bother to replace Kyler Murray and I’m ONLY up 6 thanks to that garbage time drive by Stafford. I got Ekeler, Adams, Chase, Lamb and M Andrews and it all comes down to the Bears Def. Tragic

Well this stinks. Just when Stafford started finding Robert Woods more and he had FF value the Rams go and sign OBJ. I mean he will probably help Stafford making him move valuable for me but I think Woods will take a hit.

It’s weird to me that they released DJax because there weren’t enough balls to go around and now they add OBJ, who left Cleveland cause he wasn’t getting the ball. The reward is a top 5 offense might be #1 now but the downside is great
