That puts me in a tie with a divisional team for the final playoff spot.
Our playoffs start next week.
The first tie breaker is POINTS FOR for the year.
We are inexplicably tied in points for, for the entire year, with well over 1400 each.
We don't know the 2nd tiebreaker, but I believe it's H2H. If it is, I win.
If it's pretty much anything other than H2H (divisional record, points against) I'll lose.

I can't wait to see what happens when I wake up tomorrow. Shit, I'm worried about stat corrections from this week
Wow. what are the odds...GL when you check again tomorrow.

We both ended up scoring 1481 for the year, both at 6-6, I had 1399 against, he had 1385 against, and the H2H is what counted, so I made it in as the 6 seed. I'll play the same guy in the first round that I played this week and lost to by 3. If Demaryious can slow his roll, I 'll have a chance.

Kinda torn at a couple spots this week

My RBs are meh, picked up Gray a few weeks ago, Crowell last week, and Blount this week.

Lock starter: Crowell
Then its Blount, Gray, Charles Sims or Jonathan Stewart. Leaning towards Blount as he seems to have the highest potential for getting volume touches.

At flex, Im trying to decide on playing a second TE or 4th WR:

Starting WRs are Emmanuel Sanders and J Nelson, follwed by J Landry and Charles Johnson who I just picked up
TE's: Olsen, D Walker

Dont know where I want to go with it this week. C Johnson projects highest, the other three (Olsen/Walker/Landry) are pretty even

Didn't get a backup TE again this week.

Funny how I'm neglecting this league that I'm doing very well in to lose money daily on DFS that I'm not doing well on. :lol:

DFS is just so addictive. Gonna have my 1st 2 days in a row of not losing...because I probably won't play tonight as well lol.

The guy I'm playing this week in football is 11-1, 10 game winning streak, works in my office and likes to brag about said winning streak. I'm up by 4, but he has the Dolphins kicker tonight. For the 1st time, I"m mad at myself for not picking up a TE to cover for Julius Thomas. Doh!!!

1st round of the playoffs is a bad time for Maclin to be going up against Sherman this week.

I have AJ Green and Josh Gordon at WR, need a spot for the flex. Maclin has been great all season, but I'm guessing I should go with Mark Ingram in the flex? The only other remotely viable options are Percy Harvin and Roddy White, both a no go basically.

The rest of my lineup is pretty set:

Stafford
Lynch
Foster
Gordon
AJ Green
FLEX
Julius Thomas
Haushka(SEA kicker)
who knows at defense - I have Buffalo, they play Denver. Every team i try to grab on waivers gets picked up the last 3 days. Today I am trying to get Denver, going against the aforementioned Buffalo team.

Haha no kidding. You remember my boy Sinacola (he was in ndl last couple seasons)? Anyway, this poor bastard had third most points and finished dead last in the 12 team league, including 0-2 against me

I'd go Ingram

A less than 100% Rashad Jennings or Jonathan Stewart now that Williams isn't playing?

Stupid Julius Thomas. Looks like there won't be a decision on his availability until a couple of hours before their 4pm kickoff. But my backup, Dwayne Allen from Indy, plays at 1pm, so I'll probably have to roll with Allen in his return as I can't risk waiting on a Thomas decision if it's not in by 1pm.

My first ever playoff game!!!

Im playing Stewart today, although my choices arent as sexy. Starting Crowell and Stewart and benching Blount/Charles Sims.

If it was Jennings vs Stew, while I think Jennings probably has a higher ceiling Id go with Stew just based on volume of touches
