2015 Fantasy League (NFL)

Try this one?

via GIPHY

Prob need to do some work on that one to centre it properly :P (See my this that doesn't look very good :P)

No it doesn't work... It's a blinking picture at the moment.

Just saw there is a 5 way tie for that 4th playoff spot at the moment. 

Had to check the league rules, apparently the tie bracker is Most Bench Points.

EDIT: just realised that is regular season. Can't see rules for play off spots

Well at the moment Nialls Paul is in that 4th spot. So im guessing it is points scored?

Check the front page of this thread...haha I have already updated that to include that there are 4 teams witin 17.1pts of 4th spot...LOL

Playoffs currently:

Billikids (2) vs Rodriguez (3)

Tegal (1) vs Paul (4)

Last week Whale was just 17.5pts outside the playoffs. THis week there are THREE teams closer than that, Whale are 17.1pts out, Waffles 9.3pts out, Usos 4.3pts out. And the Hammers are a mere 28.5pts out.

Also it is 2 Division winners and THEN 2 Wildcards, this is irrelevant at this point as Billikids still wins the tiebreak over Rodriguez, but just to be clear if an issue comes up later.

Sorry for the lack of analysis this week, my brain is hurting and work is sooo dull that I can't seem to make my brain work at all, even to just write some crap about how much you all suck and my team is going to come back from 0-2 and beat you all, and then lose to Tegal in the final, because GRONK!

Antonio Brown on the slide. When is Ben due back again..?

was 4-6 weeks, so missed 2 games so far, he wants to play this weekend, no way they will let him, but the following week maybe. I think you have a better chance with Landry Jones starting as he knows the offense at least. (Time for a massive crutch argument with no evidence) BUT he seems to like Bryant as his favourite target and they worked together on the 2s.

Thursday Night Football

Seahawks (2-4) vs 49ers (2-4)

In our league we see very few players who actually matter.

Russell Wilson (HUYS) vs (NP)

Colin Kaepernick, Torrey Smith & Anquan Boldin (FAIR) vs (RMTC)

Phil Dawson (MW) vs (HMEZ)

Carlos Hyde (MET) vs Marshawn Lynch & Steven Hauschka (TEGA)

Seahawks D (MALO) vs (LOHA)

Lynch couldn't score in a brothel - then...

Wow the 49ers are really really terrible, I think we could see Tomsula & Kaepernick out at the end of the season...

Teams I think need a new QB in 2016

San Francisco 49ers

Detroit Lions (Anyone actually think Stafford is any good?)

Chicago Bears (Cutler could do it for 1 more year, but he isn't good)

Cleveland Browns (Yup again...)

New York Jets (Haha, this actually amuses me, Fitz clearly won the job, and he is average, Geno can't come back here Petty?)

Washington Redskins (Anyone question this?)

Philadelphia Eagles (Oh dear they overpaid for Bradford, and everyone else)

Houston Texans

New Orleans Saints (They should put Grayson in :D)

Denver Broncos (Peyton is done, is Osweiller good enough?)

St Louis Rams

Could need a new QB?

Kansas City Chiefs? (Alex Smith is close to done now I think, though with no run game maybe not fair to judge)

Indianapolis Colts (Ok maybe I'm pushing it here right?)

Baltimore Ravens?

Number of QBs available in draft who could start: 3

Going to be fun watching other teams start scrambling for QBs...

Umm Guys, I have just realised I made a mistake when I set-up the league this year, the Passing yards points are down as 0.02pts per passing yard, but it should be 0.04 (I admit I noticed because Russell Wilson's score was soo low this week....

As this was a mistake I should correct it right? Only issue is this may change some results on the season...I will go through and see which ones...

Week 1

Billikids vs Paul

Current Score: 106.2-102.2

New Score: 109.7-109.1 (Result the same, jut a LOT closer)

That is the only result that gets close to changing, so I am going to correct my mistake NOW before we run into something that will change a result :D

The only change at all is in the table where my previous 5 PF deficit to Usos is now a 2 PF lead.

I did think some of those QB averages you were posting were quite low. No worries! Amazing none of us picked up on it for this long! 

I want a recheck, surely I won more games... :p

Haha it took me paying attention to a Thursday Night game and caring about the QB playing :P

Involved in another close one. Need Forsett and/or Palmer to have a good game tonight and I should get over the line.

Weekly Report

The Games

TY.Hilton & Allen Robinson were the biggest bright spots for Nialls Paul, at one point after they had played I was a bit worried about the result, looking back I am not sure why I was. Other than a poor start from Russell Wilson all my skill players scored at least 13pts this week, which is a good day for any player at RB/WR just awesome to get it across the board.

This here is one of the biggest wins in Yellow Fever history. Todd Gurley already looks like one of the best RBs in the league. I'd rank him up there with LeVeon Bell & Adrian Peterson, others will argue with me. Danny Woodhead also put in a great game with Melvin Gordon not playing the full workload he normally has. The Fairies look to be in a bit of trouble now as San Frans offense is falling down, but also with Alfred Morris now somehow in 3 way share in Washington.

The cursor in this screen shot had me confused throughout writing this post. Other than Tom Brady & Rishard Matthews it looks like the Whale shark the bed this week. A reasonable effort from Rodriguez, though losing Foster for the season, and possible for his career could be killer. Jarvis Landry looks to be the biggest success from this change to coaching in Miami.

Lamar Miller had a ball in London as he scored 39.1pts on the Bills, that was a huge start for the Tegal team as they ran away with it. amusingly the WRs were a weakness this week, this after Tegal had 4 WRs in the Top 5 earlier in the season. The TYroopers had a good game from Fitzpatrick, but there is a bit of a struggle from other players. The Troopers will be looking for a bit of luck to get a win this season, they would have to be glad to not be in the Herbert division this season.

The Hammers won their 4th game in a row to move to 4-3 and into an incredible streak, it is now tied for one of the longest streaks in league history, the team that had 3 of the 5 longest losing streaks now has one of the longest winning ones. No single player in the Hammers team stands out as a superstar this week, just a bunch of good scores across the board leading to a good score that takes them past the now 3-4 Usos who were led by a great come back game from Andrew Luck, though he still looked bad in that game, he managed a good 25pts. That weasn't enough to overcome the 0 from Dorial-Green Beckham.

The Standings

We have some movement in the standings this week, the big surprise being in the wildcard spots where losses for the Merrick teams sees them fall OUT of the Wildcard hunt. Hammers would currently rank 5th, Usos 6th, and then go through the Merrick Division list.

Playoffs Now

Naenae Tegal (HC) vs Belgian Waffles (WC2)

Rammtallica Billikids (MC) vs Swarlos Rodriguez (WC1)

Just to show me tied for the wooden spoon. 

Top Players - By Position

I've added the second 10 list of QBs purely as a showing of how many points ALL QBs seem to score, the 21st best QB is Josh McCown who is scoring 14.3pts per game...only 7 RBs are currently beat that.Midas Whale now has the top 2 QBs on a per week score, while Hammers & Billikids both have two of the top guys as well. The Gronk You Tour is leading Brady to be WAAAY over everyone else.

Seriously, Devonta Freeman is on target for the highest EVER fantasy season, he is currently beating Forte #2 by 8pts per game, that is equivalent to the 30th best RB in the league right now. Jamaal Charles has only just dropped outside the top 10 (His is points per KC game)

Past that the Waffles now have 3 Players in the top 10, Tegal & Billikids have 2 each and Usos, Rodriguez & Hammers with 1 a p[ieces, if you remove the suspended games from L.Bell he is averaging 18pts per game for 2nd overall. 

Hopkins & Julio are in an absolute scrap. One of them will enmd the season as the #1 WR, and the other will be forgotten. Tegals fdomination at WR is slowly falling off as Fitz & Edelman are now being caught by Allen & Marshall amongst others. Antonio Brown is being killed by the lack of Big Ben so he will be hoping he is back this week. Sanders is slowly starting to fall off a bit as well, while Landry, Cooper & Megatron look to be slowly moving back up the table.

Gronk and then a bunch of others

Broncos and a bunch of others

Even Ghost Kow not clearing out this season

I just got awards thru Week 6 done, but now SOOOOOOO angry at Gallop I can't actually finish anything brain fried ARGH!!!! Will try to complete at home tonight :)

Excited that the Lions fired their head and offence coaches before their trip to London this weekend - looking forward to Abdullah on the ground, and Megatron through the air all day long.

Gary Barnidge is up for trade if anyone is looking for a Top 2 TE :D

Huge Night tonight as the Patriots take on the Dolphins, I actually think this could be one of the best Thursday Night games in a long time.

Fins actually look good now, and the Patriots are on the Gronk You Tour.
