Especially when my guys have been underperforming all year and i've only been winning by sheer luck in my weekly matchups.
Your team is very strong. Probably the strongest team in the league, so adding to that lead helps tremendously, from my end. When we drafted i was very happy with my team. Then the injuries started and i was forced to start making trades out the wazoo. Now i'm just hoping that someone, anyone, other than Hurts can put up some solid consistent numbers.
Mixon had a big night for me.
I won't say I have the strongest team in the league, but I will say it's the best team I've ever had in this league. Somebody said picking 7th would be lucky for me. It was. I got a WR in Round One in Jefferson. I took Josh Allen in Round Two because he puts up Fantasy Points each year. and my teams haven't. Finally in Round Three I took a RB and Joe Mixon was still there. In Round Four I got WR- Devonte Smith, and in Round Five I got RB- Montgomery. Bad picks in 6 and 7, especially Dallas Defense. However in Round 8 RB-Chase Brown and in Round Nine WR- Jayden Reed. The rest of draft not so good, but 7 good draft picks. I had some luck with Free Agency. So this is the best team I've ever had, to get Jefferson, Josh Allen, Joe Mixon in the first 3 rounds.
That said, whoever gets hot will win the play-offs in this League. I'll just be happy if I make play-offs after being a last place team. I also said beware of Ocho Cinco team, and he pulled off a win this week. I've been in last, and you get mad in last, and you want to beat some top teams, and Ocho just did. He's probably now thinking if he can win 2 games, he can win 5 games and end on a winning streak. All 12 teams are Tough Teams.
Your team Made You Cry is still in First Place to get a Bye Week in play-offs, which would be nice, considering Round One in this years play-offs is going to be rough, all tough teams.

Week 12 has arrived. I have my starting QB, RB, two WRs, and TE on bye week. Kermit's Nose Kandy might be getting a free win this week.

GG.
Speaking of putting up fantasy points...every week it seems, we have multiple teams putting up 130+ and here i am not even hitting 115 in any single game this year.

Because of byes, i threw Chubb in both my work leagues. Worked out pretty well this time.

I was texting with a lifelong friend of mine from Ohio last night. She's a lifelong Browns fan. I told her that I thought that Chubb was going to score. His knee injury happened at home against Pitt last season. The game script was leaning heavily in his favor.
Wtbs, it's FF, so of course I "chose poorly".

A little side note:
Something is off about defensive scoring. Pitt had 2 fumble recoveries, a pick and a sack, give up 24 pts and they only score 7 pts?
I have them in my nfl.com league and they scored 10 there.

I know. Fun times. I'm waiting to see if i chose poorly again. I was listening to pregame on the way home from the gym last night and they were talking up the Pitt run game big time, talking about how much the Browns give up on the ground and i gave serious consideration to putting Warren in, instead of Rashaad White. I withstood the urge but then he had a decent game. Now i have to wait for White to see if i rue the day again...
