Hi there. I have my spot as well.
Since Harley plays Kevin and Mrs. Molitor plays Tecmo, it is impossible that five teams overtake mine.
Even when yahoo apparently does not recognize that.

The things I do to try to win. I find myself benching Bills Allen again, last week Patriots, this week Tampa. Also benching Raiders Carr against rival Chiefs. I'm starting and rooting for Big Ben against Vikings poor pass defense. I never thought it would come to this, me rooting for Steelers Big Ben to have a good game. The things I do to try to make the Fantasy Play-Offs. My rooting for Steelers will be an all time low for me in any form of Fantasy Sports ever.

No fantasy victory would be worth it ever.

Classic case of overthinking things.
Drafted Josh Allen in round 2 for these kind of weeks but instead you stoop so low as to go with the Fat boy.
Gonna be hilarious if this move cost him a playoff spot, and it would be well deserved after rooting for Ben.

Uh oh kev. Looks like you've raised some eyebrows. If it were me, I'd go with Temporary Insanity man. You don't joke like that, one year someone drafted Antonio Brown first round, and he was almost ran out of the League. Watch that Squealers stuff buddy.

Loved the game. Steelers lose, and K.J. Osborn scores 15.80...totally unexpected. I'm just at a loss right now.

I turned the game off in the 3rd quarter. I got smoked, I figured. Friday morning I see Big Ben put up a lot of garbage time points. I'll take the garbage time points. Somehow he went from no points to 25.82 points. Plus Steelers lost which helps Bengals. I figured he got almost no points, because there was no blocking as Big Ben was getting sacked as soon as ball was snapped. They must have fell so far behind they just started throwing it every play. He went from zero to 300 yards passing and 3 touchdowns. I was hoping for something 20 points or more, so of course I'll take 25.82 points. I turned game off and fell asleep thinking he put up around zero points, and that would have been an early loss for me.
So a surprise this morning to see 25.82 points by the QB. I haven't lost this week early at all. Glad the Steelers lost. The no defense and the no O Line and Big Ben retiring, Steelers are in the position Bengals were. Steelers need a complete rebuild, and they may have some 2 or 3 win seasons because complete rebuilds take time. Steelers will have to draft a QB of the future, rebuild their O Line and fix a terrible defense. I wouldn't mind seeing Steelers the doormats of the AFC North a while. Boy, their defense and O Line stink. Steelers have major problems and we saw with Bengals, you can't draft everybody in one year, it takes a few drafts. They need to draft a QB in round 1, so fixing these other problems will be next to impossible early on, they are in for a couple of rough years no matter how you look at it. Bengals have been there, so I don't feel sorry Steelers are looking at years of rebuild.
Again, the reason I benched Josh Allen last 2 weeks is The Patriots Defense, and The Super Bowl Tampa in Tampa game. I'll start Allen again, but these are 2 Defensive Games back to back. As for using a Steeler, others on here have Steelers on their rosters all year long. I only used him one game, and hated using him the one game. There are some who are happy they have Browns or Ravens players, which is just as bad. But we learn in Fantasy Sports not to have too many from the same team, so you really can't go with all Bengals or Reds. It was someone on this site who told me when I started Fantasy a couple years ago, to never draft all Bengals or all Reds, that you want players from different teams. So many on here have Steelers, Browns and Ravens on their rosters every week. It would be impossible to draft all The Bengals, and it would kill you on Bye Week. Just as it would be impossible to draft all the Reds, you couldn't do it if you wanted to.

Good NFL night for me. The Steelers lost, but I also got 23 points out of their RB. This is a big week for our league and playoff spots. It should be fun to watch.
Edit: Hot take, I'm tempted to bench Lamar against the Browns in favor of Hill against the Jets. Uh oh. This goes against my mantra of ride with your high draft picks.

Not sure how bad it is but Lamar just got injured so might work out.
