What do you guys think about this? We had a guy basically give up on the season and stopped starting a lineup. Should one of the commissioners set his lineup for "competitive balance"? What if that included having to add/drop players? What if someone simply spaced out and left an injured player in his lineup or a player on a bye week?


I've done that a few times. Start the optimal lineup on his behalf. It gets messed up then because that team is basically closed for business when it comes to trade. If it were earlier I'd say try to find a different person to take over the team.

The problem is where do you draw the line between someone giving up or just being lazy. I'm in a league with FF, BMac, and billy. One week I spaced it and started a TE on a bye week and it cost me a win. Should the commissioner be responsible for catching that mistake and starting someone for me? The answer is no imo.

I'm fairly heavily favored this week but I can see the rat fucking coming from a mile away. Barkley, Conner and Moore are all dealing with injuries. He has Cook going against the depleted Bears and Monty against a bad Viking run d.

Herbert starts playoff round week 1 off with an ok game. I could have used a great game. He missed his projected score by one point and I am still favored by 6.

Every one of my players (except for Dallas D) underperformed this week. My opponents have underperformed by more, especially Brady. He still has Cook and Montgomery going tonight and Metcalf tomorrow but I am up 101. I hope that's enough. I would think the Vikings game plan would be to throw the entire day, with Vildor being the best healthy CB.

both Cook and Montgomery didn't perform well. I'm up something like 60 with only Metcalf to go. Last year's Metcalf would have had me still concerned. CBS says I have a 99% chance of winning.

9-6 and on to the semifinals.

What happened to DK Metcalf?

I'm in the money round and that's all I can ask out of a season. I at least win back my entry. A win this week assures me an additional half of our sizable transaction fee pot.

I'm limping into this week. Godwin is out, Connor is back to splitting carries, my stars are playing good defenses. I am #1 in waiver wire so I will get Ronald Jones. I'll start him over Connor but its always inconsistent production from Jones.

Just get me this win.

If I started Miles Sanders over Myles Gaskin I move on to the semis.

After eliminating his kid's confidence twice over, Hawg is probably as good a parent to his kid as Rodgers is a son to his dad.

My main league that I play in for some money I missed the playoffs in.

I am in a league with some teachers at our school and our playoffs started this past week. I lost by less than a point and I thought my year was over, but it is set up for 2 weeks per round in the playoffs. So I still have a shot.

Got some help as his team had covid issues but having said that, they would have had to play extremely well as my team was really good. On to the Championship game!!!

Got bounced in one league by 1.5 points, Justin jackson and Miami defense did me in. Im in the SB in the other league, favored to win.

I had a decent game and would have beaten every team but one this week. Unfortunately I was playing that one team in the playoffs.

9-7

I'm now in the third place game. Still some decent coin to play for and I'll do no worse than break even on the year.

Lost. 4th Place. 9-8

The biggest blunder I can point to is drafting Saquan in the second round. I did a great job of mitigating throughout the regular season but in the playoffs, you need that second rounder to be a lead dog.

The second problem was injuries. I was an WR oriented team. Godwin was out for the playoffs and DJ Moore has been playing with a hamstring problem.

The worst team in the entire playoff group ended up winning the whole thing. Each week, he would have lost to every other team but the one he was playing. That lucky stiff gets the money.

I finished in the money, so that is a good season. I'm underwhelmed. I didn't have the best team but I think I should have finished no worse than third.

I'm up 17 points in the championship game of my Yahoo league, and my opponent has Diontae Johnson going tonight (my whole team has played). I lucked into picking up Devin Singletary yesterday morning or I would have lost already.

Finished 2nd and 3rd with identical teams despite not having a starting quarterback for the playoffs. Would have finished 2nd in both leagues, but I lost by 2 in the semi finals because of the Cowboys blowout and because of a lineup error. Lamar Jackson owes me thousands of dollars.

Champion.

Trailed by 21 points going into the 4pm games. He had amari Cooper and pollard going. I had Rashaad Penny and Mike Williams.

Fantastic ride to the title, won by 8. Thank you rashaad penny.

Got smoked in the super bowl, Burrow and Chase were too much to overcome. The guy had a great team, Kupp and Taylor.
