You should have also picked the Panthers to pay respect.

EDIT: I feel so lucky that Mike321 has the wrong Colts TE. Allen has caught three TD passes in the first half. If Doyle had pulled off that feat, I would only be a few points ahead going into halftime, a lead so small that Luck could surely win the week for Mike. As it stands now, I am 26.2 points ahead, so that's still a safe lead.

Fake edit: My lead might shrink before halftime. Fitztragic...

REAL EDIT: I am so lucky. Doyle (Mike's TE) fumbled the ball inches before the goal line through the endzone. So instead of 12 fantasy points for Mike's QB+TE combo, they get nothing.

All the game I've been like "why can't Doyle be the one making all those TD!"

I thought about changing Allen for Doyle after Allen returned from his injury but I didn't, now I regret it but then again Doyle could have been the one with the 3 TD, you never know in fantasy

After yesterday's late Sunday games I didn't think this could be close. You had three players left, but I led by ~65 points. And your three players included a TE and a K, so not exactly high-scoring positions. But Hauschka had a field day against the Panthers (16 fantasy points) and now the Colts don't even think about running the ball because the Jets pass defense sucks that bad. Luck is already closing in on 30 points and there's still plenty of time left. Had Doyle made that TD before the half, you'd be only 7 points behind now. But even with a 19-point-lead, I don't feel comfortable. Like I said, the Colts don't run the ball and the Jets defense is abysmal; and their offense can barely move the ball, so the Colts have plenty of opportunities to pile up fantasy and real points.

Well at least Luck made our match interesting, now my chances of making it to the playoffs are not looking very good.



                                                                                     

So aside from the people who missed entire weeks, I am in last place.

On a positive note, I am only 4 games from playoffs, so a lot of other people are close to being as terrible as me this year.

Thankfully the Colts remembered that the ball can be run. You needed Doyle to score at least two TDs tonight, but he fell way short. Anyway, it was much closer than I expected it to be.

I had the best score of the entire league this week, by 0.06 points. If Hilton had gained only one additional yard, I would have been screwed.

I wished the fantasy league could provide playoff scenarios, because I have no idea which kind of tie-breakers you need. A win of yours and a loss of Angelus might not even be enough, depending on who else gets to 6-8 next week. You should offer Arkaign a generous trade for Elliott in exchange for giving the week 14 game away.

You must REALLY wanna lose your first playoff matchup lol
