A very strong last week for me, and a poor one from Tony hands me the title

Cheers all for playing. I'll do it again next season. Hopefully a few more will join in too.

 

[PuntsWolf]

I liked it, nice one Bear! Managed to avoid the wooden spoon so I’m happy

 

[darlowolf64]

Missing that last week really shafted me.

Great comp Nick, really enjoyed it

I’ll probably join in next year, unless we could get a proper forum fantasy league going with a draft before the season?

 

[Tony Towner]

Thanks Bear, really enjoyed that even if I did bottle it at the end. Definitely in next year

 

[The Bear]

Personally I like the weekly format. A draft would take too much faffing I reckon. Plus less than 10 players and every team is too strong any way.

 

[Tony Towner]

This year's format was great. Maybe try and get the full week in with Thursday games? The issue is although the site lets you swap around all week up until the last minute, if you aren't in, you aren't in. Loved it though and we have to get Alan in!

 

[The Bear]

Yes I'll definitely do the full week Thu-Mon next year. People will just have to stay on top of it and remember. I do that any way with my other mates.

 

[Johnny75]

Cracking Bear, really enjoyed the format.

 

[Johnny75]

Jags have been good first half but the Patriots gave been dominant 2nd half, without Gronk too.

 

[PuntsWolf]

NE do it again. Their team isn’t even that good this year. Guess it must be coaching and mentality

 

[The Bear]

They always seem to get the little things go their way to keep them in with a shot of winning it.

The Jags delay of game just before half time was a real killer as the Pats went up the field and scored. Then the fumble and blown whistle to stop Jack running it back was a bit of a sickener for them too.

I had the Jags +9 though, so at least I covered the spread!

Off to bed now but I hope the Vikings make it for the SB in their home stadium.

 

[darlowolf64]

I really hate the Pats...bloody typical. I reckon we need the Vikings to win the NFC Championship as I think of them and the Eagles, they are best placed to turn the Cheatriots over

 

[Alan]

I think the Jags were our last hope. Neither Minnesota or Philadelphia is going to beat New England, IMO. They're both too orthodox.

 

[Carrotdude]

Started well for the Vikes, but that last Philly drive was so easy, I think they’ll win

 

[Alan]

Wentz who?

Foles is on fire at the minute.

 

[Tony Towner]

Despite it being the bloody Pats again I've decided I'm going to watch the Superbowl...

Nick Foles, I'm sorry.

If the D can get after Brady I'm hoping it'll be the game where his age catches up with him. If it were at the Linc I'd be confident, in Minneapolis less so.

 

[The Bear]

I'm om the fence whether I can be arsed to watch it or not. It'd mean booking a day off work, and I'm not sure I'm that fussed given the two teams and the almost inevitable outcome.
