The NFL Thread

[Tony Towner]

Awful start already with Allen getting crocked

Miller now doesn't make it to the end of the first quarter either. Not going to be my week.

 

[PuntsWolf]

The match ups this week aren’t great. And it’s injury season. Bit of a shit week, particularly with all the game spread out.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Almost a comical touchdown against for the Cowboy shite. Sadly I think down by contact for the Colt defenseman who got the blocked kick, but you never know.

The positives are Seattle will destroy them in the first round of the plays off, Garrett will still be HC and Dak QB. Giants have announced today that Eli will be staying on, so if the Eagles and 'skins can get fit next year that's all good news.

Bears win the North, fantastic season so far

If the Cowboys fix their offensive line they will be challengers, with or without Garrett.

Pains me to say that. Ugh.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Eagles and Skins not quite out of it after wins and a loss for the cowboys.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Ignore me about the eagles. Thought they had beaten the rams.

 

[The Bear]

They did beat the Rams.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Weird BBC website had it as 23-20 to the Rams at six this morning. Now it is 23-30. Hell of a typo as they had updated the table with the Eagles on 6-8 as well.

This is what I use. Google scores basically. But it's good for stats, and links to videos and news reports for each.

 

[Tony Towner]

Just finished watching the game. Offense looked a lot more balanced -only three catches for Ertz, three rushing tds and good Foles showed up.

Dallas only have the Giants and Bucs to play though and have the head to head on the Eagles and league record on the 'Skins so only needing to win one of those still makes them pretty nailed on. The latter two's best chance is winning both their games (one is against each other) and hope the Bears have the bye still to play for and beat the Vikings

I am posting this without looking at the game you guys play on here but my fantasy season has been a joke. I finished the season with an 11-2 record. One of the losses was by 3 yards (0.3 points) I was number 1 seed and went out in the first round of the play offs to a guy who finished 5-8, had a bad week with the Rams only putting up 7 points etc. Another round of the play off games has gone and now we are at the final and the 2 guys in the final finished 5-8 and 4-9. I get that it's partly down to luck picking and you can't do much about players having bad weeks but in that format where is the incentive to win games all season if you can just be average until the last 2-3 weeks of the game.

It's not a normal fantasy draft game Deano so it's nice to have the change. It's just picking a team within a budget (different every week). Points are then allotted for winner down to last, in reverse order (6th gets 1pt and 1st gets 6pts).

Simple stuff, not taxing and doesn't piss you of when you lose to a duff team at this time of year.

I play the mlb and nfl on Yahoo and do enjoy them but I've had a stinker this year in both formats (9th in roto mlb and 3-10 in nfl) so gave up mid season. This is a bit more fun.

We could do a head to head next season with draft kings

Cheers, I might join in then next season.

Yeah you can do a head to head league on there as well.

You're more than welcome Deano.

Just a heads up that this gameweek doesn't start until Sunday 1:20am. No Thursday night game and for some reason they're not including Saturday night's early game.
