The NFL Thread

[Deano]

I will play. I'm not keen on the head to head if it works the same as the league I was part of this year.

I finished 11-2 and the final ended up being one person who was 4-9 vs someone who was 5-8. Kind of pointless building a good team and winning all year if you can do shit for 80% of the season then have 2 or 3 good weeks at the end.

 

[Tony Towner]

I'll play whatever others want to, but would prefer the weekly team selection model we now use to the season long version.

Fair point, it’s something I’ll work on fully and pitch it to you all.

I do think the draft kings needs a thread of it’s own to stop it clogging the nfl thread

I like being able to pick the players every week. I dont do a normal NFL fantasy game

 

[PuntsWolf]

I play money games on DK every week anyway. So I don’t mind what we do as I just import the same team. I don’t season fantasy though either, weekly format much better

Seconded. Although there is a possibility I might join you next season, if I can work out how to do it.

Would agree on the seperate thread, but anyone who likes NFL should play. It's really simple every week you have a budget and need to pick a QB, Defense, TE, 3 WR's, 2 RB's and a wildcard (essentially another WR or RB), it's fun and not taxing

 

[The Bear]

Anyone is welcome, as mentioned it's very simple. Just pick a team within budget every week. That's it.

As for the head to head, if you want to do a separate one James then go ahead and I'll certainly have a go.

Cheers Bear and for those interested the basics of what im suggesting is the standard 4 team nfl divisions and we go head to head randomly picked using draftkings in the same way we have been. Pick your team and highest score wins.

Example.
Twf North week 14
Punts 12-2-0
Bear 8-6-0
James 5-9-0
Tony 4-10-0

Bear 146.23 - Punts 144.21
James 101.20 - Tony 89.20

Obviously there’d be a TWF south but yeah if theres interest to you lot in draft kings i’ll organise it and work on the fixtures

 

[Pompey Wolf]

Yeah I’m up for doing this next season, Tony’s sold it with his promise of ease.

It’s very easy and when you get into it you start studying everything

 

[Pompey Wolf]

I played one a few years ago (on the official site I think) where you started the season with a live draft against other players and then maintained your team through the season, was a pain. A new team each week seems more appealing.

Colts vs the cheifs will be good now the snow has fallen

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Mahomes is just ridiculous. What a talent.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

The Chiefs Offense is wonderful to watch. This could be ANYTHING.

 

[Johnny75]

Mahomes is just ridiculous. What a talent.

Peyton Manning level of talent.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Reminds me of Joe Montana. I can't give higher praise than that.

 

[Alan]

Colts are getting remarkably outcoached at the moment.

 

[Alan]

HUGE play for Indy there.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Massive bonus. But KC are just hammering the offense again as if it didn't happen. I don't think they are going to choke this time.
