Don't think there was a worse 1st round pick in fantasy this year than me taking Odel Beckham. He's been fucking shite, average around 8ppg. 

Take away that one big 23pt game and its even bloody worse

I took David Johnson.

And JuJu Smith Schuster was my second round pick.

 

Still had faint play off hopes going into this week against Clems Clams, but totally Browned it up in a shocking performance.

The two 49ers defeats have been brutally close.

 

Yeah, plus Baltimore had home field advantage. If the 49'ers meet the Ravens in the Superbowl in Miami I reckon the 49'ers will win. Baltimore are hitting form with their defence at the right time, but it wasn't that long ago that they were leaking points due to one or two injuries. 49'ers have also had injured players to deal with but seem to have better depth in dealing with it. It'll be an interesting final should it work out that way, especially after a bruising play off schedule that could see the 49'ers having a much easier route to make the Superbowl. Huge game again though next week against the Saints, one which will probably sort out who has home field advantage throughout the NFL side of playoffs.

Dropped the Ravens defense today as they play the 49ers. Play Caroline playing a terrible Redskins

 

This seasons been a fucking disaster

Odel Beckham and Devon ta Freeman really can go fuck tbemselves

 

I had to have a chuckle when I noticed that yesterday, kind of summed up your season. 
 

[Lee909]

Ok

 

One more week to go befire the fantasy playoffs. Just a quick note that next year I will shift the league from the NFL own league to ESPN. We have had a few issues over the past 3 years from drafts stalling mid draft, drafts not setting correctly and having to be redone. This year's scoring fuck up and the leagues 'help email' being dismisive and fucking useless. 

 

I've used ESPN in the past and it's a piece of piss to use. I'll let everyone know the details and confirm who's in etc early(around July) to set up the draft at the normal late August. Everything else will stay the same in terms of scoring and rosters etc. 

 

 

If there is anyone interests in a revamp of the dynasty league I'll get that up and running again

[Lee909]

Reckon Seattke will be the team in the NFC over the next few years if they can draft to fill the weak spots. The receiver's they have with Wilson is nightmare match up. DJ Metcalf will be near unstoppable at times.

I'll definitely be up for playing again next season.

But that was fucking sweet as. Jimmy G you absolute dreamboat

The Chiefs are totally fucking this up against the Patriots.

Punt blocked leading to a touchdown, fumble when driving for a game sealing score.  The jammy twats will win now for sure.

The officiating in this was as bad as I have ever seen. Ansolutely unreal bad.

It's nice to see a decision go against the Patriots for once though even though they were terrible calls. The NFL has refereeing standards that easily rivals the Premiership.

Really

Dying seconds of a NFC Championship Game.

That one where they ruled him out of bounds to wipe off the TD when it wasn’t even close was a shocker.

There's a desperate need for a sky judge in the NFL. Refs can't keep messing up this badly. It's not like people will stop watching but it creates awful press. It's small time for the richest sports league in the world to have such problems. 

 

On another note I think a Ravens - 49ers Superbowl is pretty much nailed on. Both those teams showed things this week that bode well.

 

Ravens were a bit mediocre on offense but the defense turned ferocious. Conversely, the 9ers defense laid an egg but Jimmy G and the offense stepped up big time. On a neutral field, when Kittle and Sanders are healthy, I think they're pretty much unbeatable.

[Lee909]

Far from unbeatable 

 

The centre of the defensive line is soft. Murray was gnashing them for 9.9 yards a carry. Why Payton didn't use him more is a mystery. They are a great offense but that was a Saints team with there 5th choice LB as the Mike and Anthony brought in off the street two weeks ago. 

A back up LG and a LT who could barely move and back in a walking boot as soon as the game ended. 

 

The Seahawks wouldn't be stupid enough to not run at the li e and wear it down. 

 

 

The NFC can be won by any team on the right day. 

[3 Stacks]

I think when they're fully healthy San Fran are the most complete team by a decent margin. They've outgained the Ravens and Saints in consecutive weeks on the road. They should have home field throughout the playoffs now too. Maybe you can run on them, but you can run on anybody in the NFL on any given day these days. It's a pass defense first league.

 

As long as they don't get gashed by the Falcons or the Rams with their crappy O-line, there's nothing to worry about. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Said pages back that the 49'ers and Ravens could easily meet in the SB. OK, doesn't take a rocket science to work out that they are the most consistent teams in their divisions. The 49'ers have had to face some injury list the second half of the season, they have some depth though and players coming back at the right time. The Ravens defence has gotten better but they are a bit hit and miss at times and if Jackson doesn't fire they will struggle against the better teams. You can never write off the Pats though, plus the Chiefs hitting a bit of nice form. The Seahawks and Saints have a chance of upsetting the 49'ers along the way. 

In all honesty, we are looking at the best Play Offs SB match ups in quite some time. 

[Lee909]

Think you can rule Saints out with latest injury. Davenport out for year and Rankins banged up to. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Congratulations to Clems Clams (Nathan) on beating me to reach the TLW Superbowl.

 

My big game players choose the same weekend in a KO game to all play shite. 

[Lee909]

Well done to everyone who has taken part. One week left for those in the winners and consolation playoff brackets. In a surprise the underdogs have won in all 4 games in the playoff Brackets 

 

The irony that Woo may well end the season as Champion by riding Ben's coat tails.

You're welcome mate. It is what it is, and any given fantasy team can win on the day. You gained two big scores with Jones and the Pats defence which made a huge difference. Good luck in the final, also the same goes to Alex (SnivellingpishWeasels) who also made the final thanks to a superb score from the Viking defence. It has been a good fantasy season and I fully enjoyed my debut.

It's 11°C over here in Germany mate, T-shirt weather for this time of the year. 

[The Midnight Rambler]

First round pick Barkley finally decides to turn up. All the glory goes to Woo. Up the Div 2 massive. 

[TheBitch]

This was my worst ever season, of all the one and a half seasons I’ve been involved in. 

 

Thanks for organising it again Lee. Already looking forward to next season when hopefully I make the draft this time. 

[TheHowieLama]

Who has Josh Gordon?  Time for this fella to pack it in.

 

• 2012: Rookie season with the Cleveland Browns. Caught 50 passes for 805 yards and five touchdowns.
• 2013: Suspended two games for violating the league's policy on substances of abuse. Caught 87 passes for 1,646 yards and nine touchdowns, flashing elite potential. 
• 2014: Suspended 10 games for a failed drug test (marijuana). Catches 24 passes for 307 yards in five games.
• 2015: Suspended the entire season for violating the league's policy on substances of abuse (alcohol).
• 2016: Suspended four games. Ultimately missed the entire season after choosing to enter himself into a rehab facility in September. Remains on the NFL's reserve/suspended by commissioner list for the remainder of the season.
• 2017: Conditionally reinstated by the NFL for the final five games of the season. Catches 18 passes for 335 yards and a touchdown in five games.
• 2018: After one game with the Browns, catching a 17-yard touchdown pass, Gordon is traded to New England. He appears in 11 games with the Pats, catching 40 passes for 720 yards and three touchdowns. The NFL suspends him indefinitely for violating the league's policy on substances of abuse in December.
• 2019: Gordon is reinstated by the NFL in August. He goes on injured reserve in late October with a knee injury and doesn't play for the Patriots again after the team waives him from IR. He signs with Seattle before his latest suspension.
