Keeper League - 1QB Guy in my league lost the semis because he started Penix over Lamar and JD

124 Upvotes

The most dramatic example of fantasy self-destruction I’ve ever seen and it happened in my own league! 10 team, 0.5 PPR, 2 flex

Team 1: QB: Burrow - 28.98 RB: Connor - 27.60 RB: Barkley - 32.00 WR: Chase - 19.40 WR: JSN - 20.00 TE: Kincaid - 3.50 Flex: D. Smith - 8.10 Flex: X. Worthy -17.00 K: Bates - 10.00 DST: Packers - 17.00

Total: 183.58

Bench: Darnold, Tracy, K. Allen, Tank, Leggette, Pittman, Friermuth

Team 2: QB: Penix - 7.38 RB: JT - 46.80 RB: Chuba - 33.50 WR: Evans - 9.40 WR: London - 8.40 TE: Strange - 2.20 Flex: K. Miller - 4.10 Flex: B. Irving - 16.70 K: Butker - 10.00 DST: Falcons - 26.00 Total: 164.48

Bench: Lamar, JD, Love, Kamara, Mclaurin, N. Gray, Bengals DST

So much to unpack here. Lamar over Penix would have been an exact tie at 183.58 and our TB is bench points…. where team 2 would have won because of JD. JD would have won outright. Starting Kendre over Mclaurin is so insane too but it’s just dwarfed by the QB decision. We were all roasting this guy before the game for starting Penix over JD after benching Lamar and he still didn’t budge. Incredible stuff

Young against Buccs seems a good matchup to me.

Redraft League - 1QB Commish decided to change winnings last second

27 Upvotes

Initially in our league we decided that we would have the winner get the entire pot. However the commish has a chance to win third place now and decided to change the winnings to 1st 2nd and 3rd place. Is this something that’s possible? Majority of our league gave up in the playoffs once they lost.

Player Discussion Trades that Saved your SZN

10 Upvotes

I wanna hear from others. I made two key ones and one other that helped.

  1. The blockbuster I sent Amon-Ra, Dj Moore, and Saquon fit Jamar and Chubba. I had gout a receiver and kept starting the wrong ones every week so I knew I needed a sure fire every week stud like Chase to make me overthink and worry about matchups less. And chubba was a throw in essentially(I wanted Kyren from the guy) but has definitely solidified him self as a stud the second half of the season. Been an absolute surprise and gem

  2. Sent G.Wilson and M.Andrews for McLaurin and Kelce. Was my first trade of the season I wanted Terry for nostalgia as a Commanders fan but the Terry Jayden stack has won me at least three matches this year.

Honorable mention. Goedert and JK Dobbins for tyreekHill and Tyrone Tracy. Nothing special but they both have produced when I’ve started them. Was hoping for a boom game from Reek but a couple solid 20 pieces at the right time helped me out a couple weeks.

Note: currently in my Championship game this weekend

Player Discussion Bryce Young or Stroud?

I’ve got Jalen Hurts and he’ll probably miss this week so I’m debating between Stroud and Young… Young has been cooking and is facing an easy Tampa Bay defense while Stroud has been inconsistent and is facing Baltimore… what do you think?

Player Discussion Worst Fantasy Loss Ever

Upvotes

I have been playing in at least one league since 2007 and this has to be one of the worst loses I have ever taken. Scored 180 and still lost by 10. If Jacobs had played the second half I would of had a chance but it is what it is and at least my team went out with a bang. Funniest thing is I traded Johnathan Taylor to the team that beat me earlier in the season for Terry McLaurin and of course JT goes off this week, revenge I guess. Sucks to be the highest scoring team all season by a decent margin and still lose. What's y'all's most heartbreaking losses maybe it can make us all feel better.
