    Week 6 Suicide Pool Strategy

    Didn't see a thread on this yet, sorry if I missed it. Looks like there are a lot of easy wins this week if you're the type that just wants to play it safe. GB home vs Det, Pit home vs Cle, NYJ home vs Bills are all divisional matchups but look lopsided on paper at least. Philly's traveling...

    An interesting thing happened in the NYG-OAK game

    With Carr coming in to replace Eli before the half, three different #1 overall draft picks have played QB in this game - Eli Manning, David Carr, and Jamarcus Russell. IIRC this happened a couple years ago when the Panthers played the Colts, also involving Carr and a Manning. Carr came in to...

    Looking for conditional probability of making playoffs

    I thought I saw this here a while back but I can't find it. If anyone has a link to something here or another site that has these probabilities it would be greatly appreciated. If that can't be found, maybe someone knows a simple way to aggregate the relevant numbers, and then I could do the...

    McCarthy takes safety rather than face 1st and goal

    Rodgers tackled in his own end zone, fumbles the ball at the one and it's recovered by Vikings. Ruled on the field as a fumble, which would give Minnesota first and goal at about the 1 yard line with a 14 point lead and about 7 and a half minutes left in the 4th quarter. McCarthy challenges...

    How high do you bump Holmes if you haven't drafted yet,

    That may sounds stupid to many of you, but them's the rules by which the RotoBowl operates. I'm participating in the live Atlantic City draft tomorrow, and any players from last night's game can be drafted and inserted into your week one starting lineup. It's fairly standard PPR scoring, so...

    Stats accumulated on 2-point conversions...

    Last night the Chargers stopped a two-point conversion attempt with a sack. IIRC, they also stopped another one with an interception. These stats were not recorded as official and were therefore not scored in fantasy on Sportsline. I believe this is correct - as I understand it, none of the...

    Turner vs Norwood

    How exactly was it decided that Michael Turner is going to be so much more valuable than Jerious Norwood this season? Why exactly is he slated to be the starter in Atlanta, and Norwood is once again relegated to a smallish supporting role? Turner's ADP is around RB19 (38th overall), while...

    Why isn't there a Wikipedia entry for footballguys?

    So, I think this place is big enough that it warrants its own wikipedia entry. Who's with me? I think it's a travesty that a search for Joe Bryant returns only this. Let's start an outline of what information it should include - GO!

    What are the rules for injury reporting in the NFL?

    I seem to remember there being a thread about the new rules for injury reporting this year, but I couldn't find anything. Anyway, one of my leagues uses the official NFL injury reports to determine if a fantasy player can be put on the IR. Because of the timing of our waivers, this is becoming...

    Draft Software

    I have an inFocus projector at my disposal for my upcoming draft and we were thinking of using software for the draft board, as opposed to the old stickers. Has anyone done this before, and do you have suggestions for what to use? Somebody mentioned fandraft.com, and that looks ok, I was just...

    What would be the Perfect League?

    * I searched for something like this and didn't find anything, sorry if it's a repeat... * If you wanted to set up a brand new league right now that was an ideal mix of competitive, simple, fair for everyone involved, and fun every year what would it be? Here are some parameters to consider...

    How valuable do QB's become...

    Blind Bidding Setup Question

    We're trying blind bidding for free agents in my league for the first time this year, and I was wondering how I should set it up. As commish I can set up: Max amount owners can spend for the whole season Minimum bid amount (and what the increments should be) What is a good number for these...

    Looking for a good bit of trivia...

    I'm looking for some good football trivia questions. Something a little unexpected, not just like "Who was the NFL leading rusher in 1998?" (unless the answer was a kicker or something equally surprising!) Also, the more offbeat the better - ideally it's something they could figure out, but...
