I've really got to stop looking at the scores. Been playing jump rope with the line all day. 

Currently #248, .2 above the line. Lots of ball left to be played.

Same here, only good news is I have quite a few guys left.

Wilson minus 23.3

Agholor, Ertz, Graham minus 5.3, 5.4 for the 2 flex spots and minus 18.6 for the tight end spot if they get that much,

Walsh minus 17.6

Eagles D minus 15

Hoping I can gain about 20 to 30 points.

 
Well I am 60 points behind the cut right now lol.  I do have LeVeon replacing a 0, as well as Ajayi, P. Richardson, Ertz and Graham possibly replacing some very low flex and TE scores.  Also have Walsh going but I doubt he tops Zuerleins 17.7.  So there is a path to advancing even if it is highly unlikely at this point.  

 
Ugh...cut line jumped a ton this afternoon.  Sitting at 156.3, only 8 above the cut.  My remaining guys:

Ertz -9
Big Ben - 18
Walsh -3
Martavis -9

Might not move at all, but hoping I can get another 15-20 pts (5-7 from Ben, 5-7 from Ertz, 5-7 from Walsh) and that might be enough.

213, less than 4 points up. Graham or Ertz - 0, Richardson - 11.7

With the Steelers playing MNF, I'm guessing the line will move a lot.

 
AGHOLOR!!!

About 22 up on the cutline, Graham is counting, Agholor is counting, Wilson is less than 4 points from counting.

 
Cut went up about 9 points after this game.  Not looking good with Ertz getting knocked out.

Less than 4 points above cut so will need Big Ben to put up close to 30 or Martavis to put up 20 to have any shot.

Ugh....

Other than Bell, I'm surprised how low the Steeler ownership numbers are. I'm sure it will move more than 4, but it may not be a huge jump.

130 have Bell.  Suspect he'll count for most after 9.3 points.

Yeah, Bell is probably the key to the line. 

Antonio, green and mixon are on fewer than 70 teams, about 200 have the QBs. Even assuming some teams have those in some combo, and some are already in the top 150, if tonight is a high scoring game the line will move a lot. 

Here's hoping for a 3-0 Bengals win :suds:

Curious though, why 9.3?

Hunt's score.

 
Damn, hate getting knocked out the final week but unless Dalton has the game of his life, I’m dunzo. 10 points behind the cut with only Dalton remaining. 

 
Sitting at 53rd overall, 185.5 points. Good luck to everyone tonight. Also - for anyone that has made it to the final round, what does the winner usually have for a total score Weeks 14-16?

Not sure how much to sweat tonight. I'm 2.55 below the cut with Bell (-3.60) and Ben (-19.80).

I would assume with a normal Bell game I would advance?

Last year was a big down year.  Better plan on 200+  week to get a sniff at any really prize.

eta - 650 is what it usually takes to get there.

I've had a couple 3-week stretches in the 580's this year, but haven't been remotely close to 650.

 
Um, even crazier. One team with Boswell finished 0.45 points behind the cutoff. If the offsides penalty doesn't happen and the FG is 5 yards longer, he'd be in by 0.05 points and I'd be out. 

And I was initially pissed about the penalty since I figured he was definitely making it then.

These late Steelers games give me way too much "excitement" as it stands for this contest, but once again the Antonio Brown/Le'Veon Bell combo bails me out again. So pumped to repeat in the top 250. Good luck to the remaining survivors.....

 
gianmarco said:
Holy cow... I'm the cutoff. 165 points, #249 (same as 250). That 3 yard pass just before the FG for Big Ben got me there.

Unreal.

Last 3 minutes of the game I kept going from 248 to 252.  Back and forth like 4-5 times.

Ruh roh. Contest page shows cut off at 165.10. Hope that's you!

Nope. 2 staff members made it, they don't count, so I'm now 251.
Click to expand...
Ah, didn't realize the staff was included in rankings. Hadn't really looked at the rankings all year.

Really doubt my team makes much noise here, Stafford and Mariota just haven't done enough and the highest scoring position. I'm decent elsewhere but haven't had any huge weeks.

 
Hunt, despite being a non-factor since early-season, is on 225 rosters. So he has to be the guy most likely to be on the winning roster just by simple probability.

What player(s), excluding Hunt, is (are) most likely to be on the winning roster and why?
