Done at 127.5. That's higher than the final cutline has been for 5 out of 8 weeks so far this year. Really hope we get some low scores tonight and tomorrow!

I'm definitely sweating. I'm at 119.5, but almost all my players have gone, and not much room for improvement. Got Tre Tucker (-6.1), Cam Little (-10.6), and KC Def (-10). Need another 40 burger from Tucker! Really bad week to get a 0 from Odunze. If I hadn't gotten some last minute...

Well, I survived a surprise dud from Bijan, making this the only week thus far (aside from his week 5 bye), that I didn't use him. Thankfully, we have signs of life from Chase Brown!!! I certainly won't survive a dud from Bijan week 10 while Brown is on a bye though. Really regretting being...

I literally could not have scripted this Packers-Steelers game any better for my contest team. Kraft going nuts, 2 TDs for Love, and up over 150 now after Boswell's 3rd 50+ yard field goal, on to the next week!!!

I'm sweating, currently at 90.9 compared to a cut of 107.5. I get all of Love and Boswell, and then Kraft (-8.4) and KC Def (-1). I think I need Love and Boswell to combine for at least 30 to have a shot.

Oof, not much out of Keenan Allen and Hock to start thr week...

Week 8 byes shouldn't be too bad for me, though I'll only have 1 QB (Love @ Steelers) and 1 kicker (Boswell), so I'm stuck with whatever they give me. Only other player I'm missing is Tre Tucker, so hopefully having a nearly full complement of skill players will carry me through even if Love or...

As with many of you, I was so excited to see signs of life from Chase Brown. I know it wasn't a huge score, but Flacco throwing the ball clearly opened up the offense and forced the defense to give up more in the run game. Hopefully Chase hits pay dirt soon and starts contributing scores in...

So far I've used 20/21 players, only player yet to contribute is Keaton Mitchell, so that's only $4. Bijan and Tyler Warren are the only ones who have counted 5 times, and Bijan had a bye in there. I think it's a good sign that I'm not overly dependent on too many individual players (but if...

Chase Brown is my only non-zero point RB right now (others are Braelon Allen, Nick Chubb, and Keaton MItchell), so he will definitely count for me too. I need Bijan to bail me out tonight.

Man, I get how fantasy scoring works, but wild to me that KC defense played so great and only got 1 point in this contest.

I'm sweating a bit, after getting duds from Sutton, Ridley, Egbuka, and Keenan Allen. REALLY need a big game from Odunze and Bijan. 101.65 with Goff (-20.55), Bijan (-0.0), Odunze (-5.7), and ATL and KC (-0.0).

I saw that Goff had a sweet matchup with Cincy in week 5, and paired him with Love instead of Caleb. Definitely made me more comfortable with going 2 QB.

I couldn't find any bargains at RB that I liked. I felt like I needed 2 workhorse, so I shelled out for Bijan and Chase Brown. Brown obviously has been a disappointment, and I think I've used Nick Chubb more than Brown, but I think Bijan has been worth it so far. Also really disappointed in...

Looks like my gambit to load up on week 5 byes looks like it paid off! I'm sitting at 145.6, and I still get all of KC defense and Cam Little. Goff had a good game as expected against Cincy. Chase Brown and Chubb did just enough with Bijan on bye. Egbuka, Sutton did their thing, and Ridley...
