Is there an avg UQ so we can see if ours is low or high?
Click to expand...
look at the number next to the UQ. It starts at 1 and goes up to the number of remaining contestants if I recall correctly. If its less than half of the number of teams, it's better than the average. However, it may be better to look at the lower UQ's of the teams in front of you in the power rank. If you don't see many, that's good!

Interesting...Drinen, any way the columns could be made sortable on the FBG's page rather than having to import it into Excel??Just a thought... :thumbup:
 
bump for discussion about today's games.

nice early game plays:

Jets O (Favre, L. Coles, Cotchery)

Warner

Brees

Slaton B2B 20+ games - Continues to be great value

Kevin Walter

I'm sure there are a ton more, but these stood out to me looking through some teams.

I'm feeling pretty comfortable with 145 and Tomlinson, Westbrook (Q), and S. Moss still to play.

 
Big scoring in the early games. The early cutoff value is already over 113. :confused:

Sitting on 173.55 here...G/L to the 7249 joining me in week 5! :excited:

 
Warner, Slaton & Breaston --> over 75 points for $7. I'll take that. With Marshall, Cotch, Smith & Gonzo chipping in, I'm currently at 159+

501 live teams besides yourself have the same value trio (including me). I'd have to say with that output, it will be tough for more than a couple of them to get bumped this week.

Favre wasn't included in the contest so you don't have to worry about him.
 
212.10 on the fantasystar app.

Got Heap -9.9

and Rice -20.2 to go

Looking like a Turk Free week for me :)

But next week, I better look out :goodposting:

-QG

I was trying to figure out why the cut is showing to be so high already, and I think I may have found some of the reason. With CHI, PHI, BAL and PIT as the night games, I think that there will be very little movement going forward. Not a whole lot of player popularity there, so most rosters have likely been pretty well filled out. Add in that there were a lot of high scoring value plays (and some high scoring in general), and I think we could see the cut number stall right around 140 (a 4-ish point rise), even with 2 games yet to go.

198.7 and done here. Was hoping to go 200+ in 3 straight weeks, but came up just short.

 
200 for the third straight week. Hoping I'm not shooting my load too early.

200.05 going into Sunday night with Forte (-14.2).

Also carrying Roethlisberger (-22.65), Gould (-16) and the Jets (-25) but I don't expect to see any movement on those.

180.9 w/ DeSean, Holmes and Philly D to go. I was concerned about this week with some key guys missing (Megatron bye, Shockey injured). Kevin Walter, Slaton (again), Prater, Bills D, and Meachem all came up huge.

See you all next week! :o

 
175 with Philly still ready to roll...I have not scored 200 yet but I keep hitting in that 160-180 range every week, not sure if that is good or not, but being able to survive the 6 team bye weeks is always a good thing. Got over 60 from Schaub and Slaton, that's always nice. The trio of Marshall, StSmith, and Cotchery did very well this week with over 63 between the 3 of them, all over 20 points a piece...I actually got nothing at TE this week with Fasano and Watson on bye weeks, and I don't even know if LJ Smith is playing tonight, but so far so good.

 
All these links should be replacing the original post of this thread to make it useful and easy to find, rather then buried and asked for a million times over the next 10 weeks.

My team is alive but in some serious QB troubles with only Cutler and Ryan still playing (Garcia and Jackson..thank you for nothing)

 
I have Brees, Schaub & Warner at QB.....Schaub won out this week for the first time.

I have yet to break 200, and won't this week thanks to MB3 laying a bit of an egg....I guess its still possible if DeJax blows up.

Glad to see Utecht up and running and Keller contributing...thought I might be getting zeros at TE with Shockey out.

 
180 so far with DeSean's second half still to count. Not a great week with Parker hurt and Bush having a bad week. Luckily my recievers keep scoring.

 
I'm a bit nervous of the prediction this week, but according to the database, we're already up to 143.2.... :unsure:

Kinda scary if this is accurate, as I think this will be one of the highest early season bye week cut scores we've ever seen. I'll have to go through my old spreadsheets to check that tidbit out.

In at 186+, with Eli, Megatron, and five others on bye and Westy out with injury, and a crap game from Reggie Bush. I'll take it! :goodposting:

ETA: Also have Ray Rice -13 going tomorrow night, fwiw.

That's my QB trio as well. What a shame to waste the points on the bench. :goodposting:

why are there numbers with - in front of them. whats the deal with that???

Just means that is the score the remaining person has to beat to raise a score. Such as I have Big Ben on MNF and he needs 9 points to beat Matt ryan so I would put Big Ben (-9)

God im close, im at 145 with only Santonio Holmes on MNF.Slaton, Chris Johnson, Desean Jax, Matt Schaub, you all saved me if i make it. Colston, Mike Nugent; your injuries are extremely painful the next few weeks should i be alive!
