First time in a couple of years that I haven't submitted a lineup and then forgot about it until late season only find out I was eliminated early on when I never bothered to really try to set a lineup based on latest news... Been solid but unspecatular in the first couple weeks... Thought I was the same here until afternoon players laid an egg. At 157ish with Ryan -15.9, Sanu - 10.5 and Bryant -7.2. Didn't realize I had 3 falcons on my team until now. Oof. Technically 4 as I have their defense too! They are -21 so not likely a factor.

I have to assume that 6000 people won't be passing me tonight.... right?

Lol, I have Coleman on my team also. How did I end up with 5 falcons on my team. I'm not even close to a fan of the team. Probably going to prove to be a problem at some point.
JamieMurphy
Footballguy
Cut line is now at 144.5 at halftime, anyone who scored in the 160's should be feeling pretty good right now.
Ignoratio Elenchi's site has cut line at 149.35 this morning.........I'm sitting right on it. We'll see if it holds up.
QuizGuy66
Footballguy
Looks like FBG has posted week 3 standings and that is exactly where the number fell.
Sure enough, I see you in the very last spot above the cut line.

Not much mention of Eifert hopefully playing this week. I went w/ him thinking that of all the "late debuting" players he would be the lowest owned, but I never thought there would be less than 130 of us heading into week 4. I'm optimistic he can return to form by mid-season.
I need some serious help at TE (did a good job at picking 5 that aren't doing much of anything) but otherwise like my team so far.

This Keenan Allen owner is somehow still alive even though he was my most expensive WR.
Tennessee_ATO
Footballguy
This Gordon news has to hurt quite a few teams. I avoided the guy b/c I figured the risk of another positive test was too high. I didn't see this coming tho. Hopefully he can get everything figured out for himself, but man this has to be a kick in the groin for his owners in this contest.
Caesar
Footballguy
Ditto. Not just most expensive WR, but most expensive player overall. 2nd WR is Donte. Happy to have Marvin Jones keeping me rolling. I expect it to come crashing down anytime. Let's just say Tyler Boyd counted for me last week... as my 2nd receiver.
Rhythmdoctor
Footballguy
Same here. He was also my most expensive player. last two weeks I've beat cut by 3 and 5 points respectively.
Caesar
Footballguy
that makes me feel lucky. have beat the cut by at least 15 every week. Stafford to Marvin was a key stack first three weeks. If I'm not out before, I expect to be done the first week they play Minnesota.
Just checked the schedule. its week 9. the same week my other QB (Dalton) is on bye. well, at least I have a target to shoot for.

My season will be over when week 8 hits if not before.
I've lost both Danny Woodhead and Ameer Abdullah. I'm left with semi starters Theo Riddick, Charles Simms and recently hurt Rashad Jennings and then some scrubs who need injuries to get in the game, and on to that Josh Gordon is now most likely out for the year and come week 8 I lose the following players:

Odell Beckham Jr, Jarvis Landry, Rashad Jennings, Orleans Darkwa, Javorius "Buck" Allen, Will Tye, Jesse James and Giants defense.
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

You guys surviving without the $23 Keanan Allen is cool, but at least he scored in week 1. I feel lucky to be one of 14 teams still alive (from 65 at the start) with 0 points so far from Brady, L Bell, and Gronkowski, who combined cost $72, over 3x as much as Allen. I've also beaten the cut by at least 15 every week, and have been the highest scoring of those 14 teams.
If I survive this week with no QB (Wentz on a bye, Brady still out), I like my chances, with some good sleepers mixed in with studs. Bell and Gronk back this week should help...

This was my first cut at a roster, the day before the season, so I hope that method works out -- I'll need luck with health...

Yep -- Kickers are hit and miss game by game, and these ones were all cheap, for $2-3 each. The two TE's are two of the best going forward -- hopefully they can both count most weeks...
JamieMurphy
Footballguy
I usually load up on TEs because they have the potential to score the most with 1.5 ppr. Interested to see how it pans out for you, good luck!
Ahmad Rashad
Footballguy
Yeah, if I had more time, I probably would have gone with at least 3-5 TE's, but it was just my first cut to get a roster in under the wire. I've been lucky to survive with only 1 $8 TE so far.
I think the tendency, at least for me, is to start with a smaller roster, and expand it with more iterations and research, but this year I had very little time for research and draft prep...
Caesar
Footballguy
Get through this week and avoid injury, and I like your chances... both of those are possible. Good luck. You won't get any competition from me!

This may have been addressed already, but if Julian Edelman were to log any passing yards today, would those count in the contest scoring?
SeniorVBDStudent
Footballguy
I see nothing in the rules precluding awarding such points to the Kent State phenom....
The only thing relevant I see is....
Player Scoring (QB, RB, WR, TE)
Passing TDs = 4 points
Interceptions Thrown = -1 points
Rushing TD = 6 points
Receiving TD = 6 points
Passing Yardage = .05 points per yard
Rushing Yardage = .10 points per yard
Receiving Yardage = .10 points per yard
Receptions for RB = 1.0 points
Receptions for WR = 1.0 points
Receptions for TE = 1.5 points
No points scored for 2 point conversions
Action (QB, RB, WR, TE)
All offensive players will receive points if they score a TD, whether by punt/kickoff return, playing defense, from a fumble recovery, etc.

Eventually--any time there's a strange starting time for a game it screws up his app and he has to go in and adjust it.

Sheesh. I have Ryan but not Julio. Still a monster week from my team. When Philly Brown finds the endzone for you, you know things are going well.

Inexplicably, after barely surviving the week 1 cut (I'd already said my goodbyes), I'm still in this thing. This, despite
Losing RGIII and having to rely solely on T-Mobile until Brady's return.
Having Tim Hightower and Davonte Booker to go with D Murray and Jeremy Hill until L Bell's return.
Going only with Nick Folk as my PK, as I missed the deadline by minutes to replace R Gould and T Coons.
Sitting on 163 and change right now with some bit players going in the 4:00 games, but Antonio Brown and Leveon Bell - 7.10 and -7.60 for the night.
While none of my players share a bye with anyone else at his position, my lack of depth will probably hurt me in weeks 8-10, when I'm back to not being able to back up Bell and Brady with more than one guy.

Topped 210 in my best week thus far. Still a chance to push that score up, but unlikely. I've got Brady coming back next week, but w/ Ryan and Stafford he doesn't look to be that much of an addition other than bye weeks. My RB situation still sucks, but right now it hasn't been fatal.

Hope 150 is good enough this week. My team looked rough this week.

143 with Diggs (-6.1) 
. About 6.5 above the current cutline.
I at least want one shot with Brady before I'm eliminated in short order
