Sitting at 150.05 with Wright -8.7 heading into MNF.

D.Watson showing up again with 36.15 is carrying my squad.

 
How much can we expect this thing to move? I'm 5.9 above the cut but done.
With bears and Vikings?

621 alive teams have Cohen. 825 have diggs. 336 Howard. 609 Rudolph. Over 1000 have Bradford so if he plays and plays well he'll move the needle a bit. Just over 100 have Trubisky so he's almost a nonfactor. 

Current cutoff is 15 points lower than last week but I'd bet the end cutoff isn't above 140. actually with 6250 teams making it you're probably fine. Where do you rank right now? How many teams have to pass you?

Worst case for you would be a lot of Bradford to diggs.

Yea I think close to 6 up on the cut  in this matchup your pretty safe 

 
4.4 below cut and only have Bradford (-0 with Brees on bye). If he plays I could be ok. There is likely a few more people who are counting on Bradford as their only QB this week. 

 
Prediction: every player available in this contest will be on IR by the end of the year except for Kareem Hunt, and Week 13 will end in a 250-way tie.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat.  About six points below the cut with Bradford -0.  Also have Kendall Wright at -7.  Going to be tight this week.

Lol I'm worried because I need Bradford next week. I hope it's just a rust knock off game for him I will cringe on sacks and if he gets rolled up in anyway. 

I avoided the grime reaper on the Injury Reports this Sunday but I'm already down 5 guys and at the moment do byes are totally screwed but week 6 and week 9 are complete and total minefields for me I need almost every players points I do feel week 6 and 9 were heavy byes for a lot of guys. 

Lol and a big shout out to all the Miami pick ups thinking you were the smartest players in the comp taking the week 1 bye over scense of how bad that team was.

 
The strain of carrying all these injured guys looks like it's the end of the line.  DJ, Olsen, Cook and Sturgis weren't enough.  Had to add Parker, Smallwood and Powell this week. With Evans and Hunt having sub-par weeks, I'm 15 points below the cut line. Need Wright and Rudolph (both -3.6 and 6.5) to step up big time.  Probably need at least a combined 35-40 points to stay alive. 

 
I'm in 3 season long leagues, play DFS every week, and will gamble on just about anything. And I couldn't care less about the 2nd half of MNF. The NFL has a problem. And it has nothing to do with the national anthem.

Calcomatic says I'm .15 over the cut....please be right!

Almost 90% survival rate for those of us with the bolded.

Need Marcus back by week 7 (Stafford, not worried this week as the Lions face the saints)

That's kind of crazy because I checked Hunt, Hogan, and Ertz (since those are the only 3 I've got*) and it's 86.88%. Crazy that it would be higher with Parker and Mariota added to the list since Mariota hasn't been great and Parker just had a down week.

*And yet I was only four points above the cut  :doh: in the third week with the top 3 survival rates of the top 10 most owned players. Hoping the return of Dougie helps fend off the turk better in the coming weeks.

That's almost 90. The group bolded was 87.5%

 
Can't believe a 0.3 difference for one guy would move the entire cut line by the same amount.
Actually, I can't either, especially when it's on a 2 point total (i.e, it would require a lot of teams to have needed to count his 2 point score).  But if I'm grabbing at straws here....I'd be happy if it moved the cut only half of that (still unlikely, I know).

 
NFL.com box score says Cohen had 1 catch and 7 net yards, but the Official Standings show him as scoring 2 points, not 1.7.  Could that be the difference?
yeah looking at nfl.com box score it is different from yahooooooo's boxscore.  it looks like the difference is in the final play.  Yahoo has Cohen gaining 2 yards after Wheaton lateraled to him.  NFL.com has Cohen losing 3 yards after the lateral.  I didn't see the final play so I don't know which is correct.
