I created a league in MyFBG with the contest scoring and manually loaded my team. Now every week's projections include that league under the Scoring Options dropdown.

Actually Pierce matters even more when everyone has him. When he does well he puts the teams thin at RB at an advantage, when he does poorly it's the reverse. There are so many dynamics in place when you have a high ownership guy like Pierce. For Pierce owners who aren't bye heavy this week, it would have been better for him to poop the bed because while it hurts them a little, it hurts others more.

Hey everyone! I got cut last week, enjoyed lurking on the thread and seeing others obsess about their team as much as I did. I appreciated the math as well. I learned a lot, as this was my 2nd time playing (I missed the deadline twice). First time was fortunate to have jackson and CMC when they were ridiculous so I've had too small of rosters both times now. Hindsight is what it is, but wish I put more thought into kickers and my midrange dollar picks. Cheers!

My "projections" were based on the numbers in your post
though perhaps those were not actual score projections

Today's projections bump me up a couple points (mostly an increase for Stevenson with news that Harris is unlikely to play). Interestingly, both Goedert and Pierce are bumped up by .1, which we leads me to ask "who is bumping their projections after their games, but not increasing them to their actual scores?"

I don’t think want to bump projections after the player has played, because you want to be able to compare pre-game projections to their actual performance. This lets you see the degree to which the projections are valid… or not.
Those were the FBG rankings by position for week 9.

Should have made that clear, my bad.But I would not mind a score of +200!

There's 823 teams who will survive this week. Doesn't leave much room for the rest of us.

I think it’s only 142 teams alive with Mixon isn’t it? 823 started with him week 1
Yea, I just realized that. The formatting of the tool on my phone moved the numbers around. It's only 142, thank goodness.

134 after the early games. I had like 108 at halftime--think Josh Allen scored 3 points in the 2nd half and Stevenson, ARSB and Zay Jones weren't much better. Thank goodness for Hockenson's stretch drive scoring. Still have Eno, Henry and JuJu (-0, 9 (for JuJu), and 12.9) and the AZ D (-5).

How many have fields? He and Kmet were huge today.
when are the extremely unoficial scores normally updated after the 1pm scores? I amtoo lazy to keep track of mine myself yet expect somebody else to do it for me in a timely manner lol

276 have fields...63 have both
Usually updated by now.

Thanks. I have Fields and Mahomes, just need the rest of my roster to hold up. Kmet with a big game on Kittle’s bye was very nice also.

I’m thinking I’ll currently between 140-145 with only a small chance of improving my score (Titans -5) and assuming Andrews doesn’t play. Feeling decently confident that the cut will be around that or lower due to the byes and major injuries.
Anyone think the Monday game won’t move the cut much? With Bateman, Dobbins, and Andrews out, most of the Baltimore scorers besides Lamar weren’t available to choose. Saints have some key injuries out as well but Kamara remains.

Without even nowing the 1pm cut line yet, it's difficult to even imagine what 8pm tonight, or the Monday night game might do with the cut line.
I'm sweating it a little this week. I was out of town for a wedding and just got home. Punching stats into my spreadsheet, I'm looking at the mid 120's but with only a couple players left. I just saw that Arizona got a pick 6, just now!! That puts me a little better shape. Hopefully with 6 teams on bye, the cut line won't be too high in spite of Mixon's 5 TDs. I'd feel a lot better if Fournette would put up some points to replace my 7.40 flex score.

They may have decided that since there are only 2 late games it wasn't worth the effort to run the numbers twice.

I've been out of town, and unable to keep up with the pace of posting here in the thread.
Just had to drop in and note that three of my five RBs were just traded last week.
RB Joe Mixon - $30
RB Aaron Jones - $27
RB Chase Edmonds - $14
RB Nyheim Hines - $13
RB Jeff Wilson - $3
I'm ecstatic for the second chances, as Edmonds had flopped in Miami, and Wilson was torpedoed by the McCaffrey's arrival in SF. Big upgrade in surroundings for Hines as well.
Totally missed my 2nd flex earlier, was at 122.
Now around 140 with Kelce to go against nothing.
Feels safe.

Just wrapping up a week’s vacation in Miami, Key West, and Boca. No laptop here, so I was at the mercy of the scorekeeper. I was like Schroedinger’s cat. Maybe I was still alive,maybe I wasn’t. Tomorrow is getaway day, so my wife turned in early and I made the mistake of opening the box. After starting with 41+ with Pierce and Goedert Saturday , I’m sitting at about 100, getting Lamar -18, McKinnon and Juju -4.1 and 4.4, all of Bullock, and the Ravens D -5.
Dead cat.

Ghost team is at 178.35 + (JuJu - 1.90) + (Ten - 10.00)
Hurts a little more to see Otton explode as I was one an extremely low number of roosters to have him.
Though at least all of the woulda coulda shoulda variations all would have been knocked out last week too
so at least cannot regret that.

Based on the wisdom of the crowds and some common sense along with $250 cap, here's the most un-unique lineup
QB: Carr, Cousins
RB: Pierce, Stevenson, Edmonds, Barkley
WR: Sutton, Pickens, JuJu, Doubs, ASB, McKenize, Palmer
TE: Goedert, Pitts, Hill
K: Blankenship, McPherson, Tucker
D: SF, GB, Balt
QB: Cousins 25
RB: Pierce 14, Stevenson 16
WR: Palmer 18, ASB 10
TE: Goedert 28
Flex: Pitts 5 or Hill, JuJu 5+
K: McPherson 6 or Tucker
D: GB 2 or Balt
Currently at 129. Not a great week. Should give you an idea of where the cut might fall.

Must be lot of people short handed this week with the byes and injuries.. I'll guess 125?

Sitting at 122.65 (Counted 18.8 for Juju) Curious what the cut line is after last night.
I still have Duvernay and Olave counting
One replaces a 0.0 and the other potentially a 3.20
fingers crossed.
