I thought I was Turk-meat when my QB, RB1 and RB2 spots were locked in with 23 points for the week. But then Boswell and Kraft balled out. Now I'm safe sitting at 148. GL to those still running!

 

[scottybo]

This is a weird team, beat the cut line by less than 2 points in week 4. Now we're going for back-to-back 200 point weeks.

198.45

Croskey-Merritt -7.9.

generally, I think it’s a good thing when you barely make it over the line if you have a few of the popular players. Cut that herd just a bit. Of course that assumes your players perform better going forward.

I’ll be interested to see how many London-JSN-pearsall-egbuka owners survive week 8

Yeah, but the "Stress Factor" being close to the Cut Line has me sweating this week!!
As a JSN & Pearsall roster holder, I am Sitting at 130.45 vs 120.80 and Mr Bill (4.3) yet to play.

Mostly thanks to Tua's awakening!

I don't have London but do have the other 3. I'm over 180 with a shot to get to 200 tonight between Ertz & Bill.

 

[jm192]

Sitting safely at 140 thanks to 35.9 from Love and 22 from Boswell.

 

[Charles in Houston]

7.5 below the cut. Gonna stink if I get eliminated because 2 of 3 defenses were on a bye.

I don't want to kick a Football Guy when he's down, but that can be engineered around before the season starts. In all likelihood, there were other issues in this week's rooster for you. Good luck, I hope you pull through.

 

[Charles in Houston]

Took a 0 at QB this week but will move on thanks to Kraft blowing up tonight. If Chase Brown actually is a usable RB going forward that would be big

Kraft gets me to 156

What a game he had!

I'm at 175 with the same two (-7.5 & -9.2), plus Mahomes (-31). They'd have to collectively go off if I were to reach 200. I got 199.80, but never 200. Love to join the Club but I'm pretty content with scoring comfortably over the cut line every week, so far. Anti-jinx spray being applied to post.

Somewhat similar experience but only one week.

Got in by less then a point last week and that was with some much needed MNF help, came down to the wire.

This week sitting at 211.85 with JCM -13.10.

 

[Golden Gopher]

After sort of a ho-hum week, I'm sitting at 135 with Bill (-7.5), Lane (-10.7), and Ertz (-12.8) going tonight. Feel cautiously optimistic about moving on, but who knows.

Would really love to get Pearsall back soon, especially with Egbuka's upcoming bye next week. I'm also hoping that Geno and the LVR defense come back rejuvinated after their bye (anyone can hope, right)?

 

[nittanylion]

After Ka'imi Fairbairn notched a 15.9 earlier in the day, I sure didn't think Boswell was going to score for me last night, but he sure did.

Hoping National TE Day carries over into tonight's 'skins/Chiefs tilt, to the tune of Zach Ertz (-6.5)...

It's been a crazy 2 weeks for me too.

Last week I only made it by 6 points, with my lowest score so far in the contest.

This week I'm missing 6 players (4 on bye and 2 out with injuries).
Then Thursday night I only got 8.4 from Keenan Allen (who typically gives me a usable score) and I'm starting to get worried about being booted.
. . . Then everything goes crazy in the 1pm games with James Cook, Chase Brown, Fannin, and C J Stroud going off the rails.
I had enough points to advance to week 9 by the 3rd quarter of the 1pm games.

It was a crazy week (in a good way), for many of us

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

156.2 + Bill - 5.8 + Chiefs

I propose a Packers / Patriots trade of Matthew Golden for Trevyon Henderson. That way they can both accomplish nothing in new locations.

 

[Titans_fan]

It's gonna be a sweat for me, but Love's performance last night might have saved me.

121 + JCM (-6.5) + Pacheco (-6.5) + Chiefs D

 

[On Waldman Pond]

After cruising through the first 7 weeks with 30 points or more to spare each week, I find myself sweating it out for the first time in 2025. With JSN out on a bye, Bijan Robinson picked a bad time to put up a dud. I'm sitting at 124.45, 3.65 above the cut line with Mahomes (-34.25), Crosky-Merritt (-6.30), and Kelce -6.50) to play yet.

Mahomes is unlikely to improve upon Tua's 34.25 so I need Bill or Taylor's fiancé to come through for me to move on.

 

[JoeSteeler]

Good luck to all those sweating tonight!

 

[On Waldman Pond]

Thank you, Mr. Pfizer!!! On to week 9!

 

[TheWinz]

I am going to use @Army Eye scoreboard here, as it's been quite accurate. I will verify later and make changes if needed:

We started the week with 31 folks eligible for @Joe Bryant badge offer. The great news is we still have 31 ; the bad news is we lost @Deamon

Moving on to week 9 are:

- Birdie048 was this week's lowest advancing team, with a score of 130.45 (Scoresman almost became a repeat offender here)

Good luck in week 9!

My lineup, that I really did not want to be my final lineup, is still humming along….

215 pts this week (love you Flacco)
