Sorry everyone, some final venting to get this out of my system. If the Patriots manage to score with 6 shots on the one yard line by either a Drake Maye passing TD or QB sneak, or TreyVeyon Henderson breaks the goal line on a run or catch, I make it to week 13. That was all against the worst run defense in the NFL, the Bengals. Annoying. Thanks for this thread and again, good luck to everyone and I'll see you in the playoffs.
Ouch. I hope you didn’t have to watch that **** show as it happened.
 
Decent start. Figure it will take 150-155 to advance based on the 40% cut and no byes.

95 with Mahomes, Kelce, Jamo, and Hollywood. Need five double scores from the position players and 5 at def to hopefully move on.

Stop sweating, wussy!
When your team is as bad as mine, every week is a sweat.

With so many highly owned players left and a 40% cut, I’m not even sure what to root for.
 
A common QB scoring format is .04 per passing yd, 4 per passing TD, and -2 per INT. Using that, the current top 10 are:

262.3 - Mahomes
259.5 - Allen
253.5 - Hurts
240.1 - Maye
238.8 - Prescott
228.3 - Stafford
223.7 - Williams
215.6 - Goff
213.5 - Jones
206.1 - Herbert

This contest scoring format is .05 per passing yd, 6 per passing TD, and -1 per INT. Using that, the current top 10 are:
345.7 - Mahomes
331.6 - Allen
329.5 - Prescott
319.4 - Maye
318.6 - Stafford
318.6 - Hurts
300.9 - Goff
289.9 - Williams
282.9 - Jones
280.1 - Herbert

The 2 lists contain the same 10 QB's, but who gets the biggest bump with the passer-friendly scoring?
39.6% increase - Stafford
39.6% increase - Goff
38.0% increase - Prescott
35.9% increase - Herbert
33.0% increase - Maye
32.6% increase - Jones
31.8% increase - Mahomes
29.6% increase - Williams
27.8% increase - Allen
25.7% increase - Hurts

This bottom list is why I veer towards pocket passers vs running QB's in this contest.

I consider Herbert a pocket passer but one that can take off if needed. He has 345 rushing yards while Hurts has 329 although Hurts obviously has more rushing TDs.

Agreed. Herbert is athletic enough to run for decent yardage, but if the only categories are pocket passer or running QB, I put him in the passer category. The top 3 QB's with the highest increase in scoring have combined for only 161 yards rushing.
 
No top notch scoring through the early games on Thursday and Friday, but still have an abundance of opportunities. Posted likely keeper scores of 26.8 from Prescott, 14.8 from Chase Brown and maybe need to use 10.0 from Hollywood Brown.

Doubt Geno improves QB score.

Have Henderson, Marks, Harvey and JCM Bill hoping for one high score and another in double digits.

Have JSN, Diggs, Egbuka, Allen, Franklin, Bryant, Boutte and Ayomanor need another high score and a couple upper teens

Have Ertz, Fannin, Barner and Knox who I need to improve on Goedert's measly score. Missing Kraft, but he is my only serious injury so can't complain too much.

Got 6.0 from Santos, but could use a big day out of Little, since my Saint PK is out of work

Saints, Falcons and Jets - how about some sacks and turnovers here?

Hey Bass, you have any idea who is listed on the site currently in 5th place this week?

Dang, never would have guessed. With the way the line was flying up during the 1pm games I figured their would be a pile of players over 200 this week.

Could get wild tomorrow night with most of the teams having Henderson
 
Currently sitting at 144.8 with Henderson to go, so I'm assuming I'll be fine.

Next week is going to be tough, maybe impossible. I've got CMC, Henderson, McMillan, Kittle on bye.

I need at least 1 of London/Benson to play to field a full lineup,

QB's: Love/Lawrence
RB's: CMC, Henderson, ETN, Mason, Benson
WR's: London, Egbuka, McMillan, Sutton, Hollywood Brown
TE: Kittle, Chig
Def: GB/Arizona
K: Bowel, McPherson.

Hopefully I can get 1 or both back and the bulk of the remaining teams are also majorly affected by the week 14 bye week.
 
I’m almost definitely gone after this week.

Down by 8, with Henderson and boutte left - 8.4 and - 8.2. With many teams having Henderson there’s not much hope. With London, Kraft and Penix out, JSN, egbuka, and pearsall having down weeks is too much to overcome.

Good luck everyone.
 
Sitting at 142.10 above the cut line by 10.35 and have Henderson -14.8 and either Diggs or Boutte -8.2.

Seems that a 7-3 type game would be best for me?
 
Zach Ertz/$9 has to be one of the best ROI purchases from the entire store, correct, or is it more how my Team is constructed and producing that gives me that impression?

Has notched a qualifying score for me every week, except Week 1.

Holy crap. We must have almost the same players. I am done for sure. Losing London this week & not having Kraft really hurt.. You still have a chance if you're only 8 points under the cut.. Good luck with Henderson tonight.
 
At 107.20 with Henderson, Boutte, and Demario Douglas going tonight.
My WR's crapped the bed this week.

Overall I'm happy with how far I got with this squad. Always to seem have a hot player at some point during the season even with injuries.
Making my roster a little deeper than in past years saved me this year.
