Who used to do those projections to see which teams were projected to make it through each week. Was it Drinen? They should bring them back.

Yes - those predictions were great. Gave something to gauge for how the week would go. Hopefully they return.'YoUnG GuNz said:
I agree I think it is a good time to bring them back heading into week 4 with the bye weeks just around the corner.

I see a couple discrepancies on OC's tracker (unless sportsline is wrong).
Buffalo had 2 INT, 2 Sacks and 1 TD - so that should be 12.0, not 14.0
M Barber had 17 yards rushing and 1 TD so that should be 7.7, not 13.7
Naturally both work against me.
I have (unofficially) 142.00 after the 1pm games. With Hightower losing carries I suddenly like my RBs a lot lot less

Also has Felix Jones at 16.1, while I have him down for 10.1I am sitting at 142.3 with not a whole lot left going. Either way I am likely toast with my RB corps (have Hightower as well(I see a couple discrepancies on OC's tracker (unless sportsline is wrong).Buffalo had 2 INT, 2 Sacks and 1 TD - so that should be 12.0, not 14.0M Barber had 17 yards rushing and 1 TD so that should be 7.7, not 13.7 Naturally both work against me.I have (unofficially) 142.00 after the 1pm games.

I'm afraid to even check on my team today. Afraid my QBs have probably eliminated me. :(
Any early estimates on this week's cutoff? Or do we need to at least get the 4PM games finished before that's even remotely ballpark?

should be.... i have him as well at 150...Welker already counting, Ford (-12.5 Brown), Wells (-9.6 Hardesty), and Prater/Carpenter left. 163.1 Hope that's good enough.

167.1 with Rivers still playing. Figuring I probably end up with 170+, I should be just fine this week.

Done at 159.9... I think I should be safe with that.

164, bye weeks begin

150.85 + Delone Carter (-11). Not feeling too great.
I am in the 180's. Next week is by far my toughest bye week. If I get through, I will start to feel like I have a good chance to get into the finals.

shot in the dark...? or any method to the madness?

Last year cutline was around 145 right before the byes...shot in the dark...? or any method to the madness?

155 and done.I think I will make it this week,but pretty sure you can stick a fork in me next week with 7 players on bye I think I'm done.

212.1 here and Carpenter scored 16. Otherwise we're in the same spot. Too bad we can't bank points.A nice week for my team. All in at 212.4 if my scoring is correct. 3 players scored over 30 points for me this week, and 2 more at 20+. Only my K held to single digits (9). My 2nd 200 point week of the season so far. Definitely doomed.

OC's live scoring app is great but for some reason Felix Jones and Marion Barber were both credited with an extra TD. I have both but looks like I'll make it through this week with157.4 with Blount (-10.8) left to go. Thank goodness for Welker this week.

The Buffalo Bills Defense has been my highest scoring D for 3 out of the first 4 weeks. Didn't see that coming...they were a throw-away add at the last minute. Really happy so far with my 3 defense and 4 kicker squad...gettting 10+ from kicker every week and close to double digits from Defense every week. Hoping there will come a cut week where that makes a difference. Not this week, going to skate by with 170+. See you all next week.
The Real Hipster Doofus

Yep it is my first year playing this and I already regret only going with 2 defenses. Hasn't killed me yet, but an extra $2 for another D would have been better.
The Man With No Name
Footballguy
150-175 every week but not getting much out of my 3 kickers and 3 defenses. Looks like I chose poorly.
34 points out of my kickers in 4 weeks
35 points out of my defenses in 4 weeks
They are consistent though.

Sister Havana

181.95 and done...should make it. However, the next 2 weeks of byes will be rough for me.
The Iguana
Footballguy
lot of big point producers yesterday likely means a pretty high cut line imo. ~145 with Benn (-6) likely means i get an early exit but here's open for a little mercy to squeak it out.
Ignoratio Elenchi

I don't think my team has much farther to go in this contest. My RB/WR corps just isn't shaking out the way I'd hoped.
But if nothing else, I've been consistent. My scores the first three weeks were 160.95, 158.20, and 159.10, and this week it looks like I'm going to end up in the low 160s unless Tampa Mike goes bananas tonight.

168. I should make it. Robbie Gould got me 22 points! (1.84% owned!) Guessed wrong on Jerrel Jernigan. (who?)

Had a terrible week but Ryan Succop and Jets D bailed me out I think. Done at 156 although I think I may lose 3-4 points b/c of Marion Barber mistake.
