week 9 should be interesting, I think one of the higher survival duos is:Stafford + Calvin Johnson Survival rate for teams with these players: 65.12 percentTotal teams with these players 473 Still Alive 308
I am one of the 308 still left. And they both scored huge this week, so we will likely still have 300 entries that make it to Week 9. I have Tom Brady to cover me at QB, but Week 9 could be my demise with a RB core that needs a to of magic to survive week to week.
 
I think the Cut Line will be very high this week.

I have 147.15 + McCluster (-5).

I think I will make it but it will be much closer than some might guess. Stafford and Wells will have a big affect on the Cut Line (IMHO).

 
I only need to beat 22.5% right? I have no idea what the cutline will be, I do know anyone of the 4k that scored well might show up to this thread to post their high score ;)

 
At 190.95 right now so feel pretty good about this week. Week 11 may be my demise though (have 8 players on bye out of 29 team roster). Very weak at RB with Hightower, Felix Jones, Harrison, Hardesty either hurt or out the whole season. This week had 15+ points from Stafford, Manningham, Moore, Antonio Brown, Olsen, Bironas and Lions (25 points from a D wow!)

In the 8 weeks so far Ive played only 1 player every week: Mike Wallace

Meanwhile, the following players have never counted: jerome harrison (out for year), hardesty, amendola (out for year), kyle rudolph, jacob tamme

I will be missing Stafford, Johnson, Burleson and Pettigrew... With Beanie (and maybe Ingram) as my only healthy RB. Very unlikely to make it through week 9.
 
Pretty sad that I am upset at a potential injury to Hardesty. But that is how weak my rb's are. Ray Rice, Beanie, and a bunch of backups.

180.95 with McCluster (-9.9) left.

My Stafford Schaub combo has been solid, but I can't afford to have Schaub lay a goose egg with Stafford on bye next week. I was uncomfortable going with 2 qbs instead of my usual 3, I just couldn't make salaries work. (and I just had to have BErnard Berrian!)

Antonio Brown was nice surprise and there was a Mario Manningham sighting!

I have to think the cut will be pretty high this week.

 
Here are the number of teams of the 4k alive missing players:

459 - Aaron Rodgers

270 - Matt Forte

617 - McFadden

172 - Michael Turner

303 - Greg Jennings

343 - Roddy White

 
Sitting at 165.90 + (VJax - 7.2) + (Dallas - 13) so I feel pretty decent.

Ant Brown, ADP and Fred Davis came on strong and I got at least 26 from my Kicker/Defense combo.

Hoping a rested Benson can fill in for ADP next week :unsure:

At 173 with VJax till to go, but he'd have to score 20 to count for me... and this is despite getting a combined 3.80 from my RBs (2.10 from Redman, 1.70 from LSR).

Lucky to get through this week, but really need McFadden to be healthy to have a shot at surviving next week.

 
85.6 with Rivers (-0), Shady McCoy (-0), Avant (-0), Austin (-0), Eagles D (-6) and Celek to go. Whatever Rivers and McCoy gets will stick, plus I'll get the best two scores from Avant/Celek/Austin. I'm going to guess I'll probably have 135-145 or so.
Looks like I was a bit off. At 131 and change now with the second half of the Philly game and Rivers still to go.
 
only picking 1 defense is really costing me in this contest, so much for the vaunted Steelers #1 Defense.Sitting at 115.4 and done.
wow... cut line showing 114.45. I thought it would be in the 120s at least.
:unsure:How accurate?
As long as nobody is seeing anything really off with their scores, it should be right on for when it was run (8 - 8:30), so the SNF and MNF games will move the cut line.
 
Where do you see the cut line on OC's site?

167.45 so far after squeaking through last week within 1.5 points of the cut.

Right above where you see this FBG35K Gameday Scoring - Team 100477 at the top. Obviously the Team # will be different.
 
WOW. I thought I was out this week as I have no QB.

146 w/ VJax and McCluster left. Cutoff prediction @ 114.45? :eek:

OC is pretty accurate, but usually under predicts by about a point. After big game by Philadelphia and bad game by Dallas plus MNF game the cut will probably be around 125.For the first time this competition I am below the cut before MNF with one player to go: 109 + Rivers (-0.0). Hopefully Rivers finally has a 2010 Rivers game. Really nervous this week. :unsure: Good luck all!

Until we get thru the byes, the cuts will be low. The bye weeks (combined with injuries) are thinning the herd more than people's selections and their performances. The guys around here have learned to lean towards early bye weeks and usually are on the same value guys so you can't put too much stock in the scores posted here until the number of teams really get thinned out.
 
Would love to see a stat as to how many got past a week without a QB. I guess the starting lineup is big enough it's not that crazy of a feat.

:thumbup: I didn't see it on the page that shows this week, but it's on the page that shows the season.Feeling pretty good about this season except I made the mistake of too many Texans and Steelers - Schaub, Tate, Brown, Sanders, Daniels, and Texans D all off week 10. :bag:

Does having only Colt McCoy this week count as having a QB? At least his late TD to Cribbs helped out. I'm done at 156.90 (thanks Detroit Def!).

McCoy had 20+ pts, which is great production. Players who are out/bye are the ones which hurt the most in this contest. Since if your guy is on the active roster and able to play on game day, he could pop up with some points any given week.
 
Safe at 150+ this week plus whatever Rivers gives me. My only bye issue this coming week will be Greg Olsen, which is fairly big given he's been steady points all year at TE.

The Monday night game will be HUGE as I'll have Forte, Shady, Barber, Celek, Avant and the PHI D/ST going so I'll be sweating that big time.

 
I think i'm around 122 with vjax (-0.0). this was my *really* bad bye week. So glad olsen, beanie, and stafford.showed up or I would have been around 50!

 
Need about 60 points from Rivers / Matthews / McCluster.

Think I can make it? I see Rivers going for about 400 yds and 5 TD's tonight

 
A special shout out to Beanie for playing this week. Also, can someone supply the starting number of 18/19 player teams for last year? TIA

 
Wow...can't believe it. Sitting at 121.25 while taking a 0 out of the RB position (Forte/Tolbert/Addai/Hightower...how you doin?).

Still have Vincent Jackson, Steve Breaston, Dexter McCluster and Patrick Crayton with 1 counting for sure (only 2 scores over 0 at this point), and 2 if someone scores over 5.3 points. I've still got a shot!

 
Where is this clubhouse?

Me and my minimum of 150 points would like to check it out. Thank you Antonio Brown, Lions Def, Jay Feely and SJax!
