Thank you Philip Rivers. I really needed that one.

Only 80 and change, but I still have Forte (-0), Shady (-0), Celek (-0), Avant (-7.3) and Philly D (-0) to play.

I am at 167 plus what ever Antonio Brown scores. Used Helu for the first time. Welcome back McGahee.

115 at the last check. Brady has scored since then and Wells is replacing a scored so I'm probably closer to 125. I'll add anything VJax and Josh Brown post further.
Looks like the scoring app is down.Anyway Brady, Vjax, and Manning ham late tds should have me above 150 and moving on.
I fixed the Ram's D... What are you seeing/not seeing? I had to make a couple of changes this morning, but it looks like everything should be running correctly. Do you have any specific players scores that are off?
It hasn't updated P. Rivers for a while.
Looks like it's screwed up from the daylight savings time switch and hasn't been updating since 7. I just manually processed the stats. Now that they have been run, anything else off?
 
I love it when my bench rocks it, and Vincent Jax remembers how to catch.

Pierre Thomas 17

Reggie Bush 22

Broncos D 14

158 + Mike Wallace OR A Brown - 0.

:schwing!:

 
Crazy week...highest score since this thing started. Thank you, River, Bush, Tate, Jackson, Welker, etc.

225 and counting...ride the wave while I can...

 
168.9 with Antonio Brown (-10.5) my only remaining player. Feeling guardedly optimistic about moving on.

Very nice to have you back, Julio Jones. Now, if you could talk to your brother Felix about getting back soon...

 
211.05 this week and prob won't use Ray Rice this week. I want to thank Rivers and V. Jackson for showing up this week. This is the farthest I've ever made it in this contest. J. Graham is my mvp and prob everybody else who has him. My picking 3 TE's(Graham, Finely, and E. Moore) really helped my team. Most weeks 2 of my TE's counted toward my scores.

 
With the 2nd half scoring explosion by highly-rostered players, I'm guessing a big cut line. I'm now at 138.45 with Wallace (-4.3) and Celek (-7.7 [or -4.3 if Wallace stinks it up]) and Henery (-7) and I don't feel real comfortable.

I have Cutler (-41.15), but I'm gonna go ahead and call that no help.

 
150-ish w/Forte(-17.5), Roeth(-0) and A. Brown(-11.3) remaining.

This may actually be the first week that Forte doesn't get used for me. "Weclome back, Willis/Mike Tolbert" indeed.

 
lots of key players scoring, so a higher cut seemed likely... probably not what the Megatron owners where hoping to see this week...

 
Suddenly my 166.2 has me :scared: seeing all the high scores in the thread.

I have MBIII, I Redman, L Evans (har), Ant Brown, and Suisham left.

-QG

 
194 right now.

I thought for sure my RB squad would put me out to pasture soon, but thanks go out this week to: McGahee, R. Bush and Ben "Mr. Garbage Time" Tate!

 
Here's why large rosters are good... my starting lineup this week:

Bradford

Reggie Bush

Lynch

Tate

Ford

Cribbs

Damian Williams

Graham

Dawson

Broncos

with Wallace (goose egg at halftime) and Celek still playing.

Not many of those guys are starting on FFL rosters this week... but I'm at 165.65.

 
looks like the cut line dropped now?? 116.6?
I didn't look at the cut line when it was mentioned in this thread earlier, but 128.55 was the actual cut for last week, it looks like i listed the actual cuts (below your team score) offset, so it appeared this was the cut for today.116 + the adjustments I made is correct, after this game, it will run again and update it.

Well I feel much better, especially with Wallace goose-egging it.Sorry I misread the grid and created confustion.
 
I'm at 163.75 with Rice (-11.7) and Hester (-11), so looks like I'll be moving on to week 10.

Thank you Phillip Rivers and your 40-plus, as well as Michael Bush and your almost 20 spot.

That Denver punt return to get me to double digits was a nice bonus too, I wonder how many people that might potentially save.

 
Count me as one of those Calvin Johnson/Matt Stafford owners who thought I was completely dead midway through the late games.

But Brady came through big, Denver's late Punt Return TD, and Mendy gets a rare TD tonight. And even with all of that, I am at 133.4 with only Hester (-5.4) left.

I may not make it through, but I will at least feel like I have a chance for the next 24 hours.

 
192.35 with Barber (-10.2) left to play. It sure is nice when the Philip Rivers to Vincent Jackson combo lands you nearly 80 points in one week. I'll take it. Cruising along nicely...

The querier shows 248 with the Rivers/Jackson combo still left. On to week 10 :thumbup:
 
131 with a 133 projected cut off! What are the odds of the cutt off going down? Here's for hoping for a low scoring game tonight!

291 with the Stafford/Johnson combo coming into the week.Lets see how many will remain.

At 96.6 now with the Akers scoring change. With the guys I have left, I should skate by the cut this week. No more bye weeks for me after this week too.
 
Sitting a precariously lucky 13 points above the cut line right now. With only Earl Bennett (-15.9) remaining to try to boost my total, it's officially time to find that sturdy couch and start praying that my QB free week doesn't spell the end of my run in this contest. Living on the edge.... :scared:

I think this is another aspect of the contest to be explored: Forum Readers vs. Non-Forum Readers.

It seems easy to draw a correlation between the popularity of certain players and people who read this forum.

Antonio Brown is a great example. He's the most-owned WR by percentage, and that's probably due to the hype he received around here during pre-season. And he had a good game yesterday, along with a few other popular forum-picks, so I think that's why we're seeing a lot of high scores posted in here.

 
Man I thought I was TOAST this week with all the folks I had on BYE or were injured.

My MVP of the week: Andy Dalton ($8 - 2.42% Owned) - 29.25pts :thumbup:

Reggie Bush & Mike Tolbert ($15ea - 17.5% / 8.3% Owned) got me over 20pts each :thumbup:

My 3 headed TE attack has been killing it lately (A Hernandez ($10 - 28%) / H Miller ($9 - 3.2%) / F Davis ($5 - 8%) :thumbup:

Used Every Week: Mike Wallace ($23 - 27%)

Haven't Used Yet: Danny Amendola ($7 - 25%) - Jay Feely ($2 - 28.7%)

Finished at 170.15 this week. SHOULD be good. :unsure:

 
Sitting 3 points over the cut-off with only Knox left, who would need 10+ to give me anything. That TD reception stolen from Antonio Brown is probably gonna be the difference. Just when you thought you had seen every weird way to lose in fantasy football, you somehow find another. Thanks Mike Wallace!

 
Lots of pretty good but not great scores on my team this week (Rivers notwithstanding). No one else topped 20, but most everyone topped 12 And I'm still sweating it. Sitting @ 149.95 and looking to erase 2 of my 3 lowest counting scores (Celek -7.7 and Henery -7.0).

 
172.5 with Shady (-12.3)...looks like i'll live to fight another day.

Deepest run for me in this contest as well. Though I'm gonna live & die based on the QB play of Phillip Rivers as he's the only QB I have who is still healthy/starting.

I was actually wondering how that play would have affected people close to the cut line. I figure more people have Brown given his cost and he already had decent yardage and reception totals. Huh.
