Happy Thanksgiving, thread people Hopefully the Turk is enjoying some turkey right now where he is -QG

Not so happy here. This game is putting me in huge hole.

Looks like the live scoring site isn't updating either.

For my players I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Ditto, e.g. I was really hoping for that late Cobb TD to happen, you always need points from unexpected sources like that.

 

[Balco]

I can't complain about Stafford, because his performance last week was the main reason I advanced this week. But man, losing Schaub is going to be the end of me.

Brandon Marshall's day after last weeks dud was good to see, though. Hope Manningham can do the same.

Lets go Ray Rice!

 

[Saint]

At least Stafford threw one TD... better than nothing.

 

[Das Boot]

At least Stafford threw one TD... better than nothing.

The cut lines get really tough in the last few weeks; Stafford's mediocre total will probably bounce some teams this week.I could be in that group if Rivers has a turkey hangover too.

 

[QuizGuy66]

17.8 after today (Burleson, Cowboys Defense, and a big 1.8 from Lee Evans )

Burleson sets a nice floor for my flex (I hope). A little concerned getting only 6 points out of the Cowboys though. Don't think Arizona or the Bills will provide anything more than that.



-QG

 

[Balco]

I have it is 9.8 for Rice, not good for my # 1 back. Add the 19.9 for Stafford (my only qb) and I can be in big trouble. Need skills players to step up huge.

 

[BassNBrew]

Rice coming up small is probably the only thing that gives me hope.

 

[BassNBrew]

Looking at yesterdays TDs

Not in contest - Pitta, Robinson x 2, Kuhn, Williams

In contest - Marshall, Jones, Jennings, Johnson

Amazing that we only got 4 non-QB TDs out of 6 teams.

 

[NYRAGE]

Not a stellar start. I shouldn't have jinxed myself by posting last week.

 

[a_troll00]

Rice and Jordy Nelson have been coming up huge for me in this contest. So, I will have to say that I'm already feeling very nervous about this week... but when you gotta go, you gotta go.

 

[Saint]

Sitting at 11.1 from Reggie Bush and 14.9 from Calvin. Not the best, but not the worst either.

Sorry about this. I forgot to adjust the service to grab the stats for the earlier games. I updated it to reflect all the games from yesterday.I also updated the view to look nicer when viewing from the "team view" page for your whole season, I adjusted the current cut percent and added a "what if" cutoff line that show where the cutoff would have been each week when considering all teams are live.

Rock on OC and great job again (as always!)Edit to add: It looks like the cutline number and timestamp of the cut run is missing from the top now. Is that being moved somewhere else?

 

[rustycolts]

38.5 out of 5 players don't think its going to be pretty for me this week.

 

[DWI]

I would have made the cut just once since week 4 had the what if cut line occurred, glad it didn't.

 

[H8fulHuck]

I would have made the cut just once since week 4 had the what if cut line occurred, glad it didn't.

made it every week until 11 by what if standards. just as glad as you that it doesn't count.

 

[QuizGuy66]

So I understand the "What If" means where the cutline would be by percentage or by raw number? i.e. was the "What if" cutline for week 11 the top 1000 out of all 10000+ entries or was it for the top 62.5% of all 10000+ entries?

Anyhow, week 10 and week 11 are the only 2 I don't make it.

Not looking good for us QG... I missed Week 6 and Week 11. Hope my guys come together....

 

[kevzilla]

I still would have made it every week, but there would have been some closer calls.

The "What If" is the cut off assuming all teams are in it every week. So yeah for week 11, it's the 1000th score when considering all 11K + teams scores that week whether they are in or not. I thought it would be fun to show that number, especially with people wondering how they stack up when they get knocked out etc...

 

[RenegadeGM]

Love it when you get some points from unexpected sources early... Jags D and Harry Douglas on the board already today!

Ditto on the Harry Douglas gift. The cuts are merciless this far in - unexpected points will make a big difference.

 

[Saint]

353 folks enjoying the Beanie Wells show today... Just glad to be on that train.

 

[JoeSteeler]

110.5 so far

 

[RenegadeGM]

Man, I have a bad feeling those of us WITHOUT Beanie Wells are in big trouble...

wells over 200!

 

[Ignoratio Elenchi]

Thanks in part to Beanie, I'm at 133 right now with some room for improvement. Any chance the cut isn't 150+?

 

[Saint]

Last year's cut was 162.10 to give perspective.... Brutal...

Sitting at 135.75 here.

 

[rustycolts]

Sitting at 119 after early games.Not looking good.

 

[Balco]

123.8. Need lots of help. Especially at WR with no studs left there. Would be nice if Manningham could play and do something.

 

[kardplayer]

Last year's cut was 162.10 to give perspective.... Brutal...Sitting at 135.75 here.

That week, Foster had 26.3 and was on 90+% of rosters... hopefully that drove the cutline higher.Signed,A guy with 115.5 after the 1 o'clock games, with a max of about 165 if Lynch, Wallace, and Graham put up 60 points.

True... unfortunately the year before that, the cutoff was 167.89.

Wouldn't these #s lead us to believe we are looking at a pretty low cut line so far?

 

[Saint]

It could.. but keep in mind we are eliminating 50% of the pool. Historically, the cut has typically been 150+. If you look at Week 10 for example (no byes), the 500th team scored 176.00.

 

[QuizGuy66]

106.65 after the 1pm games

I still have Brady, P Thomas, MB III, Redman, VJax, S Moss, D Moore, Ant Brown, F Davis, A Hernandez and Suisham to go though.

Never let the facts get in the way of a good argument!

 

[NYRAGE]

155 so far, plus whatever Helu gets the rest of the way. Hernandez (8.2) + Lance Moore and A. Brown (6.6) and (10). Also have Rivers (21).

And in Week 11, it was 154.45... stop scaring the good people

Of course that was also a bye week for some of the big scorers.... Just pay homage to the Turk and he may spare you...

Check and mate. Now crossing fingers to get to 170...

 

[The Frog]

159.2 pts so far. Still have brady/rivers both at halftime (my only two qbs) and Mike Wallace to go. Starting to think I May make it anouther week.

 

[Pantherz]

Janikowski's going to save some people, or boot some people, however you look at it. He's got 18 at the half.

 

[RenegadeGM]

Went from my best finish last week to (barring a miracle) missing the cut this week. Total collapse from everyone this week. Good luck to everyone!

 

[The Frog]

174 and still going.

 

[BNL Fan #24]

Hopefully I have enough to get to next week.

150.5 so far but I think 160 should be attainable with an outside shot at the 170s.

Suisham (-7.0)

Roethlisberger (-19.9)

Pierre Thomas (-17.4) or Issac Redman (-17.4)

Meachem (-3.1) or Cotchery (-3.1)

 

[Balco]

This is it for me 137.4. Lowest scoring receiver has 4.4, 2nd lowest has 8.5. I have Manningham, McCluster, and Antonio Brown. Still have Jimmy graham (-8.4) and Isaac Redman (-9.8). Just can't see getting enough to make a cut of 160 (at least).

 

[QuizGuy66]

156.35

+ P Thomas - (6.3/15.2)

+ I Redman - (6.3/15.2)

+ Ant Brown - 6.9

+ Susiham - 13.0
