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.
And in Week 11, it was 154.45... stop scaring the good people :)
Jimmy!!!Cutoff now at 150.95.
Now who's scaring people! :potkettle: :lmao: Now someone stop these guys from scoring!!!
On the bright side, the Eli TD had no impact on the cutline at all. It remains at 151.1. I'm assuming that means that all of Eli's owners are not near the cutline.It's interesting that Eli has completed passes to 7 receivers, but only Nicks is in the contest. This may be true for all teams, but I wasn't paying attention until tonight!

That's interesting as Eli's TD put me back into things for the time being now that I'm at 152.05. I was out before, there were only 17 of us anyway. There either was or is a tie now and I must be slightly above said tie.

That seems odd. Not sure I'm going to be able to figure it out unfortunately, but I'm debugging on the fly...
 
Just keep dinking and dunking Eli, not picks though, please. I fear and pray to the Turk, "Please spare my poor excuse for a team until another week."

 
Here are the current stats by tonight's players whether they are above the cutline or not (post Eli to Cruz TD):

Code:
Player          	in	out	Grand TotalBrandon Jacobs	        37	31	68Darren Sproles	        8	10	18Devery Henderson	25	21	46Drew Brees	        11	1	12Eli Manning	        12	5	17Hakeem Nicks	        23	13	36Jimmy Graham	        163	82	245Lance Moore	        194	83	277Lawrence Tynes	        32	33	65Mark Ingram	        20	27	47Marques Colston	        1	4	5New Orleans Saints	62	56	118Pierre Thomas	        173	97	270
 
So where exactly are you guys getting the stats to calculate the cut lines?
Organized Chaos sent me the raw data (rosters + scores through SNF) from his database. I then created an Excel spreadsheet that calculated each team's score as play occurred tonight.
My database is here FYI Xenopax (if you missed it) http://ffltools.com/fbg35k/ Anyone can see their teams scoring as the games are being played.
 
I have the unofficial cutline at 154.55. I'm sitting at 156.9, so I'll be sweating like everyone else who is close to it.
Just to make sure everyone is aware, the data to get this cutline has been about a point or so off every week, so keep that in mind. It's unofficial for sure.

Good luck to those sweating out the Turk tonight! I'm fortunate to have ended up with 174.25. Hopefully I can break through to the 250 for the first time!

Man, not looking good for me. About 130 right now, but my wrs(Jordy, Vjax, Dez did nothing)I have Moore, Manningham, and Jimmy Graham still left, so hopefully I pull my flex points from Jimmy, and Moore and Manningham can get a solid 12+. I just know I am at the mendoza line here :cry:
171.5. Thanks to the saints boys.Whew. See if i can sneak another week
 
Igno, curious to see what is the highest scoring 30 man roster to date, still alive?

Errr...looks like my "29 healthy out of 30 roster spots" roster may not make the cut this week. I've got 128.9 with:Pierre Thomas (-6.3)Lance Moore (-4.5)Shawn Suisham and Lawrence Tynes (-13.0)I figure at best, I land in the 140's, and I don't think that's gonna do it.
Holy Sweet Baby BeJeezzus!After being depressed about this all day, Lance Moore and Pierre Thomas BOTH step up huge, lifting me from 128.9 to 159.0...should be good enough for my second straight trip to the final 500.Database junkies, I'm curious for those making the cut tonight, who was furthest away from making the cut before the game tonight? Is that an executable query? I feel like I gotta be close to leading that one.Doing my Touchdown Dance right now...

One team had 88.4, with Brees, Graham, and Nicks. You were 43rd from the bottom. About 120 people jumped the line.

Wow, this has really been a tough week for the top 20 in the contest. But it just goes to show that past performance is no indication of future success.
 
Thought I was dead for sure, and still might be with 156.6 but I have a shot. Thanks Lance.

Now I wish I'd spent more than 10-15 minutes on this. :lol:

 
After missing the cut by 0.95 last week, its now onto the Coulda-Woulda-Shoulda / Tears In My Beer / Self Inflicted Torture part of the contest. This week, I would have easily escaped the turk with my 196.6 score. Of course, using OC's "What If" data, I should have potentially been eliminated 3 other times prior to week 11. But conveniently ignoring that, I could've been a somebody in the final 500 :boxing: . Instead, I'm just a nobody posting meaningless drivel :bag:

 
:pickle: 159.35 :pickle: :pickle:

I love this contest... Pretty sure it gives me congestion and heart pain every year.

The Turk finally had that sit down meeting with himself. Glad it wasn't with me.

This week should be tough. A ton of good teams in the final 500. Although it looks like there are some teams that played above their normal production level thanks to guys like Knox, Beanie, Lance Moore, Janikowski, etc.

I guess the same could be said about the performance of alot of other too. Good luck to the other 499 teams!
