184.25 with some guys like SJax (-12.90) or Owen Daniels (-9.70) still going. Pretty sure I'll be advancing this week. Not sure if I survive next week without ADP though.

 
Looks like I'm having my best week so far with a few players still playing or yet to play: 229.15

Furthest I think I've ever been, but got a 4 players on bye next week (including AP and Harvin.) I went for high dollar players and only took 19 total, only 1 DF. I haven't been putting up huge scores, but it's been a pretty consistent team, and if CJohnson and AP can continue to improve over the next few weeks (and I make it through next week) I could be in good shape to at least make the finals. But I need a couple of guys to all go off at the same time, whereas right now they have all been kind of taking turns (good for consistency, but bad when it comes to getting into the top 250.)

 
411 yards a 3TDs and I do NOT use Matt Ryan this week.

I cannot believe the day Flacco had. Crazy

BTW... Not sure if this helped or not, but I did donate to FFLTools this year, so call it Karma or what, but it seemed to help. HAHA

200.45 with Dwyer (-12.90)

Really happy considering Antonio Brown on the bench and bad days from Julio/Decker. Buzzkill - - my hopes for Taiwan Jones.

Flacco/Graham/Rudolph/Cincy D/Prater carried me.

 
Feeling a skosh better after Lynch went into mini-beast mode(more TDs woulda been welcome, but we still love you, you Skittle eatin' freak.)

Mid 150's now with Wallace(-6.1), Texans D(-9), Gould(-17...not happening) and McCluster (-5.50) that could still count.

 
Ugh, I'm in trouble. At 143 with Cutler (-21-ish), Forte (-0), Gould (-13), Heath Miller (-2.8) and Dwayne Bowe (-9.5).

I figure I need about 160-165 or so to advance.

I'm probably done this week unless Lynch goes into super-Beast mode. With McFadden, Benson, and Sproles hurt, my RBs are Lynch, Tolbert, and McCluster. It's nice to see both Olsen and Gates having decent games today but I don't think I'm going to make it. Even if I managed to survive, Lynch being on bye next week would definitely be too much to overcome.It was a nice run this year - best I've ever done.

Looks like I might be sticking around for another week. Olsen came up huge this week and having Amendola come back strong was key as well. Currently sitting at 170.35 with McCluster (-6), Hester (-16.1), Gould (-10), and Chiefs (-3) left to go.Unless McFadden or Sproles come back next week, I'll be going with Tolbert/McCluster as my RBs. I probably used up my luck this week so I think the Turk and I have a date next week.

240.15 with no one left. Guess that would be good enough. Didn't even need the 33.15 from Flacco, but I sure could have used it last week. It would have kept me in the game. Maybe next year :banned:

 
OT helped me creep into the low 160s. Will be sweating the Turk until the end of MNF I assume...unless the Texans D can go bats@$t crazy tonight(which I will not complain about at all if they'd like to make happen).

 
Looks like I will advance but I have been dreading week 11. Lynch & Peterson on bye. If Benson, Mendy or Tate don't play, I will have only Ridley & Ronnie Brown at RB.

Have not been close to the cut line all year, but will be hoping to skate by next week

Turk's coming like a ton of bricks this week! Glad I have 170+ right now with a likely decent contribution yet from Marshall (-9.3) and possible push from Gould (-9), but I'd expect about 165ish to be the final tally. I'll be seeing 1600 of you next week!
 
172 and basically done. Excited to advance this far. Also hoping next weeks big byes take out a lot of good players. My byes are done.

Really like chances to get to the finals. But I doubt I have the firepower to actually win.

I'm thinking a little higher maybe 170. Should be the highest of the year highest before this was 161 and some change.
 
To give an idea of where the cutline is heading... if everyone in the night games score exactly what Mr. Dodds projected, the cutline will be 162.55.

 
161.05 with Ben (-36), JC, McCluster, and Dwyer at -9.7, and Baldwin (-6.6)... seems like JC is my best bet to push me through to the happy side

 
As of the Graham FG to make it 13-6, the projected cutline (if the Pit/KC game goes exactly as Dodds predicted) will be 162.85 + whatever points are added in the last 5 minutes of this game.

After SNF... Projected cutline (if all Dodds projections are accurate) = 163.45Current unofficial cutline = 160.25

thanks for the gutcheck confirmation of 165ish. done at 178 here...not spectacular but my byes are all over and everyone but Devery Henderson that played today on my 30 man roster actually had points. Thinking I'll win? Not really, but I like the odds of making the final 250 again!
 
Unless Heath Miller and Dwayne Bowe come up big for me tomorrow, I'm done. Miller can still easily overtake my flex right now (-3), but Bowe is (-9.5), so that's not a gimmie he does much better than that. I have 145.5, so I'll need to get to probably 165 to even have a chance.

 
If you are curious as to when players' scores will start counting on MNF, check out this spreadsheet:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmSV5aHfLpnkdDlmR3RlcUF3Sjh3d3FxdW9iU2kta1E

Read it as follows:

Each column represents when their score starts counting AT THEIR POSITION. So for example, it's the score at which an RB will have enough points to be RB2. I need to work on how to figure out when a RB/WR/TE has passed the flex player, but that's a little too complicated for me for this evening.

So, for example, 51 Mike Wallace owners have 0 from their WR3 right now, so everyone of his points will count for them.

Another example, 19 Chiefs owners have 3 points from their current highest scoring defense.

As always, this is unofficial...

 
Happy to have survived Rodgers' bye with 193.5+, even though Gabbert only scored 9.45.

Now that I've survived my major byes, I'm glad I went with a stud roster and only 20 guys. As long as they stay pretty healthy (should be helped if Benson and Mendenhall can come back healthy), I think I have a good shot to make the finals and do some damage.

I like the way my guys have been producing recently, and hope Royster can finally contribute before the end of the year.

 
1 major hurdle down and 1 to go on bye weeks. I have CJ/Lynch both off this week and Benson hurt so I'm using SJax/Royster as my only RBs in wk11. If I make wk12, I love my chances to compete. My team is staying healthy and guys like Wayne/Amendola/TYoung are turning WR into a strength.

Locker being back saved me from Vick's score. Amendola boosted my WR's a bit, Gates showed up, Fred Jackson showed up big time and I finally got a big game out of Bironas. At 174.4 with KC Defense (-9) left, so I should move on.

Next week looks ugly with byes and my continued RB2 woes. If Vick is held out then I have a zero at QB and I need more than 2.3 from Taiwan Jones or David Wilson. :X

 
178.5 this week, looks like it will be enough to see another week. I have some byes this week, most notably Chris Johnson and Percy Harvin, will need some help from others to get through the next week.

 
Was feeling pretty good about my chances but looks like I'll be without F-Jax next week in addition to Lynch's bye. Let's go Royster. :unsure:

Yikes, currently sitting at 163.55 (still have Charles and HMiller tonight).

Rubbing right up against the current projected cutline myself after the SNF game. Wallace, McCluster and Hillis all still with a shot to contribute. Wallace almost certainly will, but the other two? Ehhhh.....Not holding my breath on it this week. Harvin's DNP coupled with Cobb's bye have made it a pretty ticklish business for me. *fingers crossed*

187 and I will live to see another week. But next week I am without ADP. He is the only player on my roster who has counted every week. My RB core is really weak without him. But a man can always have hope!
