Whew, made it in by the skin of my teeth at 146.40. Marshall’s 10.10 moved me up 4.1 points from the -6 he had to cover, giving me the final push. Of course, if he hadn’t scored that TD, one could argue that the cut would have been lower than 143.10, but I’m not sure if it would be lower than 142.3
Now, with Peterson back, I have a fighting chance.
QB Ryan/Luck…..feel good about this combo
RB McFadden(inj)/Peterson/Ridley/Mendenhall..with Benson waiting in the wings. I’ve given up on Wilson and Royster….think I’ll get two solid scores each week, but not a flex
WR Marshall/AntonioBrown(inj)/Decker/T.Smith/Blackmon/Wright/Gordon…hopefully Brown and Roth make it back to give me another option, but I feel good about getting 3 good scores from this bunch a week
TE Rudolph/Olsen/Chandler….9 out of 11 weeks I’ve gotten 10 or more from one of these guys, and usually 2 have counted…not enough firepower to keep up with Graham if he goes on a tear, though
K Prater/Lindell/Medlock/Zuerlein….each kicker has counted for me this season, even Medlock with a 22 in week 8
Def Chicago/Bills….usually it’s Chicago, but Buffalo came up big for me this past week, and has some ok matchups going forward
Overall, I feel like I have a shot at the playoffs, but no real shot at competing with the stud rosters that squeak through to the finals, unless somehow McFadden starts to perform.
