Wow. So, yeah, whether Meachem gets credit for the TD or not will have an impact on many teams hovering around the cut line.As posted in the other thread, CBS definitely has it as a Defensive TD.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been by a computer much this weekend... I just looked up the stats on nfl.com and cbssports.com (TFS stats are pulled from cbs) and looks like Meach is correct for 28.2 points (8 for 142 and 1TD) and the other TD is showing up as a fumble return... Not sure on the D as I didn't have the rules in front of me to add it up.. We'll adjust it based on how Joe says he will score it to reflect on TFS correctly though.

As a few people already pointed out, there really isnt any way Meachem can be credited with the fumble return TD. The contest rules are pretty clear about that.

Actually, TFS scoring is not crediting the defense because I manually overrode it. I verify the scoring through my own means and I just replicate what that feed does (it is 99.9% accurate to FBG, as opposed to TFS native scoring which is only about 95% accurate...no data on that but you get the point). Obviously our scoring is NOT official, so we're just making our best estimate. With what I know today, if I had to guess I'd say that FBG will score it on the DEF side, since I remember something from the last go around on this (the incident Joe refers to in his email) that the NFL considers any changed possession fumble recovery a "defensive" play. I agree that this can't count as a Meachem TD, as it's not a run or a pass. Since "ALL" TD's will count, I think that means that the D/ST picks up the goofy scores. Just my opinion, not any official ruling or insight from FBG...

If either team doesnt pick it up, the split could be at 140

Here's to blowing past 180 a week after I missed the cut by 2 points. Sadly, I checked out random shots this week and had the Rodgers pass to Driver not been killed at the 2 and went for a TD, I'd be dancing in the finals again. 
Would have caught a huge break this week too since my RB's have a total of 1.9 pts between all 5 of them...really would have helped the UQ of the team.

I was really hoping that Rogers would blow chunks tonight - I did not need him to score for me but I was hoping to lose some Rodgers owners. Oh well, pushing 200 and climbing

And I think that play just punched my ticket to the top 250... "Mr. Monday Night", Jermichael Finley!!!

And Finley could of joined him too -

Rodgers and Finley - 60 plus points and counting.

Rodgers only second to Harvin as most popular players in the finals. Both on over 180 teams if we don't move too much more from here...

gonna be a few before TFS goes final. I wasn't live scoring by hand tonight...

163.25 is the projected cutoff, per the Fantasy Star Guys
Now it is 164,25...
ctriopelle
Footballguy
Not much bunching at the cut. I get 164.25 as my number, but with stat corrections it could realistically be anywhere from 163.0-165. PLEASE NOTE: this also assumes the Meachem TD scores as a NO DEF score. I did a check to see what happens if I drop the score from the NO def and believe it or not, it doesn't really move things much, it's actually still in the range I stated. It would change things for a few teams though.

Sorry about that first one...that was a typo. see my post above for my disclaimers for those of you near the line.TFS Is represented in the finals, OC made it with flying colors. Can't say the same for FBG Staffers, Hicks got crushed this week. TFS almost went 2/2 in the contest, FBG went 0-fer!Now it is 164,25...

174 and change here... can't believe I made the top 250! I don't think I'm unique enough to win it all, but I'm happy to get this far.

Great Way to End the Season - #6 - High Score of the Year for my team (to date!)
My team is not that unique, and I was hoping for Rodgers to lay an egg, but it is what it is.
On to the playoffs

Congrats to those advancing you rotten %!#@s.
ADP and Ryan Grant scored me a whopping 13 points this week and that was all she wrote.
I have to say this has been the most fun I've had in FF in a long time. Thanks to footballguys.com for the contest, thanks to the guys at thefantasystar.com for making it nice and cheap for me to obsess over the stats, and thanks to The Fanatic for letting me get farther than him.

You mean like DW and Leon Washington?Missed the cut by 5 pointsOh well, pretty good for the first try. Next year I know not to waste money on RBs with injury histories (R.Brown, Parker).

DW and Leon both outperformed R.Brown and Parker by leaps and bounds, so... yeah, I would have been happier with them.You mean like DW and Leon Washington?Missed the cut by 5 points
But not when it matter. And neither of them had injury histories.DW and Leon both outperformed R.Brown and Parker by leaps and bounds, so... yeah, I would have been happier with them.You mean like DW and Leon Washington?Missed the cut by 5 pointsOh well, pretty good for the first try.

I keep saying I can't believe how far I've gone but I'll say it again after finishing 21st this week. I just wish I had an RB besides Kevin Smith and a hurt Michael Turner.

I'm sorry DW and Leon got hurt, but it has nothing to do with my premise. There were reasons to think R.Brown and Parker would not last the whole year and I ignored them. I thought they were good buys at their price, but obviously their prices reflected a slightly higher risk factor. Next year I will pay a premium for the guys I deem more likely to finish the season. That is all.

Surprised my team made it this far. Would be really cool to be at least in the hunt for some big $$$ come week 16.
QB - Aaron Rodgers - 27
QB - Carson Palmer - 21
RB - Adrian Peterson - 50
RB - Leon Washington - 12
RB - Ahmad Bradshaw - 8
RB - Jamaal Charles - 7
RB - Ladell Betts - 2
WR - Greg Jennings - 32
WR - Chad Ochocinco - 27
WR - Vincent Jackson - 21
WR - Hakeem Nicks - 4
WR - Patrick Crayton - 4

TE - Jermichael Finley - 3
TE - Chris Baker - 1
PK - Ryan Longwell - 3
PK - Robbie Gould - 2
TD - San Diego Chargers - 5
TD - Green Bay Packers - 3
Having only 3 healthy RBs isn't good, but I imagine I have a shot IF:
1. Adrian Peterson decides to become... well... Adrian Peterson. I can't imagine too many of the remaining teams have him.
2. Vincent Jackson turns back the clock around a month and starts performing again.
3. Greg Olsen puts up a few weeks that are worthy of being counted.
4. Ray Rice has 2 or 3 weeks like last week. I imagine he's really high percentage in this thing.

No, Mo is just crying over spilled milk. Of all the weeks to lose, week 13 has to be the hardest
Correct.Effing Grant, Maroney, MCoy, Dallas/Minn defs. If they have a half-way decent week, I'm sitting in the final 250.Not a serious post, BTW.
