156.8 through now, still some chance at improvement. Just keep chugging along, although this is my lowest score of the year. I started my plan for the year avoiding wk 10 byes, but I ended up with 4/9 WRs out by the end, so I was sweating it a bit going into today.

So much for the news that Laurent Robinson looked ready to contribute.My calculations give Favre 11.5, so Bradford needs to beat that. I have Aaron Hernandez (-8.4) and Deion Branch tonight (-8.7), and that's it. 124 after the 1:00s. I ain't going to make it!!!!!! :thumbup: :wall:
There he is - 2 catches for 24 for Laurent :popcorn: -QG

Oops.Looks like I am at 129 going into tonight. Not good. Had Rivers off, and Bradford and Favre didn't really step up.
 
this contest is like texas-hold'em tournament... good hands early don't matter as much as getting the good hands late when there are only 3-4 people left...

kinda how this week is going, some key players have gone off and if you aren't holding any of them, the turk will come calling... as the amount of teams that are left shrinks, the bigger effect a few players scores will have on who gets cut and who stays in...

signing off... barring some Brady Sunday night magic...

Still got overtime for the Rams, man, keep hope alive!-QG
 
143.5 after day games, need Brady to drop a load tonight to save me. Turk's sim has the cut predicted at high 140's , and I need Brady to top Anderson's 21.1 to count. Not goot when Witten is my last playing TE and he gets 1 stinking 7 yard catch, coupled with all 3 of my playing D's unable to beat 4 points...

Not liking my chances right now...

 
Sorry Balco :no:

After the 4pm games I have myself at 168.6 + (Deion Branch - 10.8).

Cautiously optimistic.

Good luck folks!

My best week yet.

Sitting at 206.40 with the following to go:

RB: Jerome Harrison and Sammy Morris (-12.5)

WR: Deion Branch (-10.8)

K: Graham Gano (-21.0)

Big weeks from:

Matt Ryan 34.3

Andre Johnson 29.6

Calvin Johnson 28.8

Jermaine Gresham 28.0

Anthony Fasano 24.2

Olindo Maro 21.0

I'm not sure why, but I was fearing this week. See you all next week!

If the cut ends up in the high 140's I am pretty much done. I can't see it being that high though.
 
Welll......#1 in the Power Rankings last week and #8 I believe the week before....I'll need a miracle to get through this week unless a low cut :fishing:

119 with all of Brady's points and the diff of Hernandez over Scheff....what a waste and POS Marshall has been this year :no:

 
Wow... 2 TDs between all of my guys... worst week ever... I need some major scoring in the next two games....

Sitting at 106.5 with Brady (-21), Santana Moss (-4.8), Deion Branch (-6.9), Chris Cooley (-8.3), and the Eagles D (-3).

Looking bad for me...

Not a biggie, but I think Gresham is at 28 not 27.5
You are right!Error in the fantasy star number :eek: -QG
I think the initial report on gresham's last catch had him at 9/80, and maybe thats the feed the fantasy star #'s used? Who knows.. as long as FBG has them right in the end. :shock:
 
done at 141. thank you Jermaine Gresham :shrug:

scratch that. Gronkowski still contributing at the flex :thumbup:

In that percentage owned part, not much scoring for RBs... maybe the cut will be in the 120's... atleast I have hope that happens, till Doug posts the pre-monday night sim...

Oh and.. me 3 on the VD part... ugh...

I'd make low 140's a lock, with a good chance it's high 140's or more. While there were a lot of players off this week, there were also a lot of high scoring players. This is also our most difficult hurdle yet, with 30% getting whacked...

is this just a total guess?
 
Foster nothing special this week, I notice a lot fewer post in this thread...

Non-Foster owner here, which makes me a long shot I know, but moving on this week, thanks to R. White, Ryan and Mega..

168 with Moss (-1.4) and Wallace (-6.7) and Growkoski still earning.

I have McFaddan and Bradshaw. I'm hoping a lot of McFadden/Foster combos got cut this week. Bradshaw/Foster owners could be in trouble also if they don't score big at WR.

It's a heck of a lot farther than I have ever made it, and if I do slip into the final, it would take a lot of luck for me to do anything there.

 
Finished with 176.6.

Big games from Roddy, Gresham and Dez Bryant helped despite having only D. Anderson at QB this week. Rodgers back next week.....whew.

educated guess from Drinen's sim run (post Thursday game). His average cut was about 146. Haven't seen too much to make me believe it will be any lower than that, and there are quite a few big numbers out there.Looks like I pulled a rabbit from my hat too with Brady, I also forgot that I had Branch yet to go tonight (-12.5). Up past 157 now, which will be getting it done for another week!

Pretty much everyone has Foster which probably has a lot to with the non-conversation as well :thumbup:McFadden/Foster combo is on 133 rostersBradshaw/Foster combo is on 861 rosters (meaning that even if every single team eliminated this week had both of these guys there'd be about 161 left)McFadden/Foster/Bradshaw combo is on 40 rostersRather than rooting against specific Foster combos, I think you just need to root against Foster himself :yawn: -QG
 
Ownership Percentage for the guys playing Monday night.

It's not very high at all. The average number of players per team is about .7 to give you some idea.

I left out guys on IR. Is there really only 1 WR for Washington in the contest at this point?

Anyhow, here you go:

Vick 3.0

Kolb 0.3

McNabb 0.6

Portis 5.3

J Harrison 5.4

McCoy 3.0

S Moss 11.6

Avant 2.2

Maclin 1.6

DeSean 2.5

Cooley 10.3

Celek 4.7

F Davis 0.9

Gano 6.3

Akers 2.8

Philly D 5.7

Wash D 2.5

anybody got a link to yellowdogs mfl site...only have it saved at work....wanted to check it..........trouble searching this thread...thanks....

 
129.9 with McCoy (-1.4) left. I am worried. Tonight will probably have moved the cut.

I would have been fine if it hadn't been for Steve Smith's injury.

Foster and Williams had sub par weeks, which will have a big effect.
