What do you need tonight? (1 Viewer)

Blair Walsh

Mike Cox

14 point lead

vs

Victor Cruz

Ruben Randle

Brandon Jacbos

Going to come down to how limited Jacobs is. Or Cruz can go crazy and make it irrelevant.

 
Need 100 yards and a TD from Cruz. Not feeling very optimistic about it. If I'd only started Ryan over Foles, I'd not even have to worry about tonight. ugh!

 
I'm up by 59, enemy has ADP tonight. This league has generous bonus scoring and the Giants D sucks donkey balls, so I'm slightly nervous.

This is how I feel about starting Foles over RG3. Down by about 43 yards with Randle left to play and sweating it badly. Had I just started RG3 the guy I drafted to be MY GUY and not second guessed his past few weeks of mediocre fantasy days. I'd be able to just watch this game tonight and not worry about anything. Instead, I have to be worried. Nick Foles... never again.

No love for ADP is what I need. Up a hair over 20 points in a PPR league and only have him to face. Not feeling confident.

Rudolph 2 catches, 0 yards and 2 fumbles. Or one carry for no yards and a fumble. or a -17 yard run. So many possibilities!

 
Two teams.

Need 18.6 from Randle in PPR. Got about 16 total points from Spiller, Martin and Foles.

Need Cruz to outscore Peterson by 21. .5PPR bonus for long touchdowns.

 
Up 19 with Rudolph going up against Cruz. Not feeling as comfortable as most probably think I should. I could see Cruz having a monster game this week.

 
Indeed. No Jacobs tonight. Eli should throw it 50 times. If he doesnt throw for 300+, 3td's, color me stunned.

 
Need a mere int return for a td plus 5 solo tackles from Erin Henderson. Not likely. Two teams scored over a hundred this week and I was one of them - and am playing the other one. Story of my life. 2nd in scoring by a wide margin but 3-4. Guy I played this week in over 100 points behind me on the season but is 6-1. This game is all about schedule and luck.

Similar but I only have 10 pts.

Another league I need nonnegative from Freeman. Tempted to bench him.

Nervous, 59 points? Even with the craziest bonuses ever, you should be fine. I would prob fall asleep in this situation.

It's ADP. He's had 41 points twice this year in our league. Last year I had Doug Martin and he gave me 77 points in that crazy game vs. Oakland. Something like 250 yards and 4 TDs. It could happen. Also I'm a Giants fan and starting to expect the absolute worst outcome every week.

Only way he goes negative is if it's like Cutler and he gets hurt. Chances are much higher to lose on a stat correction then Freeman going negative. I lost on the KC stat correction last week.

I think the Giants get the W tonight. I'm a Giants fan as well and will readily admit that they are not a good team this year, but they have been looking better. If Eli can stop throwing picks, they'd have a couple wins this year. Offensive line looked much better last week and that was against a much better defense.

 
Need 45 combined from Nicks and Randle in PPR. It's happened against all of us plenty of times; I'd like to be on the right end of the whip for this one! Yes, I started Foles.

Yea 59 isnt as crazy as people think, in bonus leagues obviously. My league is bonus pts for 100+ yardage AND length of td's. AP has surpassed the 60 mark on a few occasions.

 
I need Nicks to outscore Freeman & Jacobs with a 2pt buffer. I'm hoping Jacobs is held out, otherwise I think I'm screwed.

That's crazy - I get 2 pt bonuses for every 100 yds, 1 pt for 40 yd TD, 2 pts over 60 yd TD... 60 pt game is practically unheard of.

Well yea thats not really a heavy bonus scoring system. Pretty light actually in terms of bonus pts.

Try 1 bonus pt for every 10 yds over 100. Then bonus pts for length of tds. (40 yd td - 4 bonus pts)

Not saying its easy to hit 50+, but its been done several times over the years. And yea its AP who's done it almost every time.

60 point games aren't an every week occurrence in our league, but they do happen 1-2 times a year on average.

50+ yard TD = 6 point bonus

100 yard rushing or receiving game = 5 point bonus. 200 yards = 5 more points, etc.

1 point for every 5 rushing attempts.

And it's a PPR league.

So a 60 point game for a player like ADP might look like this:

22 carries, 100 yards, including a 50+ yard TD

3 receptions, 100 yards including a 50+ yard TD

I'm not exactly ####ting bricks and expecting to lose, but if there is player who can do it, it's him.

Wow now thats bonus pts on steroids. + PPR! Lol.

That's a lot of bonus!

Personally I think the Giants stack the box and make Freeman beat them.

 
Jacobs sits I win. He touches the ball once I lose
According to FOX Sports' Mike Garafolo, Brandon Jacobs (hamstring) is doubtful to play in Monday night's game against the Vikings.

Garafolo is a former Giants beat writer that still has close ties to the team. Although Jacobs is officially listed as questionable, his Saturday setback spoke volumes. It leaves the Giants with only newly signed plodder Peyton Hillis and raw rookie Michael Cox in the backfield. Expect an extremely pass-heavy approach out of Eli Manning against Minnesota's leaky and banged-up secondary.

Your wish is likely coming true.

 
I'm up by 50 points and done. My opponent has Peterson and the Vikings defense. Based on season averages, teams playing the Giants are scoring 15 points a game in our league. AP's best game of the year was 33.

I'm the favorite of course, but I'm not counting it as a win until the game's over.

 
Blair Walsh to outscore Reuben Randle by 4 points in a league where all field goals are 3. Not holding my breath, but it could happen.
