Down 11.3 points.
My opponent has Matt Ryan going tonight.
I have Michael Vick going tomorrow night.
4 points per passing TD.
I'm somewhat reassured by the Saints having something to play for and being a top notch passing defense but still a little anxious... Ryan is usually solid when playing at home.
Projection difference at Yahoo! is just over 9 points.
Vick has outscored Matty Ice by more than the 11.3 differential each of the past 4 weeks.

Down 21 points, but still have Vick and Roddy White.
However, my opponent has McCoy and Matt Ryan.
Going to be tough to squeak this one out. I need Ryan to throw the ball to White exclusively (a few picks would be nice too), and I need to Vick to ignore McCoy.
I guess I need a similar result as last week for all 4 players involved.
In our scoring, Vick had 45.4 points last week, and White had 16, for a total of 61.4.
Ryan had 21.8 and McCoy had 9.7, for a total of 31.5.

I need McCoy to best Akers tomorrow night, in order to adbance to my championship game.
GB anybody silly enough to read this entire thread.
GB this thread. Sure, it seems to have no fantasy value to the board. BUT threads such as these suck in all the "all I need is x" from the other threads. Thus, net good.
Good Luck to all, except to any of you playing against me or anybody else on the thread.

Coming down to the wire tomorrow night. I'm down 107 - 105.5. I have McCoy at RB, he has Webb at WR. I THINK I'm in pretty good shape. Our QB scoring includes +1 for completions and -1 for incompletions, -3 for INTs and -4 for fumbles lost. So while a QB can score 35+ points with a good game, a QB with a low completion % and a couple of turnovers can end up with next to nothing.
I'm just hoping they get McCoy involved and it doesn't end up being the Michael Vick Show. It's a ppr league, so I'll be happy if they just get McCoy involved in the passing game.

You meant Webb at QB. I think the odds are stacked in your favor.
Down 10, PPR league. I have Vick vs his McCoy, hope we both win! Playing Hillis over Forte may cost me the championship, not to mention Sea Mike in instead of AJ....
3 leagues coming down to tomorrow night.
Up by 32, opponent had Harvin left in a return yardage league. Feel pretty good about that.
Up by 119, i have Eagles defense, he has Vick and Akers. Scoring is different in this league. Scoring is roughly 2.5 times higher. Rodgers got me 113 points yesterday. Feel pretty good about this one too, although you never know with Vick.
The one i am most nervous about, im down by 1.1, and have Desean Jackson left. I could have played Graham tonight instead, or Gerhart or Sidney Rice tomorrow. Normally i would not be nervous down by 1.1, but i think the FF gods dont like me in this game this week after some bad lineup decisions, Cooley dropping an easy TD and Manning sliding at the 1 yard line.

Well, technically he's starting Webb at WR, he already used Rivers at QB. Although he will be accumulating QB stats.
Im sure he meant Webb at WR, alot of leagues have him listed as a WR. Nice advantage to be able to start two QB's, even if one is terrible.

Well that just doesn't seem right. He deserves to lose.

Im up 6+ points after tonights game
I got Vick and Webb going tomorrow, he has Shady McCoy and Harvin...Im feeling as confident as possible since I got the #1 QB going plus another QB who has more guaranteed pts, but nothing would surprise me.

Why do we have two of these nearly identical threads going? Ah, no matter.Good results from tonight's game. Differential is now 21.82 with Vick waiting in the wings tomorrow.Vick has cleared that number in every single start this season with the exception of the first game against the Giants.I'm cautiously optimistic.

Well this should be a fun night, especially after Ryan didn't do nearly what I hoped he would last night to pad my lead. I was the number 1 seed with the best recor by 3 games and had the most points on the year. And of course this is the championship with a difference of $2500 riding on the game.
I'm up by 63 with no one left and my nemesis still has ADP, DJax, and Harvin going tonight. Yeah you could say I was pissed with the postponement but it is what it is now. It's normal scoring, PPR, 10 yards per point, 6 point TDs with a 3 point bonus for TDs over 40 yards.
So I could be in worse shape, but I've seen too many strange things this year. Of course my starting Rice, DMac, and Calvin with Jennings and TB Mike on my bench isn't helping matters either. So here's to hoping ADP doesn't go and that the Eagles get up quick and put it on cruise control.
But of course had this game been played on time, there's no doubt in my mind that I'd have some extra cash in my wallet.

Nursing a 47 point lead and he has Vick going tonight.
Wow talk about tense. Come on snow....make this grind it out low scoring affair as I need ADP in another league down 18 and he has Desean going.
So Desean needs to talk a crap tonight and be shut down and Vick needs to just be human and ADP needs to be the stud we all know he can be. We need a classic ADP 2 TD 200 yard night!

How did you even score 63 points with those players, much less have a 63 point lead?

I would drop that league like a bad habit. That is taking advantage of a system glitch. We all know he is playing as a QB your commish should have been on top of that.BS IMO and bad lineup integrity.

I am done up 60 pts. He has Vick and phi def left. I was 1-4-1 in this league and figured I needed to win out for $$$. I have won every game since . Difference between 1stand 2nd is $400. My furious comeback is looking good, hopefully it doesn't get shattered tonight.

I'm down by 22 pts. He has Maclin, I have Vick and the Eagles D/ST. Could happen if Vick puts up a rushing TD or two.

i am down 18.
i have webb and mccoy and he has desean. (standard scoring non ppr)
yesterday i benched roddy for webb at last minute because he had ryan and i was down a half a point so thought it was my best chance.
would have been down 8 if i had played roddy.
should be interesting to see if i made a bonehead move, a genius move, or it would not have mattered move.
i am still praying for no last minute favre concussion cure.

Start 2 QB League with 11 total starters. Starting lineup as follows with points:QB - BRoth - 27QB - Ryan - 13RB - Rice - 9.5RB - DMac - 9.0WR - Calvin - 9.0WR - Bowe - 30.0Flex - Charles - 25.0TE - ZMiller - 21K - Gould - 7.0K - Graham - 10.0Def - Ravens - 13.0Total Score - 173.5So we field a larger number of starters and with a 12 team league and 20 man rosters, it makes finding gems on the waiver wire that much more difficult. Of course my opponent has 110.0 points coming into tonight with ADP, DJax, and Harvin to come so it will be close.How did you even score 63 points with those players, much less have a 63 point lead?

Up 97.36-62.90. I'm done. He has Peterson left. Could have sealed it, but got cute for the first time and benched Charles for Jennings.
