Well you may not pick any better Tom, but I really like your avatar. Tom Landry was the classiest of all head coaches.
Ball So Hard may knock me off the 6-0 perch in FChat II this week. Two WR on bye and Christian Kirk hasn’t done jack tonight. I’m making a comeback in FC I at 3-3 but a long way to go and my bench is weak.
Well I should get the TNF Genius Award. On Tuesday I picked up the Denver defense in both FC I and II. I got 32 points, which I think is the most I have ever seen a defense score. The other bonus was I had Sanders in FC I, he caught a TD pass and threw a TD pass!
Nice move! Arizona defense was supposed to have a good game also, but that didn't work out so well. At least I also had Sanders to make it not hurt so much.
Whoo-wee. My WRs are sucking it up thus far. All three, cipher for the first half. Image Unavailable, Please Login T
The other day I was noticing the substantially different statistics between the 2 Ferrarichat leagues and thought of posting some of the highlights here but I didn't do it. But now, after seeing how week 7 is unfolding, it got even more interesting. So here are some interesting stats after week 6. The first thing that really grabbed my attention was the difference in points scored between the highest and lowest scoring teams in the 2 leagues. In FC2, the highest scoring team is in 2nd place and has scored 715 points. The lowest scoring team is in 10th place with 422 points, creating a difference of 293 points! Compare that to FC1 where the highest scoring team is in 1st place with 607 points and the lowest scoring team is in 12th place with 523 points. That is only an 84 point difference, less than 1/3 the points in FC2. This corresponds to much closer standings. Where FC2 has a team at 6-0 and one at 0-6 and everything in between, FC1's leader is at 4-2 and the last place team is at 2-4. This immediately struck me, that the last place team in FC1, Whiskey A Gogo, is only 2 games out of first place, and even their point deficit would not be insurmountable with a couple blowouts. Of course it is not actually possible for Whiskey to be in first place in just 2 games because of the schedule but they can be in 3rd. This is where week 7 comes into play. Based on how the week 7 results are looking, everything that needed to happen for Whiskey to make it from 12th to 3rd in 2 weeks is happening, other then the fact that he needs to score more points. But regardless of the point totals, if things go as needed in week 8, there will be 8 teams with 4-4 records, and, potentially, still only 2 games between first and last. The big scoring difference between the leagues would suggest a more even distribution of player talent, which theoretically could come from more experienced fantasy team managers. I would imagine this would't happen if everyone used the autodraft. So comparing how many people autodrafted could be interesting.
Interesting analysis. The thing I noticed is that apart from Paul, no one has had a significantly tougher than average schedule thus far. My opponents are only scoring a tad above average thus far. My team just stinks. Looking over my team's performance. I think I've done OK @ QB & K, very well @ TE (Kelce). Drafting last, I'm not surprised that my RBs and WRs have stunk it up as all the can't miss studs were more or less gone by then. The loss of Fournette - my top draft choice - has not helped. The biggest under-performers, however, I think have been the Jags D. They are nowhere near the form of last year. I'm hoping their locker room fight of yesterday will right the ship! T
Image Unavailable, Please Login Yoo hoo, Allen Robinson II? Your dad called; he asked that you drop the "II" from your name. You're embarrassing the heck out of him. This turkey is now available on the waiver wire. Good luck, I hope he's less putrid for y'all than he was for me. T
John, I'm on my second manhattan and I don't have a clue what you are saying. Could you boil it down to one sentence? And Tom, "My team just stinks.", you nailed it!
Man I suck at this. I started out 3-0 in FC1 and 2-1 in FC2. Now I'm 3-3 in both leagues and haven't come close to any projections in like three weeks in either league.
Well, in another league I was 6-0, THEN Melvin Gordon didn't play in London and it was too late to swap him out, my other RB was Carlos Hyde, he didn't play/suit for JAX, and to top it off I was too late to swap out Gronkowski. Result? I played a guy who isn't 'playing' anymore, he had a RB that is on IR, a TE that is on IR, a kicker that got cut, and the rest of his team got him 34 points total. I had Mahomes and Emanuel Sanders... I won....
Yea, I'm just hoping I can crawl into the number 8 spot in II, but then I'm not exactly a shoo in for I either. Of course a big help in II is I'm playing Tom this week!
