Most Fantasy Football Leagues wrapped up regular season play this week...

If you didn't make the playoffs, why not?

Was there one particular play / game that cost you a victory?

What was your biggest draft bust?

If you did make it, is there one play or game that gave you the victory?

What was your smartest draft pick?

I play every year, and every year I am one of the worst teams...

I THOUGHT I was completely elminated from the playoff picture. The ONLY way I made it was if 3 specific teams lost, AND I outscored one guy by 40 points(tiebreaker reasons)!

Well, All three of those guys lost, and I Currently have a 54 point lead, Ihave no players left, he has Aaron Rodgers... I need him to score 14 or LESS points tomorrow.. Its NOT impossible, everything that I need to go right has...

11-2 and 2nd place in my league. the 1st place guy was 12-0, but looks like he's gonna lose this week. he left 3 empty slots on his roster today, so i don't know. maybe he's trying to motivate his players with a loss....

in a 16 team league that starts 2 QBs, so my best decision was using my first 2 draft picks to get QBs. benson has turned into a nice surprise for me, although K. smith has been a disappointment.

my IDPs have been solid, as the last few years i struggled to find consistent tacklers. still, due to my lack of depth at RB, i don't know if i can win the title -- only 3 weeks out of 13 have i outscored the league leader, and he beat me in our head to head.

If I dont make the playoffs, it comes down to the very first week.. I lost..
94.48 - 95.04

Yep, by a half point. I have Philip Rivers as my QB... on the MNF game of Week one, they played Raiders..last left to play, need 14 to win, and he puts up 13 and the last play of the game, with the clock running, SD makes a ballsy call, and delay draw right up the middle for the game winner. Instead of the logical throwing the ball to give me a chance...

That will be the reason I don't make the playoffs.. That and I played Tom Brady the week he put up 5 TDS in a quarter LoL

Biggest Bust: Brandon Jacobs
He has the yards, and until today, almost NO TDS!

Best Move: I had number 1 pick.. traded AP for guys first and 2nd pick, I got Gore and Jackson!

Worst Move: I traded 4 players, for TO.

I don't think I would of used either of my first picks on a QB. GREAT JOB!

yeah, most folks wondered what i was doing, but it was simple math: 16 team league, each player starts 2 QBs.....i don't think the commissioner really thought about this until the bye weeks started

That would of really pissed me off. Very bad planning... I like 10-12 people leagues... even those 2 extra people make a huge difference in your depth

Placed first. Top 3 picks were Fitz, Calvin Johnson and A-Rod.

A-Rod came up huge every week. Fitz just played steady and good all year.

Guessing Arod is Aaron Rodgers? I was looking at his numbers today, and your right, he has DOMINATED!

However, if you saw my above post, I am rooting very very hard against him. I need him to get 13 points or less..

If this happens Ill NEVER complain about fantasy again, because it will be a miracle I made it into the playoffs given the circumstances I had to do it.. (3 people had to lose, and had to outscore one guy by 40!! )

Good Luck D. Don't matter much to me, clinched my spot already. But I'm a big Pack fan, so still rooting for a W.

I took a cash league over for my brother in law. I've gone 4-1 since to get to third place. But this week I played the number one team. I'm up by 15 and he has Rodgers left tonight. So it will be close. The big problem is that the two teams behind me both won already and will jump me in the standings leaving me in fifth if I lose tonight. Only four teams make the playoffs that start next week.

As for my other leagues...Greg Jennings gets my bust award and Brees my MVP

2nd to last in our 12 team RX league heading into this week. Nothing but bad luck. I'll move up to 7th when the scores are tallied for this week. My team has outscored Dante on the season yet he is 9-4 and I will be 5-8 despite being the 3rd highest scoring team. I keep getting matched up with the top scorers (or at least did to start the season).
