I had the best record and most wins. Right now my top scorer is Justin Jackson with 15 points. WTF. Still have Golf, Cooks, and McCaffrey to go. My opponent has Brees, Kamara, and J. Smith-Schuster. I am done by 10.

So frustrating. In the leagues I play in the top seeded team rarely wins the championship.
My team has scored 140+ the last seven weeks. I didn't really like it. I was hoping for a dud before the playoffs started. I've seen this before.

We're both hoping juju does shit and cooks goes off lol. If I can get another score, I'll have a chance.

It jsut sucks because I constantly am in the top three in points against. It's actually pretty ridiculous how often it occurs, so I tend to need to score a shit ton just to make the playoffs. Then, I get there, and that's when my team will throw up the dud. What usually makes it worse is I tend to go off when I'm out and would've beat every single team in the remaining playoffs. Happens every year.

Yup, right now on pace to have my worst scoring week since week one. I mean, overall it's not a big loss because it's only $50, but I was hoping to pay off my black friday credit card with the win lol.

Yup.Been there many times. Last year I had the 2nd highest PA, squeaked into the playoffs with the last spot, and ended winning the championship. This year I had the best record, most points, and one of the lowest PAs, and I'm having my worst performance of the season today.

Playing Golf over Watson was a mistake. That's what I get for looking at "expert" fantasy rankings.

Same here. Mahomes - 2nd worst, Thielen - worst, Zeke - floor game, Kittle - 2nd worst, Butker - worst.

LOL, even the Rams defense looks like ass against this garbage team. This is the third straight year that I have my absolute worst scoring week in the semis. I might not even get 100, the first time all season. I was averaging 142.

That really sucks. I averaged 143 and I'm projected for 119 points. Which would be my worst performance since week 1. I am up by 19 with McCaffrey left. My opponent has Brees and Kamara. I got a shot. Go Carolina defense tomorrow.

I hate playing against brees, he tends to rip me a new asshole. Especially when he's the last guy and in the playoffs. And I'm not talking a normal brees game, I'm talking 400+ and 5 tds or some shit. I always seem to catch him when that shit happens. Funny thing though, one year I got tired of it and just drafted him and ended up winning the whole thing lol.

It looks like I am all but guaranteed 1 spot in a Super Bowl, and if DJ Moore doesn't put up 30+ in a half ppr scoring I should be in a second. These were the 2 teams I was least confident in, the 2 teams I had Gurley and was putting up a lot of points I was bounced last week. If Gurley had a typical Gurley game last week, I would be in 4 Super Bowl, coulda/woulda/shoulda. Grateful to be in 1 (potentially 2) Championship games.

It was a really weird week. Every team still in it in my league are way down in points. I think the league average for points in my league this year was around 125-130 and the highest scorer so far this week was 113.

Yeah I noticed that too, only a handful of teams had a typical score...the rest were way below the league average on the year

So long as Kamara scores less than 21 standard points I have somehow earned a trip to the championship

I wish I could get that lucky. I went 0-4 this year when I put up less than 135. 10-1 the other way.
