The Syndicate

Woo, totally haven't picked a team since Week 4 or so.

Indians will win more World Series games this season than the Browns will regular season games.

Same with the Cubs/Bears.

Haha, I looked at that chart thinking it was Week 5's. :P

I'll swap out Minnesota for Cincinnati.

Weird question. Why are we not doing this new season in a new thread?

Awesome! 1 more player (sockface) would be perfect.

Voted.

Er, my offenses don't seem to want to show up today.

Midway through the early games, G-Man is up 31 to -9.

Honestly not much to look at though, since both of my offenses don't play until the next round of games, as well as G-Man's defense.

Good luck to you. May the best Bengal win.

We're going to the Super Bowl!

I'll take the Falcons.

The Cardinals just continue to throw tons of points on the board week after week.

If I advance to the finals, then at least now they have something to play for next week.

Jacksonville Jaguars

The Browns beat the 49ers last week. Who are you going to pick Golden?

I have the worst PA, but I'm in first.

I'll pick the Miami Dolphins.

Are we picking offenses?

Well you did vote for all of the teams to make the playoffs.

Lol@ San Diego. They knew what I needed.

To be fair, I was the second-highest scorer this week. :P

And I think my PF speak for themselves.

Yup, Bengals D is healthy again.

But looks like leggy's teams just played even better than mine.

Let's hope the Bengals defense can get healthy by this coming Sunday.

G-Man / 5-5 / 332 PF / 175 PA
leggylorlyb / 5-5 / 143 PF / 174 PA

This league is nuts!

Technically the wrong thread, but eat shit regardless

I was talking about picking up Washington's offense because I play you this week. :P

Hey DH, how about that free agent pickup?

I'll take Washington Redskins offense.

Never thought I'd say that either.

Hey, I just remembered G-Man is probably still looking after his wife's new baby.

Metalmarsh89 (1 offense off)
Turnip Head (1 offense off)

So this week only Turnip Head and I have to draft supplementary teams to play. I haven't done the math on the current standings, but I was 3 games up on TH before this week, so he'll be going first.

Here are the teams to choose from.

• Atlanta Falcons - on bye
  Cleveland Browns
  Jacksonville Jaguars
  Miami Dolphins
  Oakland Raiders
  San Francisco 49ers - on bye
  Tennessee Titans
  Washington Redskins

You're up TH.

Me too!

I need San Diego to score 39 points tonight to beat Golden. They've got the potential, but that's still a pretty large amount.

When is the last time I didn't take down the mighty marmot?

Recruitment I guess. :P

Actually, I forget your character.

I've been meaning to ask, what do the last two columns in your charts mean, G-Man?

If my math is correct, I edged G-Man this week 40-36. That was close.

G-Man has a pretty weak SOS. :P

I guess I'll just make do with their defense.

Methinks you spoke too soon. They really let the Texans back in that game. Leggy finished with only 2 points for the week though, so you need four touchdowns from your offenses to tie. It's most likely a win for you as long as Arizona doesn't fall flat again this week.

I honestly would have picked their offense instead, given the choice. :P

But yeah, that's a lot of garbage time points to give up. Yeesh.

Nobody wanted Miami offense this week.

Miami Dolphins defense.

Ah rats.

San Diego has 17 points so far and Carolina has given up 23 points so far.

Just need 15 more combined points by San Diego and Seattle to pull one out.

That must also be why Epi is terrible at it. He only succeeds at things which actually require skill.

He's actually still 5th out of 8 in points scored. He's just been a victim of unfortunate scheduling. Same could be said for his fantasy team.

That's because it's EZ!

I think I'll win again this week too.

Epignosis's New Orleans offense plays Atlanta, and Minnesota offense plays Kansas City. That's one bad matchup and one good matchup. But then his Carolina defense goes into Seattle to play, not a good matchup.

For my team, Arizona offense plays Pittsburgh, a decent matchup, and San Diego offense plays Green Bay, a bad matchup. But Cincinnati defense plays Buffalo, which is a good matchup for me.

G-Man wrote:Epi has the weaker record, so he gets to select first. Since he needs two substitute teams, he has to wait for a 'second round' of sorts. This gives us a selection order of:

So not only did I have to pick last twice in the pre-season draft, but I (presumably) have to pick last in the supplementary draft as well?

That Thursday game was a mess. Get well soon Big Ben.

I picked up Baltimore defense in your league, and they almost let me down.

But thankfully Forsett finally got some yards on the ground.

I don't know how well my teams will do this week, but I don't see TH's teams doing particularly well.

The biggest decider will be my Arizona offense is playing his St. Louis defense. Arizona has proven to be pretty formidable on both sides of the football.

Good point.

But I guess I also never expected the Saints, or even the 49ers to be as bad as they've played this season.

After tonight's game, I'll be 1-7-1 in my regular fantasy leagues, but 3-0 in G-Man's EZ fantasy league.

I know Arizona has a better offense this year, but I didn't expect them to lead the league in scoring thus far.

A lot of weeks left, but I'm happy with the way my teams have performed thus far.

G-Man wrote:Epi lost. Even though two of MM's teams canceled each other out, MM had Arizona, who scored 48 points. I am stunned.

I also see that my match against MP boils down to the final score of the Dallas-Philly game. If Dallas wins by a touchdown, we tie. Any more, MP wins. Any less or is Dallas loses, I win.

Arizona is clearly a force to be reckoned with. So is Cincinnati's defense.

Epignosis wrote:Oh, and it appears I'm up against MM in both things.

And you don't have Kirby on your team this time.

My defense plays one of my offenses this week. So now I'm depending on Arizona to light it up against Chicago.

DharmaHelper wrote:Fuckin' jokers picking MP to win over me.

You scored about what I expected for your roster. Had MP's defense (Houston) played to last year's form against the Chiefs and their mediocre offense, he could easily have been in striking distance. He needs 40 points which isn't impossible if the Giants play as bad as they did last year.

He should have listened to me and picked the Titans. Marcus Mariota man.
