Ryan8227 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Leading the league in most points scored by 60 points but also have the most points scored against me by 30. Sitting in 10th place out of 12 teams at 2 and 6. This is some bullmanure. My team (H2H 12 team) Dak Prescott AJ Green, Hopkins, Baldwin, Tate Lamar Miller, Ajayi, Aaron Jones, Ty Montgomery Gronkowski, Seferian Jenkins Made a ton of trades to get to where I am now, not paying off.

pegos Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Ouch, your team seems kinda crappy though. Not surprised you are 2-6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan8227 Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Yeah, my RB situation sucks. But your fantasy team's overall record is relative to the other teams in your league and how many points they score. Not necessarily how good your team is in a vacuum. I know switching to Rotisserie is the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know switching to Rotisserie is the answer. Rotisserie is not fun. Either way, this is what makes fantasy football fun, our inability to predict the future. Studs are not a guaranteed path to winning. We just try to mitigate the inevitable, that only one person in the league will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fastdoc Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I'm in the same boat. It can make for big swings though. Was 0-3 in last place but after today I'll be 4-5 in 4th place since all the guys with the same record are at least 100 pts behind me. All I need to do is hold 4th to get into the playoffs. From there, my one time last place team is strong enough to win the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rbgb Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 You always have a shot if you are in the playoffs, even if its the last seed. For the past 2 years in a money league I've been 1st place all season in both points and record, but haven't won yet. In 1st for points this year, but currently in 7th place in 14 team league. Soon to be 4-5 It happens. Thankfully in my Dynasty we reward high points with salary cap reductions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gourdeau Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 (edited) We have an all pay system for the 6th and final playoff spot, top 5 records get a spot, then the 6th spot goes to the team with the highest all play record out of the remaining teams. It rewards a team like yours that has been very consistent and just had bad luck going up against the highest scoring team of the week. So your score goes up against every other score for the week and the number of scores you beat, you get a W, ties don't count for anything, just a W. It's been a great way to keep teams with low records interested all the way to the end. Edited November 6, 2017 by Gourdeau 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleshot Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 It all just proves the point that fantasy football is 90% luck with the other 10% being luck. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Have seen it happen many times, right now in our league #2 score (24 behind first) also has the most PA (by 50) and is 5-4. His scores are all over the place from week to week, (70,88,108,124,66,71,64,71,93) and he faced a few high scores. Also a factor in PA, if you have divisions and play those teams more often than others, if the division has good scoring teams you have more PA. This owner's all play record isn't great at 58-40-1, or about the same as his 5-4 record. Sometimes the high scoring team loses a lot because of inconsistency, not simply playing the highest scoring team frequently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenzal rhomb Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 that's why this is probably my last year - its all luck. Plus the guy in my division who already has K Hunt who just traded for Leveon Bell so he has that backfield to start the next year - might as well just hand him my entrance fee and not play.
