Week 10 Summary / Week 11 Preview

Week 10 Summary:

Everyone has been very active on the Waiver Wire, picking up new players to replace injured / BYE week players.  Jenna made a very smart move by picking up Packer's RB Aaron Jones who rushed last week for 145 yards w/ 2 TD's (netting a total of 32.2 Fantasy Points)!  However, because everyone has been very smart about adjusting their rosters via Waiver Wire, there are very slim pickings left available on the Waiver Wire.


Week 10 provided some exciting FFL Team scoring matchups that came down to the last NFL Football game on Monday Night, between the NY Giants and SF 49ers. Chris and Jon, who had the only two players left to play, were both narrowly trailing their opponents (7.7 and 10.9 points respectively) at game time. Chris’ RB NY Giants Saquon Barkley scored 14.0 points and Jon’s WR SF 49er George Kittle scored 17.3 points.  These victories helped Chris (8-2) maintain 1st Place in Conference 1 and moved Jon (5-5) up into 2nd Place in Conference 2.

Jon led all FFL Teams with 189.8 points. Faith (9-1) had the highest scoring FFL Player, Philadelphia Eagles TE Zach Ertz with 40.5 points.

As of the end of Week 10, these are the current Standings:

Road to the Playoffs:

FFL Player point production is becoming as unpredictable as the NFL teams they play for. Surprise performances that have occurred during upsets such as the Tennessee Titans over the New England Patriots and one-game win streaks such as the NY Giants over the SF 49ers may change the dynamics of our Fantasy Football League during the next 3 weeks before the FFL Playoffs begin. Keep an eye on injuries and NFL Team roster adjustments based on NFL Playoff contenders coaches (play or no play) decisions.  For example, there may be scenarios in which an NFL team has already clinched a Playoff Spot.  Thus, regardless if they win or lose the remaining games of the NFL Season their Playoff Ranking will be unchanged.  In this scenario, these NFL Teams are very unlikely to play their key players.  This may affect the final weeks of Fantasy Football as you may have a player who consistently scored well for you, but is being benched.  

The Matchups for this week are as follows:

Uncle D dropped his 1st overall pick Le'Veon Bell last week, which turned out to be the right decision as it was confirmed yesterday that Bell will not be playing at all this year.
