The Playoffs are finally here!!
After a grueling season full of ups and downs the playoffs are here. Only the top 6 teams made the playoffs with the top 2 seeds getting a bye in the first round. Here is what the Playoff Bracket looks likeNotes from Week 13:
- The Vikings, Eagles and Patriots all sit at 10-2 currently.
- The Browns may never win a game ever again.
- Russell Wilson deserves some serious credit for his play this year!
This week there are only two games on the slate!
First Round of the Playoffs
Harambes Revenge @kryptocek vs @mikeshuh
This matchup is going to be a lot closer than the other playoff matchup we have. Harambes Revenge @kryptocek and @mikeshuh have some of the best tight ends in the game going up against each other in Jimmy Graham and Travis Kelce this week. Each of these teams are relatively healthy, but the uncertainty of TE Zach Ertz is of concern for @mikeshuh. Harambes Revenge @kryptocek's Jameis Winston has been wildly inconsistent this year due to an injury and some off the field issues. In order to win in the playoffs, you usually need all of your players to have decent games and a few players to have big games. Harambes Revenge @kryptocek will need a big game from Jameis Winston if he decides to start him of Big Ben. @mikeshuh has been about as good as anyone with picking up free agents this year. All of @mikeshuh's starting running backs have been on other teams this year and he needs a big week from his running back trio. I expect this game to go down to the wire!!Prediction: Harambes Revenge @kryptocek 135.88 | @mikeshuh 132.23
First Round of the Playoffs
@sevinwilson vs @Shenanigator
Fantasy Football is an interesting sport. Injuries have such an impact on the game and they have decimated @sevinwilson this year. The last half of the season @sevinwilson has struggled to be consistent due to these injuries. Nearly all of his receivers are questionable this week, but should play. In the end, it probably won't matter much as the squad of @Shenanigator is loaded and has been playing incredibly well the last half of the season. They are definitely peaking at the right time. Antonio Brown has been a fantasy machine this year for @Shenanigator and I expect him to put up another 20+ points this week. Josh Gordon, who played his first game since 2014 last week had a solid game for @Shenanigator. AS he continues to get more comfortable, look for him to put up even more points this week for @Shenanigator. This matchup is going to be a blowout in favor of @Shenanigator and he will be on to the semi-finals to face off against A team has no name @boatsports90.Prediction: @sevinwilson 115.39 | @Shenanigator 141.1

The struggle of fantasy, so much luck involved as well staying healthy and right matches. I have a semi final in my other league and he has GRONK and thankfully got suspended this week huge blow for him.

You are exactly right! Timing and injury luck is so important! In my other league I have scored like the 4th or 5th most points, but have the second to worst record!

Yeah man its tough, first place guy in my other league has 4th most points. Not the case in our league Paradise is going to run away with it haha.

Haha, we'll see. I'm really good about leaving a metric shit ton of points on my bench.
By the way, regarding the funds that are going toward the league payout, are any of them being held as Steem Dollars? If so, I'd strongly urge you to sell them, considering the absurdly high price they're selling for at the moment. ($5.55 each)
