The championship matchup was a great one between @paradise-found and A team has no name @boatsports90. Coming into this matchup everyone thought these defenses would have put up some serious points, but combined they scored 6 points. For @paradise-found his running backs played consistently as they have done all year. The difference in this matchup was the wide receiver unit for @paradise-found. The three receivers for @paradise-found combined to score around 30 points. The tight end duo for @paradise-found was a let-down in his view as Evan Engram and Greg Olsen only combined for eight points.

3rd Place Game
Harambes Revenge @kryptocek vs @Shenanigator
Score: Harambes Revenge @kryptocek 143.54 | @Shenanigators 101.9
Coming into the matchup I thought the score would have been a little bit closer. Harambes Revenge @kryptocek had six players score in double figures while @shenanigator had five players score in double figures which would make you think it would be a close game but Harambes Revenge @kryptocek ended up winning by 40+ points. Comparing the players with one another Harambes Revenge @kryptocek won every match-up but one. This was where the difference in the game was. Dion Lewis scored 32 points at running back and Tyreek Hill and DeAndre Hopkins each scored 16 points for Harambes Revenge @kryptocek. The kicker and defense combo scored 37 points for Harambes Revenge @kryptocek while the duo scored 31 points for @shenanigator so this was not that big of a difference. The wide receiver unit for @shenanigator combined to only score 22 points which ended up being the difference in the game. Both of these teams had a great year but the star power of Dion Lewis is what ended up being one of the biggest difference makers this week. Congrats to Harambes Revenge @kryptocek for finishing in third place and @shenanigator finishing in fourth place.

Was an absolute joy playing in the league! Quite pleased with my 3rd place finish, and it also make my 3rd place in my other league which I should have ended up winning if I didn't bench Hopkins and Ajaji in the semi finals a little easier to handle! Will absolutely love to take part again next year!
At this rate it looks like we will be having more then 3 leagues next year as everyone has seen how much of a blast it has been! The few extra SBD doest hurt either haha :)
Thanks again man!

Thanks for participating!! You had a great run and congrats on the 3rd place finish!! I am sure we will have more than 3 leagues next year with the growth of Steemit! I doubt there will be much attrition from this league as most will want to join again next year!! Gurley carried me these last two weeks and my scores would have put me in a good position, but three weeks ago I had an awful performance! Timing and luck plays a big role also!

The struggle of fantasy, timing and luck. Hard to get them both at the same time.

That is very true! And then you throw in variance and turnover and injury luck

@kryptocek How deep was your team in the other league that you could bench Hopkins? That guy was matchup and quarterback proof this year.

Man I was an absolute idiot I played Funchess, Baldwin, Fits ( combined for 8 points ) over Hopkins because he was up against Jags defence and thought he would get no points. So the ball was in my hands and I **** the pooch. Cost me 600$ but that's fantasy for ya!
