A few observations:
Three scores are locked in and I don't think anybody can catch Brad (with three players still going, Justin has an outside shot). However, if you have any player still going Monday night, it is entirely plausible that you could finish anywhere from 2nd place to 9th place.
One thing that makes any prediction impossible (and also makes rooting difficult) is that so many of the active players are dependent on each other for success. It's difficult to say precisely what you need to happen to beat an opponent when scores by Wayne, Clark, or Harrison, mean scores for Manning and the Indy K, when a score by Joseph Addai or Manning means a score for the Indy K (or to frame it conversely, Manning's score would need Wayne, Clark, Addai, or Harrison to score, and the Indy K will often require Wayne, Clark, Harrison, Addai, or Manning to score). When Indianapolis scores (points or yards), it is very rare that it will be isolated points that only affect one player.
This makes the Jacksonville players wild cards, as they depend on nobody else (or affect nobody else).

What I need going into Monday night? Shaun Alexander to step on a rusty nail.
ReplyDeleteA Kenton Keith touchdown...just what we all wanted!
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, I started Keith in my blogger invitational league. So bully for me.
ReplyDeleteReggie Wayne just passed me by Jon and Bryan. Hey guys.
ReplyDeleteI choose "not."
ReplyDeleteThat Peyton Manning sneak is good for business.
Manning TD runs make me sad. He needs to keep throwing TDs to catch Favre. And his runs are useless fantasy plays. Oh wait...I start him in that same blogger league. Bully for me.
ReplyDeleteThey probably think you're a genius. Are you still in first place?
ReplyDeleteNo. Stupid Colts' bye week. I start Manning, Clark, Vinatieri, and now Keith; without the Colts, my team was pretty bad. And today I need those Colts to go bananas--which they are. So there's that.
ReplyDeleteBut I'd rather see Reggie Wayne get TDs.
14 points is "going bananas?" Brady had 5 TDs at this point in the game last week.
ReplyDeleteIn that league the scoring is wild. I don't know, but so far those four players have probably got me 30+ points. It's a wacky high scoring league.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, we must all thank Rob--the fractional scoring is the greatest Revolution to our league since we opened up the bench for any positions. And it's better than that.
Off to watch Journeyman. Suckers.
