Fantasy The Terrible Fantasy Manager / Bad Beats Thread

[Exe Gesis]

You'd have such roster diversity that in every NFL game you'd be cheering for and against every player.

You'd have to be non-partial to the actual sport/league itself, have no team, or don't really care, in it just for the money. I know a guy who gambles hard on the NBA, and is really good at winning "big" money all the time, but doesnt like the game, follow the league, or even watch it much, has no team, just found he had a knack for it so almost exclusively gambles on it, nothing else.

Yeah, some of the leagues are just redraft where they dont even have waivers, once you draft thats it, best ball and offense only

Don’t mind that

Good luck to all those managers finalising those incorrect lineups tonight.

Any tales of woe heading in to tomorrow fellow managers? Outside of a few should picked player A over player B for a better score I have hopefully survived Terrible Fantasy Manager/Bad Beats this week.

4 of my 5 teams are on fire this week.

Also ended up on the right side of the Calvin Ridley lottery. 31 points after 2 catches last week for 20 yards.

It's mostly my own fault (only took over the team this season but should've planned a touch better in any case) but I've had no starting TE this week. Only realised that once it was too late haha.

Byes and injuries can cripple any team.

If that is in BF Bowl you are going to win anyway so didnt hurt too much.

It is - should still win but when the only two players left are Hurts and Kelce, it makes it all a bit more uneasy haha.

I've got pretty lucky in some fixtures this year.

Get out of this thread then!!

I'll see you all next week...

 

[AJ_2000]

A great way to negotiate trades

Just a reminder that almost half the slate will happening by Saturday afternoon with all the early thanksgiving games so best set your lineups and hit the waiver wire early

 

[J Shuttlesworth]

I have too many teams when life get's busy haha

Kyren Williams still sitting on IR with 41.6 points so far

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Completely forgot about the early Thanksgiving game, so forgot to sub out the injured Aaron Jones for Zay Flowers. Won't make a difference to winning or losing, as my team is awful this year, but that's annoying.

Edit - 5 catches for 25 yards and a touchdown, and a 37 yard jet sweep for a touchdown for Flowers. Yay.

 

[AJ_2000]

Lost by 7 points ... Not usually a bad beat until you realise their RB acquired a total of 2.8 points, and no production frim their TE in Kittle. Should be an easy win... except 1.2 points each from Thielen and Shultz.
But the real kick in the guts was the -6 I picked up on Defense with Washington (who I subbed in last week due to a bye and The proceeded to get lit.up.bynthe Giants). If they'd managed to squeak out a single point I would have won this shitshow

 

[manureid]

I traded this guy:



For this guy:



Probably cost me the win this week.

Actually, quite disappointing haha, could have been quite the upset.

Good reason to leave out Hollywood Brown

You must have shares in every player in the NFL. Makes it hard to be hoping a player does well because you are probably playing against them as well somewhere. How do you stay on top of waivers and stuff? I reckon spreading yourself too thin makes it harder to be 'good'.

Pretty horrible lately on staying on waivers lately especially for teams that are struggling.
There are certain players i tend to avoid and tend to own alot of same players which can work out horrible and well at same time.
My draft crushes especially in 2021 of Lance and Pitts have set a few teams back but then my draft crushes of this year of stroud, tank and laporta seem to be balancing it out.
