Re: Pick'em league
That game last night pissed me off. The Bears D was good all game but they suddenly can't stop anything with 2 minutes left and a 1 point lead. Should have just let the Steelers score on the kickoff return so they would have enough time to win it on a TD. They had a better shot doing that than allowing Pit to set up a 40 yard FG with 30 seconds left. Totally reminded me of the Seahawks.

Re: Pick'em league
What was with the offsides? It was like the Bears took stupid pills!
On those lines, my son is in a Fantasy league with me. Has the 3rd most points in a 12 team league but is 4 and 6 and in 9th place. Has twice been the 2nd highest scorer on the week and lost by a couple points, but last night was nuts!
He had Najee Harris. We are in a half point ppr league. The 4th quarter catch by Harris for 4 yards would have been about 0.8 points. Then later Ben decides to keep on a reas option costing what would have probably been a first down run for Harris and more than likely more carries for him. Costing more points. My son lost the game by 0.36. Or, less than the catch Harris had that was called back because the Bears D Line spent the entire night lined up off sides!
So, he has lost three games he should have won, but man was he mad about last night! 7 and 3 would be a lot better than 4 and 6. But even just 5 and 5.
No clue what was wrong with the Bears last night, but they blew it.

Never switch your pick. Guaranteed loss. I learned that the hard way a decade ago and never did it again and have never regretted it.57reasons wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 3:35 pmi was so happy with myself for paying attention during the week and switching my pick from the Cards to the 9ers when i heard the whole Murray/Hopkins/Green trio would be out. oops. at least the steelers didnt blow it, hard as they tried last night.Michael K. wrote: ↑Sun Nov 07, 2021 11:56 pmThis Cardinal game shocks me.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Sun Nov 07, 2021 10:27 pmAnd now the Chargers are going to crumble.

I had the Jags as my upset special for a bit... but I just couldn't get past how awful they looked against us. Dammit, that would've been an epic call.

Re: Pick'em league
I have stories for both sides, but I too switched my pick when I learned that D Hop and Murray were out. The Niners just shit the bed is all. That said, I only had three points on it. I doubt I would have made the switch if I had to start reassigning points.
Along these lines, I was in a pretty big Survivor pool many years ago. At $10 per entry the pot was still just under $4 K. I was in the final four late in the season. I had the 49ers and started looking ahead in weeks. I don't recall what changed my mind but there was another game that week that was available to me and I liked, and I liked the 49ers the following week. So? I switched. The 49ers lost, my team lost...and so did the other two that were in. The entire pool went to one guy that week, all because I looked ahead in weeks. I know never do that, simply make the pick available to me that I like best and move on!
