Week 11 Results for FFGuidebook.com

My week in review:

Seven major fantasy football leagues for me this year:

Three are Expert leagues. Two of those Expert leagues are associated with my rankings, projections and mock drafts in Fantasy Football Index magazine and Fantasy Football Pro Forecast magazine. The other is the now annual FFPC Pro's vs Joes Challenge. The Fantasy Index Expert Auction and FFPC Pro's vs Joes are also Draft Masters format so draft and forget.

Of the four remaining money leagues, one is the Fantasy Football Players Championship Main Event, two are FootballGuys Players Championship teams and the last is my local league.

Week 11 Results: Wins are in BOLD

Fantasy Index Expert Auction-Draft Masters: Loss 5-6 versus all the other teams this week. Stayed at 7th place overall. Out for the season --Ryan Grant, DeAngelo Williams and Anthony Gonzalez is not helping!!!

FFPC Pros vs. Joes League #7 - Charles Jefferson's Z-28's: Win, went 9-2 ( we play every team each week), Rapid movement in this no transaction league.) Up to 2nd overall

Fantasy Football Pro Forecast Expert League-Loss 8-3 record (14 week season)

FFPC Main Event "Clark W. Griswold" Saturday Online League #21: Win now 8-3 (5th overall in Total Points)

Fantasy Index Magazine "Ask the Expert" Question: How much stock do you place in concerns about players mailing it in during late-season games?

How much (if any) stock do you place in concerns about players mailing it in during late-season games? Do worries about teams "quitting" affect your rankings?

I do not worry about players giving up during late season games. They are professionals and if nothing else should be trying for the best stats for their next contract negotiation. Some may take plays off but those players will do so whenever during the season, not just at the end. My rankings are more likely to reflect a downgrade for a player on a team that will clinch early and rest star players (think IND the past few years).

Quarterbacks in skirts...I used to laugh at that Jack Lambert comment. Now I think it may be time for them to wear those skirts


Don't get me wrong I am all for protecting players from malicious hits that are designed purely to cause injury. When the QB throws an interception for example and then gets blindsided while trying to figure out what happened or the kicker who is taken out while jogging down the field, those are wrong. I am against blatant, violent, aggression on players. But slapping a fine on someone simply because the other player naturally ducked and thus caused helmet to helmet contact is crazy.

If any NFL player does not want to take his chances getting hit then let them wear a skirt and the zebras can protect him all day long.

Jack Lambert, 30 years ago, ... if you want to avoid contact, put quarterbacks in skirts, was ahead of his time.

Ask the Expert: As some losing teams begin inevitably looking toward next year, who is one young player you expect to emerge in a big way next?

As some losing teams begin inevitably looking toward next year, who is one young player you expect to emerge in a big way over the second half of the season?

C.J. Spiller seems to be the best choice as Buffalo has nothing to lose (excuse the pun Bill fans). To-date he has just 39 carries and 18 receptions, it is now or never to see what the 9th pick of the 2010 draft can do. The only problem appears to be his pass blocking. But with Fred Jackson not looking like himself, I am betting on resurgence by Spiller in the second half no matter what the consequences.

ASK THE EXPERTS Fantasy Football Question-Which first-half star will stumble the rest of the way?

Which first-half star will stumble the rest of the way?

Thomas Jones will wear down and be upstaged by Jamaal Charles. Randy Moss is 43rd in PPR leagues; so not a “first half star”, but his stock has fallen with me as well.

Week 8 Results: FFGuidebook wins in 5 of 7 leagues

My week in review:

Seven major fantasy football leagues for me this year:

Three are Expert leagues. Two of those Expert leagues are associated with my rankings, projections and mock drafts in Fantasy Football Index magazine and Fantasy Football Pro Forecast magazine. The other is the now annual FFPC Pro's vs Joes Challenge. The Fantasy Index Expert Auction and FFPC Pro's vs Joes are also Draft Masters format so draft and forget.

Of the four remaining money leagues, one is the Fantasy Football Players Championship Main Event, two are FootballGuys Players Championship teams and the last is my local league.

Next week (week 9 is critical as I am 5-3 or better in several leagues, but with only 3 games left I need to be 7-4 or better to make playoffs.

Week 7 Results: Wins are in BOLD

Fantasy Index Expert Auction-Draft Masters: WIN, 8-3 versus all the other teams. 5th place overall but a long way from first.

FFPC Pros vs. Joes League #7 - Charles Jefferson's Z-28's: Win, went 8-3 ( we play every team each week), 7th overall and just treading water. Injury to Ryan Grant and Jake Delhommes struggles drag this no transaction team down.

Fantasy Football Pro Forecast Expert League-Win now 6-2

FFPC Main Event "Clark W. Griswold" Saturday Online League #21: Win now 5-3 (5th overall in Total Points)

FPC Satellitte Sunday 09.05.7: WIN, 5-3 for year (4th overall)

FPC Satellite Tuesday 09.07.10h: Loss, 4-4 3 straight losses, this weeks by less than 2 points, make them questionable for the playoffs (On a bright note moved to 7th overall Total Points)

Local League: Crushing 2 point Loss as he added Anthony Gonzalez at last minute, 5-3

Overall 5-2 (3-2 in H2H leagues). For the season, 35-21
