There’s somebody in the central division who has scored more points than you, just hasn’t been as lucky with his opponents. It’s a cruel game.
Scoring points matters fuck-all - it’s about winning your matchups. The Central Division has a very poor record of doing this.

Would you be top of the league if you conceded the points I have each week? I know how the game works but you’ve had considerably more luck than me or @Bad_Winner. This isn’t sour grapes but your superior comment earlier wasn’t called for. The central division is similar to the other two.
Three teams in the Western Division have winning records and the fourth is as close to .500 as can be. Both games that I have lost have been to Divisional opponents. The Central Division has only one team with a winning record so, no, it’s not similar to the other two divisions.
Your claims do not add up.

No, you’re choosing to ignore my point. The amount of points your opponent scores in any given week is something you can do nothing about and is decided by a random fixture generator. What would your record be if your opponent scored what my opponent scored each week? I’ve conceded 285 points more than you. I am aware of how the game works.
Here, stop your whingeing,
You an only beat what’s put in front of you and @Elvis_Brandenberg_Kr Has done exactly that.
It’s the same as in the actual NFL.
in the NFL you can do something about the other teams score.

Are being intentionally stupid? If not I’m genuinely worried about you.
You can only beat the team that is in front of you every week and hope that you either top your Division or grab a wild card.
Three of the bottom four teams overall are from that The Central Turds Division.
I know how it works, some people seem to discount luck though. I set up my team every week to score as much points as possible and hope to fuck I don’t meet somebody who scores more, there is no defending in this game. You do not set up a team to play “what’s in front of you”?
You just don’t understand football Marge.
Ignore these two clowns pal, as they are either as thick as shit or pretending to be. Equating some kind of skill to the fact they are top their divisions betrays the fact they are clueless on the concept of randomness, like a lad who declares himself a genius because he won the lottery or because he tossed a coin five times and each time it came up heads. Fantasy football is at least 90% luck, assuming all players set their lineup each week. As you say you have no control over how your opponent will score, but just as important they have little control over it either. To demonstrate how random it is, I beat the living shit out of a player in one of my leagues early in the season and this week he hammered me, with effectively the same players.
An exception has to be made for players who are totally clueless, and we are lucky to have one of them in our division… but, to demonstrate again the primary impact of randomness, I almost lost to the stupid cunt this week and would have done if it wasn’t for one random play by Amari Cooper last night.

Can I still make the play offs?

No, but you would have had a good chance if you played with a full deck
It’s not luck it you draft correctly and waiver/trade smartly to make up for injuries or poorly performing players.
The only reason that teams are scoring a lot against you is because they’ve managed their teams better than you.

No but you can spend the last three weeks making sure that you seriously piss off the cunts, including me, that you are facing.

This is the kind of scutter that makes my point, you are simply coming up with a theory to hang your dunce’s hat on. Read a bit of Nassim Taleb. You have to assume those playing fantasy football know the basics, a monkey would have no bother learning them in half an hour (OK, maybe not a Tipperary monkey). Look, you’re all talk now because you are top your division, but there’s every chance you won’t make the playoffs, as ojs bills could well overtake you and the wild card looks like it will come from the eastern turds.
As an aside, we are both 7-4 and have effectively the same points scored against us.
I have no beef with you pal but that seems like a strange post and I have issues with it.
Elvis has the best record in the turds but if Elvis had played my opponent each week instead of his own he would have been 3-7 (can’t count the week he played me) the same as myself, if I played his opponent I would have been 7-3 and on course for the playoffs. The fixture generator is pure luck.
And if your Aunot had balls she’did be your uncle.
The fixtures were set before the draft. The fixtures were set before there were injured players on any roster.
He’s managed his roster better.
In every sport there’s an element of luck, just like in every sport there a showers of cunts whingeing about their lot. Are you from Galway by any chance?
It makes no sense whatsoever mate. Was there weeks where he rested players because he had a handy fixture? Read my post again and explain what he did to manage his roster better than me. We had different luck, any idiot could see that. You put out your strongest team every week and hope for the best, it’s not rocket science, if I had his fixtures I’d be headed for the playoffs and he’d be an also ran if the reverse wad true. This is a fact. But I get the if my aunt had balls thing, those are the brears.
He managed it better through his draft strategy, waiver pick ups, making up for losing injured players and making sure that he’d be in the best position to score more than the franchise he faced in the match up.
