GW13 Fantasy Football

There was this site Greg shared a long time ago called Bad Luck or Just Suck (https://badluckorjustsuck.herokuapp.com). We all know intuitively whether we belong where we are or not, but now that we've had 3 full weeks, I'll include some extra validation I'm sure a few of you will appreciate. Ja'Marr SteepleChase: SteepleChase has been pretty mediocre to start the season, not yet cracking 120 points. A couple of close wins against two sub 100 point weeks makes for the third least challenging schedule so far. Like the other two teams with even easier schedules, SteepleChase has relied heavily on luck so far. Expected Wins: 1.56 Expected Rank: 6 Percent Chance of Ranking: 5% Verdict: Dumb Luck Lamarathon Runners: Has anybody checked in recently on Greg's firstborn child? After three years of championship dominance, this team seems well on its way to lucking into a fourth. Sitting just outside of first place by less than 1 point, Lamrathon managed to beat out probably ...

It's hard to judge teams based on just one performance (not to say I didn't), but after a second full week, trends start emerging, and in some cases, panic might start setting in. Last week I rated teams on a grade scale, this week I'll include a bit of a panic meter. Wushu Waddle: The Wushu Waddle name change was too late to curry favor from the fantasy football gods. Amon-Ra St. Brown got back to his typical PPR ways, but also might have picked up an injury. Richardson might be pretty volatile going forward too. It looks like that Raiders loyalty led Wushu astray with Zamir White. At least Dicker the Kicker is doing fine. Wushu Waddle might have a hard time digging out of their 0-2 hole. Panic Level: I'm allowing you to panic some Ja'Marr SteepleChase: Ja'Marr Chase has been kept under 10 points for 2 weeks, and seemed to get a little angry at the refs at one point. The panic isn't quite there for him yet, but it's starting to creep in. The tight end ...

It's been two weeks since the draft, and we've finally had our first week of football in a year. It's way too early to make judgements, but we're going to anyway. Yahoo gives us each a letter grade for our draft, hands out an A+ to everyone with a backup kicker for the bye week, then has AI write some nonesense to back the grade up. I can answer a captcha, and have a week of results to work with, so maybe my grades will make more sense. The Draft: Yusuf DiKelce: A Waiting on quarterback seemed to work out for Yusuf, so far at least. I had Tua last year, and he got off to a hot start then too, so we'll see if it lasts. At least you always have Taysom Hill to fall back to in your QB slot as well. Mixon and Godwin look like great values if they keep it up, and each has a good chance to. We'll see if Kelce is finally just too old now. Probably not going to get 150+ points every week, but I think you're going to have a hard time missing playoffs. Darnold QB1: C C...
