Playoff Round 1 Recap

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

The Playoff Semi-Finals are complete!

After losing to Chris the first two times in the regular season, Adam managed to squeeze out back-to-back victories over Chris, in the last regular season match, and in the playoff semi-final.

Chris was visited by The Ghost of Fantasy Football Trades Past, as his former asset Mike Evans gave Adam a healthy 27.6 points, helping Adam to win by a 24.15 margin.  Adam picked the (almost) perfect lineup, scoring 150.9 points out of a possible 156.9.  Chris scored 126.75 points, but he could have had 182.15 if Higgins, Conner and Nacua made it in to the lineup.

DJ pulled out what can only be described as a George Bailey level miracle. Going in to the Monday games, he was 41.45 points behind Josh, who still had Rashee Rice and the Eagles Defense to play. However the KC receiver and Eagles D underperformed, while Saquon Barkley and the Philly Kicker gave DJ a boost (17 points from a kicker?!!?!).   Then Zay Flowers stepped in and gifted DJ just what he wanted for Christmas,  a win over Josh by less than half a point…. Every time a bell rings, a DJ get’s his win.

Congrats to Adam and DJ for making the final, should be a great matchup. If Adam has the lead by Sunday 8:00 PM, expect TJ Hockenson to take the night off….cheating pays!
