Need some fantasy advice for the championship, friends.

Boldin looks to be out this week. My backup WRs are Eric Decker (who has done absolutely nothing for me) and Robert Meachem (who is too inconsistent to actually start).

Demaryius Thomas is available, which wouldn't be bad I guess but it depends how much DEN decides to throw. Also Jabar Gaffney has a pretty good matchup. Can't believe I'm putting so much into this (never really into fantasy before).

I think I've narrowed it down, since a lot of other WR options may not play, but I'm not sure. If you had to choose between those two, who would it be?

Weather for Denver @ Buffalo is supposed to be pretty shit, but Denver is passing more. Could seriously go either way. Denver doesn't really have a #1 WR, more like 1 and 1a. May be best to just avoid Denver WRs totally, but if you're gonna go with one between DT and ED Demaryius is probably best

I went with Jabar Gaffney. Denver's inconsistency with passing/targets is too big a gamble for the final. Plus I like the matchup Gaffney has, and he's been solid.

Think St. Louis and Minnesota both jump Indy in the draft order if Indy wins this game.

Texans.

They could be out of the race for a bye and a lock on home field advantage if both the Patriots and Ravens/Steelers win. Denver would also be 1 game behind for the Texans #3 seed if they win against the Bills.

Minnesota now holds the #1 draft pick because of Indy's wins being stronger than Minny's.

would be muy interesante if St. Louis or Minnesota has the first pick with Bradford and Ponder both showing they're good, but maybe not great.

• Strength of schedule for the previous season is the first tie-breaker for teams with the same winning percentage. The team with the lowest strength of schedule percentage wins the tiebreaker and picks ahead of all other teams with the same record.

• Divisional and conference records are the next step in the tie-breaking procedure.

• As a last resort, a coin toss is used to determine the order of selection for teams with the same winning percentage.



So, the team who had an EASIER schedule gets the first pick?

Yhea makes sense, the team who went 2-14 against the shitty teams should pick before the team who went 2-14 against the harder teams.

I can't find current SoS ratings but some article on ESPN a few weeks ago predicted the Colts would have a lower percentage than the Rams so I'll go with that.

How do they calculate that number, I think I used to know the formula, maybe I didn't. I'm going to try and find out.

Man, why isn't ESPN giving Brees enough credit for his race to beat Marino single season pass record? The talk of this record having an asterick is ridiculous.

Brees is an excellent quarterback, but breaking the passing record in 2011 when quarterbacks can't even be touched means nothing.

id say marino doing it when he did, is a bit more impressive. considering there was no rules protecting the quarterback, DBs could rough up the WRs much more than they can now, and the receivers were not the same quality that they are now.

Brees has been slowly going after the record for the past few years so its not that surprising he might actually break it this season.

Probably could have broken it last year if it wasn't for the large amount of INTs (22) he threw which killed a bunch of quality Saints drives. I think only Eli Manning had more INTs last year.

The main reason why a lot of quarterbacks had huge passing numbers was due to the lack of training camps hurting defenses more this year than offenses. Newton himself had like 800+ yards in the first 2 games and then settled down as the season went on.

Marino's record is more impressive, no doubt. But to say that breaking the record means nothing is stupid.

Well that is what they were discussing the other day and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I always thought ESPN showed plenty of love towards Drew Brees. But these were coming from the same people that was on the TEBOW bandwagon cock until The Pats/Brady beat them. In Marino's era, it was impressive what he did, but why even considered an asterick to the record because of the difference in eras? If that is the case than, why have records to begin with?
