This is going to be tough. We have a person in my league that is the luckiest person I’ve ever seen in fantasy. Every year they have the lowest PA and win. Commish won’t change the divisions so they cake walk the last two years. Now they are down 21 and the person playing against them still has Chase. I’m not joking when I say this person is getting an act of god to stay in this shite.

Needless to say they have been active on the league messages to have this game ruled out if it isn’t played by Thursday

If they are done completely and behind they lose no matter the outcome of the game.

And for them to actively fight otherwise shows me they are a pos

Our league had one with Allen and one with Higgins.

Score is currently 155.82-161.23. The team losing rn has Allen. Not sure what we’re gonna do.

Still another week but I totally agree with you on them being a POS.

I don’t think anything can be until the NFL decides…

But in some common sense needs to be in play. In my situation, I needed 2 more points from Diggs with 3.5 quarters to go. I’m not down 25 and saying well you never know, he could have had a big night.

So they are lost even before last night started.

No, I believe the championship game is two weeks in my league.

If the person wants to use outliers like that then my stance would be if the game is resumed at any point we’ll just wait until then to decide the outcome of our game

IMO a precedent was set during COVID when players were forced inactive due to a positive test. I'm sure there was a player left in a starting fantasy line up for a MNF game that was forced inactive going into the Monday game, and that fantasy player just had to accept a wash.

I obviously haven't checked if that actually occurred, but if that happened I can see a fairly valid argument for it to play out the same as if this game is canceled.

I have no idea what to do as commish. Champ gene features my son playing against Allen. My son had a 60% chance going in.

I’m in 3rd place game with 4 bengals, he had Knox anx bills kicker.

I allowed for teams to name alternates if they sent them in before kick off of the alternate’s game.

But due to the nature of this you can’t really go off that “ah yes I would have started whatever player is on my bench that gets me the win”

Boss cool with splitting money but says “I want my name on the trophy” lol. Cause he was leading at the time. If it’s that important to your ego, have at it.

I'm a 99% to win up 27 with Diggs vs Singetary and this guy will legit claim Devin could get 50 and protest any claim of my victory

I get it. But how many people were on the championship game with Jefferson and he put up a dud. No way to tell what would happen.

I know some leagues that let managers designate a player before the week started as a potential replacement in the case of a Covid sit out on Sunday/Monday night.

Very interesting especially given the # of 100% starters involved in the game.

Allen
Burrow
Chase
Higgins
Diggs
Mixon
Buffalo Def

It’s almost a guarantee at least one of the teams playing had at least one probably multiple.

Wouldn’t necessarily need 50 from him.
