re: So let’s discuss what we’re all thinking here…

Your opponent should concede regardless unless he's a total dick. Your line up beat his

Yea, once you’re up you would have won.

We have a $25 payout for our 3rd place game

I feel like splitting the 3rd place prize here would be warranted.

I mean are there really any heated debates going on here?

If the game isn't resumed I'd probably just payout the team that had Chase going

Our tie-breaker is bench points, so Team D really only needed 5 more points to win 3rd place.I feel like Team D would have won, but you never know. I feel like splitting the 3rd place prize here would be warranted.

Why do you assume scenario A wins but scenario B might not. They are both pretty much decided.

Projections aren’t a very fair way to determine a winner. My game is a toss up but I have Knox and he has burrow/chase. I’m up 20. It could go either way.

---

That’s why you don’t use projections to determine a winner. You use them to decide how to split the prize pool.

Also opponent has no players left

I think I would suggest agreeing to replacing MNF's week 17 stats with the individual players stats in week 18.

I don't agree with going with averages or just calling it there. Just my opinion on what I would do if the game isn't being made up. Which looks like they aren't.

This is what I am saying. I don't agree with projections or averages. It should be decided on the field.

Ask if y'all can agree to counting the eligible players week 18 stats.

I have no idea why people are making this way harder than it needs to be.

Count week 18 stats for any player in question and just put those in place of week 17.

Any player should get a chance for a full games worth of action.

Some people are also suggesting that since both teams will be in the playoffs then consider counting their first playoff game stats. I still think people should work it out and come to an agreement on what to do.

The NFL should have resolved this quicker. Oh well.

You gotta give all non injured players a full game of action.

Anyone that accepts victory because of any player not playing that MNF game is a huge bitch.

So if a player gets kicked out because of fighting midway through the 1st quarter, then a game shouldn't count? Maybe take a few deep breaths.

The 3rd place game in my league was a 90 point game with just Josh Allen left to play. It's quite possible things should be taken on a situational basis instead of blanket calling everyone a huge bitch. Mine was a little closer but I still had a 97% chance of winning up 48 and him having Higgins and Buffalo's kicker. Incredibly unlikely he would have come close. Even if we do count Week 18 stats, the most Higgins has scored all year is 23 with Bass at 24(which is nearly double his next closest). fwiw I'm not opposed to it because I would have much rather them completed this game.

From the Reddit payout calculator, it says I should give him a whole extra 7 dollars.

I don't consider this the same. This MNF game was literally cancelled. Therefore it is as if the game never happened.

---

I agree with you. But his statement was "all non-injured players"

But would you also do the same if a game gets cancelled because weather turned so bad that the field became too dangerous to play on?

Fwiw I'm not saying that I would or wouldn't. Frankly....this is a pretty solid mental exercise that I'm enjoying. Personally, I prefer to treat each week like as an equal. Part of managing your fantasy roster is taking matchups into consideration.

Hypothetical: You started a guy last week because he was playing a dogshit defense and those points would have won you the game.....now we're taking that players week 18 points against the toughest defense in the league who has playoff implications on the line when you had a better matchup you would have obviously played.

What it really boils down to is you really need to take it on a case-by-case scenario. The only problem I have is the blanket "if you accept victory, you're a bitch" statement above. How in the actual hell is someone who was up by 90 with the opponent only having one player left a bitch by accepting victory?
