I was 13-1, put up 142 in my playoff game, which is 15 points higher than the average of my opponent, yet he decided to put up 190. What sucks more is that the week before i put up 213, the week after, 192 and the week after that 176. I also set a record for highest average in our league that we've been playing in for 6 years. Our championship game was 109-101, while i had 192. I feel as if i was to believe i was unstoppable, only for the fantasy football gods to take a giant shite on my chest.

Just another reason to not have play-offs in fantasy football. In real life, NFL teams have a defense. In fantasy you can't control how many points your opponent scores. I like playing all 17 weeks and the best record wins. The whole idea about not playing week 17 is overrated. There actually aren't many teams who bench their starters. That's also part of the strategy and the reason you have bench players. It's also fair for everyone and tests owner's ability to pick up players the last week if need be.
