I got lucky with Ebron out scoring Tate and held on to win by 7.
I benched Dez, Diggs, and Crabtree in favor of Nuk and Montgomery. Only WR I had that performed was Evans. I pretty much owe my win to Tucker a damn kicker

Benched Chris Ivory, nelson agholar, Trayvon Austin and Jalen Richards to the tune of 50+ points.

I also didn't see that Eiffert was injured and started him over a TE that got 9 points. Still won by 3 thanks to Wilson and Johnson. And the last 3 minutes of the KC defense.

I benched Gates in favor of Jimmy Graham. Went gut over matchup. Didn't work this time but still won.

Opponent benched DeSean Jackson and played Robby Anderson.

Was about a 4 point swing or so in my favor.

That's just hindsight, not a stupid move.

I about to (I think) despite trading David Johnson for Fitz and Cobb. I'm now playing the same guy for championship and of course DJ goes off...

I stand by my decisions for my lineup, I had a solid draft, and an outstanding year with FA/WW adds

I won everything in spite of some really bad trades that I made that almost cost me my championship.

I will have to look deeply into each and every trade I made. Revisit my thought processes, reasons for attempting each and every trade and why they went south.

Lots of offseason reflection to do.

Benched Matt Bryant for Janikowski - 17 point difference after riding Bryant most of the season. Picked up Janikowski on friday.

Benched Jarvis and Devonta for Ware and Kenny Britt - Only ended up being a 5 point difference, but I was sweating it when Ware stopped getting touches and Britt practically didn't play.

I won by 11 and my opponent had an extra 20+ points on his bench.

Including the playoffs I went 15-1 this year so I would be pretty fricking salty if I lost the championship by less than 17 after benching my season-long kicker.

Why on earth would you ever bench Freeman? He's only been more reliable all year

Ware had the better matchup and the weather was terrible in KC for that game.

Ware could have matched (or surpassed) Freeman easily if didn't injure his ribs in the second half. He was averaging 5 yards a carry.

I left Thielen on my bench this week and started Jarvis Landry. Probably not a stupid move going into the week...but definitely in hindsight. Lucky for me I had Jordy Nelson and David Johnson.

The one "stupid" move that I made this year that I could have played differently that I kind of regret is using my #1 waiver priority that I had been saving on a bad decision. I used it on Cameron Meredith the week before Jay Ajayi blew up. I thought I needed more depth at wr, and I ended up having a lot of depth at wr anyway and being very thin at rb.

Ultimately it wouldn't have made any difference though. I still had solid starts in all slots and finished the season on a 10 game win streak.

I got to the championship game because GB benched Rodgers in the 4th in week 15. I won by one point!
