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

I'm our commissioner so will probably have to weigh in on our league at some point.

I was in the championship game as the 1 seed avainst the 4, he was up by 19 and had Chase left and I had Allen and Higgins. It would be a tight one I think but he was projected to win.

As far as money, I'm perfectly fine splitting the 1/2 pot downt he middle. That's fine, don't care. But the massive trophy we get, I don't think it's fair at all to have him win it. He was LITERALLY the lowest scoring player in our league. It just so happened that almost every week, his incredibly low score still won against his opponenet that week that would typically have THE lowest score of the week. Over the season he had over 500 points less scored than the first place team. I won the regular season by multiple games to earn the 1 seed, and I was 2-0 against him H2H over the season. I don't see any real rational reason why he should win the trophy because of this.

No offense, but that all seems irrelevant to the championship game. Thats the luck of fantasy sometimes. If he was projected to win, id award him the trophy

It's entirely relevant when the championship game doesn't even get played ot completion, is it not? It goes without saying that hte ESPN "projections" are pretty spotty. And this would be different if we each only had a kicker or something, but by stud QB and #1 WR had yet to play, so 19 points isn't much ot overcome at all.

In a perfect scenario the game gets made up and if I lose then I'll of course tip my hat because i lost fair and square. My whole point is, if this game doesn't get made u[p you've gotta decide what you're going to rely on to determine the winner and "oh well they were iwnning at the time" is pretty flimsy, IMO.

I was down 7 with Josh Allen left to play, and he had no one else.... I was 95% projected to win.

Maybe I'll propose using Allens point total from the next game if this one is scratched?

Sure, but there is no great answer

you're right, there isn't a good answer to this unique situation. Since there isn't a "good" answer, I'm trying to think rationally about the best way to determine the champ.

You dont wanna project, but then you want to project here.

I never projected that I would win. I simply said that it would be close based on who I've still got. If I was down 50 with only a kicker left this wouldn't be an issue.

t i would use projections to determine the winner of a trophy

that projection is conjecture though, it's guesswork. We're going to ignore 16 weeks of results and let it come down to whatever algorythm espn came up wiht?

instead of “his team was lucky and a lower scoring team throughout the season”

I'm simply saying that in a weird as frick stuation like this where the game is cancelend and not made up, it makes rational sense to look at a full body of work over the course of the season.

Yeah, we're having open discussions with our final 4 guys.

One guy is down around 90, but he has Josh Allen, Dawson Knox, and Tyler Bass. If you take those 3 guys highest point games from this season it equals 107 pts. So to try and play god and predict whether or not those guys would or would not have had that crazy night last night who knows...

This is just a mess all together. Hopefully theres some news that comes out today.

Obviously the game not being played last night will affect things altogether because weather + resting players etc may come into play with any type of rescheduled game.

But we are most of the way through this week of games

I think this is a dangerous game to play because then you have to subjectively decide what's an acceptable length of time through the week to be.

Dunno how much money that is, but id want more than the split if im the other guy

My league projects me @105-115 every week. Avg 142 on the season. Not a fan of projections lol. Especially when they’ve under projected burrow for like 8 weeks straight

This is a valid issue.

A commish in one of my leagues suggested giving players in this game their average for the season and just adding them up and see who wins.

That league is pretty casual but everyone voted in favor.

One possible option.

yeah in one league. I'm up 1 and he had Burrow going, I've already just said if the game is canceled I'm going to go ahead and concede the loss because common sense says I was going to lose. Now this was a 3rd place game but still.

so a lot of these situations are going to be different
