I cannot believe I pulled off that Week 2 win! I wrote it off as a loss already after the Thursday game put me down 26-9 thanks to Cooks' three touchdown night; the projections had me firmly losing the matchup. Multiple disasters from other positions throughout Sunday seemed to seal the deal, but somehow the final score was neck and neck during the Sunday Night game where both of our last players were active.

It literally came down to the final drive of the game whether I would be able to hang on to the lead or Eugene would manage to jump back in front! The Eagles were driving for a game winning field goal, and Eugene had their kicker so if they got in range he wins the week because depending on the distance it ended up being I believe he would either take the lead by one, or worst case would tie me in which case he still wins because he absolutely destroyed me in bench points. But just as it looked like it was going to play out in his favor the drive was cut short by an interception and I sneak out a second win!

Oh my word, I am dead this week!! Lamar Jackson and JaMar Chase made sure of that. Goodness.

Seems like I've just managed to sneak into the playoffs, thanks to some final week heroics! My reward? A match with bookworm in the first round of playoffs!

Which you are currently projected to win comfortably. Your team has really got rolling the last two weeks; perfect timing for you if it continues.

Well, I put up a good fight, but I think KF is going to take it, after late TDs for Carter and Bowers! Congrats on a great season KF!

Wow that was close. I was sweating Jefferson getting the 3 yards he needed for a good 45 minutes.

Good game man. \:D/ Looking forward to another year to come
