Last week, I finished a (miserable) second-to-last in PlayoffBlitz’s playoff fantasy contest. I did a little better this week with Cutler at QB (41 points), Mendenhall (17) and Forte (14) at RB and a decent output from Santonio Holmes (9). Tony Gonzalez (0 points) killed me and the Chicago defense (2 points) was pretty brutal in a great matchup with the Seahawks.
I’m now in 17th out of 23 entries. Anthony Stalter (a.k.a. Against The Spread) moved ahead of me with Aaron Rodgers (43 points), Greg Jennings (14) and Todd Heap (11). He’s sitting in 15th with two weeks to play.
Looking ahead, I’m in a tough spot at QB, as I’ve already used both NFC QBs. So I have to pick between Mark Sanchez and Ben Roethlisberger and hope that I don’t pick the winning QB. Otherwise, I’ll be without a QB in the final week, and that’s not good. I’ve also already used the top WR for all four teams (Jennings, Holmes, Knox and Wallace), so I’ll need to choose my wideouts wisely. These are four very good defenses, so I’m not sure how many fantasy points will be scored going forward.
