I'll give Billay a little credit here - he took a team from the #1 overall pick to a legit contender in very little time.
Granted, his team wasn't as bad as his record in year 1 - he was pretty openly tanking. But it wasn't a very good team and he's aggressively attacked problem areas to make it extremely formidable. |

Still curious if anyone wants to make a deal. I have insane depth at DB as well as a little WR depth (especially younger guys).
Looking to either upgrade the top 3 of my WR corps, acquire a LB or add some talent on the interior DL (thanks again for being busted ass POS, Javon Kinlaw, you really screwed me there dude). I'd ask for a TE, but nobody has one anyway. ****ing Aberdeen. GIVE ME TRAVIS KELCE BACK YOU DICK! |

I FINALLY SIGNED A WR!!! Even though it's AJ Green he's had a nice season with Arizona. The trend of signing WRs with 1-2 good more seasons lives on.

But yeah, my team was friggen savage. Gameplanning DOES matter though. I mean a LOT of my absurd production came from playing dead teams that had no gameplan set up and no roster machinations that would make them a bit more equipped to compete against me. It's clear that things do matter over large numbers. It surely does seem like the playoffs are random chance sometimes, though. As little sense as me losing in League 1 made, me winning league 2 made even less. That team's maybe 70% as good as this one and again - I was running Fitzpatrick out there in the playoffs (Dak was hurt) and he was throwing passes to Kendrick Bourne as my #1 receiver after Julio went down. Somehow it didn't matter. Leviska Shenault turns into Randy Moss and goes for 459 yards and 5 touchdowns in the post-season, Ryan Fitzpatrick becomes Joe Montana and a far far FAR inferior team to my squad in League 1 manages to steal a title. |

My 15-1 regular season was a fluke. Mostert was a beast and Judon had like 28 sacks with a great secondary. Your post season that year was a fluke. I recall Benson Meyowa playing like Lawrence Taylor. Don't get me wrong I'm not really complaining much. It would be pretty boring if the top regular season teams won the title every year but there must be some damn algorithm in the simulator. I'm going to crack that son of a bitch 1 day. |

Just to be clear, each game simulation requires thousands of random numbers. Of course some of those random numbers (did a fumble occur?) are way more important than others (who won the toss). So there can be upsets, just like in the NFL, and especially in the playoffs where both owners have their team in top shape and they are likely to be more closely matched.

Remind me what your unspent salary points do if free agency ends and you don't use it all? Does it all carry over to next year?
