Sims are up.

I will try to see if the 300 carry rule is in effect, and let people know tomorrow.

Wow, Leander continues to roll! 7-1 in the last 8, one game out of first. You put yourself in a 0-6 hole to start the season and it looks pretty bleak. Amazing what a couple of defensive adjustments can make.

rtmike · 05-10-2020, 04:10 PM

Well Vancouver is guaranteed .500 or better at this point.

It's crazy. I back way off on blitzing and still double digit sacks, lol. Not complaining, lol.
I think I'll draft like the Chiefs. My D has been in top 5 all year, think I'll keep building on it, lol.

Well, that's impressive.

**cdcox** · 05-12-2020, 10:08 PM

Sims for week 15 are up. Closing in on the playoffs.

On a side note, among non-free-agents I had 0 RB and 3 WR this week.

**Rain Man** · 05-12-2020, 11:20 PM

Man, I could hear the hits in the Sparks-Newport Beach game. The two teams combined for a total of 162 net passing yards. The tubs are going to be full in the training room this week.

I'm proud to say that defense matters in Sandbox.

A Newport-New Orleans playoff showdown is looming in the Solar conference playoffs. At this point, I give you the edge.

Man 2019 will be a rough year for Leander - with AB and Brees sitting out some time...

I have Wentz for next season and I only signed AB to a one year contract. Drafting will be important thought, for sure!

Great cover! Nice job addressing your holes!

DJ's left nut · 05-13-2020, 09:06 AM

Woof - forgot to get my lineup set prior to gametime so the much needed return of the league's top ballhawk...wasn't.

Sure might have helped have Denzel Ward back, but Julian Stanford makes a huge pick from the LB corps inside 2 minutes w/ Tulsa in Benton territory to allow Prescott to lead a TD drive as the half expired.

Some tight moments there into the 4th as it was a 3 point game but Prescott was good for some key plays the whole game and Benton pulls back into a tie for the division lead w/ a 7 point win over Tulsa.

After 2 straight losses (including a Springfield loss that just looks worse and worse), it was a much needed recovery from Benton that clinched a playoff berth. The loss to Manhattan took the bye off the table so ultimately Benton is playing for seeding next week while Kansas City is fighting for its playoff lives. Not gonna lie - I'm pretty much pulling for a 4-way at 9-7 among that lot and some really confusing tiebreaker scenarios.

If resting my players was a thing, I'd probably do so. I'm not sure I care much about the division title and I'm not confident enough in seeding to know what I need to do to avoid playing the bizarrely hot Leander Lasercats.

**Old Dog** · 05-13-2020, 10:25 AM

My offense keeps humming right along, but I need to figure out a bit more on defense before the playoffs start....thought I had something figured out, but I almost got bit in this one. Needed overtime to beat Des Moines.

**PHOG** · 05-13-2020, 12:59 PM

Yes, that INT right before halftime and the ensuing TD resulted in a 14 point swing and the difference in the game. The mighty Trojans are currently being decimated by injuries, and might not be able to play they're final game, due to lack of viable players.

**PHOG** · 05-13-2020, 01:02 PM

Shoot, even my kicker had a hangnail and was out. I hate kickers.
