I don’t think you have anything to worry about. I need more than one miracle to stay alive.

Really hoping that Chiefs-Lions game is a low-scoring affair.

That’s not true. You’re actually not even the lowest projected player right now, it’s Off with their cheeseheads who’s a projected point behind you. Justin and I are only about 7 points ahead of you. You’re in danger but it’s a pretty close 4 way race at the bottom at the moment.

Yeah, I need about 60 points from 4 players.

I need a bunch of points, preferably from 3 players in particular. I just saw the crawl regarding the Lions tonight…they have a whole bunch of defensive players either not playing or questionable tonight.

The bottom 3 players by projection are Railer, myself, and Cheeseheads with projected scores of 86.06, 86.86, and 86.99

That TD pass to Chase might wrap it up for you, @SenorBeef.

The Jacobs/Golden duo pushed me over 100 on the last real drive and have put me in a pretty good position to wait out the rest of the games.

</div>

The TD made us basically tied. I’m projected for 86.88, you’re 87.01, Justin is 92.97

I have a 33.1 lead and whatever Josh Allen scores against your Mahomes, Amon-Ra, Xavier worthy, and Dalton Kincaid.

Justin still has Drake London, James Cook, and JCM left to play.

Still anyone’s game to lose.

6 people are still up for elimination. I’m the leading candidate now but it’s close enough with enough players still in play that it could shift quickly.

The result of having two Monday night games. Makes for a lot of drama.

I just now say that Josh Allen threw his TD to your Dawson Kincaid, that definitely helped you keep an edge on me.

Drake London just scored which significantly boost’s Justin.

Nope, it was to Dawson Knox. Dalton Kincaid was questionable for tonight’s game, so I picked up Knox yesterday morning. And Kincaid was ruled out an hour before kickoff.

And suddenly 65 Toss Power Trap is marked safe from the chopping block, thanks to an 81 yard TD run by Robinson.

There are now five of us still eligible for elimination this week.

Beef was in it right until the end, but it looks like the gallows are waiting.

Any last words?

All I can say is: WHEW

My worst nightmare was Josh Allen scrambling the last 16 yards for a TD. That would have been enough points for Beef to overtake me.

The Josh Allen sweepstakes is certainly going to be wild.
