2015 Razzball Commenter League Grand Champion

January 6, 2016 | 2015 Fantasy Football, Our Leagues | 12 Comments

by: J-FOH

I was reflecting back on my 2015 Fantasy Football season and I started to sob a bit. I know it sounds ridiculous, but before you pass judgment, they were tears of joy because Fantasy Baseball is right around the corner. Now, you might be wondering why I bring this up and I’m not even sure why. Oh, yeah, it’s because this year’s 2015 Razzball Commenter Grand Champion and the winner of a $150 Best Buy gift card and a Razzball T-Shirt is actually a Razzballer I know from the baseball side of the site…

Week 17, the 19th Hole, Scam Newton and Bubba Smith

January 2, 2016 | 2015 Buy/Sell, 2015 Fantasy Football | 8 Comments

by: malamoney

I don’t play golf, but it seems to me that week 17 of the NFL season is the fantasy football equivalent of the 19th hole in golf. Sit back, enjoy your frosty beverage of choice, heck have three, and reflect on how you just played. If you are in a league that plays into week 17, find a new league. Seriously, find a new league. Any league that allows the champion to be decided in week 17 is one worth not playing.

While we’re on the topic, two week championship matchups should be a staple in all leagues. A season full of ups and downs shouldn’t be decided in a single week when your mediocre opponent happened to have a lucky week. I’ve instituted this rule in all of my fantasy baseball leagues and it’s due time for football as well. Baseball is a much longer season, but even with football, it makes sense.

It feels like every other week of the season I was writing about Kirk Cousins. On the season he is 10 yards shy of 4000 and has 26 passing touchdowns. He even has 5 rushing touchdowns, second most amongst quarterbacks after Cam Newton. Cousins has been a top 10 QB this season. How did he reward owners that stuck with him in the finals? How’s about 365 yards and 4 touchdowns. Will the real Captain Kirk please stand up. RG3 who?

2015 Rankings in Review

December 31, 2015 | 2015 Fantasy Football, 2015 Weekly Rankings | 38 Comments

by: Jay

As you might have noticed, we’ve already gone into offseason mode here at Razzball Football, but don’t worry to all of you who are in unique formats, we’ll continue to do weekly rankings right up to the Super Bowl (and you’ll find our Week 17 Rankings after the jump). But for all intents and purposes, the majority of all leagues have come to an end, including our wonderful Razzball Commenter Leagues, of which we’ll be announcing the grand prize winner later this week. But basically, the rankings have been concluded this year and I’m happy to report, with FantasyPros’ help, our final results (the week-by-week results are available after the jump)…

Year	Accuracy	Rank	High	Low	Percentile
2015	57.5%	22 out of 123	59.9%	51.6%	Top 20%
2014	58.1%	31 out of 125	60.7%	50.6%	Top 25%

As you can see, not only did we improve from last season, we also finished just outside the coveted “Top-20” of all “experts”. (And seeing as how nearly all of those top-20 sites only offer rankings through paid subscriptions, I’m proud we were able to have such a strong showing while also sharing that with our readers without a paywall.)

Now, I don’t normally toot my own horn, mainly because my rib cage is still largely intact, but I want to note that we finished higher than essentially all of the industry leaders; Dalton Del Don, Liz Loza, Andy Behrens, Brad Evans, and Brandon Funston of Yahoo! Sports, John Halpin and Adam Meyer of Fox Sports, Chet Gresham of WalterFootball, Jamey Eisenberg of CBS Sports, Scott Engel of RotoExperts, and Tristen Cockcroft and Eric Karabell of ESPN Sports. (Matthew Berry has removed himself from this group. No clue as to why…) What does this actually mean for you? Well, I’m not totally sure, but you should probably stay away from Yahoo for a while. That’s my take on the situation.

Honestly though, I’d like to think that the community found some sort of fantasy success by reading through my drunken ramblings and d*ck jokes. And if you didn’t, well, based on our accuracy results, you probably did better than most, right? Haha, just kidding. All of our teams sucked complete and utter ass this year because 90% of the league’s players had season-ending injuries by Week 3. So maybe the secret is: ranking is totally easier when only 10% of the player pool is alive? Now there’s something to think about.

You’re welcome, all of you Statistic majors needing a thesis topic…

IDP Rankings, Week 17: One Last Ride

December 31, 2015 | 2015 Fantasy Football, 2015 IDP Rankings, 2015 IDP Report | 1 Comment

by: Kevin Kumpf

As I mentioned in last week’s rankings, this will be my last IDP post on Razzball for the foreseeable future. And fittingly, the only people it really applies to are the die hard IDP fans that are reading a weekly rankings article during Week 17. If your league is still holding it’s championship this week, I strongly urge you to change that next year. However, this year you’re in luck because no team looks to be resting its starters. So unless you lost guys like Eric Weddle or Barry Church last week, you’re most likely good to go with your typical starters again in Week 17.

So without further ado, here are my final rankings of 2015. Happy New Year everyone, and good luck with your championship games!

Sunday Games Live Thread, Week 16: In Conclusion

December 27, 2015 | 2015 Fantasy Football, 2015 GameDay Notes | 56 Comments

by: Jay

That’s right folks, while we still have actual football for the next month, our fantasy season has come to a close. I’d like to thank all of our contributors who did an awesome job this season, and of course, thank you the readers for joining us on this trip of discovery. While it feels like we only “discovered” injuries and that the Browns still suck, I’d like to think it was a little Toy Story 3-esque, ya know, holding hands as we fall down a furnace. In this case the furnace is Dez Bryant’s season, but hey, it’s football. Crazy things happen. I mean, the Falcons used to be 6-0. LOL. Anyhow, thanks for a great season everyone. We’ll be sure to continue our rankings throughout the NFL playoffs for your consumption. (Don’t actually eat your screen of choice while reading that.) And we’ll have choice content during the offseason to keep you grounded while Fantasy Baseball combs over the land. Interesting metaphor usage, but whatevs.

Thanks everyone!

Rankings have been updated for today’s games and can be found below…

The Max Factor: Better Eat Your Wheaton

December 26, 2015 | 2015 Fantasy Football, 2015 Roster Strategy | 12 Comments

by: Max

I apologize for my absence the last two weeks. I had some major final exams and they kicked me in the ass. I am a better human after finishing it however; I have not seen natural light from the sun in 20 days. The doctor told me I had to wear sunglasses at all times until yesterday; the worst experience to be forced to look like a hipster. Story time! This guy from Greece, let’s call him Pat, bought a five-step ladder in Canada and had it sent to him in Greece. Because he is smart, he fell of the small ladder and subsequently sued the manufacturer and the store that sold it to him because he felt it had two defects: defective material and no warning labels. Experts deemed the ladder perfectly made and the judge told Pat that because an adult of average intelligence would know how to handle himself on said ladder there is no need for warning signs. In addition to this there are glue stains where the warning signs were, so also ripped them off. This man was then given criminal time and had to pay punitive damages. Fraud = bad. Don’t be this guy.

Razzball FanDuel Contest, Week 16: Happiness and Cheer

December 26, 2015 | 2015 Draft Strategy, 2015 Fantasy Football |

by: M@

Week 16 is here!
Happiness and cheer!
Fun for all that champs they call
Their favorite time of year!

Let it just sink in. The nostalgia of that animated tune from 1965. You’ve heard it before right? Here’s a refresher:

So, I changed the lyrics a bit. What you’re looking for is a big ol’ ‘You’re Welcome,’ right? For real, though, you can’t watch that and not feel a certain je ne sais quoi for this time of year! It’s the best, hands down.

As you read this Christmas has come and gone, and in its wake we’re left with ~~New Years~~ Week 16 of the NFL Season, or as fantasy footballers call it: Championship Week! And if that doesn’t bring ‘happiness and cheer’ to each of you I don’t know what will. Huh? What’s that? Oh, you didn’t make your league’s championship? Well, poopsickles! Good news is this entire article is about to focus on how you can still play all of your football fantasies out in Week 16… FanDuel!

Each week we offer a 22-man Razzball-only FanDuel Contest that pays out the top-5 finishers! Think you’re good enough to operate beyond just luck and work your way to the top of the standings? Then put your money where your fingertips are and enter the $5 Contest for Week 16 (Sun-Mon Contest)!

FanDuel, Week 16: The Big Short

December 26, 2015 | 2015 Daily Fantasy, 2015 Fantasy Football | 1 Comment

by: Zach

I’ve spent a total of 45-60 minutes trying to come up with a good introduction for this article, trying to talk about everything from Jewish activities on Christmas, to learning about past mistakes in DFS and applying that to the next week, and nothing has stuck. So I’ll mention one thing before I begin the actual article. Apparently Derek Carr is playing against Amari Cooper in a Season-Long Championship Game, and Cooper finished with 2 receptions for 10 yards, with the longest reception being 7 yards.

I’ve about had it with Fantasy Football.

IDP Rankings, Week 16: This Is The End

December 24, 2015 | 2015 Fantasy Football, 2015 IDP Rankings, 2015 IDP Report | 15 Comments

by: Kevin Kumpf

If you’re reading this, then you’re in your league’s championship game. Either that or you play in one of those weird leagues that end in Week 17, in which case I’ll still have rankings for you next week, but my thoughts here essentially still apply: Don’t get cute. You’re still playing because you have a dominant roster that has likely caught a few breaks here and there en route to a successful season. Remember who got you here, and don’t overthink things. That’s not to say that every lineup decision is going to be easy, but don’t let a good matchup for a guy like Justin Durant blur the fact that Bobby Wagner is still the correct play.

Here are a few things to watch for in Championship Week:
