I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Round 2 is ready to go, a pair of upsets on paper in the NFC (evenly matched teams but the lower seed did get the wins) and then the AFC holds true to the seeding with the top 4 now left to fight it out.  Games are due next Monday night at 10 pm eastern (if you need more time, please keep me updated). Get going on game contacts and good luck to all who are still alive. For the rest of you, look for some more info from me this weekend on ballot voting and also on voting for the league awards.

 

In the AFC San Francisco built an 11 point lead in the third quarter and Houston came back with a pair of Brady TD passes and a late FG to earn the win and move on to face New England.  Denver builds a big lead on Indianapolis with 3 TD passes from Wentz and then Rodgers scores twice in the final 3 minutes to make it close but run out of time on the comeback and the Broncos will face the top seeded Chargers in round 2.

 

In the NFC the underdog home team LA Rams who won the Central division in the final week give the Eagles all they can handle and lead by a TD in the third quarter with a pick six from Jimmy Smith but a Gould FG and then an INT return of their own from Jenkins sends Philly on to face New Orleans in the divisional round.  In yet another barn burner Carolina needs a pair of FGs in the last 4 minutes to squeak by the Mahomes led Jaguars and a safety from Nick Bosa and the Panthers will head to NY to face the Giants.

 

I can’t stress enough that you need to IMMEDIATELY send me your game export when the game is complete.  Send your write up later on, that’s fine, but I MUST have the game export as soon as the game ends or I’ll have to sim the game to keep things moving along if it is missing at the deadline.

***There is a new game update available on the website, dated 10/18/19 *** 

 

Don’t forget, if you lose a player for 2 or more games, you can ask for an injury replacement, but it must be done the same week as the injury, so don’t wait, get those requests in right away and take advantage, especially the teams who are already challenged for the amount of games they have to work with.  Also, be sure you give me enough names as the more injuries the more likely someone else already grabbed the guy you want. 

 

Reminder that you MUST send a boxscore and writeup to the league after each game.  The home team is responsible for this, but either team can do it, as long as it does get done.  Also, you MUST send me the game export immediately after the game is complete.  It takes about 30 seconds, so I shouldn’t have to chase you down for that file after a game, just get it in right away so I don’t have to guess whether a game has happened or not.

II. News from Around the League 

 

Guys, this section will get back to normal as soon as I have more time on my plate to get things done, for now I will focus on getting game files out and the website updated as best I can. Thanks for your patience.
