Looks like we all struggled to score this week on a whole. Got AI again up next to bang around.

Time to focus in and maximize.

Get AI again after this game and another chance to mash the punter but this week's game I stand down, obviously. I've got the greatest set up of all-time...I wonder why no rush. Maybe our boy tested my parameters of the past and X-Chopped them from working in the future. lol

120 catches for my boy. Focus/motivation for the week vs a human opponent. :)

The record for a season is 190 receptions by GM - Straw.

Alright, alright. AI up next - time to hit 'em up Pac style with 20 PBs before we close out the season with a deep playoff type match. :(

AI and a WR @ Punter. Lets see if I can get 200 Points. I'll know on the 1st Punt if its open season or if the punter will get off erratic quick short yardage punts all game.

Well, I partially failed in my mission as the opponent got too much in thus delaying the spin cycle of punt blocks. Idea was a game long conga line of them - non-stop wave vs. AI and a WR punter. King of Bling is clean (checked a few games) and not to get the wrong idea informing that I'm pulling the punt block package for pass block protection aka non-threat.

BTW, JDB totally toned it done. You don't see the violent zip line - mash the punter and kaboom into a lightning touchdown combo any more.

Battling with Thanos for the #1 overall seed but a bye is secured either way. We both have ultra difficult opponents!

I take pride in the 4 x 1000 Receivers. You never see that any more. A'ight time to try and push through a Week 16 difficult test.

My title defense is going to be a tough road this year. No bye, so I have to play a strong team from Ten or Den. If I survive that, then the likely buzzsaw of Smirt and Thanos, just for a chance to get to the Super Bowl.

Thanos, through determination, has put himself to a 9+ difficulty level as a GM.

90 Points Allowed for the season and no bye - stinks!!!! You've have had an amazing season.

In Legends' Beta League Warrior just got hit up with a no bye sub-100 points allowed scenario thanks to...

The 1-Team Bye System. Please someone get with JDB and tell him you don't have to sweat everything the NFL does. Imagine this league and season with the 1-Team Bye nonsense. Only Thanos or I emerge on the one side and everyone else is shut out. That's lunacy.

Good game, eli/Broncos!

You took it to me in all aspects.

Hope to avoid you in the playoffs.

Thanks for the shout out, Smirt!

What am I missing as far as byes go though?

I thought we both have first round byes, no?

It was a battle, Thanos. Nice to finally beat you once...

As for the other topic, I'm actually a fan of the one-team bye setup the NFL has now even though I didn't like it when they announced it. It didn't affect any of the 2 seeds (they both won their wild card games). A bye is a very valuable reward -- essentially a free playoff win -- and as a Browns fan, I can tell you a playoff win is a big deal. I think its fair to only give it to one team each year as a reward for 'winning the conference' in the regular season. A 2-seed getting a bye is like a trophy for second place, in my opinion.

But, that said, I don't really care if JDB adds it to MFN. It's just a game I play to pass the time...
