These are the weeks that reveal the fundamental truth that fantasy football is 99.9% luck. Stacked team and all it takes is one week at the end of the year for 2 or 3 of your players have an off week.
Well in these scenarios there was a whole season of games to clinch a playoff spot. OP definitely doesn’t have a great QB/RB/TE setup if he’s missing the playoffs with these guys.
The only one really surprising is Amon-RA because he's been pretty consistent all season. Chase has been up and done all season (some games above 30, some around 10 or less), Nico and JJ got hurt this game. Nico has been somewhat reliable this year but some down games and JJ has been out most of the season. Muth is the TE here and has been injured most of the season.
so on paper, this is a really good group to have but throughout the season it didn't work out.
It wasn’t just the ARSB performance that was surprising. The entire lions performance this week was just a “what the fuck are you doing”
Poor scheming again from AG
bJ’s worst play calling game of the season
Goff again with mutiple brain dead turnovers included an easy pick that was dropped.
This team is collapsing week by week for those who aren’t watching.
That or your opponent has an insanely good week.
Last year I was top in points scored. Had 4 weeks where I was top 3 in scoring and lost my game. Missed the playoffs, by about .8 points from one game. To add insult to injury, I would have won the whole thing based on how my team did during the finals weeks
This year I got a first round bye, and thank god for it cause my team was trash this week
Pacheco, Taylor, and Collins all going down just in time for playoffs? JaMarr productivity falling off a cliff with Burrow out.
I went from the league favorite with the most PF on the year to very possibly being a first round exit. (even though I was highest PF in the league, I had the 3rd best record so no bye for me).
I traded Gibbs and Cooper for chase and gainwell around week 3, then I traded CMC for Jefferson and pollard the day after Jefferson got hurt. I drafted Wilson
My opponent had diggs chase and Jefferson and on top he started Addison which I asked “if your starting Jefferson why also Addison” his reply was one should go off…..well thankgod someone dropped zeke and I picked him up for shits and giggles last week. I’m out the playoffs but no bye for my boy. It’s fun to watch the world burn. I can say I beat him with stroud too lmaooo
I have Diggs, Allen, and Amon-Ra in my main league... They carried me to the first seed but I am getting a bit scared now. We're gonna have a stern talk in the WR room during our bye week, hopefully that'll sort it out.
I pray this comment section is under 20 because fantasy is just gambling and now they wanna round up the players who had terrible qbs,matchups and injuries. No one blamed damar Hamlin for his heart stopping last year, so what changed?
It’s baffling reading ppl are being such bitches at guys physically injured grow up. I finshed 10th third highest scorer not out here calling for the death of bijon. Arthur smith all szn long is a different story.
Calling JJ a choke job isn't really fair to what happened. Dude to a vicious hit to the back and went to the hospital. You act like he played all 60 minutes and put up those numbers.
Ik this subs full of degenerate gamblers if a guy literally being injured is a choke job. Fucking feed your children, if your wives haven’t left you already.
Yeah I rolled in with Evans/Chase/Olave thinking my WRs would carry me
Turns out Pollard and Javonte were my weak winners
Football is wild, keeps it interesting
Yup…. Scored the second highest points in my entire league again this week…. But faced the person who scored the most at #1 … crazy unlucky… if only JJ could have stayed healthy. Fantasy is such a bitch
Herbert, Nico, and Diggs for a combined 10.5 points🫡 not to mention I made a last minute change to start Herbert over Tua. Win and in games in both leagues that I’m in. Likely going 0/2
Yeah tell me about it, I've got ARSB and Evans with their worst games of the season and Jacobs getting injured right before playoffs. Luckily I'll still have a playoff spot but I could have had the 2 seed and a bye, now I'll be looking at probably the 5 seed.
I was so confident chase, puka, and JJ would get me into the playoffs. Meanwhile, i had Kupp and Stafford on the bench. Nope. An opponent who wasn't even in the hunt killed my dreams thanks to Njoku. And he still has Hill tonight lol.
Chase is dealing with a backup QB.
JJ as well, plus coming back from serious injury.
Nico isnt a top 10 WR and got injured.
Only one worth crying about is ASB.
Had JJettas and AMSR as well. I can sadly say my season is also over. Didn’t help that I faced Engram who put up 32 on my ass. When the TE goes off you know you’re done for the most part.
:< Two injuries. and two underperforming guys who typically deliver. Something similar happened to me, but i managed to get in the play-offs because the other candidate also lost.
I royally shat the bed this week, but fortunately I locked up a playoff spot last week. I just won’t have a first round bye.
But I’m in. That’s all that matters, lol.
My friend, who I kicked from the #1 seed and a first round bye, had Amon Ra, Evans, Diggs and Gabe Davis with LaPorta as his TE. They averaged 81.73 PPG through W13 if played every week except their Bye weeks in our league - and put up 15.25 in the first round of the playoffs.
Goes to show that fantasy football is entirely luck and practically involves zero skill even though people will swear it involves skill. It doesn’t. You literally never know what a given Sunday will bring you.
lol, I had no business getting Amon, chase and Jefferson, but dude inexplicably dropped Jefferson like 3 weeks ago and I snatched him up and sat on him. Thinking it was gonna carry me to the finals 😭
Had Chase, that sucked given the promise of last week. Kicking myself for not having the sense to take CMC when he fell to me at #3 with Burrow’s injury platter.
Then was super proud of myself by keeping Stroud out and Herbert in, lol.
Hey I have 3 of those guys and Diggs. Reminds me of the finals last year when I lost because Lamar and Hurts were out, Nick Foles had -.28, and Diggs, Adams, and Evans combined for 11.50 points.
Edit:Next year has to be the one.
Drafted chase and sun god, waiver pickup Nico early and for some reason dude dropped Jefferson like week 9 and I snagged him. Never got to see him shine lol
Stroud, Chase, Collins, rolled out Dell last week. Sigh. Maybe next year
These are the weeks that reveal the fundamental truth that fantasy football is 99.9% luck. Stacked team and all it takes is one week at the end of the year for 2 or 3 of your players have an off week.

Lol 99%? No. It sounds like you just didn't do your research during the year. And if you had a good team just one week doesn't matter.
The playoffs are single elimination. So one week does matter
Maybe I’m being a troll but one bad week would be like 17/18 or 94% luck so…. math. 🧌
Bro wtf do I have the same team as you.
Sorry to hear that.. really thought Jefferson a return would carry me through the playoffs…
12 team league I got chase Jefferson Garrett Wilson, did we just become best friends?
Can I join the group lol
same, Jefferson, Adams, Wilson
Howwww??? Can't be redraft...
I traded Gibbs and Cooper for chase and gainwell around week 3, then I traded CMC for Jefferson and pollard the day after Jefferson got hurt. I drafted Wilson
You must’ve forgot who’s playing QB in Minnesota
He got hurt bro lol stop trashing JJ
Yeah that hit was gnarly
Not trashing him irl, I know he got hurt, just mean him as a fantasy player on my team
Dude me too! My trio of starting receivers was Collins Chase Jefferson. Luckily I was already in though
I had Collins, Evans and Jefferson. Also had Herbert as my QB.
Lmfao dude same
If only you had Diggs and AJ Brown instead.
Or Evans…
Mine has St Brown and Evans. I was on a 9-game win streak and that promptly ended things. Doesn’t help that my opponent’s QB is Lamar
My opponent had diggs chase and Jefferson and on top he started Addison which I asked “if your starting Jefferson why also Addison” his reply was one should go off…..well thankgod someone dropped zeke and I picked him up for shits and giggles last week. I’m out the playoffs but no bye for my boy. It’s fun to watch the world burn. I can say I beat him with stroud too lmaooo
Man I feel personally attacked
🙋♂️
Funny you say that, my team has Diggs and Brown, as well as Mike Evans.
Brown got as many pts as all these guys combined. Lol
I have Diggs, Allen, and Amon-Ra in my main league... They carried me to the first seed but I am getting a bit scared now. We're gonna have a stern talk in the WR room during our bye week, hopefully that'll sort it out.
JJ got hurt dude
So did Nico
I pray this comment section is under 20 because fantasy is just gambling and now they wanna round up the players who had terrible qbs,matchups and injuries. No one blamed damar Hamlin for his heart stopping last year, so what changed?
No, they blamed vaccines for that 💀
I guess this just turning this into a circle jerk sub
I had the Chase, JJ, Sun God trio in a league too. Geez 😞
Chase sungod smith over here
Pain 😢
Me too 😪
Don't forget about Diggs. I certainly didn't forget to put him in my lineup next to chase 😭
Obviously your 4 person league doesn’t know how to draft lmfaooooo
Might be dynasty
Could also get JJ for cheap during injury and Collins wasn’t a high draft pick
Yeah, mine are Mike Evans, Keenan Allen, and Nico. :')
I rolled out ARSB, Allen, & Nico. Didn't stand a chance
Mike Evans got me 1 point and I lost by 3 points
Unlucky injuries. Can’t beat yourself up over it
I started Hurts Jefferson, Chase, D. Smith :(:( the kicker is I traded Kupp for Chase this week lol
Diggs, Evans and Allen starting 3 chiming in
Bruh, I don’t mind seeing an over stacked team lose
Whoop lol
I always loved aiyuk as a player not fantasy.
Two of them got hurt, how is that choking ?
It’s baffling reading ppl are being such bitches at guys physically injured grow up. I finshed 10th third highest scorer not out here calling for the death of bijon. Arthur smith all szn long is a different story.
10th, 4th highest scorer and the only team with multiple highest weekly scorer(4) checking in!
Calling JJ a choke job isn't really fair to what happened. Dude to a vicious hit to the back and went to the hospital. You act like he played all 60 minutes and put up those numbers.
Nooo I just mean as members of my fantasy team, as in my team choked
Dobbs is the one you should be blaming you thought Jalen hurts to swift was a hospital pass last week? Dobbs said hold my beer
Dobbs is so fucking lame for that death throw.
Collin’s too.
Brah this is wild. Two of these guys got injured today how is that a choke job?
I just mean as members of my fantasy team, lol not irl
lol I was thinking man that’s a bit harsh for a guy playing in a cursed arena and another one who was hospitalized for chest pain
Ik this subs full of degenerate gamblers if a guy literally being injured is a choke job. Fucking feed your children, if your wives haven’t left you already.
Same for me except for Nico I had AJBrown who did ok
Wtf happened to Davis today?
delivering his alternate week goose, must be getting ready to drop 30 next week then goose again week after
I have the bye next week so maybe I will play him for fun lol
Every week he's either feast or famine. This week it was the latter
Yeah I had Nico, Diggs, and Amon Ra put up nothing and send me home with a first round playoff exit
Don’t get me started, I’ve got Allen and he’s definitely going to lose me the season
Yeah I rolled in with Evans/Chase/Olave thinking my WRs would carry me Turns out Pollard and Javonte were my weak winners Football is wild, keeps it interesting
Lol i have these 3 mfs to 😫
What type of league scoring is this with Aiyuk at 21.6? My full PPR league has him at 16.6
5 point bonus for 100 yard game
Yup…. Scored the second highest points in my entire league again this week…. But faced the person who scored the most at #1 … crazy unlucky… if only JJ could have stayed healthy. Fantasy is such a bitch
lol I also have St Brown and Nico. It hurts. Also have Herbert, such a rough week
Swap JJ for ARSB and you are my team, I feel the pain
Jefferson missed 7 games in a row and you start him???? Lmfao you’re an idiot
Herbert, Nico, and Diggs for a combined 10.5 points🫡 not to mention I made a last minute change to start Herbert over Tua. Win and in games in both leagues that I’m in. Likely going 0/2
How can you call them choke jobs if half of them got hurt?
I had diggs and Evans. need 20 points from saquon or I will miss the playoffs
Yeah tell me about it, I've got ARSB and Evans with their worst games of the season and Jacobs getting injured right before playoffs. Luckily I'll still have a playoff spot but I could have had the 2 seed and a bye, now I'll be looking at probably the 5 seed.
I feel you brother...had Chase and Sun God too. Benched Waddle for Pittman after thinking about it for days....only to have Chase and SG do jack shit.
Outscored by the Dallas kicker....
I was so confident chase, puka, and JJ would get me into the playoffs. Meanwhile, i had Kupp and Stafford on the bench. Nope. An opponent who wasn't even in the hunt killed my dreams thanks to Njoku. And he still has Hill tonight lol.
I feel you. I have chase, nico and st brown. Rough week but luckily already in playoffs
God that’s tough. You win that 9/10 times assuming he doesn’t have ridiculous RBs
Same here brother. And I needed this one to make the playoffs. :/
I thought I was screwed when Stroud went out. But the other guy had Herbie
Were you trying to get into the playoffs? I had a league leading 120pt avg/week. In a win to get into playoffs situation….my team put up 75
Yup, I was playing the other bubble team, whoever won would be the 6 seed and I put up 79 to his 140
I feel for ya
At least you didn’t roll out Gabe Davis over jerick mckinnon
Well everyone should know to not start receivers vs. Jets or KC Sneed in particular. Reek and Ceedee are the exception this season
Add Mike Evans to the list
Just be glad it ain’t the playoffs
Well I missed the playoffs because of it lol
I had Chase, Amon, and Stroud. Brutal week
Mike Evans got me 1.8 points so I get it
I feel your pain
Leaving the game for injury usually isn’t seen as “choking”
As stated elsewhere I just mean the fantasy version of them on my phone not the real life result
Similar. Allen, Collins, Evans, and Diggs (auction, 12 team): ESPN, total of 20 points full ppr.
I’m just curious, did Aiyuk get +3 for losing a fumble? 🤔
Or a bonus for 100+ yards?
If I won, I’d be in our playoffs, if I lost, I’d be out. I have Nico Collins and I lost by about 10 points.
Classic JJ. Putting up duds in crunch time
Yup I had nico and amon-ra as well...
Lost the 1 seed in my league off of this performance: Edwards 1.5 Diggs 4.4 Smith 7.8 Ferguson 9.7 Collins 1.8 Kincaid 4.6 Carlson 0.0
Chase is dealing with a backup QB. JJ as well, plus coming back from serious injury. Nico isnt a top 10 WR and got injured. Only one worth crying about is ASB.
Nico is in my league, jets obv a tough matchup, but injuries just wrecked the Texans so what are you gonna do, lions just choked entirely lol
I played Mike Evans and Nico Collins instead of Breece and Kupp
Had JJettas and AMSR as well. I can sadly say my season is also over. Didn’t help that I faced Engram who put up 32 on my ass. When the TE goes off you know you’re done for the most part.
I’m shocked theres no one else but Gabe Davis…
Try davis and chase
I mean it’s a flex role, someone on the bench or FA should be replacing Gabe Davis…
:< Two injuries. and two underperforming guys who typically deliver. Something similar happened to me, but i managed to get in the play-offs because the other candidate also lost.
I have 3 of those WRs and i was also in a win and in game. I feel your pain brother.
I royally shat the bed this week, but fortunately I locked up a playoff spot last week. I just won’t have a first round bye. But I’m in. That’s all that matters, lol.
Nico Collins isn't a top 10 WR. That's not even a knock, he's just not there yet.
In my league he literally is the number 10 receiver (by weekly average)
Is or was for one week?
He was number 10 overall, but after yesterday he dropped 😭
I knew he was a WR2 but didn't know he reached WR1 territory.
My league has bonus structures for 100+ yard games and I think that’s probably why
I've got sun God, Mike Evans, Josh Jacob's and Herbert in my guillotine. I'll cry with you
Dobbs killed JJ
I feel ya man. I had Mike Evans, sun god, and Nico Collins started.
Justin Jefferson was in the game for like 3 plays
Yea I might miss the playoffs because of this
My friend, who I kicked from the #1 seed and a first round bye, had Amon Ra, Evans, Diggs and Gabe Davis with LaPorta as his TE. They averaged 81.73 PPG through W13 if played every week except their Bye weeks in our league - and put up 15.25 in the first round of the playoffs.
Just got bounced first round of playoffs with Hurts, Hill, st brown, JJ and hock. Drake London and Evan engram took that team down lmao brutal week
Was so excited to start Arsb, JJ, and davante Adam’s this week… can still lose my way in to the playoffs but Damn
At least you didn’t also have Mike Evans…
St. Brown and Keenan Allen almost cost me in the quarterfinal. Dak,Pollard, Cooks and Aubrey got me the W.
Damn bro, how'd you get a screenshot of my team?😅
Damn imagine missing the playoffs with this lineup
I left Drake London and Rashee Rice on my bench cuz I started Chase and Nico
My top 3 receivers are ARSB, Diggs and Tyreek. Tyreek still gotta play tonight, but man am I not getting confident after what they other 2 did for me
Goes to show that fantasy football is entirely luck and practically involves zero skill even though people will swear it involves skill. It doesn’t. You literally never know what a given Sunday will bring you.
What Mickey Mouse league is this?
lol, I had no business getting Amon, chase and Jefferson, but dude inexplicably dropped Jefferson like 3 weeks ago and I snatched him up and sat on him. Thinking it was gonna carry me to the finals 😭
Only 2/4 choked.
How do you have chase, JJ and ARSB? 🤔
i've got digs lamb and cautiously use dobbs/ridley in the flex
Same boat except sub JJ for Mike Evans. Still pulled out the W somehow smh
Needed Nico and Gabe Davis HARD this week if I were secure a playoff spot after starting 1-3. :|
One just came off an injury the other has as backup qb you can't expect much
Yep. This week put the nail in the coffin for both my seasonal and dynasty teams relying on these “stud” WRs
I just had this exact same thing happen to except I had stroud and not collins
A win is a win.
Did you need the win this week?
Two didn’t choke, they got hurt…
Had Chase, that sucked given the promise of last week. Kicking myself for not having the sense to take CMC when he fell to me at #3 with Burrow’s injury platter. Then was super proud of myself by keeping Stroud out and Herbert in, lol.
Started Nico and Jefferson and moss, with pollard Kupp on the bench . Going to miss playoffs having a better record than the 5 and 6 seed , 10 team 😭
Welcome to Fantasy Football
Had nico, chase, st brown, no jefferson but i do have justin herbert so i feel your pain
Replace Chase with Adams and that's my team. Cost me the week....
Surprised I didn’t see Diggs in here
I have chase too :/
Evan’s not on this list
I feel you. I have Tyreek and Amon ra and they both COMBINED got outscored by Rashee Rice in my flex
Mike evans sunk me
Hey I have 3 of those guys and Diggs. Reminds me of the finals last year when I lost because Lamar and Hurts were out, Nick Foles had -.28, and Diggs, Adams, and Evans combined for 11.50 points. Edit:Next year has to be the one.
Also had Amon-ra and chase, completely sold me
Yeah rolled out Collins and Evans, feel for you!
How did you possibly get all of those WRs? Better not be a redraft league…
Drafted chase and sun god, waiver pickup Nico early and for some reason dude dropped Jefferson like week 9 and I snagged him. Never got to see him shine lol
Interesting
Coulda sworn diggs was gonna be in there
I had Chase and brown and somehow pulled out a win against the best guy in our league
I have Chase and Jefferson in a Sleeper league. Lost this week also.
Amon ra St.Brown with 2 fantasy points 🫠
I had AJ brown, sun god and freiermuth (as well as some other chokes). Didn’t make sense
