phillygrrl08 139 Posted December 23, 2013 So I am down something like 15 points going into last night's game (I stopped watching the fantasy cast after Lacy got a TD after the blocked field goal. My opponent had Lacy.) I had McCoy and Dawson still left to play, my opponent had Forte and Alshon to play. I just checked the totals, and I squeaked by with McCoy's 28 for a 97.1 to 95.6 lead with Dawson left to play for me. My opponent is done. Question: should I pull Dawson on the off chance he gets me negative points and hands me a loss, or do I play Dawson out of fear of a stat correction Tuesday morning that gives my opponent a come from behind win?

R8RMick 242 Posted December 23, 2013 Better be careful, your commish might think it violates unwritten rules and fix your line up so he plays anyway. I'd probably just go ahead and cut him to be safe. Seriously, you pays your money you takes your choice. It's just business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimHauck 1,801 Posted December 23, 2013 I'd say the chances of a kicker getting -2 are less than there being a stat correction. But if it was only a 1 pt lead I'd consider it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5Year1 23 Posted December 23, 2013 If your league gives minus points for missed FGs and PATs, pull him. If not, keep him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted December 23, 2013 Play him. Stat corrections like your defense getting a sack negated or his being credited for one would blow mule if you sit him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted December 23, 2013 I would not sit with that tiny league due to stat corrections. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

montana 89 Posted December 23, 2013 This wouldn't work in my leagues. You have to submit a legal (filled) line up. Well I guess it'd be legal if you started a backup kicker but you can't leave any position blank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krusi123 9 Posted December 23, 2013 Dawson has been gold - last 6 games he has scored double digits in my fantasy league - play him! - A stat correction could screw you over easily - you could drop down some points, and his total could go up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phillygrrl08 139 Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks, all, for your input. We do lose points for missed kicks, so it makes me nervous, but I am going to play him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phillygrrl08 139 Posted December 28, 2013 Mean and uncalled for. Not sure if I get the mean comments because of the "philly" or the "grrl" but if I am gonna hang out here I know I will need thick skin. I played Dawson, he got me 11 points, so I am sorry to report that I won. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
