There is basically no way IWantToDieNasty didn't win:

109 Devon Achane
70 Kyren Williams
38 James Conner

From my quick math nobody is really even close to that.

19 achane
2 williamz
27 Conner

That would be
217 - 48 I think currently, 169 difference

I think I had

58 Warren, Jaylen PIT RB
102 Chandler, Ty MIN RB
123 Johnson, Roschon CHI RB (R)

Warren 26
Chandler 49
Roschon 52

283 - 127 = 156 difference

No idea of the others but there are likely a bunch of groups of players that don't look like they should score a lot but do.

Also given where a lot of players have their rushing yards at, a decent week 18 could move a lot.

Picking lower level RBs snd then hoping the RBs in front of them get hurt looks a lot more like blind luck than having any kind of special acumen. I am absolutely not a fan of benefiting from (and for some pulling for) injuries. Real bad juju being invited there.

Good luck to everyone participating.
I admittedly did this...but not everyone is playing it that way. Betting on someone like Jaylen Warren isn't depending on Najee to get injured for Warren to shine.

I should have played. I stayed out to appease the FF Gods and got Arthur Smithed anyhow. What a world. What a world.
