The time is here, your championship weekend and huge congratulations on getting here. Though the work isn’t done yet and it’s time to finish off the competition and make your league championship yours! I went 0-4 in my leagues unfortunately due to my offensive players dropping the ball in most of the leagues. Plus, the Lamar Jackson factor which affected most of the semi-final matchups. So, if you defeated him, well done. Let’s go on to last week’s selections.

It’s championship week! Hopefully, my rankings helped you get to the pinnacle of Fantasy Football. Let’s help you taste glory and bring home the trophy.

To help fantasy football players with their roster construction, three of our writers have provided some insight on which players they would start, would sit, and consider a sleeper for this week. Be sure to follow all of them on twitter and ask any of The Scorecrow’s fantasy writers for fantasy advice.

Did you survive round one? I know I did, but it was sure it was stressful in some leagues. I went four for five in my IDP leagues where I didn’t have a bye and the one league I lost; my offensive players didn’t come to play fantasy-wise. The other guy though had a field day with his players going off. That’s alright because I’m looking forward to next season and the future is bright in that league, especially with five 2020 first-round picks to build on. That’s one league though, with the four wins I had, my IDP players stepped up big where they needed to and I sure hope you had some success. If you didn’t the scouting starts now to prepare for 2020, because your league mates are doing the same! Let’s dive into last week’s report.

One week of the fantasy playoffs down, two more to go. Hopefully, you found out Monday night that your team advanced to the second round or enjoyed your first-round bye but now the decision on who the start and who to sit is even more critical. Tonight’s contest between the New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens is the last Thursday night game in 2019 and the NFL couldn’t have picked a more one-sided matchup. The Ravens are trying to lock up the AFC North and a first-round bye while the Jets are already planning vacations and looking forward to the offseason.

It’s time for the fantasy semi-finals! Hopefully, you didn’t suffer a bad beat by Zach Ertz’s eruption on Monday Night Football. This week features a highly intriguing AFC South divisional bout between the Tennessee Titans and the Houston Texans. It will be interesting to see if Ryan Tannehill can continue his dominant stretch. Good luck this week!

Let me start off by saying, congratulations to everyone who made the fantasy playoffs! Hard work pays off to those who do the work. I made four out of my five IDP leagues’ playoffs and the one I didn’t make, well I started building for the future already.

Hopefully, everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving and found out Monday night that they made the playoffs. If you did be thankful for it and if you didn’t, it’s never too early to start preparing for next year, especially in dynasty leagues. With three weeks to go (unless you play in week 17 for some weird reason), every decision on who the start and who to sit is even more critical. To kick off the start of the fantasy playoffs we have a matchup between the Cowboys and Bears. Not only is this game critical to fantasy owners but to both franchises as they fight for the playoffs.
