I'm right there with you. I just looked at week 1 to see if I even had a chance and that was a giant nope. It just cracks me up that Wil immediately knew that he played you the week Philly blew up.

To see in Fantrax how your team (or anybody's team) is doing for a given week:
  • Go to Team Roster
  • In the Stats drop list (near the top left) select "2021 Regular Season - Dates"
  • Select Thursday through Tuesday of the correct 2021 NFL week as From and To (i.e. Week 1 is From Sept 9 To Sept 14... see full list below)
  • You can view other teams in the same period using Team drop list on the right
  • The "Week" drop list does not give you the right dates for our league, and does not adjust your stats. It only works for showing who your opponent is for a "week" in our league, which can be handy.
2021 NFL Week Dates
Week 1: 9/9 - 9/14
Week 2: 9/16 - 9/21
Week 3: 9/23 - 9/28
Week 4: 9/30 - 10/5
Week 5: 10/7 - 10/12
Week 6: 10/14 - 10/19
Week 7: 10/21 - 10/26
Week 8: 10/28 - 11/2
Week 9: 11/4 - 11/9
Week 10: 11/11 - 11/16
Week 11: 11/18 - 11/23
Week 12: 11/25 - 11/30
Week 13: 12/2 - 12/7
Week 14: 12/9 - 12/14
Week 15: 12/16 - 12/21
Week 16: 12/23 - 12/28
Week 17: 12/30 - 1/4

(I'll also post this in a main league thread, which I'll start shortly, along with a trade thread.)
Do you think there will be many trades?

I actually think there will be a lot of trades in this. People have to win the weeks they are stacked. If anyone sees that they are facing a stacked team the same week they are stacked then you have to either make sure you win or pivot out of that week being stacked.

Agree... if people have the stamina.

It will be the openness of the trading that makes it interesting. If a trade would give somebody a victory over you, you have a chance to try to outbid.

Of course, who knows, maybe the recipient of the offer wouldn't have taken it anyway...

i think it'll take me a couple rounds to figure the whole trading thing out, then I'll be ready to wheel and deal around week 3/4

I agree with that. I don’t think trading will happen in the first few weeks. Not much at least. I think early on people will believe that they can afford to lose some weeks where they expected to win. But when they realize they are in a must win situation in week 5 they will do everything they can to win.

How about a must win situation in week 1? Asking fer a friend.
