2018 Season - Week 16

Johnnie has greatly helped his cause in the only key position to be finalised as he scored 50 points and moved 21 points ahead of Marcus is the Hunt for the Papas Fritas. He ties Marcus & Mark for second most visits to the scoring Hall of Fame (14), five behind Chief. After serious petitioning from Chief the NFL have agreed to play the most important BUMS game (Indi @ Ten) as the final game of the season, Johnnie has Marlon Mack while Marcus has TY Hilton and Frank Reich from Indianapolis. We should also note that Alex could shock AP and steal the last promotion spot but he is currently 25 points behind him. A Week To Go In The AFC New England (10-5) have won the AFC East (again), while Houston (10-5), Kansas City (11-4) & LA Chargers (11-4) have all clinched a play-off spot. Baltimore (9-6) have moved a half-game ahead of Pittsburgh (8-6-1) in the AFC North, so a Raven win or a Steeler loss and Baltimore will take the division. The other AFC spot will go to the winner of the final regular season game Colts (9-6) @ Titans (9-6). A Week To Go In The NFC All four divisions have been won Dallas (East), Chicago (North), New Orleans (South) and LA Rams (West) and Seattle clinched a wildcard spot with their impressive victory over Kansas City. That leaves Minnesota (8-6-1) in the 6th spot while defending Superbowl Champions Philadelphia (8-7) can only qualify if they win and the Vikings lose. IR Replacements The first week 17 games are at 6pm on December 30th (GMT) and so the deadline for replacing any of your players who are placed on IR will be 4pm on Sunday.
