Not defending the rationale, but their thought process is that since the NFL is not counting the stats, and the leagues use official NFL stats, that must mean the stats are zero. Again, not defending it or saying it’s the fairest outcome, but that’s the “logic”

Shower. I did the same in another league. Left Diggs and Burrow in on their bye week - lost by 4
JTP2 at Jan 6, 2023 3:45 PM -
Seems the easy option is to have the commissioner edit the lineup for Shower to start DJohnson in Tee Higgins place. Would need to be done today so it is finalized before season ends today. Shower was already up when the game was postponed, but when the stats get zeroed out he loses. I don't know why Niv and other sites wouldn't simply treat it like the game ended there and instead zero totals out.
Magic City Wings at Jan 6, 2023 3:28 PM -
FFPC did the same as Ottoneu - treated the Bills’ and Bengals’ players as if they were on a bye week, zeroed out the stats, and finalized the week’s and season’s results/made the payouts. Tough spot for the league organizers like Niv. No matter what choice he makes, it changes outcomes in many leagues
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Jan 6, 2023 3:06 PM -
I guess I shouldn’t have started to guys on a bye week.
B&S Enterprises at Jan 6, 2023 1:45 PM -
Ok. Any stats from that game will be zero. If the game is canceled or postponed to be restarted from scratch at a later date, the stats will be included or discarded accordingly and the fantasy football season will be finalized.
JTP2 at Jan 5, 2023 10:04 PM -
Well the game will not be made up. Let's see what Niv says.
JTP2 at Jan 5, 2023 10:02 PM -
Hopefully the fact that he is awake and looks likely to recover well gets as much attention as the horrifying part received. Great news that he can write and mentally operate.
B&S Enterprises at Jan 5, 2023 3:03 PM -
Cool.
The Hopsmackers at Jan 5, 2023 11:39 AM -
I'm in wait and see approach and I am sure nobody is getting paid until the NFL makes a decision. Congrats Dr Shower.
JTP2 at Jan 5, 2023 1:18 AM -
Really seems like the “Mark Andrews” vs “Travis Kelce” battle was the deciding factor. Who would have thought it’d that close- and a great game!
The Hopsmackers at Jan 5, 2023 12:39 AM -
Sorry. Just reading this now. My yahoo league has been a mess and I appreciate everyone’s much more reasonable perspective. I’m cool with a vote. I’d also agree that it seems like Shower is the winner.
The Hopsmackers at Jan 5, 2023 12:36 AM -
Just declare Shower the winner and move on. No need to discuss this.
Finkle Is Einhorn at Jan 4, 2023 8:18 AM -
If there is any kind of vote, I would agree with just subbing out one of his bench players for Higgins so it becomes a W for Shower. He already had the game wrapped up in 1Q and if they turn around and cancel the game because it won't have an impact on playoffs, I wouldn't want to see issues from players' stats zeroing out and then it becomes a fiasco with prize money.
Magic City Wings at Jan 4, 2023 8:15 AM -
I agree, Dr Shower. It’s all insignificant in the grand scheme of things, so I don’t care what the outcome is. I just hope the young man recovers and can live a reasonably normal life.
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Jan 3, 2023 5:27 PM -
It’s not like $400 is life altering money so that’s not at all my concern. Logically, either of our commissioners could just do a lineup edit to put Dionte Johnson in for me & bench Higgins and there’s really no controversy. It’s all pretty ridiculous to discuss and completely insignificant & I understand there’s no good outcomes and that this really doesn’t matter.
B&S Enterprises at Jan 3, 2023 5:14 PM -
I have no idea either. Yahoo is doing, wait and see approach but the game isn't being scheduled this week.
To cancel the game completely and not allow alternative players in the lineup would not be fair. To allow week 18 also would be less fair if many on your area sitting. I don't have an answer though.
JTP2 at Jan 3, 2023 2:29 PM -
I don't have any additional clarity but I agree with your assessment. Doesn't impact outcome of the third place game. Prayers to Hamlin
Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Jan 3, 2023 2:25 PM -
His post for reference- https://community.ottoneu.com/t/1-2-2023-bills-bengals-mnf-game-suspended/12410 . The second part he clarifies that "If this holds up through the day, the 2022 Ottoneu Fantasy Football season will be considered complete with no stats from last night’s game counting since it was postponed" which makes me believe that Akers becomes the champ by postponement?
Magic City Wings at Jan 3, 2023 1:15 PM -
Anyone see clarification from Niv on what's going to happen with the Bills-Bengals game stats? In his first post, he sounds like he'll wait until the game is replayed. In the follow up, it sounds like the stats will be cancelled off and the season concluded?
Magic City Wings at Jan 3, 2023 1:13 PM -
I accept your charity where I can find it, Akers. Big thanks to you and to Jaire Alexander. Thanks to Contender as well for the well-wishes.
B&S Enterprises at Jan 2, 2023 8:18 AM -
I am a dummy for not playing Daniel Jones - this will go down to the wire!
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Jan 1, 2023 3:42 PM -
Thanks, Contender. You were right there with us all year. Good luck in 3rd place game, and I’m sure you’ll be in the mix again next year
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Dec 30, 2022 5:30 PM -
Top 2 teams meet in the end as they should. Congrats to both, see ya next year!
Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Dec 29, 2022 7:30 PM -
Thanks, Kia, and good luck to you, Shower. Win or lose, it’s been a fun year
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Dec 27, 2022 10:04 PM -
Congratulations Shower and Green Akers. Gonna be a close finish. I am still surprised I made it this far. This is probably my last year of being able to compete without a rebuild.
JTP2 at Dec 27, 2022 1:19 PM -
I got super lucky.
JTP2 at Dec 19, 2022 11:26 PM -
Congrats and good luck to all in the playoffs!
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Dec 13, 2022 8:46 PM -
So the latest update on the last playoff spot- Miami is eliminated by virtue of same record as Doomsday but less points. If Magic City wins, he's in via 7 wins to Doomsday's 6. If Hopsmacker wins, he needs to score at least 138 points to jump Miami on points with same number of wins (6). Big game in Arizona tonight!
Magic City Wings at Dec 12, 2022 12:22 PM -
If I "make the dance", I'll be dancing with crutches. Man the team just didn't come together this year. We're kinda like a third chair French Horn player: we're going to have to play better if we want to get anywhere in life.
The Hopsmackers at Dec 8, 2022 6:20 PM -
Lol. That sucks. I am not counting on much. I need to catch luck in a bottle to have a chance like last year
JTP2 at Dec 7, 2022 4:30 PM -
Very exciting! Wouldve been nice to not be on a four game losing streak to allow this to happen but I’m here for it
Philly Tastykakes at Dec 7, 2022 4:18 PM -
Will be a fun weekend and really competitive playoffs this year. Lots of balance and good teams
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Dec 7, 2022 11:42 AM -
If I'm looking at it right, Miami is in with a win. Doomsday is in with a win over Miami by over 13 points. Magic City is in with a win AND a Miami loss. Hopsmacker is in with a Doomsday win, Hop win and Hop scores 26 more points than Doomsday. There is a scenario for Establish the Pass to get in, but he'd have to put up an insane amount of points.
Magic City Wings at Dec 7, 2022 9:53 AM -
A couple of key head-to-head games to decide the last playoff spot, should be an exciting weekend
Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Dec 7, 2022 9:42 AM -
Man, major drama in my Ottoneu hoops league I run. I’ll have to share those posts. Crazy!!
The Hopsmackers at Dec 1, 2022 12:08 AM -
Thanks for confirming its record and not division. I'd be up for changing that in the offseason but agree nothing can change until after the season.
Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Nov 29, 2022 12:28 PM -
In the off-season - we can vote on this. I can't make any changes for this year though. We have no secret bylaws - the only "bylaw" we have is I sort the divisions by total points for next season to try and balance the divisions
JTP2 at Nov 29, 2022 10:34 AM -
Ok. Based on past seasons, it is based on overall records. But, not sure of tiebreaker because in 2020, the team who was tied for 2nd best record but had less points than the other 9-4 team got the bye week.
JTP2 at Nov 29, 2022 10:32 AM -
I do not control that. I believe it is the winner of each division gets the bye weeks. Let me try and look at past seasons
JTP2 at Nov 29, 2022 10:28 AM -
Commish - Do the division winners each get a bye in the playoffs or is seeding done another way?
Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Nov 29, 2022 10:24 AM -
I know a bunch of people reached out. Make your very best offers and if anything strikes my fancy I’ll accept. Not looking to haggle. Send your best offer off the bat. I don’t think my team is in rough shape for next year
CATDOME at Nov 23, 2022 11:02 AM -
Yeah. Same. I have nothing to offer for win-now guys. Regardless - this off-season will be a full retool for me.
JTP2 at Nov 22, 2022 6:21 PM -
Love that people are going for it. No idea if it’ll work, but fun to try!
Green Akers is the Place to Be at Nov 22, 2022 6:13 PM -
Pretty clear what your thoughts were based on your most recent trade offer right after that trade went through. I am sure another will go through before the deadline that you can complain about once again.
Go Bills at Nov 20, 2022 8:08 PM -
Where would a facepalm even be relevant.... ?
Go Bills at Nov 20, 2022 7:42 PM -
Why the facepalm? You don't like the trade?
In my other league, I also got Stroud - it's superflex.
JTP2 at Nov 20, 2022 7:42 PM -
Can’t even put a facepalm emoji on the board.
B&S Enterprises at Nov 20, 2022 7:33 PM -
?????
B&S Enterprises at Nov 20, 2022 7:31 PM -
Good trade both sides
