To all those who are on the verge of a championship, let's finish the job. One. More. Week. Good luck all!

[@edsongarces622]

In 2 championships. What a ride, let’s get this W!!! Like this comment for a week 17 victory

[@SD-zx1uh]

I need to retweet this lol

[@quietstorm5989]

Agreed

[@andrewg3196]

remember when there was a saints thermometer at the beginning of the year 😂

[@Kittynelson4]

Merry Christmas best of luck to all the fantasy championships this year.

[@Tamagochiman12]

Lets goooooooooo!!! Lets get that title all of us :D

[@bmanly542]

First time in the championship in four years!! We just keep getting better every year. Good luck BALLERS!!

[@DrewSorensenMusic]

Same. Been 6 for me. It’s a game of attrition.

[@amonrodriguez3518]

@@DrewSorensenMusicfinally back in it. I stopped listening to these guys for any other reason then entertainment lately tho. They used to be a lot better. Funny how Many comments say, they are FINALLY back in the championship lol

Congrats!

[@snibletmaster1]

Made the championship in all 3 of my leagues this year! Watched every episode this year, thank y’all for everything.

Same here bro!

[@Saper29345]

Same here!

[@phillyg245]

I love how the betrayal continues to linger across ballers lore 😂

[@EligorXL]

Had the GB DEF with an 11 point lead going against Jacobs and Miller... I was blessed this day, held on by 3 points. GOING TO THE CHIP!!!

[@stevenmorrison1581]

I had Miller and only needed 2 points. He got 3 and I barely won!

[@i.bleed.green.2081]

I was up by less than 1 with only packers defense and my opponent had Jordan love. Christmas miracle! 😂

[@texasmade9727]

Yessir! Congrats. With Achane getting that last 50 yard run brought me to 18 against my opponent. Then I had Green Bay defense plus Miller. Them 2 made it possible for me to hang on with a 3 point lead as well. Hurts got injured which put me in that position. Anywho….I’m in the Championship in BOTH of my leagues! 🤯🤯

[@dasnake3164]

I was down 30 with Kraft and GB defense. They put up 24 points to help give me the win!!!

[@zacklynch6403]

Same I was down 13 with just the packers d!!! Let’s goooo🥳

[@ironeagle7664]

Started in a new keeper league 4 years ago when I started listening to you guys. 9th place (out of 10) in year one, 5th place in year two, won the championship last year and am in the championship again this year with Lamar starting me off good Wednesday night. Thanks for all your insights. It has helped a lot!

[@carlomedina1423]

The 9% who have Okonkwo are probably the people listening to this podcast 😂 guilty as charged

[@EnderEnigmaX]

My first year playing ff and I made the ship! I started listening when I was 2-6 but was able to go on a run and squeak in. Won the semi handily and have a fighting chance in the ship. Thanks for all the great advise along the way!

[@randycox2501]

Since I got knocked out of the playoffs in my main league I haven't watched too many videos. I decided to stop by and watch this one and also say Merry Christmas Ballers. There's always next year!!

[@shawnanderson9490]

Championship bound thanks to watching the pod all season... lucked into #2 overall draft pick (avoiding Run CMC) - Bijan, Achane, Bowers and Thomas Jr have been anchors all season... water on the rest. Happy Holidays.

[@SD-zx1uh]

Let’s get the W this week/weekend!!!!!!! 🏈🏆♥️ Merry Christmas 🎄🎁!!!!!!! Good luck!!!!!!!

[@outthetrunk3326]

Merry Christmas, everyone. Go get those championships.

[@ferndaaawg]

As someone who got into the Championship with James Conner and Bonezone as my RB’s, I now have to pivot to Spears, Pacheco, or Carter. Wish me luck foot clan 😰

[@miler2005]

Good luck buddy. I’m in a similar spot. I made it with Conner and Tracey. I have Benson and Singletary. I also added Edwards off waivers.

[@oceanstatefantasyfootball5562]

Back in the championship because of your guys recommendation and love for Trey McBride. Which is ironic because he dudded in the semis lol merry Christmas to the best fantasy football platform in existence.

[@keithdeal209]

Merry Christmas to you gentlemen, and the Footclan as well. You guys are simply the best at what you do.

[@itzbunt9336]

with the help of brian thomas in every league im in, ive successfully made 3 playoffs in 3 leagues, battled through the first round in 2 of them, went 3/3 in the semifinals and now await my glorious king brian thomas to deliver me once again, thank you brian. the church of briantology WILL bring home a championship this week

[@KCdaRula]

Back to back championship appearances. This year it was the hard way starting 0-4 and backed into the 6th and final playoff spot. Can win the chip but need Connor to be healthy and active. Come on James you’ve come this far. One more game that’s all!!!

[@brianbutler2531]

Thank you Fantasy Footballers. Made it to 2 championships!!! Good luck to everyone who made it.

[@SD-zx1uh]

Let’s get the W starting today for this week/weekend!!!!!!! 🏈🏆♥️ Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 everyone!!!!!!!

Merry Christmas Footballers! I appreciate you and today's show.

[@loganhackett6753]

Merry Christmas guys! Hope you have a good one. Made my championship this year by .32 points thanks to you guys and the amazing leg of Brandon McManus

[@Jokester954]

Survived semis against Jefferson, Jacobs and the Burrow+Higgins stack! Thank you Achane, Cook & Bowers!

[@frankiefernandez1220]

Never!!!show proof?

[@Jokester954]

@ I also have Chase, Addison, Mconkey & Jennings at flex. Stroud at QB. But cook, Achane and bowers got me 85 alone. Scored 168. Opponent scored 151

[@mikeinca3762]

Merry Christmas everyone! Enjoy the time with friends and family! That's what is all about 😊

[@BelieveInSkeptik]

Thank you for the "it's Christmas time!" ❄️ 🎅 🎁 🎄

[@alanpreisig2631]

Lost Hurts but BTJ saved me in 2 league's and in dfs!He's absolutely phenomenal!!!

[@deanbernstein7796]

Which 3 would you start: Henry vs Texans Kyren vs Cards JT vs Giants Bucky vs Panthers

[@chaundralachaundra]

Bucky… only because he splits the backfield and the other three really don’t.

[@deanbernstein7796]

@ yep totally agreed. Matchup with Texans scares me for The King, but hopefully he continues his Kingly ways

[@401doge3]

Merry Christmas Gents! Appreciate the dedication Labor of Love

[@A.Figueroa21]

Do I sit Kupp?

[@germainecrankfield2928]

Yes

[@trevorlacapra326]

For sure

[@Ptrip42]

First time back in the championship since 2018 the inaugural season of my main league that I commish! Let’s get it boys.

[@Mikey2Times]

Tied 111 - 111. Should it come down to head to head results or total points. He beat me twice, but I scored 140 more points than him on the year?

[@NolanJohnson423]

IMO total points, that’s tough for him tho

[@scottshannon3654]

It's like you guys are talking about my team. Need to start one of hunt, pacheco, or roll dice on carter or dobbins. Crazy situation but think I'm going Hunt

[@Jst9213]

Going for the back to back champ this year all thanks to the ballers ! Hope I can hold that title for another year 🙌🏼

[@gabrielcoggins2204]

Had to play Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah as my RB1 and RB2. The nasty boys are taking me to a back to back title! Merry Christmas footclan and ballers!

[@millsfinancialgroup]

13:07 I hate kickers. Nobody can ever convince me that a 3 pt field goal should ever be worth 6 fantasy points

[@dogsbreakfast4952]

If it’s a 60 yarder it should be

[@Thuase]

I won't waste my time trying to convince you, just going to say that your opinion sucks. 60 yard field goals should be rewarded

[@millsfinancialgroup]

@Thuase this show doesnt play kickers for these obvious reasons. Maybe you will listen to them

[@millsfinancialgroup]

@dogsbreakfast4952 rewarded? Why stop at kickers? Lets have fantasy punters, lineman, defensive backs. That sounds so fun

[@fantasyfootballalpha765]

@@millsfinancialgroupsomebody played a bad kicker :( 😅

[@dasnake3164]

I truly can’t thank yall enough, it’s not that I take every single piece of advice you guys offer, but for the whole season it feels like we are in the same boat along for the ride together, I’m in 4 leagues and made it to all 4 championships, one league fought back from 2-5…win lose or draw this has been my best fantasy year yet… let’s end this thing strong footclan!!!

[@BananaHammocks]

Never made a championship in 5 years. Made it in dynasty and my regular league. Appreciate the info the past few years, learned so much!

[@iamhim2285]

12-2, #1 seed, and playing for THE CROWN by surviving my QB Allen last week! Feels good!

In the championship in 2/3 leagues! And playing for 3rd in the last one 💪💪 thanks boys

Somehow alive with Josh Allen in 1 league and Jalen Hurts in another. Should've picked up backup qbs weeks ago, let's see which nasty QBs I pick up for 🎄

[@cardinalsfan9610]

Kendre Miller did *just* enough for me to advance to the title game in one of my two leagues. I'm playing in title games in both, thankfully. Best of luck to everyone in their title pursuits this week!

[@bmoney2953]

Made it to the chip in 6/7 leagues 👌🏾. Hoping to become a multi-league champ and a back to back to back champ in my home league!! Let’s go Ballers, Merry Christmas 🎄

[@MrHighCeiling]

In the ship in 2 of 6 leagues ..should be 3 of 6 + still in Mega. Up a few Gs on the szn, it's been successful yet again

Needed 43 from Jacobs love and packers D !! Chip bound let’s go

[@lesisboymangod5837]

Going into last night I was up by 5. I had the GB defense and my best friend who I was playing had Josh Jacobs. I ended up winning by 1.5 points. It feels dirty, but I’ll take it! Merry Christmas Footballers!!

[@Thrasher987]

Andy! I feel your sister’s pain. I was already down Kamara and Montgomery then lost Conner. Lost a chance to defend my title by 4.75 points when Josh Jacobs put 16 on me. I had Kendre Miller going as a prayer replacement for Kamara. Puke. Send your sister my condolences lol

[@natekruck7544]

Merry Christmas! Good luck to all my fellow championship contenders! 🤝

[@tannerfarkas8744]

In ship but already looking forward to next year. Get to keep two players who were drafted 4th round and later. Who would you keep of the following: -JT 6th round (kept him from prior year, only get 1 more year of keeprr eligibility) -Brian Thomas Jr 11th -Bowers 13th -Hubbard 14th

[@fluteisland]

BTJ and Bowers

[@Farr254]

Pick ONE for Week 17 PPR…CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND! Jerome Ford versus Dolphins Garrett Wilson versus Bills Keenan Allen versus Seahawks Courtland Sutton versus Bengals Tyreek Hill versus Browns Ladd McConkey versus Patriots

[@ManuelEusebio-m7b]

I need a Josh Allen miracle!!! Let’s win this Championship!!!

Just a heads up, broncos bengals game is supposed to be rainy with 15-25mph winds!!

[@Baz66.]

Any concerns with James Cook if the Chiefs wrap up the Bye on Wed.?

[@ItsBatmansVoice]

Pick 2. Hollywood brown, Ridley and mcmillan. Pick 1. Andrews or chig

[@miler2005]

Ridley and McMillan. Andrews.

[@salvadoraguilera9237]

I’m in the ship. My line up. Lamar ,tyreek ,Jennings ,achane ,swift ,Jonnu ,worthy ,Vikings kicker colts on defense. So far up by21 points. Opponent played 4 players already

[@tomkumagaimusic]

You would start Worthy and watch Hollywood and DHop get all the highlights!

First time making it to the finals. Made it to the final of 3/3 leagues!! 🎉

[@NMaster-lp8yz]

Do you think that Baltimore playing a Pickens-less Steelers and the Giants the last 2 weeks helped their Defense appear better lately?

In 4 leagues and made the Super Bowl in 3 of them. Shout out to the Ballers for getting me through the season!! 🙏🏼

I’m at work too, feel your pain. Joined a decent buyin, keeper league 4 years ago. I’m in the 3rd championship game, thanks ballers! Let’s go, boys! One more week!

[@Urddybtchh]

Best idp to start ? Bobby Wagner or Fred Warner ?

[@Angelo-uo2gj]

Is it crazy to prioritize the Dolphins DST over Chig on waivers? I need a TE and DST and my opp only needs a DST. Hoping to block them from getting the Dolphins (only good def on waivers) and then pick up Chig the next round of waivers.

[@chriselkins6771]

Depends if you think they are someone active on waivers that would try to block you on chig. If not then I'd do that. Otherwise prioritize your team and get Chig if they might try to get him

[@jamaalchardavoine1453]

Guys my prayers were answered had to play against Jayden Reed while I had the packers defense : FINAL SCORE 185.48-185.44 I WON

[@marlonefigueroa7781]

Yesterday was absolutely brutal for me… was down by 18.60 points with only Bucky Irving left to play. With 9 minutes left in the game, Bucky already had 18.20 points and I had 99.23% of winning. Bucky did not touch the ball again for the remainder of the game. I lost 117.94 to 118.34 😢😢😢

[@TheARehmar]

It could be worse…I lost a championship match a few years ago by .04 points because of a meaningless garbage time throw by the dolphins in a 4th qtr blow out.
