Week 15

The Real McCoy (9-5) vs Tavon and Only (8-6)

It's that time of year again, playoff time! Before we get into this preview congratulations to all the playoff participants. This has been a year for the ages. Tavon is coming off the biggest win in franchise history, winning a play in game to make the playoffs. On the other side, McCoy keeps taking big shots to his roster, losing Thomas Rawls (for the season) and Tyler Eifert (for the time being). These players add to the losses of Jamaal Charles and Mark Ingram. McCoy fans feel this has been the best managed season in franchise history. Losing all those players and getting the #1 seed was truly an accomplishment (Sidenote: Recieved 0 votes for best manager in the MFFL this season). However, there is still a game to be played and while this team doesn't look great on paper, crazy things can happen in the playoffs. This will be round 3 this season for McCoy vs Tavon. But as McCoy knows, everything that happened in the regular season is out the window.  This week McCoy needs big weeks out of his stars and just enough contributions from the other players. Again, it will need to be a team effort. Tavon has arguably his best matchup support and down his team that he's had all season and appears to be peaking at the right time. McCoy desperately needs his stars to be kept in check. Good luck to both managers and let the chips fall where they may. Week 15 starters are:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Darren McFadden
RB - Giovani Bernard
WR - Odell Beckham Jr.
WR - Danny Amendola (assuming Edelman is out)
TE - Julius Thomas
Flex - Sammy Watkins
K - Chris Boswell
DEF - Carolina Panthers

Tune in, well because it's the playoffs baby!

Week 11 Matchup

The Real McCoy (6-4) vs Imperium (6-4)

McCoy is on a two game losing streak. Things only get tougher this week against an Imperium team due for a win. It will be tough with beckham and Ingram on byes. McCoy couldn't eve score 100 pts with them. This could be a long week. But anything is possible in fantasy. Week 11 starters:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Darren McFadden
RB - Gio Bernard
WR - Stefon diggs
WR. - Danny amendola
TE - Tyler eifert

Week 10 matchup

The Real McCoy (6-3) vs El Pollo Loco (3-6)

Coming off a tough loss McCoy hopes to bounce back in week 10. Although it did not start off well for McCoy (decker 20 pts, jets def 9 pts) the matchup is never over. People expect for McCoy to beat el pollo because that has what has happened in the past. However McCoy knows that those past matchup mean ABSOLUTELY nothing. Loco is a team to fear with a very good lineup. McCoy has some tough match ups this week making it even more difficult. A win this week would be huge but it will be a huge challenge to get it. But that's why they play the games. Week 10 lineup is as follows:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Mark Ingram
RB - Darren McFadden
WR - Odell Beckham
WR - Stefon Diggs
TE - Tyler Eifert
Flex - Gio Bernard
K - Justin Tucker
Def - St Louis rams

Week 9 Matchup

The Real McCoy (6-2) vs Whitner Wonderland (3-5)

The Real McCoy is coming off another big victory against the east divisional leader. This marks the fifth straight win and somehow this team has managed to be undefeated since losing Charles. Fans are all shocked this has happened and McCoy has even surprised themselves. McCoy is second in the league in points per game behind unlucky unstopabo. They hope this continues on the path to another playoff appearance. In the latest poll, votes were split between McCoy, imperium! and unstopabo to who would win the west. McCoy hopes to win fans over and get them on their side. The thing that has kept McCoy afloat is the fact that 1 player seems to step up each week as well as an overall team effort from QB down to kicker and defense. This must keep up for McCoy to keep winning. Two new faces join the lineup this week with QB jameis winston and kicker john brown. We expect nothing less than solid outings from them as they get a chance to start. Whitner is coming off a big win against imperium where drew Brees put up 51 pts! 51 pts! That makes it difficult for anyone to beat that. Both teams have two players on bye week. McCoy hopes for another big win this week and to get one step closer to the playoffs. Week 9 starters are as follows:

QB - Jameis Winston
WR - Odell Beckham Jr
WR - Stefon Diggs
RB - Mark Ingram 
RB - Darren McFadden 
TE - Tyler Eifert
Flex - Giovani Bernard
K - John Brown
Def - St Louis Rams

Week 8 Matchup



The Real McCoy (5-2) vs Advantageous Morgans (5-2)

Coming off a big win last week against Imperium, McCoy looks to continue the momentum against another very good team in the 5-2 Morgans. McCoy continues to preach to his players that each person much contribute as it's not a team of stars.  The Morgans are led by a great WR core and McCoy is hoping his wrs can keep up just enough. These are both teams who are tying to earn respect this season and possibly going for the number 1 ranking this week. At the end of the day McCoy isn't concerned with the number 1 ranking right now.  All they hope to achieve is a win against the Morgans for one step closer to the playoffs. After a strong outing last week McFadden gets the start again. McCoy is hoping he can seize the opportunity and stay on the field. There are two new additions to the starting lineup: welcome Stefon diggs and justin tucker. Diggs was so close to get in the lineup last week but earned his promotion to the lineup this week through his play.  This is an important game for both teams and will be a battle between two managers who don't give up. Week 8 starters are as follows: 

QB - Carson Palmer
WR - Odell Beckham Jr
WR - Stefon Diggs
RB - Mark Ingram 
RB - Darren McFadden 
TE - Tyler Eifert
Flex - Giovani Bernard
K - Justin Tucker 
Def - St Louis Rams

Week 7 matchup

The Real McCoy (4-2) vs Imperium (6-0)

Arguably the matchup of the week McCoy plays undefeated Imperium. These two teams have typically been at the top of the west division.  This year is no different so far as both are in the too 4 in the overall league standings. While McCoy fans have not felt confident about the team somehow they have managed to do pretty decent to this point in time. The loss of Jamaal Charles is a huge blow to this teams outlook for the season but make no mistake that manager Brian johnson will not give up on trying to win week in and week out. The lineup certainly won't look as good as others but McCoy hopes to field a team full of guys who all contribute each week. Imperium is looking to tie the best start to a MFFL season at 7-0.  They are led by a fantastic group of wrs who have been performing very very well. His other positions have been kind of similar to McCoy where the players may not be studs but get the job done. And that's all that matters at the end of the day.  McCoy has been the underdog as of late and this week is no different as they are without the services of two starters in gio Bernard and Tyler Eifert. Imperium is without starting RB Eddie lacy as well.  The keys to this game include if imperiums wrs can continue to play at this high level and if McCoy can find some good fill in players while getting solid play from their starters. McCoy would like to welcome Darren McFadden, Ladarius green, and chandler Catanzaro to the lineup for the first time the season. Look for a close matchup this week. Week 7 starters include:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Mark Ingram
RB - Darren McFadden
WR - Odell beckham jr
WR - Donte moncrief
Flex - Pierre garçon
TE - Ladarius green
K - Chandler Catanzaro
Def - Rams

Week 5 Matchup

The Real McCoy (2-2) vs Perpetual Dynasty (1-3)

As always, this is one of the biggest games if the year. But unusual is the fact that both teams are finding it tough to find a good product on the field each week.  This game started Thursday night with moncrief only managing 1 pt, his worst outing of the year. Dynasty started with 22 pts from foster and Houston defense. This still has a long ways to go and both managers hope their teams can pick it up and get a win. McCoy will need their stars to show up and get good production out of everyone else after a 1 pt performance Thursday. Fans are excited to see who will win. Starters are as follows:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Jamaal Charles
RB - mark Ingram
WR - Odell beckham jr
WR - Pierre garçon
Flex - donte moncrief
TE - Tyler eifert
K - Matt Bryant
Def - Baltimore

The possible key player of this game for McCoy is eifert. He has a tough matchup against Seattle but if he can have good production it will mean a lot in this matchup. Defense is another big position for McCoy. The Carolina performance was huge for last weeks win, Baltimore hasn't been great but McCoy is hoping for some sacks and tons against Cleveland. This matchup is on pace to be lower scoring but both teams have players who could turn that around. Tune in Sunday!

Week 4 matchup

The Real McCoy (1-2) vs El Pollo Loco (1-2)

Mccloy fans have been disappointed to the start of the season. Inconsistency has plagued this young season. Managers are yet  again are counting out McCoy. Kind of a weird concept for someone who has two championships. While McCoy hasn't played great, if players can start putting it together the same week good things will happen. Changes will surely be made as the season goes on with the roster. However, the right trade hasn't been on the table yet. The philosophy of this team is to not trade just to trade. Not trade players fully based on potential when production hasn't been there. It needs to make sense and build the team McCoy wants. The opponent this week is El Pollo loco who is without Big Ben and Edelman, and possibly lynch. However never count out any team in a given week. This early fantasy season has been weird and unexpected performances have happened. Players will slow down and others will step back up. McCoy hoes to get to .500 in this tough matchup. Week 4 starters are as follows:

QB - Carson Palmer
RB - Jamaal Charles
Rb - mark Ingram
WR - ODB
WR- donate moncrief
TE - Tyler eifert
Flex - gio Bernard
K - Matt Bryant
Def - Carolina

Welcome goo Bernard to the lineup. This could be the week hill starts playing better but in the meantime we hope gio keeps getting the ball. Eifert will need to bounce back from a goose egg. And we think he will. The stars need to keep being stars in Palmer, Charles, and ODB for this team to win. Carolina defense also gets more interesting after acquiring Jared Allen. Look for a good matchup this week as McCoy tries to get an important win.

Week 2 matchup

The Real McCoy (0-1) vs Unstopabo (0-1)

McCoy is coming off a disappointing first week loss. It's tough to get a win when your star players don't perform well. Some fans may think it's time to panic for McCoy, however while there is a shake up in the lineup that does not mean panic is setting in. The goal each and every week is to put the players in the lineup do you think will perform the best. This week four new players will join the starting lineup for McCoy. This matchup started Thursday night when McCoy had running back Jamaal Charles and unstopabo had kicker Brandon McManus. McCoy is currently winning 20 to 9. Furthermore it was a positive to see Peyton Manning perform well against a tough defense on the road. The starting lineup for the real McCoy this week includes:

Quarterback - Carson Palmer
Running back – Jamaal Charles
Running back – Mark Ingram
Wide receiver – ODB
Wide receiver – Terrence Williams
Tight end - Tyler Eifert
Flex - Donte Moncrief
Kicker – Matt Bryant
Defense – St. Louis Rams

McCoy looks to exploit good matchups this week starting with quarterback Carson Palmer against the Chicago Bears defense. Carson Palmer has thrown for at least two touchdown passes in seven straight games dating back to last season excluding when he got hurt. If CJ Spiller is out look for Mark Ingram to get more work through the air again. Beckham needs to perform better than he did last week and fans think he will bounce back. Terrence Williams takes over for does Bryant after his injury and is the top receiver for Tony Romo. Tyler Eifert is coming off a huge performance against Oakland. Will he continue it? We'll find out. Moncrief is a surprise addition to the lineup instead of Andre Johnson however the idea is that Revis will cover Johnson and Moncrief will have a better match up. The Rams defense had six sacks against Seattle team he generally doesn't give up too many defensive pts. Against the Washington offense the St. Louis team should have plenty of opportunities to perform well. McCoy has traditionally bounced back after a loss and I hope that continues this week as 0-2 would not be a good hole to be in after two weeks.
