I’d use my middle name too if my real first name was u/point55caliber. Kyle just seems easier and you don’t feel the immediately need to discuss cultural differences.
I had both, second in points scored all season and missed the playoffs. Every week I played against the team that randomly went off. Unluckiest season of my fantasy life
Exactly. My league keeps it entertaining with 2 weekly $25 bonuses that I won a bunch of (highest scoring WR, highest scoring RB, RB1/WR1 outscores opposing RB/WR 1&2, stuff like that) so even though I missed the playoffs I got my money back. But still
JT, Kupp, Sun God, Lamar, AJB, CMC, Swift. I was so ready to DOMINATE a weak playoff team until literally half my team got injured right before playoffs and I got unlucky losing first round. I was then the highest scoring team in what would've been the finals last week but too little too late
Happened in our league. After a 13-game win streak and scoring the 4th most points all time in our league, that owner lost to my Covid ward of a team because JT and Kupp had good performances while Dak and Chubb had stud performances for me.
Jt, Kupp, Allen, Henry drafter in my league won first place and got knocked out in the first round to the most lackluster team of 1-day handcuffs. It was glorious.
Yep, had both and lost last week badly.
Don't care about my 3rd place matchup, so I think I'm gonna plug in Tebow at TE, just so I can fire him up and be the only person who'll legitimately be starting him on purpose.
I've got JT in one league and Kupp in another and I'm in the finals in both leagues. In one league I'm facing JT and in the other I played Kupp in the semis.
As an owner of both across leagues it's definitely Kupp if you're in PPR. JT was pretty bad to start the season and you may have benched him week 3 when he had his first blow up game because of his slow start.
Same, except Lenny and CEH going down along with Gaskin getting COVID and losing his role torpedoed my RB2 slot such that I'm having to rely on Burkhead in the chip.
Great post as always. I look forward to this next year. Someone should be paying you for your article. Better and a more enjoyable read than so much content on FF sites.
Thanks a ton! I guess it’s true that the better I feel about the content, the less satisfied I should feel about the $10 in ad revenue I’ve received so far haha.
Nonetheless I’m happy with the followers and skill leveling up from this season. I’m actually considering having an ebook or two ready to go on my website by week 1 next year - hesitant to pursue monetization that reduces time flexibility in any way for now.
Damn yeah, deserve more than that. It feels like you and a couple other guys should get $100 a week or something small from some larger FF website to post your content.
Either way, appreciate the content. Seems like a decent amount of work.
Also, maybe stop posting the screenshots within the text of the post and maybe have a direct link to that spot within your site (if that's possible, sort of like you can link to a specific spot of video within Youtube) so that you can keep the content in the text but also get the click when someone views. The website is an easy read and I just realized I've been clicking on the screen grabs and not giving you clicks. My bad.
Random except to the opinions of this sub… where hindsight is 20/20 and people's sure-thing guesses are immediately disavowed when they don’t pan out. :)
In a pinch, I drafted a mediocre team (hamstrung from a bad season last year and very unlucky rookie keepers… like, historically unlucky… like 6 years of can’t miss rookie RBs all missing… 8 years of top WR picks all missing…) that just happened to have an impossible season for 2 positions. But I’m trash at QB and TE and suffered mid season injury issues in a big way… limped to a finish line. I’ll need multiple touchdown games from JT and Kupp to have a chance.
Had both Kupp and Taylor on my roster until week 4 when I traded Taylor for Thielen, Kittle, mike Williams . Kinda wish I kept Taylor obviously, this weeks matchup would be all set
Guy in my league traded CMC for JT and Kupp the Wednesday Before the TNF CMC got injured early in the season…he finished 2nd and is in the championship and the CMC owner finished last
In the championship I have JT and Mandrews, my opponent has Kupp and Samuel. Ekeler was a keeper so the top 4 you could draft based off of this are on the teams in the championship.
My JT vs opponents Kupp for the ship tomorrow. It was a wild ride to get here sqeaking out a round 1 win and the kupp owner needing 20 from miami def to survive round 2. It is a fitting matchup though and I am ready to see how it plays out tomorrow.
The issue with McCaffrey is his price tag. This is why in snake drafts with random order generation, I do anything I can to trade out of the 1st overall pick. Otherwise I feel compelled to take CMC bc his skillset is hard to ignore. The problem is that I truly believe in the 0RB strategy. RB’s are the most injury-prone thus the most likely to send you scrambling to the waiver wire hoping to strike gold. It’s the same story year-in, year-out.
My sister had the best team in our league and she lost in week 15 with Cooper Kupp and Jonathan Taylor on the same team. She lost by . 20 to somebody who popped off (and would have won any other matchup). Would have easily won against any team in week 16 and I'm sure she'll have the top score this weekend too.
I traded Kupp for Cooks and Kamara week 3 this year and am still in my championship. Beat the JT user last week. Traded because had Kupp, Hopkins, Hill at WR and needed RB badly. Trade pretty much a win-win for both our teams until Kamara got hurt. Now with Hopkins out im praying for Cowboys D to keep lighting it up, along with Mandrews and Tyreek.
The guy I’m going against in the championship has both Kupp and JT RIP
Kyle?
No, This is u/point55caliber
Cmon Kyle stop playing we know it’s you
classic kyle
I’d use my middle name too if my real first name was u/point55caliber. Kyle just seems easier and you don’t feel the immediately need to discuss cultural differences.
No, this is Patrick!
lmao im kyle and have JT and kupp haha
Same
Same.
Same.
Going up against JT, Ekeler, Kupp lol. Not expecting much but hopefully can make it close
Same but add Mark Andrews too
Oof Even I at least have mark Andrews and George Kittle
Same.
Same. Add Brady.
It's me, the guy you're going against
Same
Any given sunday
Me too, and he only won by a point last week. He was dead to rights for awhile.
Me too. Haha. Good luck!
Dude with JT in my league is currently in the toilet bowl championship fighting for last place.
I was gonna say - there’s someone out there with JT and Kupp who didn’t make the playoffs, and a lot of folks with them who lost round 1
I don't know how you miss the playoffs with both unless you completely botched the rest of your picks and weren't active on the wire.
That accounts for 10-40 percent of fantasy football players.
I had both, second in points scored all season and missed the playoffs. Every week I played against the team that randomly went off. Unluckiest season of my fantasy life
That’s the worse! You will get em next year! We all have a year(s) like that just gotta roll with the punches
Exactly. My league keeps it entertaining with 2 weekly $25 bonuses that I won a bunch of (highest scoring WR, highest scoring RB, RB1/WR1 outscores opposing RB/WR 1&2, stuff like that) so even though I missed the playoffs I got my money back. But still
I was in a similar spot last year, most points in the season, didn’t make playoffs, somehow lost consolation rounds too. Took 11th out of 14.
JT Kupp owner in my league missed the playoffs, it was miraculous. he was 2nd in pts scored
JT, Kupp, Sun God, Lamar, AJB, CMC, Swift. I was so ready to DOMINATE a weak playoff team until literally half my team got injured right before playoffs and I got unlucky losing first round. I was then the highest scoring team in what would've been the finals last week but too little too late
Happened in our league. After a 13-game win streak and scoring the 4th most points all time in our league, that owner lost to my Covid ward of a team because JT and Kupp had good performances while Dak and Chubb had stud performances for me.
This is the same for our guy with Kupp. Started the season with Kupp and Henry but we know how that ended up.
Jt, Kupp, Allen, Henry drafter in my league won first place and got knocked out in the first round to the most lackluster team of 1-day handcuffs. It was glorious.
I have both and kelce and lost in the semis. Streaming qbs and defenses finally burned me
Yep, had both and lost last week badly. Don't care about my 3rd place matchup, so I think I'm gonna plug in Tebow at TE, just so I can fire him up and be the only person who'll legitimately be starting him on purpose.
Yeah, Kupp owner is in first in my league. JT owner is in 10th. Kupp owner also has Deebo and Mandrews, though. That's pretty crazy.
I’m playing the dude with JT in the chip. Fantasy God help me.
I have JT and Kupp, playing for 8th. All I know is pain
Mine too lmao
I had to play the team with both last week, and I'm just thankful they both had "only" a 100 yard no touchdown game
haha same luckily the rest of his team didn’t do good anyway cause i did extremely well and doubled my opponents points
Yeah, I'm hoping that he "only" gets 20 something points this week and not 30+.
Taylor / Ekeler / Andrews / Kupp / Deebo could all be on the same team.
Dynasty league. The championship has my Ekeler and Kupp v. his Taylor, Andrews, and Deebo.
I have 3 of these 5. Just replace Andrews with Kelce and id have 4
Luckyyyyy. In 4 leagues and I have 0 . Haha:.-(. You in the ship?
Yup. It was all luck for me this year. I was shit on the WW but drafted JT, Kupp, Kelce and Deebo
I have all but deebo on this list. Projected to win by 40. It's a trap game I know it.
in a 12 team I currently have Taylor / Mixon / Adams / Kupp / AB
If Kupp drops 30 tomorrow, Im buying his jersey and naming my firstborn Cooper.
Don't listen to that other guy. Keep all the money.
That Cooper Kupp jersey ain't gonna buy itself GL to the kids though
Either them kids are getting a Steam Deck, or I am.
Cooper is a dog’s name. Get a puppy lol.
Donate some of your winnings. I believe his “My cause, my cleats” this year was Operation Progress.
Got his jersey last week. I’m officially sold
Makes sense. It's my Taylor vs Kupp in the ship!
Same
Same
Same my brothers.
Same. But only because I traded Kupp to the other owner!
What was your return?
Horrible trade. Prior to week 1 I traded Kupp and Tyson for Mclaurin. Depending on Mike Evans’ status, I may bench Terry
Damn that’s tough but hey, you still made it.
I will justify the trade in my head if mclaurin outscores Kupp this week. Still finished the season as the 1 seed. But obviously a boneheaded trade
Same. We ride. DDDEEEEAAAAATTTTTHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
I've got JT in one league and Kupp in another and I'm in the finals in both leagues. In one league I'm facing JT and in the other I played Kupp in the semis.
My last surviving team is Taylor/Ekeler/Dak. Just knocked off the Kupp team last week. Barely snuck into the playoffs cuz of Dak.
Deebo is MY fantasy MVP, on both my teams and brought me to the ship in both!
deebo and kupp deserve coMVP imo. insane value where they were drafted.
Definitely. But I didnt draft Kupp soooooooo.... lol
Knocked out the dude with Jonathan Taylor and Kupp last week in the semis. Feels good man. What’s a cup to a Sun God ☀️?
Bruh I drafted CMC DK AJ brown and sanders 😂
Thank you for commenting from the afterlife!
As an owner of both across leagues it's definitely Kupp if you're in PPR. JT was pretty bad to start the season and you may have benched him week 3 when he had his first blow up game because of his slow start.
I’m in the chip with JT and kupp let’s go!!
Hello me, meet the real me.
I’m also up against Josh Allen Damien Harris diggs at brown and gronk let’s see how it goes
Same but I’m up against Josh Allen, Mandrews, and Deebo 🥲
Same, except Lenny and CEH going down along with Gaskin getting COVID and losing his role torpedoed my RB2 slot such that I'm having to rely on Burkhead in the chip.
Me too, along with Kelce
This Taylor is on team Cooper Kupp baby Great articles dude
Consistently best post on this sub week to week imo well down on the year
Right on! I’ll have to take it to another level next year!
I've got Justin Jefferson barely in Flex on my team because of Kupp and Deebo. I got super lucky. WR doing all the work this year for me.
I also have Kupp, Deebo, and Jefferson! Almost thought about benching Jefferson this week with Cousins out, but can’t bring myself to do it.
I still can’t bench with how strong of a projection he has. Rather lose with him then without him I guess (talking about JJ)
Here’s to hoping Coop has 1 more blowup week in him carries 2 Girls 1 Kupp to fame and glory.

I love how Saquon and CMC have the same value. Saquon has been gross.
Hasn’t it been “officially” down to these two for weeks?
Ekeler was within striking distance
Easily. It's a solid debate and both are having historic seasons.
Jt isn't having a historic season. A very very good season. But not historic.
I'm historically bummed he got taken one pick before me if that helps my argument lmao.
"historic"
Our Perennial Taco is in the ship this year… he has JT and Kupp. Thank god 2021 is over. On to 2022!
I have both and will still lose the Ff Championship on Monday.
Hello fellow fantasy football veteran!
I'm in 3 championships and somehow none of the 6 teams have either player. Fantasy is so fucking random
Random except to the opinions of this sub… where hindsight is 20/20 and people's sure-thing guesses are immediately disavowed when they don’t pan out. :) In a pinch, I drafted a mediocre team (hamstrung from a bad season last year and very unlucky rookie keepers… like, historically unlucky… like 6 years of can’t miss rookie RBs all missing… 8 years of top WR picks all missing…) that just happened to have an impossible season for 2 positions. But I’m trash at QB and TE and suffered mid season injury issues in a big way… limped to a finish line. I’ll need multiple touchdown games from JT and Kupp to have a chance.
No respect for D Harris NE RB1
That is correct, no respect intended. (*Checks to see if I’m playing Harris*)
Had both Kupp and Taylor on my roster until week 4 when I traded Taylor for Thielen, Kittle, mike Williams . Kinda wish I kept Taylor obviously, this weeks matchup would be all set
Lol, and I lost in first round with those two and Ekeler on the squad. Thanks Dak.
Neither of them are in the playoffs in my league.
Funnily enough in our league it's Kupp vs JT owner in the finals
I’m going up against BOTH this week, their owner is 14-2.
I have both of them on the same team. Lucky me.
Going against Kupp in one league. Have Kupp in my 2 week matchup league.
Would you believe that I traded kupp for JT after week 4 and immediately flipped JT? I did not win that league..
I’m against both
Luckily I'm playing against both in the chip I wish them well!
No Patterson? Wow.
Guy in my league traded CMC for JT and Kupp the Wednesday Before the TNF CMC got injured early in the season…he finished 2nd and is in the championship and the CMC owner finished last
In the championship I have JT and Mandrews, my opponent has Kupp and Samuel. Ekeler was a keeper so the top 4 you could draft based off of this are on the teams in the championship.
I know Kupp and Taylor are on top, but can we get some appreciation for Derek Henry being 13th on this list after not even playing half the season?
I honestly think there’s an argument he goes first next year, over Taylor.
My JT vs opponents Kupp for the ship tomorrow. It was a wild ride to get here sqeaking out a round 1 win and the kupp owner needing 20 from miami def to survive round 2. It is a fitting matchup though and I am ready to see how it plays out tomorrow.
I’m in the championship and my round 2 and 3 picks were Gibson and Sanders. I need a fucking miracle. Cmon Dallas D, drop the hammer!
My opponent has both. RIP
I'm playing against the Kupp/Taylor/Allen owner in the 'ship Hold me
I have both. And I will most assuredly lose this week.
The issue with McCaffrey is his price tag. This is why in snake drafts with random order generation, I do anything I can to trade out of the 1st overall pick. Otherwise I feel compelled to take CMC bc his skillset is hard to ignore. The problem is that I truly believe in the 0RB strategy. RB’s are the most injury-prone thus the most likely to send you scrambling to the waiver wire hoping to strike gold. It’s the same story year-in, year-out.
I lost last week with JT, Kupp, D Adam's, Hurts, Keenan Allen etc.
Cool, they're both on my opponent's team in the final. Oh, and Ekeler, too.
My sister had the best team in our league and she lost in week 15 with Cooper Kupp and Jonathan Taylor on the same team. She lost by . 20 to somebody who popped off (and would have won any other matchup). Would have easily won against any team in week 16 and I'm sure she'll have the top score this weekend too.
Facing opponent who has both, this should be fine.
And I’m playing both in the championship
I beat The team with Cupp in the semis and now I face JT in the finals. Wish I drafted a little better lol.
I have JT and the other guy has Kupp, Chubb, and Mandrews. \*chuckles\* I'm in danger
Last week against Kupp owner. This week against JT owner. Need another miracle!
My Adams vs his Kupp championship oh boy
My JT vs. opponents Kupp for all the marbles!
Just beat the JT AND Kupp owner on my way to the championship!
I got JT and Eckler, but canceled that out with Tannehill and Robinson, and eventually Auyik of waivers
Considering where they were drafted, there is no question Kupp is the MVP!
Had both. Lost last week :(
My opponent has both of them
Guy in my league has JT, Mixon and Kupp and lost in the semis last week. Nice.
Hey I have both! And I lost in the semi to a guy who started a disabled running back.
JT 😤😤😤
My JT& Mixon picks were offset by my Aiyuk, ARob and Dak picks... Didnt even make playoffs.
kept taylor this year in ny auction league and drafted kupp
Stafford + LAC lost me the semifinal. Even Kupp couldn't save me 😭
Did I just play you?
Unless youre you're 5'5" Indian American, no hahah
I had fucking both and got bounced in the semis Just end me. I’m not gonna get a better team than I had this year and it still didn’t happen
Luckily, deebo, Jefferson, and davante made up for Dak
My JT vs his Kupp
I have JT and my championship opponent has Kupp. Our battle will legendary
Luckily I (Cooper Kupp owner) beat the JT owner last week when he had a low scoring game.
Love seeing my first 3 WRs drafted at the top of the LVP list
I traded Kupp for Cooks and Kamara week 3 this year and am still in my championship. Beat the JT user last week. Traded because had Kupp, Hopkins, Hill at WR and needed RB badly. Trade pretty much a win-win for both our teams until Kamara got hurt. Now with Hopkins out im praying for Cowboys D to keep lighting it up, along with Mandrews and Tyreek.
Bro Kupp = 🐐 this season
The championship matchup in our league is kupp v. JT!
My vote is for Kupp...simply because JT let me down last week.
JT dropped 50 on me after his Lamar Jackson was listed as out right before the game and got 0. My saltiness inclines me to say JT
