We got off to a lukewarm start in our initial rankings, as we had the Titans and Seahawks winning, but we invested deeply in the Saints players, hoping to get four games out of them. We will not get four games out of them. We needed MOAR Taysom Hill! But I digress.
Many fantasy playoff leagues allow you to re-draft each round, so we’ll give it another go with some updated rankings for the Divisional round through the Super Bowl. For initial rankings we had the Ravens playing the Saints in the Super Bowl. We’ll stick with the Ravens in our updated rankings as a team to play three games and make it to the “big game,” but who will come out of the NFC? The 49ers are the clear favorites with home field advantage and the Saints out of the picture.
San Francisco already whooped the Packers and are 1-1 this season against the Seahawks. The Vikings showed they can hang with the big boys by going into New Orleans and winning but I’ll give Kyle Shanahan and a well-rested team at home the advantage.
If the Seahawks beat the Packers, they’ve shown they can beat the 49ers on their home turf and came close at home, so I expect it will be a close game but I’m going to lean toward the 49ers at home, which would give us three games from the gold miners. That’s the thinking that will go into these rankings below:
