Henry's World

Rare Woofs could clinch the regular season title with a win this week, but must go through the red hot Tug of War to do so. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Bark Force Record: (3-9, 6th place) Now on a four game losing streak, Bark Force are desperate to salvage anything from this season, and do at least get back Patrick Mahomes and Hunter Henry this week. They will also start D.J. Moore in the flex after his excellent performance against the Saints, and drop last week's starting quarterback, Matt Ryan, for Kirk Cousins. Finally, they'll start the Rams defense against the Cardinals as the Bills defense have a tough matchup in Dallas.

Leaping Girl is put under pressure against the onslaught of Tug of War and Rascal desperately fights to keep his playoff hopes alive in Week 12 of the Dog League. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Game 1: Ridiculous Rascals vs Tailwaggerz Both of these teams have been ice cold the past month or so, and Tailwaggerz would secure a playoff spot with a win, eliminating Rascal from contention. The defending champs got off to a good start on Thursday thanks to Deshaun Watson(18.92 points). Sunday looked good on the outset for them, as the two Saints, Alvin Kamara(19.2 points) and Jared Cook(21.9 points) joined up with the revitalized Odell Beckham(20.4 points) to hold the lead. But it was the inconsistency of Tailwaggerz that cost them, as an unexpected horrible day from Josh Jacobs(4.6 points) and the awful performances of Matt Gay(2 points) and the Raiders defense(2 points) gave Rascal a lifeline. Rascal's waiver moves proved to be c...

With just three games left in the year, Bark Force looks to finally beat Rare Woofs while Tug of War and Leaping Girl put winning streaks on the line. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Ridiculous Rascals Current Record: (3-8, 6th place) With injuries ravaging his team, Rascal completes a slight overhaul of his roster this week. Gone are Jordan Howard, Marlon Mack and Sammy Watkins, and in comes Jaylen Samuels, Jarvis Landry and Calvin Ridley. Samuels starts in place of the injured James Conner, while Landry takes the flex spot from Joe Mixon, who faces a tough matchup against Rascal's own defense, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rascal does also make a difficult decision, returning Aaron Rodgers to start over Jimmy Garoppolo, who was great last week. Considering the two men will face each other on Sunday night, Rascal does still have time to reconsider that decision if he so wishes. UPDATE: Rascal will turn to Calvin Ridley for the ...

Rare Woofs looks for another miracle while Emma duels with Bark Force in Week 11 of the Dog League. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Game 1: Tug of War vs Tailwaggerz After a season of inconsistent play, Tailwaggerz had a great chance to rebound from a tough loss to Rare Woofs, take down the red hot Tug of War and keep their chance at one of the top two spots alive. All of that sounds great on paper, but Deshaun Watson(3.96 points). Their star quarterback's worst game of the year set the tone for a really tough day for Tailwaggerz, with the high being the spot start of Michael Gallup(23.8 points) and a return to form for Alvin Kamara(22.2 points), and the low being the performances of Watson and the Panthers defense(2 points). Cap that off with an early injury to Tyreek Hill(0 points), and Tailwaggerz never really had a chance. Tug of War got another easy win thanks to Dak Prescott(31.56 points), Michael Thomas(25.4 points) and ...

With just four weeks left in the year, we do have one more trade taking place in the league, as Rascal gives up tight end Mark Andrews to acquire Courtland Sutton from Rare Woofs. More information will be given below. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Ridiculous Rascals Current Record: (3-7, 6th place) With Darren Waller firmly entrenched as the starter, Rascal sells high on Andrews, who is coming off of a two touchdown game. He gets back Sutton, who has been extremely reliable this year, but will have to adjust to a new quarterback under center. Sutton immediately gets a start as Golden Tate is on bye while James Conner is healthy and returns to the starting lineup. With Conner back, Rascal dropped Matt Breida to pick up Joe Mixon, who starts over Marlon Mack as he prepares to face the Raiders. He also dropped Jaylen Samuels to bring back Marquise Brown. Jimmy Garoppolo replaces Aaron Rodgers as Rodgers is on bye, while Rascal hop...

Rare Woofs and Tailwaggerz renew hostilities in the league's premier rivalry, resulting in another absolute classic showdown. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Game 1: Tug of War vs Bark Force Tug of War have caught fire as of late, and were once again all over it from the very start, with Derrick Henry(33.1 points), Michael Thomas(28.2 points) and the Ravens defense(24 points) putting Bark Force in immediate trouble. Fortunately for them, the returning Patrick Mahomes(29.84 points) was magnificent, and Aaron Jones(27.3 points) bounced back in a big way to open the possibility of a late comeback. But the normally steady receivers failed Bark Force, as Stefon Diggs(7.9 points) couldn't get much going and Tyler Lockett(5.9 points) was stifled by the 49ers and picked up an injury along the way. Despite the poor performances of the two Rams starters, Cooper Kupp(0 points) and Greg Zuerlein(3 points), Tug of War won their second g...

Tailwaggerz looks to get a winning streak going as they face off with Tailwaggerz in one of the league's premier rivalries. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Ridiculous Rascals Current Record: (3-6, 6th place) It's been a tough month for Rascal, who has dealt with tons of different injuries and inconsistent performances that have seen him finally hit rock bottom. It's not getting any easier this week, with Adam Thielen likely out on Sunday and James Conner's status currently murky. Rascal will list Conner as a starter, but dropped Sony Michel to bring back Matt Breida as a backup for Conner if necessary. He does get back Julio Jones this week, who sends the banged up Thielen to the bench, and Golden Tate replaces John Brown in the starting lineup, as he has a cushy matchup with the Jets this week. Rascal gets a new starting defense, bringing in the Saints as the Steelers face the high powered Rams offense, and finds...

Leaping Girl gets her chance to finally gain the upper hand in her over two month long quest to catch Rare Woofs, though she may have a new target in that black cat. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com) Game 1: Tug of War vs Ridiculous Rascals This game was over from the word "go", as Adam Thielen(0 points) went out early for Rascal, while Zach Ertz(25.3 points) and Derrick Henry(24.9 points) took turns pummeling Rascal into the dirt. Tug of War's reliance on Chicago did put them in some danger, as spot starter Allen Robinson(1.6 points) and the Bears defense(4 points) were both horrible, but it wasn't enough to make this game in any way competitive. Dak Prescott(21.48 points) struck the death blow on Monday night, as Tug of War wins their second game out of the last three and sends Ridiculous Rascals plummeting to the basement of the league. Final Score: Tug of War(123.88) - Ridiculous Rascals(84.84) Game 2: ...
