NFL since 1972 – Ken Anderson (QB, Bengals) in 1981.
MLB since 2005 – No, but Buster Posey might get it (already won Comeback, I believe?)
NHL since 1968 – Mario Lemieux won the Msterton and Hart in 1993.

/my gift to you, Lisk

Had a comeback player ever won MVP in any sport before in any major sport?

I think Buster Posey might do it this year in the NL…

Seriously? I would have no idea, as I don’t play fantasy, but I thought he just had that one good game and has been beyond terrible the rest.

Over 90 yards rushing 5 of the last 6 weeks, with three of those over 140 yards. Only like 45 yards total the first three weeks but since then has been pretty good.

Seriously? I would have no idea, as I don’t play fantasy, but I thought he just had that one good game and has been beyond terrible the rest.

The first three games he was awful in. He’s put up 90+ yards the past four weeks with 3 TDs. He’s averaging 5.0 YPC (skewed by his long runs). I’m 7-2 in my league and started him every week, it’s working out ok.

NFL says CAR should not have been awarded TD on inadvertent whistle play Sun at WSH. Should have had ball at 17 or option to replay down.

That was inexplicable. You can’t just pretend you didn’t blow the whistle, causing the defenders to hold up.

Chris Johnson has actually been ok

Seriously? I would have no idea, as I don’t play fantasy, but I thought he just had that one good game and has been beyond terrible the rest.

Props for not having Chris Johnson on that list. If you picked him up early, that’s a you problem, not a bust.

Chris Johnson has actually been ok, did he warrant being picked in the 8-12 range? Probably not.

However, the other players drafted in the 8 to 13 range (Murray, McFadden, Forte, MJD, AP), only two have been worth of their picks, the rest are injured or ineffective this year.

Biggest fantasy bust candidates:

A. McFadden
B. Mathews
C. Stafford
D. Murray

E. Cam Newton or Greg Jennings

Best FF late-round draft pick/waiver wire pickup:
A) Alfred Morris
B) Stevan Ridley
C) Randall Cobb
D) other

And a pasty Wisconsinite at that.

for 10 months of the year, there is no other kind.

This is an extreme example of the flaws in Passer Rating.

Actually I’d say it’s more of an effect of not playing the Patriots yet. When he goes all Chad Henne-Mark Sanchez on the Fighting Hoodies, he’ll shoot right up that list.

double counts completion percentage

Could you explain this… you mean because of the way YPA is impacted by completion %? What would it look like if you took yards per completion instead… would that fix the ‘problem’?
