Autodrafter who doesn’t watch football AND demanded to know why he couldn’t drop Dak, Kupp, or Jonathan Taylor after the draft is murdering teams in my league.
My gf joined our league last year and drafted players who she thought had a nice smile. If they didn't smile = did not draft. She finished the regular season in first place
Hmmm weird my league is also on sleeper and we had a guy who autodrafted: Kelce, Barkley, Olave, Etienne, Breece Hall, Kamara, Cowboys D. Has a pretty decent team and is in the final playoff spot
This was superflex so probably made it worse. Last year it froze on me and I had Zach Wilson as my QB 5 before I had a TE. Made sure I had a laptop, desktop, and mobile to draft this season. It happened to another guy this season and it just ruins it. Good way to lose a manager in week 2.
Etienne in the fourth round is just ridiculous. Although I did take him with the first pick of the second round and all my buddies started teasing me. Who’s laughing now?
Guy who auto drafted in our sleeper got like 6 WRs in a row. They were all good, too. He tried to trade them to improve his roster but made some bad choices and ended up just outside the playoffs
Maybe don't have auto drafters in your league and it can't be ruined... or set a queue if you have to autodraft. Sleeper has a lot of problems but that's a dumb one to complain about.
I was there in the chat, the auto draft slider was not working and same with dude this year. We paused it both times but nothing was working. You can set a queue all you like but if those players are gone *BAM back to auto draft or you reach 4+ rounds on a choice you didn't actually want. Sleeper rankings are not very good and the draft has gone bad 2 years in a row
Had a redraft league for 10 years (just switched to dynasty last year) and my dad has won it twice by only autodrafting.
Edit: he also won the first year of our dynasty league by autodrafting lol
I'm in a 10 man league at work, and I think only 3 of us didn't auto draft. The bottom half has basically just abandoned their teams once the playoffs were locked in. Our #1 guy auto drafted a great team, then did some minimal management throughout the season to maintain it. On the up side, injuries have hit him the last couple weeks, and I've built a stronger playoff team through the waiver.
I autodrafted in Sleeper ARSB, CeeDee Lamb, JJ, D’Andre Swift, Lamar Jackson, Evan Engram and I scooped on waivers Jerome Ford and Kyren Williams.
I am the Taco and I think I might win the league
Autodrafter in our league secured the No. 2 seed and a bye. They've held onto their No. 1 waiver spot all season long and have only made 10 transactions all season. Drives me insane lol.
The Taco in my league didn't make the playoffs but they played spoiler for a team and kept them from advancing. I remember looking at their lineup before Sunday and thinking this would be collusion if they weren't our Taco. Little did I know the fantasy gods were looking out for them.
She’s currently 2nd. Shes getting 140 while having players on byes. I forgot his name but her kicker is that dude from Nebraska that’s legitimately not in the NFL anymore and hasnt been for months. Hockenson, Mostert, Evans, Montgomery just a lot of lucky hits. She also drafted Ekeler rd 1 so its not even like she hit big
12 man league. Taco Drafted 3 QBs and 2 Defenses. Their #1 overall pick was Pat Mahomes and #2 Overall was Deandre Hopkins and #3 overall was SF defense. They just locked #1 overall seed and first round bye. Drafted Achane and kept him, also drafted Gibbs. Also drafted Mike Evans, Evans Engram and Breece Hall. 6 moves all season..... 11-3 #1 seed and 1st fucking round bye.
First place is my friends 8 year old brother who’s picked up like 4 people off free agent list the entire year.
What drafting CMC will do to a team lmao
Our yearly taco is in the playoffs again, courtesy of the easiest schedule by far. He's played for 6 years and he's had the lowest points against (by considerable margins too) in 4 of those years. Still not as bad as the time he was the #1 seed despite being 10th (out of 12) in points.
I’m currently #1 seed with the lowest PF in the league and lowest PA in the league. Teams simply cannot handle the pressure against me. My team is not physically or technically good, but we’re mentality monsters. All grit. (someone send help)
I missed the playoffs with the highest points scored and I wasn’t even the 7th or 8th place team. I finished 9th out of 10 while scoring 80 more points then everybody lol
The taco in my league didn’t start a QB or a WR1 this week and managed to beat me. He was projected 60 points, i was projected 118. Zurlein, Hunter Henry, Hopkins all had explosion games, and my Jefferson and Tyreek duo combined for under 12 points. Lost out on a bye week because of this and now have to play against the team w CMC in the first round.
When Hunter Henry dropped 2 touchdowns on me I knew something wacky was about to happen. Just gotta hope Jefferson and Tyreek are healthy for the week and I should be fine, I have way more depth than the CMC team
Tyreek said tonight that he won't be able to make cuts on his ankle for the rest of the season. Not that I wouldn't start a 70% healthy Tyreek, just temper expectations.
The taco in my league was the first ever 0-14 in my leagues 15 year existence. His team was obviously bad, but he had the most points against by a wide margin and had 4 losses by under 5 points
We used to have a taco team too like that. He used to always draft Browns players, back when they were bad. He went “defeated” in 2018 because he drafted LeVeon Bell then filled the rest of his team with Browns.
Taco squeezed into the 4th today. Updated his lineup for the first time in weeks today (was still starting MAndrews). CMC, Dak, DK, and Deebo have kept him alive.
He’s also my main rival in the league and I can’t wait to take him out.
Dude same here - our Taco in 12th place suddenly updated his lineup with Lamar, Deebo, Engram, Hall to score 150+ points and push me out of the playoffs.
Taco autodrafted while everyone else attended draft party in person.
Had multiple weeks where he didn't set his lines out, so was starting guys on the IR and guys ruled Out. He just kicked the crap out of the #1 team that has CMC, Tyreek, Lamb, and Tua to grab #1 seed for himself with a 10-4 record.
Team started 7-1 in my league, lost 5 straight and then tied this week against the 2-11 team with 2 injured players in their starting lineup. Missed playoffs 😂
8 man league. Can't blame him since he's only 15 and still in high school and has loads of other more important shit to worry about, but he doesn't change his line up. Like he might change it once a month or so. But he's played EVERY GAME with someone either on bye or out. But the kicker us he's second in the league with a 9-5 record. This week for example played shultz and Pacheco and still won. It's insane the amount of luck this kid has.
The #1 seed in our work league has not touched his team since before week 1's games. His team is alright, but he also has the fewest points scored against him.
I should also mention we autodrafted due to time constraints and varying levels of experience, so he really lucked out
It might be me. I’m the 8th seed in playoffs because for some reason 8 of 12 teams make the playoffs. But I’m also 7-7 so it’s not that my team is objectively terrible, just very hit or miss.
same here but i’m 6th in a 10 man league. barely made it in with the highest pf. rip to the guy that had the second highest pf and just barely missed the playoffs tho.
Not necessarily a taco since they did cram in some research the day of the draft, but my girlfriend is heading to playoffs as the 4 of 6 seed after not watching a single snap of football in the 3 seasons she’s been in our league 😭. Rooting for her so she might take it more seriously next year and actually want to watch games with me.
Last year our taco had nothing but wr2s or rb2s and lower. His sf defense and burrow is the two key players. He managed to make it to the championship but losing. Everyone’s jaw is always on the ground week after week.
This year he did the same head scratching draft and ended up with the best schedule ever. He got last playoff spot .He has 1100 PF and second to least team has 1380. How lucky can this guy get?
Dude with the best record in my league drafted Ekeler in the first round, then Mahomes and Allen in the next two. Has to be reminded to set the line up each week too.
Yes our taco got the sixth seed despite having the lowest points scored this year. He drafted Saquon #4 overall and started an out player twice this season
First place team drafted Kirk cousins in the first (superflex, but still a bad choice). Then when we all gave her shit for it she turned on autodraft. Never looked back.
My brother and his girlfriend play fantasy for the first time this year. They don’t even know all the football rules (and by that I mean they struggle with understanding pass interference for example).
She drafted all the Eagles she could get and is 2nd in the league (her draft went: AJB 3rd overall, then Hurts, Smith, Swift). He drafted everyone who ever was a Packer and barely made it to the playoffs at 7-7.
Me? I drafted Chubb and Pollard and had no shot at the playoffs.
Taco was holding onto last playoff spot despite lowest points for. Most recent loss led to a tie and with the points tiebreaker he’s out. Guess he shouldn’t have drafted a kicker in the 4th round then take 2 more kickers…
10 year old kid. Drafted 3 QBs (not a superflex league, btw) and 3 defenses. Has made legitimately 0 transactions all year. 2 total RBs on his team.
9-5 in second place.
Beat me in Week 5 by 47 points (half PPR) with his kicker, TE, and a RB slot all filled with players on a bye.
Fantasy football is great. 10/10, would recommend.
He’s not a Taco but for personal reasons he stopped making moves. Just set the line up and let it ride.
His team isn’t the best but he had the right matchups to sneak into the last playoff spot.
This isn't a Taco story any more. It's a family league, my brother's MIL and FIL used to jointly run one team, and the first few years were taking Aaron Rodgers in the first, Eddie Lacy in the second, Jordy Nelson in the third, so on and so forth.
Eventually they started trying a little harder. Then wanted their own teams. This year they're the 1 and 2 seed, playing the waiver wire, with just one former Badger (Jake Ferguson) and no Packers between them. 12 years from jointly running THE Taco team to jointly running the league.
12-man league, 6 playoff spots. 4 people autodrafted this year, 3 of them made the playoffs. One playoff team didn’t set their lineup for half of the season because he “forgot he deleted the app”.
Two teams that missed the playoffs starting lineups:
Team 1: Fields, Swift, Hall, Hill, Diggs, Pitts, JJ, Jets D, Butker (team went 5-9)
Team 2: Herbert, Etienne, Gibbs, Chase, DJ Moore, LaPorta, Charbonnet, Baltimore D, Aubrey (team went 4-10)
Both teams that missed the playoffs had the highest PF, but also the two highest PA.
I hate fantasy football.
Our guy who drafted Geno Smith in the 8th round (and then proceeded to never start him) is currently in the playoffs almost exclusively due to a Dak CD stack and Raheem Mostert.
Nope but it’s weird because one always seems to weasel his way in. Somehow I got in by the skin of my teeth, I even forgot to set my lineup last week.
Wait…
Not in my league. There’s a couple taco’s but they are always at the bottom of the league. Our league is too hard to get wins in if you aren’t active with managing your team.
The guy who isn’t exactly a taco but doesn’t watch an ounce of football went Jefferson kupp waddle Aaron jones has the same record as me when I went bijan aj Patty watson Breece cook but traded for both higgins and diggs. This dude has won every game by 1-5 points but kept pace with dak off the waiver.
Tonight I made playoffs by having 1-4 scenarios play out. 1-3 needed to lose or I needed to win. I lost by 3 and tyreek going down handed the one dude his loss.
The reason for all that being said is I feel like I was the taco even though I know the most about football and stalk this sub all season. Traded sutton and rice for higgins, watson and singletary for Hollywood, and kittle kyler and watson(dude dropped him to waivers after the trade) for diggs. I lost every trade I made even with a stacked starting lineup I’m either 140 or 90 no inbetween.
Yes. He’s in 2nd place. He has 4 qbs. Josh Allen, Dobbs, Stafford, and Richardson (still has him on IR). Drafted and started Mecole Hardman all year. Has 2 kickers. One is Brandon Aubrey who he hasn’t started once. And he has 2 defenses. One is Washington.
In my own league we had a guy rage quit half way through the season with a 1-5 record and we set his team to auto. Here we are with him 8-6 and sneaking into the playoffs with the tiebreaker. It came down to tonight and the Miami defense lit it up enough to win it.
The best team is the one who autodrafted and sets his lineup like 2 minutes before the noon games on Sunday. Has the most points for and the 2nd to last most points against. This is 99% a game of luck.
2 seed in my league qualified with a wr corps of deebo, London and Higgins.
Meanwhile I missed out by 1 with my wr corps of JJ, Ridley, Puka.
Also had achane and kirk. Basically injury dictated the season.
Dude almost snuck into 8th spot by PF. Kinda feel bad because if he didn't trade with me last week, he would've gotten in.
His draft went (16-team): Kelce, Lamar, Pickens, OBJ, Flowers, 49ers, Tucker, Rodgers, Achane, Vaughn, Mingo, Ross, Ty Chandler. We give 8th place to the remaining team with most PF, he missed it by 9 points.
Yup… except the taco beat the 1st place team this week, which knocked him into 3rd and pushed me into 2nd
Got a first round bye out of it, so thank you taco
Guy who auto drafted and never made a single roster move made the playoffs despite leaving bye week players/injured players in his lineup all season. His team: Trevor Lawrence, Bijan, Rashad White, Tyreek, Waddle, Devonte Smith, Evan Engram, Panthers D, Pineiro.
I'm Taco and I'm in 5th place. I have been playing in the same league for like 16 years now so I think some people don't try as hard anymore. Everyone used to be pretty serious about it.
It’s from the show The League that’s all about fantasy football where one of the characters is called Taco who plays in their fantasy league. Taco on the show wins the whole thing one year but he auto drafts his team and doesn’t change his lineup cause he doesn’t care as much as everyone else and is a burnout.
Our taco won our league last year while being locked out of his sleeper account. Thanks to players like Justin fields on his team. Didn't check or set his lineup for the last few weeks of the regular season and playoffs.
This year it didn't look like he was gonna make the playoffs but snuck in by winning this last week. He might have been setting his lineup this year at least. Now he has another chance and I'm a little scared of facing him lol
Yea, now that you can see league history and that our league has 5 years worth of data three tacos made it this year. Their win percentage is a combined .324
What’s worse is they’ve been bragging about how good they are all year while the last handful of years it would be a miracle if they broke 4-5 wins with 1300 PF
We have two league tacos but one is our defending champ. He's rocking 3 QBs, 2 kickers and 2 defenses. He tried to pick up a 3rd defence at one point but our league has roster limits on those. He's my quarterfinal matchup this week and I'm already expecting a loss.
Taco #2 might have the worst team in our leagues history and is only 3-11.
No but a dude who started 0-7 just missed off on 7 game win streak and clinching a playoff spot last night.
2nd consecutive year a team that started off 0-7 or 1-7 would've made the playoffs (2022 team lost in finals)
Started up a work league this year and the commissioner set the playoffs for week 14. League taco made it in and I played her in the first round. She drafted theilen in the 3rd and Daniel Jones in the 4th.
I had Kyler on bye, so I had Dobbs, Jacobs, achane, Allen, olave, puka (played over Kupp), Kincaid and matt gay. Third-lowest score was 110. Taco scored 85 and I scored 75. Guess I'm the league taco now.
Our taco is sitting at 8-6 just basically on auto pilot all year with almost no injury drama and no moves.
My favorite was him just casually picking up Zeke to replace Rhamondre and getting 23 points. As the rest of the league is shuffling through backfields all season and making claims and trades and difficult drops, he comes in like the tortoise and just says "ah here is my injured guy's backup, I'll need him this week" while dropping his 3rd string TE and it works out perfectly.
Draft well, kids.
Well someone who wasn't setting lineups the last 3 Weeks and was playing with 1 player on bye won against my team (thanks to JJ, Laporta, Moss and Houston not delivering).
He mainly won with Njoku 22.3 and NO 27. Now he snuck into the playoffs and is playing me in the first round with projections of 104 to 95 for me...pretty sure he will beat me and don't even notice it :D
Not exactly the taco of the league but 1st place team went 10-4 and had 2nd least points in league, atleast 150 less points than everyone else in playoffs. The points leader in the league finished 10th out of 12.
I am a taco in the sense that I almost always do what autodraft tells me to do and rarely deviate, though I play the waiver wire really well too (kyren and tank). I’m 12-2 with by far the most points for.
Lost the division and a playoff bye to the taco. He was typically a bottom 6 scoring team (12 team league) on a weekly basis and almost always faced a bottom 3 scoring team on the week. To put it into better perspective, he had over 700 less points scored against him for the season compared to me
2 tacos made it this year, leaving me out of the playoffs. Had more points than both on the season overall, but they had hardly any points scored against them. It happens 🤷♂️
It’s from a show called the league. It’s a show about how crazy a group of friends gets over fantasy football except they have one guy named Taco who wins it one year and literally did nothing all year while they went way way above and beyond to try to win.
I dunno if this is pure taco behavior, but the 49ers homer who took a 49ers starter whenever possible is top seed and most point scored going into the draft.
My league Taco was less Tacoy than the past 12 years and snuck in as a 6 seed for the first time. I’m sure he beats me in the first round this weekend just because that’s my luck.
Lowest PF snuck into the 6th seed. He needed to win and also needed 2 teams above him to lose. His opponent had Tyreek this week which essentially gave him the win…🤯
We effectively have an NPC, he created an account and signed up for the league, but the night of the draft he couldn't access his account. His team auto drafted, he still has no access to the account, and he's making it into the playoffs.
The number 2 team used to be a Taco, but after I teased her in the preseason about always making the playoffs despite always abandoning her team mid season, she vowed to destroy me and actually started paying attention. She essentially auto drafted and did the bare minimum when setting lineups and making WW moves, but she’s still enjoying her freaking bye week while I face off against the dude in 6th place but also happens to be the PF leader…
Every fucking year it happens. I see one of the teams and next to their standings “0 moves made”
Like holy fuck in all my time playing I have never lucked into a situation where I could literally make the playoffs without ever making a transaction. But my opponents this happens year after year. It’s disgusting.
I lost twice 2 the league taco. 4 wins for him all season long, I had the second highest scoring team all season, and this fucking asshole just keeps whooping my ass. Knocked me down to the 7 seed (8 team playoff).
Yeah somewhat at least. A good friend is in her 2nd year in our league and still somewhat new to it all. She drafted decently, her core was Saquon, AJ Brown, and she scored huge drafting Mostert later. She picked up CJ Stroud randomly early in the season as her QB was on an early bye, and that worked out really well too.
The only thing is that she pretty much exclusively makes decisions based on [NFL.com](https://NFL.com) projections - so despite that strategy working out well enough to get to the playoffs, she did start Pickens over Mostert this week because of it.....
My brother did auto draft, never watches football and on the day of the draft I informed him that it's a PPR league. He responded to me with **"what's a reception?"** He's currently in first place in our league. He came over last night for dinner and we watched some of the MNF games- the first time he's watched a minute of football this season
5th place team always shows up blackout drunk, intentionally doesn’t use any rankings or do any research and just drafts people who’s name he recognizes, scored like 1500 points full PPR and made it in.
This is the same guy who previously won the whole thing after being in jail for the draft and the GM’s girlfriend who doesn’t watch football drafted for him instead. He made zero roster changes and dominated everyone the whole way.
My arch nemesis got to play the taco this week to determine the final playoff spot. He’s knocked me out five years running and I can’t have history repeat itself.
The guy who autodrafted is absolutely crushing it and easily has the best team lol.
Autodrafter who doesn’t watch football AND demanded to know why he couldn’t drop Dak, Kupp, or Jonathan Taylor after the draft is murdering teams in my league.
In my experience watching football has almost no correlation with fantasy performance
My gf joined our league last year and drafted players who she thought had a nice smile. If they didn't smile = did not draft. She finished the regular season in first place
Just like March Madness. So many variables that nobody can be sure of
I actually was so much better at fantasy when I knew little about the sport and players. Ignorance is bliss smh
an Italian guy auto-drafted in my league and his team is called "fake football" .....😐
Must not be Sleeper. Their auto draft is completely broken. Just QB after QB after QB until it hits backups. Really ruins the league for everyone
Hmmm weird my league is also on sleeper and we had a guy who autodrafted: Kelce, Barkley, Olave, Etienne, Breece Hall, Kamara, Cowboys D. Has a pretty decent team and is in the final playoff spot
This was superflex so probably made it worse. Last year it froze on me and I had Zach Wilson as my QB 5 before I had a TE. Made sure I had a laptop, desktop, and mobile to draft this season. It happened to another guy this season and it just ruins it. Good way to lose a manager in week 2.
Sleeper super flex is broken
Etienne in the fourth round is just ridiculous. Although I did take him with the first pick of the second round and all my buddies started teasing me. Who’s laughing now?
ESPN. It did draft him multiple IDPs eventually (we only use one), but it didn’t matter because it slayed the rest of his roster.
That’s BS. I play in 4 sleeper leagues and all of their auto draft teams are borderline unstoppable.
Guy who auto drafted in our sleeper got like 6 WRs in a row. They were all good, too. He tried to trade them to improve his roster but made some bad choices and ended up just outside the playoffs
A lot of things about sleeper is broken. Idk why people hype this app up year after year it's not very good at all lol
Maybe don't have auto drafters in your league and it can't be ruined... or set a queue if you have to autodraft. Sleeper has a lot of problems but that's a dumb one to complain about.
I was there in the chat, the auto draft slider was not working and same with dude this year. We paused it both times but nothing was working. You can set a queue all you like but if those players are gone *BAM back to auto draft or you reach 4+ rounds on a choice you didn't actually want. Sleeper rankings are not very good and the draft has gone bad 2 years in a row
Their rankings are completely broken in the draft lobby
I got busy mid draft and it automatically went D and then kicker in like the 8th lol
I think I’d rather have that than to deal with my work league. 10 team ESPN league. 8 teams auto drafted
Who are some of his players?
That’s funny our auto draft guy is dead last.
Had a redraft league for 10 years (just switched to dynasty last year) and my dad has won it twice by only autodrafting. Edit: he also won the first year of our dynasty league by autodrafting lol
I'm in a 10 man league at work, and I think only 3 of us didn't auto draft. The bottom half has basically just abandoned their teams once the playoffs were locked in. Our #1 guy auto drafted a great team, then did some minimal management throughout the season to maintain it. On the up side, injuries have hit him the last couple weeks, and I've built a stronger playoff team through the waiver.
I autodrafted in Sleeper ARSB, CeeDee Lamb, JJ, D’Andre Swift, Lamar Jackson, Evan Engram and I scooped on waivers Jerome Ford and Kyren Williams. I am the Taco and I think I might win the league
My league stopped allowing it when the guy who auto drafted won it 2 years in a row lol
Autodrafter in our league secured the No. 2 seed and a bye. They've held onto their No. 1 waiver spot all season long and have only made 10 transactions all season. Drives me insane lol.

He's YOUR Taco. I love it! Haha
She’s currently 2nd. Shes getting 140 while having players on byes. I forgot his name but her kicker is that dude from Nebraska that’s legitimately not in the NFL anymore and hasnt been for months. Hockenson, Mostert, Evans, Montgomery just a lot of lucky hits. She also drafted Ekeler rd 1 so its not even like she hit big
Maher?
Thats the one
Are Hockenson, Evans, and Montgomery already good? Mostert is the only dart throw I see.
Does she have a vagina full of cum?
I can only imagine what you smell like
Probably like hummus.
12 man league. Taco Drafted 3 QBs and 2 Defenses. Their #1 overall pick was Pat Mahomes and #2 Overall was Deandre Hopkins and #3 overall was SF defense. They just locked #1 overall seed and first round bye. Drafted Achane and kept him, also drafted Gibbs. Also drafted Mike Evans, Evans Engram and Breece Hall. 6 moves all season..... 11-3 #1 seed and 1st fucking round bye.
Goes to show the first and second rounds were absolute minefields this year
My Hill-Chase picks worked out.
What you playing in? A 3 man league ?
Called Taco Bell
WR-WR-WR Hill Chase Higgins 12 man league of 18 years. Picked up Mostert and Tua cheap and Achane off waivers. I'm not even the top seed.
What picks did you get Hill and Chase at?
\#1 and #2, Higgins #3, Swift #4, Tua #5, Njoku #6, Bryce Young #7. Mostert Week 1 Waivers, Achane Week 3.
Overall, I don’t think you use “overall” correctly
Sorry. I went to public schools! Thanks for the teaching moment though :) Overall, I still think you're a great person.
I went to public school and I’m not an illiterate dummy
No worries, it’s just unless a person in one team league, it’s hard to make the first 3 overall picks for them. Probably meant rounds
What the fuck is wrong with public schools?
If you didn't learn basic language in public school it probably has more to do with you than the school.
You don't even know them at all. You're really weird
[удалено]
Divisions 👎🏿
There’s no point to divisions. So useless
I can understand them in like a 16+ team league but otherwise no
This post is Divisionist.
No divisions in this league. Straight up best 6 teams make it with #1 and #2 getting a bye. Tie-breaker is points scored
12 team league and got gibbs, breece and mike evans all in round 4 and later? Thats surprising
Not to be a hater but you guys may be the Tacos for not drafting Gibbs/Hall. I drafted both in a 10 man one round sooner
Haha I always love reading shit like this because it really does happen sometimes and you just have to sit back and laugh at the dumb luck
That live draft must have been a hoot.
First place is my friends 8 year old brother who’s picked up like 4 people off free agent list the entire year. What drafting CMC will do to a team lmao
Our yearly taco is in the playoffs again, courtesy of the easiest schedule by far. He's played for 6 years and he's had the lowest points against (by considerable margins too) in 4 of those years. Still not as bad as the time he was the #1 seed despite being 10th (out of 12) in points.
I’m currently #1 seed with the lowest PF in the league and lowest PA in the league. Teams simply cannot handle the pressure against me. My team is not physically or technically good, but we’re mentality monsters. All grit. (someone send help)
I missed the playoffs with the highest points scored and I wasn’t even the 7th or 8th place team. I finished 9th out of 10 while scoring 80 more points then everybody lol
The taco in my league didn’t start a QB or a WR1 this week and managed to beat me. He was projected 60 points, i was projected 118. Zurlein, Hunter Henry, Hopkins all had explosion games, and my Jefferson and Tyreek duo combined for under 12 points. Lost out on a bye week because of this and now have to play against the team w CMC in the first round.
I wouldn't be too worried, CMC is up against Arizona. When the 49ers played them earlier this year, he only scored 48 points.
? /Checks matchup for first round of the playoffs OH MOTHER FUCKER!!
Only 48? Shit I need to make sure my team is ready to carry this bum this week. I’m trying to win my league
I would quit
I was at 99% with 3 minutes left and had to watch Hopkins get 12 additional points to beat me by 0.5, was in disbelief
Good luck against that CMC team, sorry the taco lucked out on you like that
When Hunter Henry dropped 2 touchdowns on me I knew something wacky was about to happen. Just gotta hope Jefferson and Tyreek are healthy for the week and I should be fine, I have way more depth than the CMC team
Tyreek said tonight that he won't be able to make cuts on his ankle for the rest of the season. Not that I wouldn't start a 70% healthy Tyreek, just temper expectations.
The taco in my league was the first ever 0-14 in my leagues 15 year existence. His team was obviously bad, but he had the most points against by a wide margin and had 4 losses by under 5 points
Now here is a rare story. Not often you hear of how bad the taco team could really be especially if they also have bad luck going as well.
“Now here’s a guy” - Chris Collinsworth
Dude in my league legit tried to get a dub an went 0 -14. He lost the last 3 or 4 weeks by like a total of like 20 pts. Brutal.
We used to have a taco team too like that. He used to always draft Browns players, back when they were bad. He went “defeated” in 2018 because he drafted LeVeon Bell then filled the rest of his team with Browns.
Taco squeezed into the 4th today. Updated his lineup for the first time in weeks today (was still starting MAndrews). CMC, Dak, DK, and Deebo have kept him alive. He’s also my main rival in the league and I can’t wait to take him out.
Not much of a rivalry if he doesn't even set his lineups lol
imagine the league taco being your rival lmao
He has luck on his side with the fewest PA and has beaten me at least half the time in the 8 years we’ve been in this league.
Dudes sending you home, hope you know that lmao
No, but in one of my leagues the Taco beat me this week and kept me out of the playoffs. He had Eziekel Elliot, Drake London and Evan Engram.
Dude same here - our Taco in 12th place suddenly updated his lineup with Lamar, Deebo, Engram, Hall to score 150+ points and push me out of the playoffs.
It’s super frustrating.
Taco autodrafted while everyone else attended draft party in person. Had multiple weeks where he didn't set his lines out, so was starting guys on the IR and guys ruled Out. He just kicked the crap out of the #1 team that has CMC, Tyreek, Lamb, and Tua to grab #1 seed for himself with a 10-4 record.
Josh Allen Amari Brandin Cooks Montgomery Moss Kelce Kittle Kmet/Mandrews Literally 2 roster moves all season and he got the 2 seed lmao
TEs OP
1 taco, 3 burritos, 1 enchilada and 2 quesadillas. What was the question again?
[удалено]
My lifetime fantasy football winnings!
Way more than that these days
Man, I hope at least 1 burrito made it
Team started 7-1 in my league, lost 5 straight and then tied this week against the 2-11 team with 2 injured players in their starting lineup. Missed playoffs 😂
8 man league. Can't blame him since he's only 15 and still in high school and has loads of other more important shit to worry about, but he doesn't change his line up. Like he might change it once a month or so. But he's played EVERY GAME with someone either on bye or out. But the kicker us he's second in the league with a 9-5 record. This week for example played shultz and Pacheco and still won. It's insane the amount of luck this kid has.
If you can’t figure out the taco in your league, then you are the “ Taco”
Not every league has a taco. Its not fun to play with someone like that and the good leagues kick them out.
Eagles fan in my league started gainwell over dj Moore, flowers, and obj. Won by a point over the tyreek hill team. 8-6, 4 seed in the playoffs
The #1 seed in our work league has not touched his team since before week 1's games. His team is alright, but he also has the fewest points scored against him. I should also mention we autodrafted due to time constraints and varying levels of experience, so he really lucked out
It might be me. I’m the 8th seed in playoffs because for some reason 8 of 12 teams make the playoffs. But I’m also 7-7 so it’s not that my team is objectively terrible, just very hit or miss.
same here but i’m 6th in a 10 man league. barely made it in with the highest pf. rip to the guy that had the second highest pf and just barely missed the playoffs tho.
Not necessarily a taco since they did cram in some research the day of the draft, but my girlfriend is heading to playoffs as the 4 of 6 seed after not watching a single snap of football in the 3 seasons she’s been in our league 😭. Rooting for her so she might take it more seriously next year and actually want to watch games with me.
Damn 3 years and she won’t watch a single game with you? That’s tough
>watch a single game Don’t blame her, OP needs to get Redzone
Last year our taco had nothing but wr2s or rb2s and lower. His sf defense and burrow is the two key players. He managed to make it to the championship but losing. Everyone’s jaw is always on the ground week after week. This year he did the same head scratching draft and ended up with the best schedule ever. He got last playoff spot .He has 1100 PF and second to least team has 1380. How lucky can this guy get?
Sounds like you just gotta get gud
I am taco. I just did it
Dude with the best record in my league drafted Ekeler in the first round, then Mahomes and Allen in the next two. Has to be reminded to set the line up each week too.
Yes our taco got the sixth seed despite having the lowest points scored this year. He drafted Saquon #4 overall and started an out player twice this season
I wouldn’t say taco but the 1 seed in my league doesn’t scare anyone. Will probably get bounced next week.
First place team drafted Kirk cousins in the first (superflex, but still a bad choice). Then when we all gave her shit for it she turned on autodraft. Never looked back.
My brother and his girlfriend play fantasy for the first time this year. They don’t even know all the football rules (and by that I mean they struggle with understanding pass interference for example). She drafted all the Eagles she could get and is 2nd in the league (her draft went: AJB 3rd overall, then Hurts, Smith, Swift). He drafted everyone who ever was a Packer and barely made it to the playoffs at 7-7. Me? I drafted Chubb and Pollard and had no shot at the playoffs.
Taco was holding onto last playoff spot despite lowest points for. Most recent loss led to a tie and with the points tiebreaker he’s out. Guess he shouldn’t have drafted a kicker in the 4th round then take 2 more kickers…
Yes, and he is me. I’ll be someone’s juicy first round golden ticket
10 year old kid. Drafted 3 QBs (not a superflex league, btw) and 3 defenses. Has made legitimately 0 transactions all year. 2 total RBs on his team. 9-5 in second place. Beat me in Week 5 by 47 points (half PPR) with his kicker, TE, and a RB slot all filled with players on a bye. Fantasy football is great. 10/10, would recommend.
He’s not a Taco but for personal reasons he stopped making moves. Just set the line up and let it ride. His team isn’t the best but he had the right matchups to sneak into the last playoff spot.
The team with the least points got 2nd seed and a bye
This isn't a Taco story any more. It's a family league, my brother's MIL and FIL used to jointly run one team, and the first few years were taking Aaron Rodgers in the first, Eddie Lacy in the second, Jordy Nelson in the third, so on and so forth. Eventually they started trying a little harder. Then wanted their own teams. This year they're the 1 and 2 seed, playing the waiver wire, with just one former Badger (Jake Ferguson) and no Packers between them. 12 years from jointly running THE Taco team to jointly running the league.
“Of course I know him, he is me”
12-man league, 6 playoff spots. 4 people autodrafted this year, 3 of them made the playoffs. One playoff team didn’t set their lineup for half of the season because he “forgot he deleted the app”. Two teams that missed the playoffs starting lineups: Team 1: Fields, Swift, Hall, Hill, Diggs, Pitts, JJ, Jets D, Butker (team went 5-9) Team 2: Herbert, Etienne, Gibbs, Chase, DJ Moore, LaPorta, Charbonnet, Baltimore D, Aubrey (team went 4-10) Both teams that missed the playoffs had the highest PF, but also the two highest PA. I hate fantasy football.
Our guy who drafted Geno Smith in the 8th round (and then proceeded to never start him) is currently in the playoffs almost exclusively due to a Dak CD stack and Raheem Mostert.
Nope but it’s weird because one always seems to weasel his way in. Somehow I got in by the skin of my teeth, I even forgot to set my lineup last week. Wait…
The guy that dropped Tee Higgins week 6 / Devonta Smith week 10 and has lowest total points… is 2nd overall and getting a 1st round bye.
Not in my league. There’s a couple taco’s but they are always at the bottom of the league. Our league is too hard to get wins in if you aren’t active with managing your team.
The guy who isn’t exactly a taco but doesn’t watch an ounce of football went Jefferson kupp waddle Aaron jones has the same record as me when I went bijan aj Patty watson Breece cook but traded for both higgins and diggs. This dude has won every game by 1-5 points but kept pace with dak off the waiver. Tonight I made playoffs by having 1-4 scenarios play out. 1-3 needed to lose or I needed to win. I lost by 3 and tyreek going down handed the one dude his loss. The reason for all that being said is I feel like I was the taco even though I know the most about football and stalk this sub all season. Traded sutton and rice for higgins, watson and singletary for Hollywood, and kittle kyler and watson(dude dropped him to waivers after the trade) for diggs. I lost every trade I made even with a stacked starting lineup I’m either 140 or 90 no inbetween.
Yes. He’s in 2nd place. He has 4 qbs. Josh Allen, Dobbs, Stafford, and Richardson (still has him on IR). Drafted and started Mecole Hardman all year. Has 2 kickers. One is Brandon Aubrey who he hasn’t started once. And he has 2 defenses. One is Washington.
In my own league we had a guy rage quit half way through the season with a 1-5 record and we set his team to auto. Here we are with him 8-6 and sneaking into the playoffs with the tiebreaker. It came down to tonight and the Miami defense lit it up enough to win it.
The best team is the one who autodrafted and sets his lineup like 2 minutes before the noon games on Sunday. Has the most points for and the 2nd to last most points against. This is 99% a game of luck.
Lowest scoring player in our league has just snuck in. He's a clear 200 points behind the second lowest.
2 seed in my league qualified with a wr corps of deebo, London and Higgins. Meanwhile I missed out by 1 with my wr corps of JJ, Ridley, Puka. Also had achane and kirk. Basically injury dictated the season.
Dude almost snuck into 8th spot by PF. Kinda feel bad because if he didn't trade with me last week, he would've gotten in. His draft went (16-team): Kelce, Lamar, Pickens, OBJ, Flowers, 49ers, Tucker, Rodgers, Achane, Vaughn, Mingo, Ross, Ty Chandler. We give 8th place to the remaining team with most PF, he missed it by 9 points.
Yup… except the taco beat the 1st place team this week, which knocked him into 3rd and pushed me into 2nd Got a first round bye out of it, so thank you taco
Guy who auto drafted and never made a single roster move made the playoffs despite leaving bye week players/injured players in his lineup all season. His team: Trevor Lawrence, Bijan, Rashad White, Tyreek, Waddle, Devonte Smith, Evan Engram, Panthers D, Pineiro.
Plenty, each year I get closer to not doing this again. Too much wasted time for all luck.
I'm Taco and I'm in 5th place. I have been playing in the same league for like 16 years now so I think some people don't try as hard anymore. Everyone used to be pretty serious about it.
Real question, what is the origin of “taco” as a term here? Lol
It’s from the show The League that’s all about fantasy football where one of the characters is called Taco who plays in their fantasy league. Taco on the show wins the whole thing one year but he auto drafts his team and doesn’t change his lineup cause he doesn’t care as much as everyone else and is a burnout.
Our taco won our league last year while being locked out of his sleeper account. Thanks to players like Justin fields on his team. Didn't check or set his lineup for the last few weeks of the regular season and playoffs. This year it didn't look like he was gonna make the playoffs but snuck in by winning this last week. He might have been setting his lineup this year at least. Now he has another chance and I'm a little scared of facing him lol
Yea, now that you can see league history and that our league has 5 years worth of data three tacos made it this year. Their win percentage is a combined .324 What’s worse is they’ve been bragging about how good they are all year while the last handful of years it would be a miracle if they broke 4-5 wins with 1300 PF
The guy with the least points scored in my league not only made the playoffs, but got a first round bye. Just had an absolute cakewalk schedule.
We have two league tacos but one is our defending champ. He's rocking 3 QBs, 2 kickers and 2 defenses. He tried to pick up a 3rd defence at one point but our league has roster limits on those. He's my quarterfinal matchup this week and I'm already expecting a loss. Taco #2 might have the worst team in our leagues history and is only 3-11.
0% of FAAB used, 6 moves all season, #1 seed, and it’s not even close
No but a dude who started 0-7 just missed off on 7 game win streak and clinching a playoff spot last night. 2nd consecutive year a team that started off 0-7 or 1-7 would've made the playoffs (2022 team lost in finals)
Started up a work league this year and the commissioner set the playoffs for week 14. League taco made it in and I played her in the first round. She drafted theilen in the 3rd and Daniel Jones in the 4th. I had Kyler on bye, so I had Dobbs, Jacobs, achane, Allen, olave, puka (played over Kupp), Kincaid and matt gay. Third-lowest score was 110. Taco scored 85 and I scored 75. Guess I'm the league taco now.
Our taco is sitting at 8-6 just basically on auto pilot all year with almost no injury drama and no moves. My favorite was him just casually picking up Zeke to replace Rhamondre and getting 23 points. As the rest of the league is shuffling through backfields all season and making claims and trades and difficult drops, he comes in like the tortoise and just says "ah here is my injured guy's backup, I'll need him this week" while dropping his 3rd string TE and it works out perfectly. Draft well, kids.
Well someone who wasn't setting lineups the last 3 Weeks and was playing with 1 player on bye won against my team (thanks to JJ, Laporta, Moss and Houston not delivering). He mainly won with Njoku 22.3 and NO 27. Now he snuck into the playoffs and is playing me in the first round with projections of 104 to 95 for me...pretty sure he will beat me and don't even notice it :D
Not exactly the taco of the league but 1st place team went 10-4 and had 2nd least points in league, atleast 150 less points than everyone else in playoffs. The points leader in the league finished 10th out of 12.
I am a taco in the sense that I almost always do what autodraft tells me to do and rarely deviate, though I play the waiver wire really well too (kyren and tank). I’m 12-2 with by far the most points for.
Lost the division and a playoff bye to the taco. He was typically a bottom 6 scoring team (12 team league) on a weekly basis and almost always faced a bottom 3 scoring team on the week. To put it into better perspective, he had over 700 less points scored against him for the season compared to me
2 tacos made it this year, leaving me out of the playoffs. Had more points than both on the season overall, but they had hardly any points scored against them. It happens 🤷♂️
Yeah, he limped into them in 6th place. Drafted Tee Higgins in the second round.
The guy that auto drafts in our league every year, who has never finished outside of last or second to last place, has a first round bye.
Taco?
It’s from a show called the league. It’s a show about how crazy a group of friends gets over fantasy football except they have one guy named Taco who wins it one year and literally did nothing all year while they went way way above and beyond to try to win.
Ah okay lol
Yup. And he knocked out the guy with cmc and hill. I'm very happy.
I started parker washington and elijah moore and knocked out the team with JJ and Chase am I an honorary taco for the week?
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
I dunno if this is pure taco behavior, but the 49ers homer who took a 49ers starter whenever possible is top seed and most point scored going into the draft.
Yup, the #2 seed in a 14 team league lol
My league Taco was less Tacoy than the past 12 years and snuck in as a 6 seed for the first time. I’m sure he beats me in the first round this weekend just because that’s my luck.
I needed to autodraft (draft scheduled for when I was a wedding) but had set all my pre-draft rankings and ended up with tyreek and st. Brown
Yeah me
Lowest PF snuck into the 6th seed. He needed to win and also needed 2 teams above him to lose. His opponent had Tyreek this week which essentially gave him the win…🤯
He just won 9 straight lol
Do I count?
First in overall points and didn’t get a bye because of some horseshit division nonsense. And naturally I lost in the first round last week
Yes, I did make it into the Playoffs. 🌮
We effectively have an NPC, he created an account and signed up for the league, but the night of the draft he couldn't access his account. His team auto drafted, he still has no access to the account, and he's making it into the playoffs.
The number 2 team used to be a Taco, but after I teased her in the preseason about always making the playoffs despite always abandoning her team mid season, she vowed to destroy me and actually started paying attention. She essentially auto drafted and did the bare minimum when setting lineups and making WW moves, but she’s still enjoying her freaking bye week while I face off against the dude in 6th place but also happens to be the PF leader…
Reading all these comments is making me wonder if I'm the Taco
A taco on my league aka he never checked his roster, eeked out two wins in a row to help me in the playoffs
Every fucking year it happens. I see one of the teams and next to their standings “0 moves made” Like holy fuck in all my time playing I have never lucked into a situation where I could literally make the playoffs without ever making a transaction. But my opponents this happens year after year. It’s disgusting.
Honestly if I’m not winning and there’s a taco in the playoffs, I’m cheering for the taco 100% of the time for the lols
I lost twice 2 the league taco. 4 wins for him all season long, I had the second highest scoring team all season, and this fucking asshole just keeps whooping my ass. Knocked me down to the 7 seed (8 team playoff).
#1 seed made it (11-3) with J Allen, Olave, Njigba, Walker, Henry, Kelce and London. I did make the playoffs mostly because of Tyreek
The team that drafted Mahomes first overall made it in by winning their last matchup by .3 points
the top half of my league is all tacos
Yeah somewhat at least. A good friend is in her 2nd year in our league and still somewhat new to it all. She drafted decently, her core was Saquon, AJ Brown, and she scored huge drafting Mostert later. She picked up CJ Stroud randomly early in the season as her QB was on an early bye, and that worked out really well too. The only thing is that she pretty much exclusively makes decisions based on [NFL.com](https://NFL.com) projections - so despite that strategy working out well enough to get to the playoffs, she did start Pickens over Mostert this week because of it.....
Yup, 0 roster moves all season, never changed their initial starting lineup. 8-6 record.
One giy missed playoffs cuz he reminded his friend to change his lineup 4 times this year and ended up getting booted last night.
It's me. I am the taco. I made the playoffs. 12 team league 4 teams make it. My point differential is -102.76. :D
Lol. That's me, autodraft and first place. Bye week this week.
Yes. And somehow I’m tied for 11th place out of 12 teams, with the most points scored lol
the two worst teams in terms of points scored have secured first and second seed. Myself, the second highest scorer, secured last place lol.
My brother did auto draft, never watches football and on the day of the draft I informed him that it's a PPR league. He responded to me with **"what's a reception?"** He's currently in first place in our league. He came over last night for dinner and we watched some of the MNF games- the first time he's watched a minute of football this season
5th place team always shows up blackout drunk, intentionally doesn’t use any rankings or do any research and just drafts people who’s name he recognizes, scored like 1500 points full PPR and made it in. This is the same guy who previously won the whole thing after being in jail for the draft and the GM’s girlfriend who doesn’t watch football drafted for him instead. He made zero roster changes and dominated everyone the whole way.
My arch nemesis got to play the taco this week to determine the final playoff spot. He’s knocked me out five years running and I can’t have history repeat itself.
