Fantasy Football: Ollie says weather could place hot players on ice as playoffs approach

(WGNO) — Hey ya’ll! Hope everyone made the fantasy playoffs.

If you didn’t, better luck next year, and in the meantime, please stay off the waiver wire


If you did, we have a few simple tips to keep in mind moving forward.

First, don’t be afraid to pick up a second defense. All of the teams are good when you get in the playoffs. Working matchups might be the slight edge you need.

Secondly, don’t be too cute. In other words, play the players who got you to the postseason. Let the other fantasy leaguers overthink their rosters.

And finally, keep a watchful eye on the weather. For example, great players in a blizzard are going to be worse than good players in the sun.

Anyway, this is a wrap for 2022.

Always appreciate you stopping by.

Good luck for the remainder of your season and please remember to always tip your bartender!
