Here's the Update on Any FFPC Questions You Might Have

We know you've been asking, so here's the latest we have on the Titans/Steelers game this week directly from the NFL:


As a reminder, per FFPC rules:
  • If the game is played on Monday or Tuesday, it counts for Week 4 stats.
  • If the game is moved to another week, the game counts for THAT week's stats, which still does have a chance of happening.
  • PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS POSSIBILITY WHEN MAKING WAIVER BIDS THIS WEEK.

Congrats to Geller for having three top teams overall in the top-25 after three weeks as well.
