The Juggernaut

We're a Head-to-Head league but only the coaches who play vs everyone every week will win The Juggernaut at The Sack Pack Awards. Four times in our 5 season league history, the highest season point earners in our league were unable to lay claim to the Championship (2016, 2017, 2018, & 2020). Starting in the upcoming season, the total highest point earner for the season will claim The Juggernaut award and $20 added to their season winnings. We acknowledge the unsung Juggernauts of Sack Packs past: 2016: Shannon (1,332.54) 2017: Kozuh (1,319.06) 2018: Shannon (1,410.28) 2020: Ropac (1,468.50) Cash awards are not retroactive.

Rivalry Week is Week 11

Feuds are fun and we'll be setting our best love-to-hate rivals against each other in Rivalry Week, Week 11. Start the trash talk early and get some bets brewing. SACK PACK RIVALS Harp vs Darin Eliot vs Brooke Mitch vs Ropac Jason vs Shannon Mike P vs Aaron Wooten vs Kozuh Six winning teams of Rivalry Week will bask in the glory and each get $5 added to their winnings at The Sack Pack Awards.

Weekly Winners

We're adding Weekly Winners to our 2021 season! Each week of our regular season will included a Weekly Winner goal that changes each week. The Commish will keep track of the info each week and the Weekly Winners for the season will receive $5 per weekly win to be paid at the Sack Pack Awards. There is potential to win $70 if one person manages to accumulate wins every single week, but the shifting goals make that unlikely. The Weekly Winner goals will be as follows for the 2021 season: Week 1: Highest total score for the week Week 2: Highest scoring flex (must be the W/R/T position) Week 3: Highest scoring losing team Week 4: Lowest scoring winning team Week 5: Win by the smallest margin Week 6: Highest scoring played QB Week 7: Lucky 7s! The team with the most 7s in their scores Week 8: Halftime Hero (team w/most accumulated points so far) Week 9: Highest scoring played Kicker. Week 10: Air bud: Played QB with the longest pass Week 11: Highest scoring played DEF Week 12: Highest s...

Sack Pack is FAAB for 2021!

We're going to be switching from the traditional waiver wire system to FAAB for the upcoming season. Article explaining FAAB vs waiver wire: https://www.si.com/nfl/2019/08/20/fantasy-football-league-settings-free-agent-bidding We've always used the rolling waiver wire. In this system, the strategy depends on players deciding when to use the waiver wire priority, often waiting for that big free agent if they get to No. 1 in the waiver order because making a claim sends them back to the bottom. This involves luck and doesn't always create a fair shot for everyone to add players. Everyone should get a chance to acquire every free agent. The best way to do this is to use Blind Bid Waivers, also known as FAAB. FAAB stands for Free Agent Acquisition Budget. Each team gets a budget of imaginary dollars to use for the season. Each week, you bid on the free agents. By a specific deadline, the highest bidding team for each free agent wins that player. If there is a tie on bids, the ...

It's a Record

The Sack Pack Record Book has been updated to hold more of our amazing accomplishments throughout our Sack Pack history. Sadly, some of our history is lost in time... or to be more accurate, lost in the NFL app since we switched from that to Yahoo for 2017. Some information from our 2015 & 2016 season were recorded in our awards and season areas, but other record information simply wasn't tracked during that time. At the time of this posting, the NFL app isn't live for the 2021 season so many of the options are still locked. The Commish will try again later in the year to see if our history can be accessed and our records can be made more complete. Space has been made in our Record Book to hold our 2021 season along with our future 2021 Champion.
