… Steve Slaton tormented our fantasy playoffs last night.
… unless you were me - who rode his 45 yard touchdown run with 2:07 left in an-already-won football game to playoff victory.
Steve Slaton’s touchdown was reminiscent of both Chris Duhon’s infamous half-court shot to torment gamblers in the Final Four and Oklahoma’s 40 yard touchdown with less than a minute to go last week - trying for BCS Style Points.
For the game, Steve Slaton had:
- 30 fantasy points
- 21 rushes for 130 yards
- 2 receptions for 52 yards
- two touchdowns and 6″ from a third
The game made Slaton the 3rd highest scoring fantasy player of NFL Week 13, behind Brian Westbrook and DeAngelo Williams… shotputting him into the top 20 for all NFL Fantasy Football players.
Most importantly, it defeated Yardbarker’s Andrew Machado who had already prepped next week’s lineup and planned his taunts. He was leading by 26 going into the night and ended up losing on Slaton’s very last run. Great stuff.
Andrew Machado, in equally bad times, is shown here:
