The Snoodler vs. Breesus Christ Superstars
Well last week, I figured Bryan had my number, but I was wrong. This week I figure again Bryan will have my number and I don't think I'll be wrong a second time. Unlike last week, Bryan's players get a smorgasbord of Oakland, Jacksonville, Detroit and the Giants. With opposition like that Bryan's should have a pretty strong showing. I get some crummy teams too - but just not as many of them - and with Gronk out, Brady's numbers will probably return back to earth. Bryan moves on.
The Lonesome Kicker vs. The North
If this was poker, I'd say Thursday night already tipped this hand. Considering Peyton had a good, but not great showing, I'd say Larry already has an uphill climb this weekend. Though Ian also sports some under-performing Denver players, I think both Foles and Luck are likely to garner a solid chunk of points. I'm no fan of Mendenhall, but he's no worse than an injured and inconsistent Tate. I like Wilson, but suspect the Seahawks will run a lot which really will only benefit Ian's defense. In the end, it will be close because neither team's going to put up it's normal production, but Peyton's only average performance will let Ian slip into the playoffs.
Ngata Chance vs. Gone in 30 Minutes
It took a while, but Linsday's team finally came around this year - unfortunately it's a couple weeks too late - and means he's competing in the wrong bracket. Ryan remained on the fringes, but just couldn't close the deal, so now he's get a shot at the number one pick too. But hey no regerts right? Two decent teams with some good matchups - Lacy should shoulder charge his way through a weak Dallas and Lynch will feast on the Giants. The receivers are about equal too - with maybe the exception that Cameron will likely roll with more points than Fleener. I'll give Romo the benefit of the doubt against a shaky Green Bay and say Ryan squeezes out a win.
The Downs Burns vs. Dirty D
In what could only be described as a spectacular meltdown, Wayne's team went from constant competitor to starving orphan sadly eying the wares from outside the candy store's windowpane. Well, can we expect the same result this week? I suspect the answer is yes since Dennis' team has been on a tear through these last few weeks. Plus, there's nothing to suggest (McCoy being the exception) that Wayne's painful-to-watch nose dive won't continue. Campbell is average at best and Nicks won't even see the ball against the Seahawks. Besides, Jeffrey and Gordon are just as likely to put up another 150 points this week. Toss in a suddenly hot Dalton and Tannehill and we've got a case of two teams in motion, both up and down, remaining in motion. Dennis takes it.
