This is pointless however. All we're fighting for is the privilege of getting trampled by Cows Grin

The only thing I'm fighting for is to save a shred of dignity and punish Hueristic for snagging Jordan Mason out from under my nose.

Moon Coiners: Win both games or win one game and  Eli-2 Brady-0 wins one or zero games.

I think there is a path for me to lose both games and remain in 4th place.

OTOH, it looks like Burrowhead and Brewers are still in it, if they win both games and the other teams lose all games except two (CeeDee win against Bowlers, and Bowlers win against me, which I think is the only way this can work due to scheduling). There would be 6 teams at 6-9.

But Brewers would need nearly 300 extra points on top of everything else.

Then there is the strength of schedule... I know I need the least amount of winning/scoring, but my remaining schedule sucks. Burrowhead has the easiest schedule IMO. CeeDee has the toughest.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
And congrats to Mo and  Chi for locking up a playoff spot, only one more left and its a battle thats gonna come down to the wire!
This is what all the teams on contention need to get that final spot, assuming the tiebreakers remain the same:

Bit Bowlers: Win both games, Eli-2 Brady-0 wins one or zero games, the Moon Coiners lose both games.
CeeDee’s: Win both games, Eli-2 Brady-0 wins one or zero games, the Moon Coiners lose both games.
Eli-2 Brady-0: Win both games and the Moon Coiners wins one or zero games, or win one game and the Moon Coiners lose both games.
Moon Coiners: Win both games or win one game and  Eli-2 Brady-0 wins one or zero games.

SMH, well once again I lose a key player for the rest of the season.  I've only been playing with you guys for a short amount of time, so when I tell you that I have the absolute worst luck when it comes to having players that stay healthy, I mean it lol.

So I draft CMC number one overall, he ends up giving me what, 4 lackluster weeks. smh.  Godwin, CMC, Rice..tough trio of players to lose.  Just hoping I can still hang in there.

It appears there will be 2 very important divisional games for week 14. This is the Packers vs. the Lions and my favorite team for 2024, this is the Chargers vs. the Chiefs! The oddsmakers are not taking very much risks on them because they are only +3.5 for the underdogs, the Chargers and the Packers.

However, I reckon that this might be an underestimation for the Chiefs if the oddsmakers are giving them on -3.5 against the spread. I speculate that this should be on -7.
Lions are getting banged up on defense so I think that game ends up being closer than many think. Last minute field goal and it could be by either team. Shootout type game.

I think the Chargers/Chiefs will be low scoring but I don't know who I would take. Hard to bet against the Chiefs.

Biggest surprises of the year
Vikings (4-0)
Texans (3-1)

On the Vikings, very much agreed. They are the biggest of all surprises of the year. However, this might not only be because I thought Sam Darnold is an improved quarterback. These other players who are protecting him and who give him time to throw his pass are much more important. I reckon if Tua played in this team he will certainly not be having a concussion and he would certainly be throwing long passes that will be successful to his receivers every game hehehe.

In any case, why is the Vikings only -2.5 against Aaron Rodgers and the Jets? This should be -6?

They’ve been a solid defense pick for me pretty much this entire season. I use to change up the defense every chance I got to favor the best odds each week but I’ve found that just sticking to a solid defense has been more favorable.

This defense of the Dolphins caused Jordan Love to very much appear to play very similar to Josh Allen hehehehe. Mike McDaniel's tactic of offense is a form of defense is certainly not anymore very successful against some teams.

Also, news update. Is America beginning to heal?



The Washington Commanders are no strangers to controversy. From the team’s historic rebrand to their efforts to move beyond the legacy of the "Redskins" name, the franchise has spent years navigating the tricky waters of cultural progress and tradition.

But just when it seemed the past was firmly in the rearview mirror, the Commanders are making headlines again—this time with the possibility of reviving the retired Redskins logo.

Its do or die for me, CeeDee‘s Nutz & Eli-2 Brady-0 this week. Only 2 of the 3 can emerge victorious & with hopes for a shot at the playoffs.

Interesting that Pacheco is coming back this week after sitting out most of the season with a fractured fibula. If he does play, I don't see him getting double-digit points, so I'll have to sideline him one more week in hopes I come up with the big W this week.

Congrats to South Park and ChiBitCTy for locking in early playoff spots.

@yahoo62278. Yes hehehehe, John and Jim will be annoying each other on their thanksgiving celebration. However agreed, it was a good game and the Chargers has maintained their chance of having the victory until a 3rd down in the 2nd half where a receiver did not catch the ball. It was Johnston, I reckon. After this incompletion, it was the game of the Ravens.

Does the Chargers have a chance to enter the post season? They are 7-4 and 2nd in AFC west and there is only 1 very dangerous game for them in their next games. This is against the Chiefs.
Chargers should make the playoffs with ease. I don't think anyone expected them to do as well as they are with Harbaugh taking over this year and having no big receivers. Everyone knew Herbert was a badass QB, but his weapons were in short supply. You gotta remember they were 5-12 last year so everyone in their building is loving what Jim has done with the team to this point. This year playoff bound and next year it wouldn't shock me if they were in the superbowl.

I very much wish to witness the Chargers on the playoffs every year with Jim Harbaugh, however, an AFC conference finals next season and a superbowl might be very early for them. I reckon if you check the Chargers' offensive team, everyone is under 30 years old. I speculate that the head coach has a roadmap of 4 years before going to the superbowl for this team. I also reckon that Jim Harbaugh might not trade for big receivers and they might also use their draft picks to get more young players.

Justin Herbert will be 30 or 31 years old on 2030, taking the Chargers to the superbowl and we might be speculating if he will be the MVP for that year hehehe.

*also to be fair I think just about every big player has had his career game against me this season, not making excuses just saying.

You weren't lying. Barkley with a career-high 302 scrimmage yards. He was one big run shy of breaking Adrian Peterson's single-game rush record. I forgot how many games Saquon has had with 100+ rush yards this year...he's crushing it.

The first, second, and third playoff spots appear to be set, with the fourth and final spot there up for the taking. There is one tiny change to Yahoo's current projections from last week. Moon Coiners are currently expected to lose their final three games and miss the playoffs. Whoever gets the final playoff spot will most likely face the Saquon Barkley + Derrick Henry death squad...ain't no fun in that.  Grin

We have been witnessing that the divisional games have been unpredictable for this season and it also appears that the sportsbooks have been overestimating the favorite and underestimating the underdogs hehehe. The Cowboys have won shockingly against the Commanders in their own stadium. I had a speculation that the Cowboys would win against the spread because -10.5 on the Commanders was an overestimation, however, losing the game was very much unexpected.

What is everyone's speculation or predictions for the Raven vs. the Charger? This might be a disappointment for the the fans in Baltimore, I reckon.
Brother vs brother. Jim Harbaugh is 0-2 vs his brother in the NFL and I think this time Jim gets the win. Chargers are pretty tough and have held every team except the Bengals under 20 points this season. I think they slow the game down and run it down the Ravens throats.

Baltimore has the Lamar run threat but I think the Chargers will be ready for it and contain him making him have to pass a lot and the Ravens don't win if Lamar is throwing more than 30 times in a game. That's gonna be a key to the Chargers victory.

Yes, John and Jim! I have forgotten about this hehehe. Also, is this 0-2 from a record that was created very many years before when Jim joined NFL and returned to NCAA football? This should be considered 0-0, I reckon.

In any case, this game has low scores but it is very much exciting! On the end of the 2nd quarter, everyone might have speculated that the Ravens might begin to show their dominance. However, Jim will not let his brother do this heheheh.
This is their head to head record, Jim was in NFC with the 49ers and didn't play the Ravens much if ever unless in the Superbowl. Now its 3-0 for John, Chargers couldn't stop Henry or Hill on the ground. Was a good game, but John owns Jim.

Kupp is killing me!

Did me too in 3 leagues. Worst week for fantasy for me by far. I had some dumb dropps lately too, waddle ehh, but Ladd , Jonu ..every league I had stud TEs. I’ve dropped Pitts, Hock and Jonu now in our league alone. My teams have just been so stacked but some of it’s looking like I chose incorrectly after today lol. I felt great about my chances in this league , but Hopkins not what I thought I was getting. Figured HOF WR w height for Mahomes, sign me up. Not been bad but not balling out.  I need Purdy and Sunny from remember the titans /Trev L back badly.  

Anyways I’m blabbing out of anger. Sorry, you didn’t ask for all this info lol.

Fantasy aside wow some great football today, craziness on another level ending first round of games.

Bears field goal block, again, more and more sure by the day we’re in a simulation lol
