Shit, now i have to play Jameis in my dynasty league
Properly sucks though, as he's been amazing. He could probably still get MVP, although realistically it's got to be Wilson's at this point for carrying probably the worst Seahawks team I can remember almost entirely on his own.
If it's down to quality of play, even with Wentz healthy I'd have given it to Wilson.
We might be passable without Wentz, but without Wilson the Hawks would be staring down a top 5 pick.
It should go to Andrew Luck, by virtue of the fact they're complete shite without him.
Manning should have got it the year he sat too.
Rodgers. Absolute steaming shite without him.
I look forward to Tom Brady winning it again, personally.
Yep. Should just be called 'best QB from a successful team'.
Wilson does deserve it this year as he's pretty much their entire attack. I think halfway through the last game the commentator said Wilson accounts for 82% of their total offensive yardage which is the highest in about 50 years.
Watt probably deserved to take it a couple of years ago tbh when he was also going out and catching TD's.
Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown are also unlucky not to have one or two between them.
Wilson, Wentz, Brown, Hopkins, Brady would probably be my top five, with Alvin Kamara & Shady also being worth considering off the top of my head.
Looks like it's worked out alright for Kenny. It's the NFL equivalent of a Make-A-Wish kid getting to go to Disneyland.Originally Posted by Sir Andy Mahowry
Not sure why the Pats are taking him on.
He's piss poor and a locker room cancer.
Probably going to average 200 yards a game now that he's on the Pats though.
Well that answers the question if McCarthy is dumb enough to play him.
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...rt-vs-panthers
This was, without any question, the worst week we've had in Pick'emA few big predictions made the difference though...
@Gray Fox - 23pts
@Sir Andy Mahowry - 20pts
@Limoutsonik - 19pts
@Pleb - 18pts
@Browning - 17pts
Me - 15pts
In a shameful week for picks, not a single one of us managed to get above 50% out of a full 16 game slate - Limoutsonik had 8 correct winners, GF & I had 7, Mahow & Pleb had 6, while Browning had 5. In the end it came down to the Ravens/Steelers game, with GF getting Tucker's score exactly correct & correctly calling Lev Bell as #1 RB to deny Mahow, despite 'how getting a full 5pts for his Nuke prediction.
Fingers crossed we're not that shit again this week.
We're almost at the end of the regular season now, but there's still time for things to get stirred up. It's not a particularly good slate of games this week, but there are a few interesting matchup, and it's headlined by a cracker.

Fuck you Gray.
And he calls himself a Justin Tucker fan!
Game of the Week: Patriots v Steelers. Over/under 57.5pts. I'd say over because Steelers offense is firing on all cylinders versus Pats' leake DEF and because of fucking Brady. I am going to go out on a limb and say Steelers win.
Packers v Panthers=Aaron Godgers returns but i don't think it's enough.Panthers win.
Seahawks v Rams= I hate myself for even thinking this but Rams win.
Vikings v Bengals= Vikes win and their RBs have a field day
Ravens v Browns= Ravens win although not that easy as you would think.
Saints v Jets=Poor Jets,had McCown been healthy they would have had a shot.Kamara returns too so perhaps a blowout is in the cards.Saints.
Falcons v Bucs (Monday)=Falcons.Next.
49ers v Titans= Garoppolo aka Tom Brady version 2 wins his 3rd straight.
Texans v Jaguars=Oh boy this is going to be fuckin ugly.Jagz win though.
Dolphins v Bills=A toss up.Bil...Dolphins win!
Bears v Lions (Saturday)=Lions and Stafford throws for over 350 yards.
Chargers v Chiefs (Saturday)=MVP like performance from Rivers to possibly shut the division down for the Chargers.
Colts v Broncos (Thursday)=JESUS H CHRIST this match will suck.Broncos D devours the Colts.Broncos win.
Cardinals v Redskins=Redskins win.Next.
Eagles v Giants=Can Foles reproduce his form from his 27-2?I reckon playing half as good as then will do the job so Eagles win.
Cowboys v Raiders=2nd straight for the Cowboys and Skip Bayless wanks himself to death.
#1 QB:Rivers
#1 RB:Kenyan Drake
#1 WR:Antonio Brown
#1 TE:Gronkowski
#1 DST:Saints
Nick Foles will score:17 points
And the BONUS QUESTION! Is anyone not directly affiliated with the Colts or Broncos actually going to watch TNF? OF COURSE NOT
Game of the Week: Patriots v Steelers. Over/under 57.5pts. - I feel that Brady will be firing on all cylinders with Gronk back and having lost. Steelers defence is poor and will be exposed.
Packers v Panthers - Aaron Bodgers (and Badger) will come back playing the hero
Seahawks v Rams - Seattle needs a win and I think Wilson will show why he's the MVP this year
Vikings v Bengals - Bengals are just too shit
Ravens v Browns - Collins and our Defence will stomp the fuck out of them
Saints v Jets - Kamara is going to go bonkers
Falcons v Bucs (Monday) - I think the Bucs will do surprisingly well but just wont have enough
49ers v Titans - The Jimmy G train is going to be derailed
Texans v Jaguars - Sacksonville is going to feast
Dolphins v Bills - Think the Dolphins D are due a big game and the Bills have nothing bar Shady right now
Bears v Lions (Saturday) - Stafford takes it
Chargers v Chiefs (Saturday) - Big call here but the Chiefs know they have to win and they finally remembered last week that Kareem still lives
Colts v Broncos (Thursday) - I can see Marlon Mack having a breakout performance
Cardinals v Redskins - I really don't rate the 'Skins at all this year
Eagles v Giants - It will be a bit more competitive with Foles under centre but still an easy win
Cowboys v Raiders - Still fighting for a wild card spot (which they'll just miss out on) will see them take it
#1 QB: Brady
#1 RB: Kamara (in the event he's inactive, my pick will be Alex Collins)
#1 WR: Hopkins again
#1 TE: Gronk
#1 DST: Ravens
Nick Foles will score: 15 points
And the BONUS QUESTION! Is anyone not directly affiliated with the Colts or Broncos actually going to watch TNF?
GAME OF THE WEEK: Patriots v Steelers. Over/under 57.5pts. - Nice, a top of a conference shootout, don't bother turning up Pittsburgh, you already have a first round bye, let the Patriots shit themselves silly.
(Thursday Night) Colts v Broncos - Fucking garbage and I'm picking the fucking Colts to take it
(Saturday Night) Bears v Lions - Garbage.
(Saturday Night) Chargers v Chiefs - Merely interested in this shitefest but the Chiefs are on a bit of a slump I believe so this pick is proper flithy.
Packers v Panthers - Rodgers is back, get fucked Newton.
Seahawks v Rams - Coin toss.
Vikings v Bengals - Woof.
Ravens v Browns - That was dirty.
Saints v Jets - Dan
49ers v Titans - Garbage.
Texans v Jaguars - Oh boy you can tell this is christmas.
Dolphins v Bills - Get fucked Dolphins.
Cardinals v Redskins - Kirk Cousins likes this pick.
Eagles v Giants - Lame.
Cowboys v Raiders - The shitfest continues, is Elliott back yet?
(Monday Night) Falcons v Bucs - The Bucs are thinking "Oh shit.", I'm thinking garbage.
#1 QB: Kirk Cousins
#1 RB: Kareem Hunt
#1 WR: Julio Jones
#1 TE: Zach Ertz
#1 DST: Green Bay Packers
Nick Foles will score: Fuck all...there I said it...None, 0!!
And the BONUS QUESTION! Is anyone not directly affiliated with the Colts or Broncos actually going to watch TNF? I ask you the same question, did anyone watch Thursday Night Football?
Game of the Week: Patriots v Steelers. Over/under 57.5pts. These sorts of games never end up being an insanely high scoring as we expect, so I'm fancying it to just scrape under the line, with the Patriots taking it by a score. Either way we'll more than likely get a rematch of this game in a few weeks, you'd imagine.
Packers v Panthers - I really want to be wrong on this one, but I've been scared of Carolina all season so why stop now?
Seahawks v Rams - Even the Jags could barely hold off Wilson, so I'm not convinced the Rams will be able to slow him down enough.
Vikings v Bengals - Minnesota don't get slapped like last week very often. I'm expecting them to shut the Bengals down.
Ravens v Browns - I can't keep wasting picks on you Cleveland.
Saints v Jets - PLEASE DON'T FUCK THIS UP.
Falcons v Bucs (Monday) - I'd really appreciate good Jamies/Evans/Brate showing up this week, but I doubt it. Maybe they'll cover Julio this time though.
49ers v Titans - The Titans are in a slump, and the Niners are on the rise. These things will both still be true next week.
Texans v Jaguars - If I'm TJ Yates I'm hoping Tom Savage plays so I don't have to get the shit kicked out of me by every Jag on the field.
Dolphins v Bills - If Tyrod plays I'll have the Bills nicking it, but I'm expecting the run to dominate on both sides. The real Jay Cutler will play this week too.
Bears v Lions (Saturday) - This screams Jordan Howard to me. The Lions are shite against the run & the Bears DEF can keep them in it.
Chargers v Chiefs (Saturday) - The Chiefs go back to being a mess. Will anyone stop Keenan Allen again this season?
Colts v Broncos (Thursday) -
Cardinals v Redskins - The Redskins are basically all dead, but they've still got just enough to nick this one despite Chandler Jones running wild.
Eagles v Giants - I fancy the Giants to get up for this game, and I nearly picked them, but they're just really, really shit.
Cowboys v Raiders - Speaking of really, really shit, the Oakland Raiders everybody! Cowboys to cruise through this.
#1 QB: Russell Wilson - He's their whole offence, and he'll have to have a huge game for them to have any shot.
#1 RB: Jordan Howard - If it falls into place for him he could have a mental game.
#1 WR: Keenan Allen - Like I said, who's going to stop him?
#1 TE: Kyle Rudolph - I think it's going to be a shit week for TE's other than the big three, and yet I'm still picking Rudolph for some reason.
#1 DST: Minnesota They could have a huge bounceback game after a shock last week.
Nick Foles will score: 16pts He'll be fine, but they'll lean a bit more on the run, which will hold him back slightly.
And the BONUS QUESTION! Is anyone not directly affiliated with the Colts or Broncos actually going to watch TNF?
EDIT: TNF picks needed from @Gray Fox & @Browning still.
Wait, Saturday? What the fuck is that?
Christmas.
I know, it's weird. Pretty sure the college football bowl games start this week too, so that'll be annoying.
Just seen that Rudolph is likely to miss Sunday so I'm changing my TE pick to Kelce. I may review this again on Sunday though, as I'm still not sure what's happening with Ertz & Graham either.
The real winner tonight is the audience, does that count?
If not then.... Denver, purely because it's the better fantasy outcome for me. Probably.
The real winner tonight is the anti-TNF movement. This game is almost enough of a reason to scrap it on its own, nevermind all the injuries etc.
Game of the Week: Patriots v Steelers. Over/under 57.5pts. Under. Patriots.
Packers v Panthers - Panthers
Seahawks v Rams - Hawks
Vikings v Bengals - Vikings
Ravens v Browns - Ravens
Saints v Jets - Saints
Falcons v Bucs (Monday) - Falcons
49ers v Titans - 49ers
Texans v Jaguars - Jags
Dolphins v Bills - Dolphins
Bears v Lions (Saturday) - Lions
Chargers v Chiefs (Saturday) - Chargers
Colts v Broncos (Thursday) - Colts
Cardinals v Redskins - Cards
Eagles v Giants - Eagles
Cowboys v Raiders - Raiders
#1 QB: Rivers
#1 RB: Drake
#1 WR: Julio Jones
#1 TE: Doyle
#1 DST: Panthers
Nick Foles will score: 11.5 points
Osweiler running in TD's
Going to be an odd watching NFL on a saturday night.
Better than watching fucking Troy vs North Texas, though.
Half the Bucs already bad defence is out for the Falcons game. I'm confident in Julio. Coming to fuck me in my fantasy play offs.
Yeah, that's pretty much what I thought
To be fair, Oregon v boise might not be terrible. Oregon have their new big boss man so they might actually turn up.Yeah, that's pretty much what I thought
But yeah, a whole host of shit.
I hate Boise state and it is entirely down to their home field turf being blue. It's just so bad to try and watch as it's too bright. Hope the lose by double digits.
I've recorded that one, but in all honestly I probably won't end up watching it
These Lions colour rush uniforms are awful.
These Detroit uniforms are hideous.
I really don't know who's going to win the SB this year. Pittsburg struggled past the Browns in game 1 and yet might be the favourite.
I'd love to see Keenum get the vikings there. Mike zimmer is a very likeable coach.
The bengals 2013(?) coaching staff is rife as head coaches now. Marvin Lewis, jay gruden, mike zimmer, hue Jackson.
Patriots & Steelers are likely to be meeting again in the AFC Championship game, whereas in the NFC there are probably eight teams that could end up in the big game, so it's hard to make a guess at the minute, but I'd probably say Minnesota & Seattle are the favourites. Minnesota because they're just a really good, balanced team, and Seattle because they know how to do it & Wilson's playing insane.
I'd love to see the Jags spring an upset in the AFC though.
The problem with the jags is they still have bortles at the helm. All it takes is fournette to feel a bit gimpy before Blake decides to turn the ball over when he jumps into "go long" mode.
9 wins this year and I'd still be looking for a young qb to groom.
What a beastly catch from Mavin Jones
EDIT: LOL Theo Riddick.
Mister Biscuit
Picks updated.
Is that a Cowboys pick or a Raiders one? I'm not sure you're going to do well with your Foles prediction though
I never get individual player points right so I did that purely for lolz.
It was a Raiders pick @Dan.
I'm not feeling good about my Bears pick, but at least I ducked out of Howard at the last minute.
That was a literally perfect catch from Cohen.
I've done a quick tally on excel, this is what we got on the season for picks etc...
@Sir Andy Mahowry - 148
@Dan - 141
@Browning - 132
Me - 131
@Limoutsonik - 67
@Gray Fox - 66
Mahow and Dan fighting it out it seems.
Well, this game is done.
Didn't get a chance to watch it but just looking at the stats it's baffling.
46 pass attempts for Trubisky with only 10 rushing attempts for Howard.
I think I'd prefer that to be reversed if I was a Bears fan, have more chance of winning that way.
Chiefs finally putting together some offence and defence in the same game, Chargers coming up well short again when they face someone decent.
Chargers aren't done yet though, as I think they'll beat the jets and raiders and the Chiefs could still lose to the Dolphins next week, but in the end I think the Chiefs will beat the Broncos in week 17 leaving the Chargers to be the best 9-7 side in the AFC to miss out on a wildcard.
Either way neither of these teams are getting past the steelers or pats in the playoffs
Only one to pick the Chiefs
They gave Hunt a lot of touches(31) and they win the game. They must surely notice a pattern there.
Marvin Lewis leaving Cincy, apparently. Wonder what that means for Hue.
The Packers defence is still shit.
Wonder what it means for Dalton.
