Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Losing my win streak
I might embarrass myself at it this week.
Stunned that I lost considering I didn't have the Ravens in there to muddy my picks.
I’m taking that as a victory over Mahow as I knew Freeman would do fuck all.
Would have picked Graham too if I wasn’t being lazy on Thursday. Oh well.
Tyrod is benched for Nathan peterman.
Good move from a team pushing for the playoffs.
Those upstairs in Buffalo clearly don't like Tyrod. They said as much towards the end of last season, but couldn't replace him. I don't get it either. He's not a top tier QB but he's good. He also has them in play-off contention for the first time in years.Originally Posted by Foe
He would have scored a TD had it not been for the dirty Cowboys players.
Fuck Jerry Hitler.
Add them to the list in the QB hunt.
That's it with a QB though, if they don't think you can get them a Super Bowl, you're not the answer.
I suspect Mr Winston in Tampa Bay might get to that in a year or two time. He's like a regen of Alex smith in that regard for me.
Nah, Koetter's getting the boot at the end of the year & Gruden will come back to coaching just to work with Jameis.
Winston needs something to change anyway. He's a year off dumping.
I agree with Dan.
The Hard Knocks this season made Gruden look so positive and giddy about Winston.
He's obviously got some talent and he's the right personality to lead the team, but he's not backing that up with wins and play.
I think fitz will show him up until he's back.
Id like him to succeed, because he's great to watch from a neutral stand point.
Week 11 Pick'em has a much more interesting slate of games than last week, with several potential GotW candidates, but we've done Dallas a lot, and Washington last week recently, so it's back to the Patriots! That game being in Mexico makes it worth edging the Seattle/Atlanta game out for the spot, I reckon.

Lead them where, exactly?
Fuck her right in the pussy is also a great thing to shout in a College cafeteria.
Real leadership qualities.
Zeke has withdrawn his appeal and will serve the full 6 games.

"It was definitely her decision for me to go," Goodwin said Wednesday. "I gave her the option: Did she want me to go to the game or stay at the hospital with her? And she insisted that I go and play with my team and get a victory. So it was very selfless of her to allow me go and do something like that.
"... Her insisting that I go and do something else instead of being by her side at a time when she needed me most, [it] speaks volumes about her character. A lot less about me and more about her. Her resiliency and her willingness to be so selfless and allow me to go and do my job -- words really can't explain."
He also didn't tell any of his teammates until after the game.
I saw that he didn't tell them and it made sense when you saw one or two clearly running up to see why he was celebrating the way he was.
Is it really over?

GAME OF THE WEEK: Patriots v Raiders. Over/under 49.5pts. - The AFC conference in general looks garbage. The Patriots have overcome a slump (lolasif) for the first few weeks of the season and the Raiders are in for a decent shout at a shot for a playoff spot which is batshit mental if you ask me. That being said the league is in Mexico City this week so expect the Patriots to lol in the Raiders face while two teams in the AFC South take the last two wildcard spots.
(Thursday Night) Titans v Steelers - Did you hear my speech towards the Patriots Pittsburgh? Your facing the Texans on Thursday night though and I can only assume and hope that Big Ben is pretty good under the primetime lights. Expect fireworks.
Saints v Redskins - Kirk Cousins doesn't like this pick. Saints are on a massive charge. This can only get messy.
Lions v Bears - Garbage.
Jags v Browns - The Jaguars are in a playoff spot? Holy shit. Back to the matchup in hand...uh...Browns, garbage, easy win. No wonder Sackonville are doing so well in such a garbage conference...uh...division.
Bengals v Broncos - This is a fist fight...I mean a coin toss.
Bills v Chargers - Hold the fort Bills, you got an easy win here. Oh your benching your star quarterback huh? This will be messy.
Chiefs v Giants - Someone wake me up when this is over.
Ravens v Packers - Christ sake Packers get yourself a decent team in the draft for the love of my sanity. This maybe the only time I back Mahow and now I feel proper dirty.
Bucs v Dolphins - Joy we got ourselves a Florida derby in town. Shame both teams are complete garbage. Expect this to go into overtime because DRAMA!!!
Rams v Vikings - Uh yeah sure them. This one will probably be garbage.
Cardinals v Texans - Not feeling this one. Expect this to be garbage.
(Sunday Night) Eagles v Cowboys - It's happened, the football gods have spoken. Dallas Cowboys are fucked. Add Carson Wentz and Zach Ertz (if he's fit) in the mix to add insult to injury and you got yourself a matchup. At least the Cowboys have got Ezekiel Elliott back for the playoffs right...right?
(Monday Night) Falcons v Seahawks - Expect fireworks, pick sixes and a team who likes to blow healthy first half leads heading into the fourth quarter. Russell Wilson is in town Atlanta, throw him a party for party sakes.
#1 QB: Tyrod Taylor...wait he's benched...shit...uh...Alex Smith because he's facing the Giants.
#1 RB: Kareem Hunt because he's Kareem and we believe in him.
#1 WR: Doug Baldwin...and now I've jinxed him
#1 TE: Zach Ertz
#1 DST: Baltimore Ravens because god damn it Mahow you had to pick a great moment to face the Packers didn't you?
LeSean McCoy will score: Uh...5 points.
Doesn't feel right having everyone (thus far) backing the Ravens.
12-3 coming off a Bye though for a LEAGUE BEST and it is fucking Hundley.
Extra players
I’ll be backing the Ravens too, so it’s bound to be a crushing win for the Packers.
Dede Westbrook expects 200 yards receiving on his debut.
Man, my fantasy team hopes you guys are right with your #1 player picks - Brown, Hunt & Carr all in there
Guess I'd better get mine it too...
Game of the Week: Patriots v Raiders. Over/under 49.5pts. - I really wanted to go under, but neither of these teams can defend (Pats have got better though, to be fair). I hope it's a shootout, but I just can't trust the Raiders to come out of this one with a win.
Titans v Steelers - Lots of running here, I feel. Might be quite a few deep throws too. Should be good, but the Steelers will edge it.
Saints v Redskins - I'm waiting for the loss. This could easily be it, but they have no reliable offence & we could win 24-17ish.
Lions v Bears - Probably closer than you'd expect, but the offences are the difference, particularly at QB & WR.
Jags v Browns - Just following the formula...
Bengals v Broncos - This could (will) be an atrocious game, but the Broncos are a mess right now.
Eagles v Cowboys - Great game to watch young, stud QBs, but Philly should take it unless the bye ruined them.
Bills v Chargers - Has anyone considered that this could be Nathan Peterman v Kellen Clemens? Ugh. Bosa to tear them up.
Chiefs v Giants - Gonna take a gamble here. KC have slipped off, and the Giants still have enough to be able to nick it of they show up.
Ravens v Packers - Gotta love the Ravens defence here. That's about all though. Should be GB/Bears all over again.
Bucs v Dolphins - Probably not a good game, but there's shootout potential. Jameis can watch his team eat an L.
Rams v Vikings - Another one I'm taking a swing at - Rams have been great, but the Vikings can give them a game in every phase.
Cardinals v Texans - Gabbert's playing.
Falcons v Seahawks - This might end up being the hardest game to call this week. Wilson magic to make the difference.
#1 QB: Russell Wilson - He's always got a chance it a potential shootout.
#1 RB: Lev Bell - Why not take a punt on a guy who gets 30 touches a game?
#1 WR: DeVante Parker - This isn't quite as bold as Sammy Watkins last week, but it's close.
#1 TE: Jared Cook - Kelce's too easy, and Cook's been playing well lately.
#1 DST: Chargers - Peterman probably won't throw a load of picks, but he probably won't lead many scoring drives either.
LeSean McCoy will score: 11pts - He's still a freak, and he gets peppered with touches. He'll find a way.
Game of the Week: Patriots v Raiders. Over/under 49.5pts.- Patriots, Over
Titans v Steelers- I desperately need this to be a utter shoot out, preferably with no rushing TDs and all passing TDs (though if they go to Bell, even better). Steelers to win.
Saints v Redskins- Saints are on a roll, so I'll pick them.
Lions v Bears- Lions, of course.
Jags v Browns- Jags.
Bengals v Broncos- This one is actually tough because the Broncos look SO bad but the Bengals do too. Broncos to shade it.
Eagles v Cowboys- Eagles, Dak can't stay on his feet.
Bills v Chargers- Chargers, by a long way.
Chiefs v Giants- No contest. Chiefs.
Ravens v Packers- Ravens.... I guess, but I'm not happy about it.
Bucs v Dolphins- With Fitzmagic at QB? The Bucs.
Rams v Vikings- Rams
Cardinals v Texans- Ugh, do we have to? Cardinals....
Falcons v Seahawks- Seahawks.
#1 QB: Tom Brady
#1 RB: TODD GURLEY of course.
#1 WR: Antonio Brown
#1 TE: Travis Kelce
#1 DST: The Jaguars.
Shady will score.... 8 points.
Browning & Limoutsonik have the exact same game picks. Don't think we've had that before. They also have three of the same position picks
I call collusion!
Really? That's fucking weird. Last week I copied Dan's picks into word and edited them and felt like it influenced me too much so this week I made a point of scrolling back to find the blank post to copy. Guy obviously just knows his football.
He’s now under investigation for groping an Uber driver last year. Also didn’t realise he’d been accused of rape in 2012.
Lead them where, exactly?
Franchise QB right there.
So the question is do they return for another crack at the Franchise QB in 2018 or 2019?
There are also rumours swirling of Peyton Manning coming in at Cleveland. They own 2 picks in the top 10 R1 of the coming draft currently. They should trade back a little and gain more R1 picks for the future, but should still have 2 top picks with which one will almost certainly be a QB.
Surely Manning will be a better judge of a potential QB.
As what, GM?
Yeah, though Hue Jackson probably wont last to 2018 in any case so expect a new coach too. I don't see Peyton taking up coaching.
Would inject a bit of life there at least.
Genuinely thought that Peyton would be suiting up for one last ride.
@Dan
The Blaine Train is officially leaving the station:
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...nals-vs-texans
The Browns throwing money at a veteran qb who's well past it would be an idiotic move. They're out of the playoff hunt and it's not a long term solution. Test your team to find out who the guys to keep are and give them experience and re group in the draft / free agency.
Sometimes it's almost like you can't read:
They want him as GM as has been covered.
This is what I was responding to.
OMGugotme.
Not really though.
On a side note, college gameday is in Wisconsin and it's fucking freezing there. Reckon we could be close to some snow games.
The fumble that just happened in the Arizona/Mississippi State game
Just watched the USC/UCLA game to get a look at Darnold & Rosen. I've seen a little bit of USC before, but I don't think I've watched any UCLA this season, so this is the ideal chance to see them both in action.
For me, despite the loss, Rosen looked like a better QB than Darnold, although USC are working with a bunch of new WRs that don't always help Sam Darnold out, and the UCLA guys made about ten huge gains off short catch & run plays. The USC special teams made a big difference, with a TD & lots of big gains to set them up in good field position.
Rosen has a nice arm & impressive accuracy - almost every throw hit the receiver exactly where you'd want it to, including a few deep balls that were right in stride. Darnold's more athletic, and his arm talent is as good as Rosen's, but he's not as accurate & he gets out the pocket every second play, which more often than not results in him slinging it downfield while running out of bounds under pressure.
As for other guys, Jordan Lasley had a monster game for UCLA, with something like 200 yards & 3TDs, and he looks like a decent WR2 with great acceleration & run after the catch ability, while on the other side of the ball Ronald Jones looks like a stud. He wears 25, and he pulled off a jump cut in the backfield early in the game that was proper Shady material. Quick, can run inside & out, good catcher, he was impressive when I watched USC before & I'd say he's the second or third best RB in the class, depending on what I think of Derrius Guice when I actually watch him properly.
He's probably a stronger runner than Saquon Barkley, which is mad considering Barkley's size & physical strength, and RoJo's almost as good as him in most other areas, but Saquon just has the spark of a superstar, even if it's hard to produce superstar numbers when every team sends four guys out to get you on every play regardless of whether you have the ball or not.
Sterling Shepard likely out due to illness. I’m officially changing my pick in that game - can’t see the Giants pulling off an upset with only Evan Engram to throw to.
I didn't even see that, you picked the Giants to win?
Were you completely hammered at the time?
I didn't even see that, you picked the Giants to win?
Were you completely hammered at the time?
I was taking a gamble based on the Chiefs defence being shit & the Giants still having a decent enough D-Line to shut down Kareem Hunt, but with Shepard out there's only one good receiver for Eli to throw to, and Snacks Harrison might be out too, so they'll have less against the run than anticipated as well.
Considering three people will probably get 5pts for picking Antonio Brown I should really change all my picks to the underdogs, but that's a bit too drastic to work out.
