Wings of Dickarus will be the number one seed - as expected. However, Wings is limping into the playoffs and could easily be ripe for an upset. They are still consistently scoring in the 120's - but it is more how they are scoring that, reliant upon one player going off. The bigger issue is that a few of the teams that are still fighting for a playoff spot are scoring between 130 and 150.
Other than finally nailing down the top seed, nothing else was solved. What we do know, with one week left....
Playoff Bound
Wings of Dickarus

What we do know is that it is going to take 7 wins to get in - which means about half the teams "In the Mix" control their own destiny while a few need a few dominoes to fall. Be on the lookout for the predictions for the final week and what each team needs to happen. For now, this week....
Matchup of the Week
Florida State Seminal Vesicle** (7-5) v Ankle Holster* (5-7)
Results: Florida State Seminal Vesicle wins
Prediction: Ankle Holster wins... WRONG!!
Mystery Guest: Ankle Holster wins... WRONG!!
Wings of Dickarus** (10-2) v Massive TD's* (6-6)
Wings has now locked up the top seed and they did it with a lineup featuring McKissic and Laird. Wings has been very reliant on his pass catchers and they have not let him down. On the flip side, Massive is now going to need a little help to make the playoffs. Not only will he now be scribed in the record books, but he may be staying there for quite a while. Luckily his kicker was able to make it to double digits, otherwise he may have secured the worst all-time - for now he will be 2nd on the all-time lowest score in a given week list.
Result: Wings of Dickarus wins
Prediction: Massive TD's wins.... WRONG!!
Mystery Guest: Massive TD's wins.... WRONG!!
Biggus Dickus* (7-5) v Bluffton Backup Backups (2-10)
What is the remedy for team that was sliding down the standings and facing possible elimination? Playing the worst team in the league. Biggus didn't do much to solidify his ranking, but they did do just enough. Winston had a good game, and Edelman also had a good week. Kupp was not needed on Monday, but the points may come in handy. On the flip side.... well, there is no flip side.
Results: Biggus Dickus wins
Predictions: Biggus Dickus wins... RIGHT!!

...And Your Johnson (4-8) v PEN15 Wrinkle* (7-5)
Don't look now by Johnson has now won two in a row and both have been against teams that are in the playoff race. It is a shame it is too little too late, because something is working for this team. They just took down the top team in the Reverse Cowgirl division and now everything is up for grabs. Tannehill played very well and they might be a quarterback controversy in town (at least that is what my inside source told me). On the flip side, this was a terrific chance for Wrinkle to lock up the second seed and the division title - not so fast. Now, they must win in the final week or face the possibility of dropping down in ranking - and dropping down far.
Result: ...And Your Johnson wins
Prediction: PEN15 Wrinkle wins... WRONG!!
Mystery Guest: PEN15 Wrinkle wins... WRONG!!
Aaron Rodgers Blows Llamas* (7-5) v Hoosier Daddy** (6-6)
ARBL loses this week, and that is more thanks to Cleveland (or Miami) than anything else. ARBL didn't have any player score more than 20 points this week - not a good sign for winning. On the flip side, Hoosier Daddy keeps his playoff hopes alive with a big week from his Cleveland quartet. All four Cleveland "players" outscored their projections this week and the big three (Chubb/OBJ/Landry) combined for 82.6 points - which would have beaten three entire teams. All of this and you include the league MVP and you have a recipe for a team that could make some noise if they make the playoffs. What is better than getting a win in a must-win week? Sex. But what is just below sex? Winning the belt.
Results: Hoosier Daddy wins
Prediction: Hoosier Daddy wins.... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Hoosier Daddy wins.... RIGHT!!
The J-Bones (3-9) v Hernandez Hit Men* (6-6)
Hernandez Hit Men had a huge week - which will be especially important when it comes to tie-breakers for the playoff race. HHM had no one break the 30 point threshold, but they had 5 players score more than 20 points, yes - you read that correctly, 5 players more than 20 points. The week started off poorly for The J-Bones, Pascal had a goose egg - and he played! The J-Bones is playing for pride and essentially trying to not be considered the worst team in the league.
Result: Hernandez Hit Men wins
Prediction: Hernandez Hit Men wins... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: The J-Bones wins... WRONG!!
Dixie Normous (8-4) v The Back Hatch (6-6)
The Back Hatch has now won two in a row and needs one more win to have a chance for the playoffs. Dixie Normous is already locked in the for the playoffs and they are now just playing for position. This upcoming week is not as stressful for them, but they could drop as far as the 6th seed (unlikely, but possible). The Back Hatch did not do a lot to put some fear in opposing teams, but they did enough to beat a team that scored in the 60's - yayyyyyy!!
Results: The Back Hatch wins
Prediction: The Back Hatch wins... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Dixie Normous wins... WRONG!!
Season: 46-31, 1 belt prediction
Mystery Guest: 41-36, 3 correct belt predictions
