Week 8 Results

 We had another week of crazy upsets in the NFL...

Minnesota beat Green Bay and made every Bears fan happy that they are still relevant in the division for at least another week

Miami's defense was able to shut down the LARams offense

Joey B and the Boys outplayed Tennessee

What can you say? The NFL is a wacky, crazy, world! But then again, so is fantasy football....

Three starting quarterbacks that scored less than 10 points - and two of them were in negative for a good portion of their respective game.

Dalvin Cook had 4 touchdowns, 220+ scrimmage yards - and still didn't break 50 points. Why don't we include bonuses again?

The Eagles defense was The J-Bones highest point scorer - and they won!

On to the matchups....

Matchup of the Week

iTouchdown There* (4-4) v 3rd and 41* (3-5)

iTouchdown There looks like a bonafide genius at this moment. Dalvin Cook just scorched the Packers for 4 touchdowns and yet again for another week iTouchdown has a player that close to the all-time week high score. Just think about this, the past two weeks iTouchdown has one player score more than 45 points - not a bad way to get a couple W's. 3rd and 41 is pretty reliant on having a player score more than 30 points. Don't believe me? In the three wins this season 3rd and 41 has had 5 players scored more than 30 points - in the 5 losses? Zero players scored more than 30 points. Doesn't seem crazy enough? What if I told you that if 3rd and 41 doesn't have a running back score 20 or more points.... they will lose every time. Still not crazy enough? What if I told you that every time 3rd and 41 plays a team with a winning record, they beat them; but if they play a team at .500 or lower - they lose. Not a sign for the playoffs...

Prediction: 3rd and 41 wins.... WRONG!!

Mystery Guest: iTouchdown There wins.... RIGHT!!

Penis Fly Trap (5-3) v Hernandez Hit Men* (5-3)

Well, this matchup honestly not worth the time spent typing this write-up. PFT narrowly avoided the all-time bottom five. Let's just say this - PFT is the equivalency of the Chicago Bears, nobody knows how they have a winning record and everyone says they are the worst of the teams at the top. On the flip side, HHM can thank their lucky stars they play PFT - because they did not have a strong showing. But hey, you beat whoever is in front you and that is that...

Prediction: Hernandez Hit Men win... RIGHT!!

Solo Driving Asians (3-5) v Bluffton Backup Backups (3-5)

When that SDA is running through a red light, getting ready to climax, do you think it is thinking about Davante Adams catching footballs? I can not fathom any other scenario. Poor Grau, all he needed was for Adams to not have a good week and then he would have never gotten side swiped by that dumb SDA. On the flip side, BBB had a pretty consistent scoring output - if it wasn't from the Titans defense getting schlacked by Joey B and the boys. Squints also uncharacteristically missed two extra points - not that it would have mattered. A big win for the Asians and they right back in the thick of things!

Prediction: Bluffton Backup Backups wins... WRONG!!

Aaron Rodgers Blows Llams (4-4) v Asymmetric TDs** (6-2)

The loss was expected, but the beatdown was a little over the top. ARBL made a big trade for the future and let's hope it pays off, because if this is the outcome - no bueno! On the flip side, TD's won the belt (narrowly) and it is due to the stars having a great week. Mahomes and Kamara have been fantastic this year and they finally got a little more help this week from Kupp. No doubt about it, Asymmetric TD's is a team with lofty goals this year.

Prediction: Asymmetric TDs wins... RIGHT!!

Mystery Guest: Aaron Rodgers Blows Llams wins... WRONG!!

The J-Bones** (4-4) v Ankle Holster* (3-5)

It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win! Brady and Gronk made things interesting on MNF, almost mounting a comeback. Amazingly, this matchup came down to defense and the decisions of the managers. The J-Bones played Philadelphia's defense and scored 21 points, all the while Ankle Holster sat Miami's defense which scored 18 points. Had AH played Miami's defense, this would be a different story.

Prediction: The J-Bones wins... RIGHT!!

Mystery Guest: Ankle Holster wins... WRONG!!

Dixie Normous (3-5) v PEN15 Wrinkle (3-5)

Thatta boy PEN15, way to bounce back from the back-to-back showings of despair. For a second there I thought we were going to find a body that was bleeding out - instead we found Jones and Aiyuk telling everyone to R-E-L-A-X. This was a big win for Wrinkle and an even bigger loss for Dixie. The real question is.... how long will Dixie hold out before he makes a trade in order to make a run at the playoffs?

Prediction: Dixie Normous wins... WRONG!!

Remember the Redskins (6-2) v 2 Gurleys 1 Cupp (4-4)

This is a big win for RtR - take a one game lead in the division and welcome back Run CMC next week. I can not speak enough on #LETRUSSCOOK. Not to mention, if Wilson happens to be serving it up to Metcalf this team has one of the deadliest stacks in the league. No defense has an answer for Seattle at this point - too many options and once one receiver gets going, Wilson just continues to feed him. Outside of that, there is not a ton of help. RtR will gladly welcome back Run CMC and continue to strive for higher aspirations.

Prediction: 2 Gurleys 1 Cupp wins... WRONG!!
