Wowza.... there were some points scored this week. Some of these players had a day! Just look at what was produced this week...
A) Jonathan Taylor - 53.4 points.... 185 yards rushing and 4 total touchdowns
B) Austin Ekeler - 41.5 points.... 4 total touchdowns and 115 total yards
C) Justin Jefferson - 37.2 points.... 8 catches, 2 touchdowns and over 170 total yards
D) Aaron Rodgers - 33.5 points... 385 yards and 4 touchdowns
E) Davante Adams - 30.5 points... 7 catches, 2 touchdowns and 115 yards
F) New England Defense - 26 points... 1 touchdown, 4 interceptions, 4 sacks, shut-out
Just absolutely insane, not too mention that 2 of these were on the same team! Too bad it was the wrong team...
Playoff Projections
1. Gruden's Emails: 100% - They are really just trying to lock-up the top spot.
2. Hernandez Hit Men: 100% - Fighting for the top spot.
3. Hoosier Daddy: 100% - Fighting for the top spot - but losing in points to HHM if they end-up in a tie.
4. Country Roads: 100% - A win this week all but locks up the playoffs and the 2nd seed by winning their division.
5. Backup Backups: 90% - Destiny is their hands and if they keep scoring like they have been, they will find a way to the promise land.
6. The J-Bones: 60% - Has there ever been a team owner that hates his team so much and yet is still in the midst of the playoff contention.
7. ARBL: 50% - If they make the playoffs it will be because of big time wins finishing the season with (Ankle Holster), Hoosier Daddy and Backup Backups.
8. The Fortune Cockies: 58% - Finishing the season with (Teardrops), Ankle Holster and PEN15 helps the chances tremendously.
9. Church Vans: 45% - A win this week (BBB) would set-up Church for a good ending of the season with matchups against Teardrops and HHM.
10. Teardrop TDs: 43% - Arguably the best finishing stretch in terms of match-ups... TFC, Vans, Dixie.
11. PEN15 Wrinkle: 28% - This team needs help in order to make the playoffs, needs the right teams to lose.
12. Dixie Normous: 30% - Honestly, look out... I see an interesting push from Dixie coming.
13. Belt Fairy: 13% - All but out it, but could ruin some people's season.
14. Ankle Holster: 0% - Completely out of the running, but can really ruin some team's chances
Matchup of the Week
Bluffton Backup Backups** (6-5) v Country Roads** (7-4)
Country Roads locked a huuuge win, pushing them into the race for the top spot. Hurts is a top tier QB and Jefferson had an amazing week. This team is good, like good, good. The running back issue is going to be fixed when Kamara comes back. On the flip side, BBB has a stellar duo with Cook and Swift. This MotW lived up to the hype and both teams finished in the top 5 scoring and we had the belt winner come out of the MotW. Big time win for the belt for Country Roads.
Prediction: Bluffton Backup Backups... WRONG!!

Gruden's Emails* (9-2) v The Fortune Cockies (5-6)
This matchup meant a lot for both teams and Gruden's Emails was able to grab sole possession 1st place in the league. If you didn't know Cam Newton is back and this week he puts up some large numbers, finishing at QB4 this week. On the flip side, Jones struggled against a tough Buccaneers defense and the MNF push was never to be. Emails is already in the playoffs and will be fighting for a seeding, while TFC is in the middle of the pack struggling to finally clinch their spot in the promise land.
Prediction: The Fortune Cockies... WRONG!!

Teardrop's TDs (5-6) v Belt Fairy* (3-8)
Teardrops was able to lock-up a huuuuge win, even with Lamb going out with a concussion and a terrible game from Mayfield. Chubb was able to carry the load and give the Titties just what they needed - a win to throw in the middle of the playoff hunt. Teardrops has now won 3 of their last 4 and are looking to really shock the world and make the playoffs after going 0-4 to start the season. On the flip side, Belt Fairy has all but closed the door on this season. With just 3 weeks remaining - they need to win all three and have some nearly impossible help. To be honest, I am not even sure if it is possible - but I will never count anyone out, unless they are actually out.
Prediction: Belt Fairy.... WRONG!!

Hoosier Daddy* (8-3) v Church Vans (5-6)
The trade for David Johnson didn't really matter when Ekeler decided to have a monstrosity of a game. Ekeler had 4 total touchdowns and over 100 total yards. Hoosier Daddy is competing for the top spot in the league and this win definitely helped his case. On the flip side, Church Vans now sits in the middle of the pack and the playoff push gets a little bit tighter. Will the David Johnson trade be the difference for the Vans? Doubtful.
Prediction: Hoosier Daddy... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Hoosier Daddy... RIGHT!!
PEN15 Wrinkle (5-6) v Dixie Normous (4-7)
Does Dixie still have a fighting chance????? Anything could happen when you have Jonathan Taylor holding it down for you - HOLY SHIT!!! On top of the Taylor explosion Wrinkle had Buffalo's defense going - a double whammy. Think about this, Dixie scored over 130 points and had more than half of his starting lineup fail to reach double digits. On the flip side, Wrinkle finds themselves in the thick of the playoff hunt and is going to need to find a way to score more points in the future if they want to find a way to the promise land.
Prediction: PEN15 Wrinkle... WRONG!!
Mystery Guet: Dixie Normous... RIGHT!!
Ankle Holster (2-9) v The J-Bones (5-6)
What we have here is a team that has been taken out to the pasture and put to rest. Maybe this is an eskimo community where we put old grandpa on an iceberg and let him float away... never to be seen again. Maybe this is a Viking community and we put their body on a wooden ship and shoot flaming arrows at it. Maybe this is a South African tribe where we eat the body and use the bones as weapons (definitely not this one). Either way, Ankle Holster is gone and now gets to play to role of spoiler and it could be deadly. He to play ARBL (5-6), The Fortune Cockies (5-6), and Country Roads (7-4)... a lot could happen solely based on Ankle Holster.
Oh yeah, good job The J-Bones
Prediction: Ankle Holster... WRONG!!

Hernandez Hit Men* (8-3) v Aaron Rodgers Blows Llamas*** (5-6)
What do you do when a team that features a Mahomes/Hill stack and Landry and Smith, but yet somehow can't even break 70 points for the week? You just hope this team doesn't make the playoffs - because you know an explosion of points is coming soon. ARBL is like playing the game perfection - you know the timer is going to go off and the board is going pop-up... you just don't know exactly when it is going to happen. On the flip side, HHM continues to win - but he can thank his lucky stars here - he was clearly in the bottom half of the league this week.
Prediction: Aaron Rodgers Blows Llamas... WRONG!!
Mystery Guest: Hernandez Hit Men... RIGHT!!
Season: 42-35
Mystery Guest: 35-42
