Are we shocked? Are we surprised at what took place? I know one of us that is not that surprised...
"Look for the TE's to make the big difference this week."
"Allen and Diggs will need to have big weeks and not let the Bill slip further in the playoff race."
"Kittle and Garappolo will give them a fighting chance...."
This seems like one of those moments when someone predicts something crazy or multiple things and they may be wrong most of the time, but when they are right - they throw it in your face. We all know what I am talking about - typically it takes place with kids. Maybe they are shooting half court shots - it takes them 15/20 times and then it finally goes in and everybody goes crazy. As if something special just happened? Pssssssshhhhhhhhhh....
Either way, this week was a good prediction - and quite possibly the clinching week in the battle between The Guru and The Mystery Guest. Let's breakdown the playoffs...
Matchup of the Week
6) Church Vans v 3) Gruden's Emails
Church Vans had the perfect recipe for them to win: Both TE's had huge weeks and almost singlehandedly won the matchup by themselves. They needed to have a big week and they provided the big points needed to pull off the upset. Not only that, but Gruden had to have a rough week in the support players - Mixon and Jacobs both struggled and J. Fields ended up being a top performer for the team.... definitely not what was needed in a crucial 1st round matchup. This is the break's of not getting the top spot and getting to play The J-Bones (72 points this week). Some may even say that the divisional winners shouldn't get 1st and 2nd seeds - I say, take that up with the NFL.
Prediction: Church Vans... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Gruden's Emails... WRONG!!
1) Hoosier Daddy v 8) The J-Bones
When it really comes down to it - this was actually a pretty sad week for fantasy football. Outside of the TE's and Jonathan Taylor there was no one that really stood out. Which also means that Allen and Diggs combining for 34.3 points was still considered a decent scoring week. It was just a case of consistency throughout one lineup and a really bad week in the other lineup. Hoosier Daddy could have been beaten this week, but The J-Bones had a terrible fantasy football week. Will this be the only week that Hoosier Daddy lets their guard down?!?
Prediction: Hoosier Daddy... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: The J-Bones... WRONG!!
2) Country Roads v 6) PEN15 Wrinkle
Nothing to see here.... just move along to the next matchup.
Prediction: Country Roads.... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Country Roads.... RIGHT!!
5) Bluffton Backup Backups v 4) Hernandez Hit Men
Annnnddddd this is when things get a little crazy... who would have guessed that Brandin Cooks has the week that he had - NOT THIS GUY. BBB continues to put up large amounts of points in the latter part of the season and into the playoffs. This is a huge boost into next week - where he will face Hoosier Daddy in an all tech department battle. Will BBB continue this hot streak and take down another giant? As for HHM, it is a disappointing ending for a terrific season. It ended up being injuries that took down the squad and left HHM scrambling. Oh well, at least you got to enjoy one dance!
Prediction: Hernandez Hit Men... WRONG!!
Mystery Guest: Hernandez Hit Men... WRONG!!
Season: 56-46
Mystery Guest: 48-54
I do believe that this mathematically clinches the victory on the season predictions against the Mystery Guest... The Guru wins again!!!
With Love,
Commish
