It is time for the PLAYOFF PREDICTIONS:
1. Watson's Happy Ending - 100%
- With only 4 weeks remaining, Happy has locked up at worst an 8-6 record... good for the playoffs.
2. Hoosier Daddy - 95%
- Hoosier Daddy is one of the many teams sitting at 6-4, but they have enough points to win most ties.
3. ETN out your Grandma - 95%
- ETN is currently tied at the top of their division, but is 5th in points for - gonna make it barring a tragic end to the season.
4. Gruden Email Editor - 85%
- Email is one of three teams tied for the lead in their division, they are in the same position as ETN.
5. Ayahuasca Dreamer - 80%
- Same as ETN and Email... just not as many points as them.
6. Side Set TDs - 80%
- The same record (6-4) as 2-5, should make the playoffs barring a tragic ending to the season.
7. The J-Bones - 70%
- They should make the playoffs, they are 3rd in points... and hold the tie-breaker over virtually anybody they would tie for a spot in the playoffs.
8. OBJs in the Stands - 55%
- As it stands, they are in - but there are 3 teams tied at 5-5 and 3 other teams within striking distance... they need wins!
9. Not Big Red - 45%
- They are one of the 3 teams tied at 5-5, but they have to play OBJ and ETN... it could a tough end to the season.
10. Bluffton Backup Backups - 35%
- BBB had a huge win last week - which helps their cause, but let's be honest - it is not looking so good from here on down.
11. Aaron Rodger Blows Llams - 30%
- After making a big trade, they will need a spark to get there... if they do, they could have a squad strong enough to knock off one the top teams!
12. The Cochness Monsters - 20%
- They need to win out and have some help from a few other teams, not looking to good for the cocks!
13. PEN15 Wrinkle - 5%
- Yay.... it ain't happening.
14. Ankle Holster - 1%
- At this point, just try not to get last!
Matchup of the Week
The J-Bones (5-5) v Ankle Holster (2-8)
I will be real honest, there are a lot of better teams in matchups - but this matchup could mathematically eliminate our first team from playoff contention. Either Ankle Holster is completing out of it or they really hurt The J-Bones chances of making the playoffs. We all know where this pick is leaning... The J-Bones are tough squad when both the stallions (Barkley/Ekeler) are in the stable! Ekeler scored 13.3 points last week. The last time that happened? He scored 34.9 points the following week... could be the final nail in the coffin for Ankle Holster!
Prediction: The J-Bones
Mystery Guest: Ankle Holster
The Cochness Monsters (3-7) v Watson's Happy Ending (8-2)
Obviously this pick should lean one way... but there is something special in the air. Herbert is going to be involved in a shootout against KC, McCaffrey and Jacobs are in line for huge weeks against weaker defenses, Allen Robinson should see an uptick in targets with Kupp going down. If Carolina can play keep away from Jackson and Andrews... this could be the week that TCM needs to jumpstart this late season push for the playoffs. The only problem with that, Foreman is the man that needs to do most of the work to play keep away and Happy Ending has him as well. Either way, TCM needs a big week and they are going to get it!
Prediction: The Cochness Monsters
Mystery Guest: Watson Happy Ending
Side Set TD's (6-4) v OBJs in the Stands** (5-5)
This is a matchup between two teams that find themselves right by the cut line of the playoffs odds. As it stands, both teams should make the playoffs - but one team is going to drop after this week. Judging by the bye weeks and the amount of starters that OBJs has to replace - it could be tough sledding. It is never a good thing when you are starting two Green Bay wide receivers this season. Watson may have scored 30+ points last week, but every other week he struggled to break 10 points and is actually averaging below 5 points. On the flip side, if Adams doesn't play Side Set TD's is in trouble. My bet, he plays and Titties gets a huge win sending OBJs spiraling downward.
Prediction: Side Set TDs
Mystery Guest: OBJs in the Stands
Bluffton Backup Backups (5-5) v ETN out your Grandma** (6-4)
One week after winning the belt in thrilling fashion, ETN now faces BBB - a famed Douche Goof that somehow finds themselves in the winners circle as often as the losers circle. To be fair, three of BBB wins came against the other three Douche Goofs... but a win is a win. It is interesting to note that BBB will be rooting on the Colts (the one team they follow) knowing full well that one player that could explode is the player he is facing against in fantasy football. ETN will be attempting to go back-to-back winning the belt and if Taylor has a good week.... it could happen.
Prediction: ETN out your Grandma

Hoosier Daddy?** (6-4) v Gruden Email Editor* (6-4)
All things considered, this is probably the actual MotW. Two 6-4 teams battling it out, one winner almost guaranteed a spot in the playoffs... the loser left fighting for a spot near the cut line. You know who I wouldn't want to play this week? Hoosier Daddy. Hurts was just dealt his first loss of the season and there is good chance he is going to really give it to Indy. I mean straight "Power Move" give it them. Kelce is in the shootout game and they even have the Commanders defense going against Houston. Who would have thought that you could trade away one the top WR in the league and your lineup actually gets better? Hoosier Daddy made a move that officially puts the league on watch and thrusts them into the "team to beat" category.
Prediction: Hoosier Daddy?
Mystery Guest: Hoosier Daddy?
PEN15 Wrinkle (3-7) v Ayahuasca Dreamer (6-4)
The irony of these two teams, is that fact that I was never super impressed by either team throughout the entire season. One team said, "Screw you!" and started winning matchups - the other? PEN15 is terrible. The one saving grace of PEN15 is that Mahomes is really good at football. Other than that, Dreamer has a much more consistent team. Throughout the lineup there player after player that has the potential to score big points. I will not the interesting decision to play both Detroit running backs. When is the last time anyone can say that? Someone is starting two Detroit running backs?!?!? Either way, it should work and Dreamer is looking to vault themselves firmly into the playoffs.
Prediction: Ayahuasca Dreamer

Not Big Red* (5-5) v Aaron Rodgers Blows Llams (4-6)
When things aren't going well, what do you do? You switch up the mojo. ARBL did just that - swanging a trade with none other than Hoosier Daddy. Justin Jefferson is a huge pickup and honestly, might be the best receiver in the NFL as we speak. Will he be enough to take down NBR? As good as JJ is, this matchup really depends on if Everett and Williams play. If they play, NBR has an advantage.... if they don't? It is anyone's ball game. I am predicting that they do play and NBR wins - but ARBL has a team that is scary if they make the playoffs.
Prediction: Not Big Red
Mystery Guest: Not Big Red
As always, I wish everyone good luck - except for you Watson's Happy Ending, may your entire team burn in a fiery helicopter crash eerily similar to the one that took down Kobe!
With Love,
Commish
