Week 15

kranepool · Post by **kranepool** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 11:43 am

Good luck to everyone in the ff playoffs today.

I'm going batshit crazy in a standard scoring league trying to select my last RB between:

L. Bell v. CIN
S. Vereen @ MIA
(I also have R. Jennings, M. Reece, and D. Thomas)

and my last WR:

V. Jackson v. SF
B. Hartline v. NE
C. Patterson v. PHI

Leaning toward Vereen and Hartline.

Bills/Jaguars has all the markings of a 9-3 game.

I started Decker and Moreno, so fuck today.

I really don't want to watch the Steelers fart away another game. And I really don't want to have to stay up until midnight to watch the Steelers fart away another game.

Considering AP and Gerhart are out for Minnesota, I'd go with Patterson. Dude might get 20 touches today.

Luck is setting up another unnecessary late game comeback.

Gunpowder · Post by **Gunpowder** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 1:39 pm

Patterson allllmost made you look good. Dropped TD but Cassel should have located that better.

Damn it Foles, I have the over. Just get in that guy's way!

3 calendar months since the last time the texans have gotten a win. what a miserable clusterfuck of a season. and yet, here i am, another sunday, and we are down 7 in a stadium we've never won in. fuck i hate this shit.

If Cutler keeps throwing picks it'll be an interesting Monday in Chicago sports media.

kranepool · Post by **kranepool** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 2:11 pm

Nearing the half, Patterson (2) + Vereen (-2) = 0 points.

I rule.

At least the prize for tanking all year is Teddy Bridgewater.

One awful year worked wonders for Indianapolis.

Bob Holtzman said an unnamed Bears' player told him Cutler threw a lot of picks in practice this week (while McCown apparently had not been doing that during the last month) and the defensive players were getting really frustrated with things.

I think it's gonna be interesting anyway since he had two picks and got lucky Alshon Jeffery may be Mini-Megatron.

God God, the Browns are terrible.

Post by **brian** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 4:57 pm

I hit the first 8 games on one of my casino cards. (First prize each week is $10,000 and it generally takes a perfect card to win.). I need the Titans, Rams, Packers, Panthers and Chiefs in the late games today (then the Steelers and Lions). If I somehow hit the last 6 games today, I might be in a position to have to bet four figures AGAINST the Lions as a hedge.)

(All users with a perfect card are guaranteed at least $1,500 if you don't win the first place (MNF Total) tiebreaker.)

For the third time in history, the Oakland Raiders allow one dude to score five touchdowns on 'em.
Abner Haynes, Dallas Texans (team that became the Chefs), 1961
Kellen Winslow Sr., Chargers, 1981
Jamal Charles, Chefs, 2013.

Guess they were overdue.

No other team has been punked in this fashion more than once.

This is the game that finally kills this cowboys regime? another awful 2nd half.

They continue to abandon the run. It's like running for 5 yards on 1st down is a disease.

howard · Post by **howard** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 7:41 pm

A final interception from Romo, which should be clear on the review, for the capper.

Post by **brian** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 8:00 pm

Yep, maybe the Cowboys can hire Mack Brown.

degenerasian · Post by **degenerasian** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 8:08 pm

So predictable. When Lacey made that run to open the 2nd half I put a little sprinkle on GB at 21 to 1. Then as the half went on I sprinkled a bit more as the odds went down.

I was a bit gunshy but still made 700. I could have made a million.

Did Al Michaels just confuse the Bengals punter for a flag? "There is a flag down. Now, wait, It's Kevin Huber."

degenerasian · Post by **degenerasian** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 9:19 pm

He must have thought it was CFL.

CFL has man-sized flags?

Yup and they're orange.

sancarlos · Post by **sancarlos** » Sun Dec 15, 2013 9:36 pm

Long night for that punter. First, the mishandled snap leading to a TD. Then the punt return for a TD. And, not least, the crushing block he absorbed on that return.

Have you ever heard Joe Buck that critical? And he was absolutely right in his wailing about the Cowboys' play calling.

Not since Randy Moss mooned the Cheeseheads.

Lost to Stau in the Swamp Dynasty League by .18 points in the semifinals. Would have rather lost by 180.

You may have heard that Peyton was named SI Sportsman of the Year. Apparently the guy who wrote the wiki entry on it is not impressed by Peyton's accomplishments.

am i reading your card right, did you have a perfect card? Very impressive sir. Very impressive

If they could have given out negative points the Giants would have qualified.

Typed this in a gchat last week:

QB Matt Cassel
RB Donald Brown
RB Daniel Thomas (subject to change)
WR DaRick Rogers
WR Cordarelle Patterson
TE Delanie Walker
FLEX Ace Sanders
Def JAX
K Blair Walsh
what is that, you ask?
A team completely comprised of free agents that could probably beat Tom's team

Because Tom is a guy who's team f-in' blows.

Well, not only did they score 106 and beat Tom's team, they beat my team as well! I would have been better off cutting my entire team and replacing them with scrubs. I gave up on them after they lost in last week's playoffs, but still, that's cray.

Catch the fever!

So, three Megatron scores, two of the 50+ variety, plus about 200 yards receiving puts me in the championship game.

Yes, I was going against Charles.

I was cruising towards the Championship game until Charles went off. Charles scored 55 points in my league, and I still only lost by 8. Unbelievable.

I'm down by 20, with Stafford left to play vs. the Ravens D/ST. ESPN predicts I'll lose by 2.
