Pats really need to use James White less on passing plays. The guy's dropped four would be first down on third down passes in the last two games.

I don't think the answer is as simple as Eli is just detirating just due to time.  Just last year, Eli was top 5 in both TD's and passing yards and statsically had one of his best seasons ever. This year Eli is clearly having a tough time adjusting to the changes. Maybe its due to all the new offensive players? Maybe it has to do with overall new managment? I dont know, but I dont think this year is an indication of a trend for Eli. This year has just highlighted how bad he has performed compared to last year. Similiary, Cam has played horribly compared to just last year, his MVP season, and this year he has more offensive weapons with Kelvin Benjamin back from injury. These QB's need time adjusting.

Imo I think the Giants should start looking for a QB either this year or next year no matter the outcome of this seasons post season performance. Im in favor of grooming a QB for a few years before throwing them on the field.

Even if they somehow win the Super Bowl, the Giants should draft a QB.  Eli Manning will be 36 next month.  I like what New England has done with Jimmy Garoppolo, who I believe is the real deal.  He's been developing for a few years without pressure, ready to step in when Brady retires.

At this point, I think it's more likely that Jacoby Brissett replaces Brady than Garoppolo (barring an earlier than expected retirement). Garoppolo is a free agent after 2017, and you can bet he'll be getting a sizeable contract offer from one of the many teams desperate for a decent QB (barring a much earlier than expected retirement for Brady). New England will probably trade him this offseason, and he'll probably wind up like Matt Cassel/Brock Osweiler.

The Pats are still letting Cyrus Jones return punts...



Wow this week might be my worse one yet. Not looking good for a decent amount of my picks... Oh well some of these games can still turn out okay for me.

...aaannnddd there go the Titans' playoff hopes.



DA. BROWNS.



           Survivor Millennial vs Gen X!!

I'd be ashamed if I was a Chargers fan right now



Awww, but those Browns fans were going to have an 0-16 parade for their perfect season :( Grinch Chargers lol.



I left a lot of points on the bench so far in Fantasy :/ Knew I shouldn't of started Julio Jones and then LeVeon Bell has a terrible match up tomorrow so I'm basically relying on Dez and Dan Bailey to have good games to bail me out xD
