Well the Lions mailed it in when they got rid of Golden Tate which didn't help the Eagles either both teams will end up with a bad season.

It's not like the Chargers where terrible when they left San Diego they where 5-11 and trending upward.   The last time they where actually terrible was during the 2000 season when they where 1-15. 

Not every week that SEA and NE lose to SF and PIT at the same time. Pretty good week, and 2 picks that I am glad to get wrong. I suppose PITs desire for a playoff spot is stronger than NEs desire for a bye.

Christ sake's this Patriots team is absolutely pathetic. Awful play calling, 104 yards in penalties, horrific pass protection, receivers dropping like ten different passes, and Brady just deciding that throwing catchable balls wasn't necessary on the final drive. Defense fucking decided to not play last week only for the offense to do the same thing this week. As soon as this team has to play on the road in the playoffs they're done.

As a Lions fan I don't think they mailed it in with the Tate trade. Don't get me wrong, Tate was a consistent performer and a legit No 1 receiver on a week to week basis BUT they had an emerging Kenny Golladay (dude's a beast) and Marvin Jones on the outside. I think they felt that TJ Jones would perform better than he has as a WR3 so they let Tate go early and at least got something from it. Unfortunately, not only has TJ Jones been a huge disappointment but they lost Marvin Jones to injury and then they lost Kerryon who was having a great rookie year on the ground. So instead of going from 4 big offensive threats to 3 and 1 competent one they went from 4 big threats to 1 and a bunch of scrubs (except maybe Theo Riddick). Also their O Line has been shit since Lang went down so Stafford gets half a second before he's smashed into the dirt. There was seriously like 5 plays where a Bills defender was in the backfield before Stafford could even hand off the ball for a running play!

Rant over lol

Well finals are over. Unfortunately for me, my suffering does not end as this weekend was terrible to me in both NFL, fantasy football, and predictions. Hopefully I haven't failed my stats class and increased my suffering.

With that said this week was too depressing to remember so I'm skipping the results. Onto the overall standings.

Not too much has changed in the past two week (last time I posted an update). It's going to be a tight race towards the end; the Top 6 is all within 5 games. Those at the bottom end of that (read: burninmylight, Rol, and myself) probably start need to picking some upsets if we want to make a serious run at winning this thing. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your point of view) this week presents a number of games that could go either way.

The first two games of the week take place on Saturday. There are no Thursday games this week.

Good luck this week, and remember, fuck the Jets.
