Sean picked eleven correctly last week, which almost put him on HOF list. Adam & Jon both had ten, while I only picked eight. Yikes. Adam is now two ahead of me, while Jon is two behind me (I hope you can do the math to figure out how far back Jon is from first place).
Underdog Special: Pittsburgh Steelers (+4.5)
Ewww, screw you Las Vegas! I should have taken them this week. Whatever. I was not sure on that one, so I only took them for $3, haha. I think the Steelers can beat the Bengals, or at the very least, keep it to within a field goal.
Underdog Record: 8-3 (+$64.13)
Steelers Pick: As I said above, I think the Steelers can cover the 4.5 and I think they will actually win the game. The Steelers were able to score against the Chargers and the defense, even being as depleted as it was, ended up making some stops in the second half. I just do not think the Bengals offense is quite as dynamic as the Chargers. Make sense?
Steelers Pick Record: 7-3
STANDINGS
- Bishop Sycamore (Adam) 10-1–he bounced back from that loss to Jason.
- WranglerJeanShorts (Seth) 9-2–he beat his opponent with just Taylor and Rodgers.
- The Mega Powers (BatmanJason) 7-4–happy birthday! Dak’s present to ya was 13 points, haha.
- classy like FoxNews (Jason) 7-4–looked like his season was about to fall apart, but Jason has rebounded.
- Peppa Pigskin (Lindsey) 6-5–her team is in fifth place with a 6-5 record…wow
- My Knees are Solar-powered (Bill) 6-5–why did I trade Justin Herbert????
- Injured List All-Stars (Dustin) 6-5–rough going for Dustin, as his name change shows
- The Dirty Punts (Heidi) 5-6–Matt Ryan scored 9 points, yikes
- Game…Blouses (Josh) 4-7–imagine if I had Herbert? Ugh, I am an idiot.
- Feast or Famine (Gideon) 4-7–the Buffalo defense -8.00…not good at all. Especially when his opponent had the Colts defense, which scored 12.00, so that is a 20 point swing just in defense. Hard to win that way.
- 50 Shades of Jay (Jarrod) 4-7–sadly, all of us losers at 4-7 are still in the playoff hunt.
- A cooler name (Scott) 3-8–I needed help from Scott, his win over Heidi keeps me (and the other 4-7 losers) alive.
- Josh is a Gurley man (Ryan) 3-8–zero points from two different players…is this Ryan’s worst fantasy sports performance ever?
- Hamilton’s Privateer (John) 3-8–I can’t make fun of John, he beat me. I hate life.
This week I take on Scott, while Lindsey faces Heidi. A win for me and a loss for Heidi, would move me into 8th place.
