2021 NFL Pick ‘Em Week 9 & Fantasy Football Week 8

Jon had a nice run, but it is time for the real geniuses to take their place at the top. Adam was the best last week with ten and I was next with nine. Jon only picked six, yikes. As it stands, Adam is in first place, but I am only one behind. From there it goes Jon, Mom, Gideon, Sean, Jason, James, Lindsey, and Scott. 

Underdog Special: Tennessee Titans (+7.5)
I hate this week! Initially I was going to take the Giants, but the COVID outbreak has me nervous about them. The Titans do not have Derrick Henry, but they still have a good offense and I think they can stay within a touchdown of the Rams. I was smart taking the Packers last week, trust in my skills.
Underdog Record: 6-2 (+$51.85)

Steelers Pick: Got it right last week. This week, I think the Steelers win, but it will be like the Browns, low scoring and the final score will be closer than the game will feel. 14-9 or something like that. 
Steelers Pick Record: 4-3

STANDINGS

  1. Bishop Sycamore (Adam) 8-0–could the Denver defense suffer because of the Von Miller trade? Is that this team’s only worry at the moment???
  2. The Mega Powers (BatmanJason) 6-2–he lost, but damn picking up Cooper Rush over Tua was a wise move.
  3. WranglerJeanShorts (Seth) 6-2–Randall Cobb scoring touchdowns like it was 2014.
  4. LIME TIME! LIME TIME!! (Dustin) 5-3–possibly the worst day imaginable for Dustin. Yikes.
  5. My Knees are Solar-powered (Bill) 5-3–big points from Jimmy G, I wonder if Bill regrets trading Fournette?
  6. Peppa Pigskin (Lindsey) 4-4–her team always seems to score a bunch of points from like 3 or 4 players, then gets almost nothing from everyone else.
  7. classy like FoxNews (Jason) 4-4–at least he has Tom Brady and good running backs.
  8. The Dirty Punts (Heidi) 4-4–a win is a win, she is just fortunate that her opponent had a terrible week.
  9. Game…Blouses (Josh) 3-5–if I somehow make the playoffs with my awful team…well I don’t know, I will laugh.
  10. 50 Shades of Jay (Jarrod) 3-5–I offered Jarrod a few trades and either he did not like them, or he has given up.
  11. Feast or Famine (Gideon) 3-5–I cannot imagine Gideon enjoyed losing to my shitty team. Sorry!
  12. A cooler name (Scott) 2-6–A.J. Brown with a big game, but it was not enough for Scott.
  13. Josh is a Gurley man (Ryan) 2-6–I believe Ryan wants to wear the shirt…
  14. Hamilton’s Privateer (John) 1-7–but he will need to fight John for that honor.
