Regular Season Week 5

This past weekend my brother and his family were visiting from Germany. Needless to say, I did not watch a lot of football. I did, however, give my nephews a NY Giants football and watched part of the Giants game with my youngest nephew. (You’ve got to start them young, before they know what disappointment is.) I went 10-6 on my picks last week, and I am 3-1 and 2-2 in my fantasy leagues.

Let’s recap week four.

Bears @ Packers 14-35

I mean, this win shouldn’t have come as a surprise.

Saints @ Dolphins 20-0

Neither team looked good, even though the score says differently.

Bills @ Falcons 23-17

Holy upset batman! And the Bills have a better record than the Patriots!

Panthers @ Patriots 33-30

Speaking of the Patriots, two losses at HOME this season, and it’s only week 4…

Panthers, it was nice of you to show up and actually play this game.

Bengals @ Browns 31-7

I’ve learned my lesson, I’m no longer picking the Browns to win.

Rams @ Cowboys 35-30

YAY BUMBLEBEES!!! I mean, Rams!!!!! I got this pick wrong and am totally ok with it.

Lions @ Vikings 14-7

The Lions defense showed up and showed out, I guess that old saying is true, defenses win games.

Jaguars @ Jets 20-23 OT

It kills me that the Jets have a better record than the Giants. This win came in overtime with just 28 seconds to go.

Steelers @ Ravens 26-9

I somehow knew that the Ravens weren’t going to bounce back after their loss across the pond. I’m glad I have Bell on my fantasy team, as he had 2 touchdowns this game!  

Titans @ Texans 14-57

Cam played so bad last week that I benched him and started Deshaun Watson at QB and boy am I glad I did!!!!! FIVE TOUCHDOWNS!!!!! Sorry Titans fans.

49ers @ Cardinals 15-18 OT

The Cardinals are terrible this year! It took them overtime to beat the even more terrible 49ers.

NY Giants @ Buccaneers 23-25

Thankfully my family was in town so I wasn’t able to watch this game in its entirety. I did see Eli rush for a touchdown, and that was pretty awesome. Even more awesome was “watching the game” with my 8 month old nephew. We cheered for a first down and a three and out. I didn’t bother explaining false hopes for a win, I mean, he’s just a baby, let him be happy for a few more years.

Eagles @ Chargers 26-24

It was a close game; I was rooting for the Chargers, oh well.

Raiders @ Broncos 10-16

The Raiders QB literally broke his back during this game.  Talk about a tough Denver defense.

Colts @ Seahawks 18-46

I feel like there was a flag on every play and the red challenge flag seemed to be thrown a dozen times. The game was terrible and looked as bad as the final score.

Redskins @ Chiefs 20-29

I’m just glad the Redskins didn’t win and Travis Kelsey didn’t score a lot. Kelsey was on my opponent’s team in fantasy. My favorite play was the last play of the game; Redskins trickery gave the Chiefs defense one last touchdown.
