Regular Season Week 13
I can’t
believe that this weekend is December. 2018 flew by, as did this football
season. We are in lucky week 13. There are no more byes now so you’ll have a
chance to see 16 games each week till the end of the regular season. The Giants
lost this past weekend, as they probably will again this Sunday but I did win
in fantasy this week and I did really well on my picks, 12-3!!! I
hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you are not still eating
leftovers.
Let’s
recap week twelve.
Bears @
Lions 23-16
The
Bears didn’t seem to need Mitch Trubisky, who was out with a sore shoulder on Thanksgiving,
Chase Daniel was able to lead Chicago to victory and just like so many other Thanksgivings
the Lions lost yet another game.
Redskins
@ Cowboys 23-31
Amari
Cooper went off scoring two touchdowns, one of them 90 yards, in Dallas’
victory over the Redskins. Of course my opponent in fantasy would have Cooper.
Smh. Dallas usually wins on Thanksgiving.
Falcons
@ Saints 17-31
This
game was actually closer than I expected it to be. Drew Brees had four touchdowns,
which is pretty normal for him as of late. The Saints have won 10 in a row and
officially eliminated the Falcons from playoff contention with this win. Happy
Thanksgiving Falcons fans…
Jaguars
@ Bills 21-24
The big
topic of conversation for this game was the touchdown-not-touchdown that turned
into a massive fight leading to the ejection of Leonard Fournette of the Jags
and Shaq Lawson of the Bills. Fournette had already scored two touchdowns
before his ejection and the Jags might have won the game if he hadn’t lost his
cool and been able to finish the game. Bills QB Josh Allen took advantage of
the situation by leading the team to victory in the fourth quarter.
Browns
@ Bengals 35-20
The
Bengals have really fallen apart. Andy Dalton left the game and was later
placed on IR for a thumb injury. The Browns, on the other hand, had a stellar
game. Baker Mayfield had four touchdowns and went 19-26 on completions. The
Browns were reunited with former head coach Hue Jackson as he’s now one of the
coaches for the Bengals. Can we say awkward turtle.
Patriots
@ Jets 27-13
In a
desperate attempt to actually win one week in fantasy I picked up the Patriots
defense. It paid off and for the first time in three weeks my defense didn’t
give me negative points. The Patriots did what the Patriots do and dominated
the Jets. Poor Jets. So glad I didn’t start the Jets defense…
NY
Giants @ Eagles 22-25
The Giants
won the first half, the Eagles won the second half, and once again it came down
to a field goal at the end of the game to put the Eagles on top. I don’t think
Pat Shurmer is a good head coach. Like I said the Giants controlled the first
half and scored on consecutive drives, never punting. Saquan Barkley was a
beast and had two touchdowns. Then the second half started and Saquan wasn’t
even in a couple of series. Pathetic coaching. You don’t “fix” what isn’t
broken.
49ers @
Buccaneers 9-27
Jamis Winston
started this game for the Bucs and coincidently got them the win. I think the
Bucs are going with the two quarterback method, trading Winston and Fitzpatrick
back and forth to see who has less interceptions. Winston should get the start
next week as he didn’t have as many interceptions as Fitzpatrick had the week
before.
Seahawks
@ Panthers 30-27
Panthers
fans thought they had the win until their kicker, Graham Gano, missed a 52 yard
field goal which set up a short drive for the Seahawks to go down, make a 31
yard field goal of their own, and win the game. It’s been a tough year for
kickers.
Raiders
@ Ravens 17-34
The
Raiders actually led the game in the first quarter until the Ravens defense
woke up. It was pretty slow going for the Raiders after that and much more
typical. Ray Lewis will be happy with the Ravens defense this game.
Cardinals
@ Chargers 10-45
The
Chargers sure did shake off last week’s loss as they annihilated the Cardinals.
Steelers
@ Broncos 17-24
This
game was great fun to watch, especially if you are not a Steelers fan. It was
nice to see them lose for a change, even though the best play of the game was a
faked field goal from Boswell that he threw for a touchdown. Unfortunately, in
my stupid fantasy league Boswell didn’t get credit for the touchdown rather a
missed field goal. I am so glad I dropped Boswell weeks ago. I might have to
drop this fantasy league next season too.
Dolphins
@ Colts 24-27
The
Colts have won five in a row now despite Andrew Luck’s two interceptions during
this game. It was Colts Adam Vinatieri who kicked the game winning field goal
as time expired to give Indianapolis the win.
Packers
@ Vikings 17-24
This was another fun game to watch, especially because I
started Kirk Cousins as my QB this week in fantasy. Cousins didn’t disappoint
but I’m sure Packer fans, as well as Aaron Rodgers, are really disappointed
with this season. The Packers never seemed to be able to get things going
during this game.
Titans @ Texans
I’m also glad that I didn’t start the Titans defense this
week. The Texans seemed to walk all over the Titans offensively and defensively.
A rather entertaining game to watch and I finally got a win in fantasy thanks
to DeAndre Hopkins and Ka’imi Faibairn.
WEEK 13
Thursday,
November 29th
Saints
[10-1] @ Cowboys [6-5] (8:20pm FOX/NFLN)
I’m
pretty sure that the Saints will win this game. I will be shocked and amazed
otherwise. I’m picking the Saints.
Sunday,
December 2nd
Ravens
[6-5] @ Falcons [4-7] (1pm CBS)
I’m
picking the Ravens to win this game even though they have trouble on the road;
the Falcons have just as much trouble at home.
Broncos
[5-6] @ Bengals [5-6] (1pm CBS)
I don’t
think that the Bengals have a chance without Andy Dalton. I’m picking the
Broncos to win this game.
Rams
[10-1] @ Lions [4-7] (1pm FOX)
I’m
picking the Rams to win this game. They should be fresh off their bye and ready
to go.
Cardinals
[2-9] @ Packers [4-6-1] (1pm FOX)
I’m
picking the Packers to win this game. They haven’t had a good win in awhile so
the Cardinals should boost their spirits.
Bills
[4-7] @ Dolphins [5-6] (1pm CBS)
I’m
picking the Dolphins to win this game depending on which Bills team shows up.
The Bills won last week so they probably won’t win this week.
Bears
[8-3] @ Giants [3-8] (1pm FOX)
Yikes.
Sorry Gmen I’m picking the Bears to win this game. I’ll be rooting for the
Giants and also thankful that I don’t have to work on Sunday so I can watch the
game at home. Football Shenoa shouldn’t be in public during this game, I
imagine it’ll be ugly; the game and Football Shenoa. I think it’s time to get
the knitting needles out.
Panthers
[6-5] @ Buccaneers [4-7] (1pm FOX)
I’m
picking the Panthers to win this game even though they are 1-4 on the road and
the Bucs are 3-2 at home. I think the Panthers are going to bounce back from
their loss to the Seahawks. Gano will probably kick the game winning field
goal.
Colts
[6-5] @ Jaguars [3-8] (1pm CBS)
I’m
going to pick the Colts to win this game especially because Leonard Fournette
has been suspended one game after the fight in Buffalo.
Browns
[4-6-1] @ Texans [7-3] (1pm CBS)
I’m
going to pick the Texans to win this game but I imagine it’ll be a fun close
game to watch.
Jets
[3-8] @ Titans [5-5] (4:05pm CBS)
I’m
going with the Titans this week against the Jets. I have both defenses but I
think I’m going to bench them both…
Chiefs
[9-2] @ Raiders [2-9] (4:05pm CBS)
The
Chiefs are also fresh off their bye so I will be picking them to win this game.
I would be picking them regardless; I mean they are playing the Raiders.
Vikings
[6-4-1] @ Patriots [8-3] (4:25pm FOX)
The
Vikings just might upset the Pats at home, and that would be awesome. That
being said I’m going to pick the Patriots to win.
49ers
[2-9] @ Seahawks [6-5] (4:25pm FOX)
I’m
picking the Seahawks to win this game. I’m starting Seattle’s defense and I
really hope they don’t let me down.
Chargers
[8-3] @ Steelers [7-3-1] (8:20pm NBC)
The Steelers are pretty unhappy about losing to the Broncos.
I hope they lose two in a row. I think that the Chargers can win this game but
I’m going to pick the Steelers to win.
Monday,
December 3rd
Redskins
[6-5] @ Eagles [5-6] (8:15pm ESPN)
With
Alex Smith in I would pick the Redskins, but because he is out for the rest of
the season I’m going to have to pick the Eagles to win this game.
GO
GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
for the edit Eric!
