Last week: 29 (+0) Record: 1-4 The people who said that Adrian Peterson should not have been playing this week are the worst kind of people. I preemptively tweeted this after Peterson’s 2-year-old was tragically murdered by some psychopath, “If Adrian Peterson plays this weekend, everyone should be fine with…

Last week: 30 (+0) Record: 2-4 The Raiders faced a 4th and 48 in their loss to the Chiefs this week, which is, unofficially I believe, an NFL record. It was so bad that even a solid punt, 46 yards, didn’t reach the chains. Negative plays were a theme of…

Last week: 31 (+0) Record: 0-5 Mike Glennon looked better in his second NFL start, completing 26 of 43 for 273 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception, but remember he had 2 weeks to prepare for this one and he was facing arguably the worst defense in the NFL in…

Continue reading →: Jacksonville Jaguars: 2013 Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#32)
Last week: 32 (+0) Record: 0-6 The Jaguars are awful, but it’s way too early to start thinking about 0-16 for them, just like it’s way too soon to start thinking about 16-0 for Denver. As we’ve seen in recent years with teams like the 2007 Dolphins or the 2010…

RB Zac Stacy (Vanderbilt) Percent owned (ESPN): 6.7% Zac Stacy has taken over the lead back job and has rushed for 157 yards on 32 carries in 2 games, while adding another 2 catches for 11 yards. He’ll continue being the starter going forward and he should be owned universally.…

Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles at Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 2013 Week 6 NFL Pick
Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-4) This is another one I could really go both ways on. On one hand, the Eagles don’t deserve to be favorites here. Much has been made about all the problems the Buccaneers have, from Josh Freeman, to Greg Schiano, to MRSA, but…

Continue reading →: Detroit Lions at Cleveland Browns: 2013 Week 6 NFL Pick
Detroit Lions (3-2) at Cleveland Browns (3-2) I don’t know how this game can have a line. Calvin Johnson is a game time decision and yet this line has been at about -2.5 or -3 in favor of Detroit all week. The Lions’ offense looked miserable without Johnson last week,…

Arizona Cardinals (3-2) at San Francisco 49ers (3-2) Remember when everyone freaked out just because the 49ers lost 2 of 3 games. Good times. Losing 2 of 3 games isn’t a big deal. It’s just more noticeable at the start of the season. They’ve won the last two games by…

Continue reading →: Oakland Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs: Week 6 NFL Pick
Oakland Raiders (2-3) at Kansas City Chiefs (5-0) Before the season, the Raiders were expected to be an all-time bad team. That hasn’t happened, as they are 2-3 right now and credit Reggie McKenzie and Dennis Allen for building a passable team despite over 50 million in dead money on…
