My rankings are hastily assembled and only feature players I’ve had “time” to watch. So, if you are wondering, “hey where the f is Sergio Beefweasel on your WR list”, well, I didn’t get a chance to watch anything on Sergio Beefweasel so he’s not on the list. I may look at him later and think he’s awesome.
For starters, none of these teams that San Francisco has squeaked by in recent weeks have anything approaching Kansas City’s defense.
So it turns out that I am not “Playoff Toby”, but rather “Layoff Toby”, as I am likely to be laid off following the disastrous week I just had. Managed a perfect 0-4 last week. It’s almost impressive how bad my predictions were.
Well what do you know, looks like “Big Game” Wreathway showed up for the playoffs.
Of course I had one more losing week in me, as my week 16 picks went 7-8-1 and closed out my terrible season. At least my top games went 2-1-1, with the only loss being the game I called an absolute surefire lock. I couldn’t tell a betting lock from Drew Lock at this point, so don’t listen to me.
My ATS picks are extremely flawed. A huge disclaimer I must legally place here before my picks: don’t listen to me. Please. Please do not do what I suggest that you do. Do the opposite. You’ll be able to retire fading my NFC South picks. I am the worst NFC South prognosticator around.
Surprisingly, I like a lot of the matchups this week, which will obviously get me back on the plus-side of .500. Got to stay above the Wreathway Line.
This team keeps trotting Desmond Ridder out there for whatever reason as if he’s ever going to be a legitimate NFL option and until both him and Artie Smith are gone, Falcons games should only be televised on Cinemax after dark. My kink is endless punts.
I like the way last week worked out so I’m going to switch this column to that format, at least until I go 4-12 again. This is the last week with byes, as the NFL seems to be determined to use the weirdest possible convention for their bye format.
