RuggedRaymontHarris (7-4) 129
Salt & Vinegar Chips (3-8) 118
Overview: Oh. My. God. Yes, I just typed that out because this matchup for me ended up being way closer than it should've been and thanks to my Patriots defense play, I pulled out the win last night. Mike Posey might be 3-8 but his team brought it's A game this past week starting with a startling 17 point peformance from the Broncos against the Jets. Then, every single of his players besides Beanie Wells and Robbie Gould managed to put up double digit points. That included Nate Washington, who had 2 TD's and 23 points. Percy Harvin, Steve Smith, Michael Turner, Antonio Gates, and Carson Palmer, all had nice games, and I really thought it was dead in the water, considering I got 0 points from Greg Jennings. Going into Sunday night's game, I was down 28 points with Hakeem Nicks, LeSean McCoy, and Pats D left. McCoy and Nicks were underwhelming. In fact, if it wasn't for McCoy's last second 60 yard run, he would've been held to single digit points. I was still down 11 with the Patriots D, who have been crappy all year, but kind of turned it around a little and were facing the Chiefs and Tyler Palko, making his first NFL start. The first half was bleh, Pats didn't really do much, but in the 2nd half they shined and ended up with 3 picks, 4 sacks, and a punt return while holding the Chiefs to 3 points. 21 points, and I SURVIVE a big scare with my playoff hopes on the line. For me, Vincent Jackson, Ray Rice, and Tony Romo did the heavy lifting, while even Vernon Davis chipped in with a touchdown. The loss officially eliminates Posey from playoff contention, but kudos to Mike for still being active and playing to role of spoiler. For Kenny and Leland, Mike is a dangerous trap game, trust me. The win moves up to 2nd for now, though it's still far from a guarantee I make the playoffs, it's a better situation than being 6-5 with Albert and Matt left.

Take Dat Wit Chu (6-5) 86
Overview: Well after beating me by 50, Kenny's team comes back down to earth and loses a critical game that also resurrected Leland's playoff chances in the process. Kenny's team is the ultimate up and down team, as his guys are just too wildly inconsistent (outside of Aaron Rodgers and Larry Fitzgerald) to know just what they're going to do. Ryan Mathews was horrible, and DeMarco Murray wasn't bad, he just didn't get enough carries to make a huge impact. Denarius Moore was a huge dud, as was Laurent Robinson (though he did score a TD, he had numerous drops). Fitzgerald had low yardage but scored. Aaron Rodgers and believe it or not Tony Gonzalez were Kenny's best two guys. Matthew Stafford started terrible (2 picks) but ended up being FANTASTIC, throwing 5 TD's and had over 300 passing yards. Roddy White might have not found the end zone but he did have 147 yards. Mike Williams scored his first TD since week 1 while adding 80 yards, and the Jonathan Stewart/Matt Forte tandem was average (though Forte was disappointing with 57 rushing and 26 receiving yards). Rob Gronkowski continues to make a case for best tight end in the league as he ended the night with 96 and two scores. With this win Leland's schedule is pretty friendly (Cindy/Mike) and this could be his gateway in the playoffs. Week 12 becomes a must win for Kenny against Mike because he'll face Albert in week 13 and that is definitely a scary game to end a season on.
Key Players
Matthew Stafford (The_Twin_Killers) 335 yards passing, 5 passing TD's, 2 interceptions, 2 rushing yards, 31 points
Rob Gronkowski (The_Twin_Killers) 96 receiving yards, 2 receiving TD's, 21 points
Aaron Rodgers (Take Dat Wit Chu) 299 passing yards, 3 passing TD's, 1 INT, 28 rushing yards, 24 points

The Bad Robofies (7-4) 89
Channel 4 News Team (7-4) 69
Overview: No Drew Brees? No Problem as Dad's virtual defense held Albert to under 70 points and Dad improves to an amazing 7-4 record. Not only that but Dad swept Albert 2-0 in the season series. Very impressive. Albert was without Arian Foster, and had to use Kendell Hunter who did nothing. Michael Bush continues to pay dividends with 16 points and Victor Cruz was a stud yet again with 128 and a score. Despite a horrible Mark Sanchez game (with Jay Cutler and his 25 points on the bench), and a 0 point David Nelson (after dropping Torrey Smith who had 160 and as score) dad managed to survive yet again and will finish with no less than a winning record. Brandon Lloyd and Jason Witten also managed to chip in TD's. It just wasn't working this week for Albert as Brady was underwhelming (16 points), Calvin was average despite Stafford throwing 5 TD's (none to Calvin). Dez did his usual, 60 and a score before disappearing in the 2nd half. Earl Bennett was ok (had a TD overturned) while the running back tandem of Steven Jackson and Kendell Hunter was pretty bad. Also bad was Jermichael Finley with only 30 receiving yards. Albert's still in good shape for the playoffs but his schedule is tough, with me and Kenny left. Dad actually has a solid chance to grab the 2nd bye if he can get past Matt, he'll face Zach in the last week of the season.

Hoosier Daddy (8-3) 106
Dr. Wily's Robots (5-6) 47
Overview: This was the most shocking outcome of the week. After losing by 82 points, the first time around Ryan turns around and wins by 59, but it's not even the margin that's shocking. One, Ryan did it without Mike Wallace, Rashard Mendenhall, and Jimmy Graham and two, Matt was held to a league season low 47 points (not counting Zach's performance this week since he didn't field a full team) How does a team with Eli Manning, Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Bowe, Adrian Peterson, and Fred Jackson score less than 50 points??? Well Peterson got hurt for one thing (doubtful for this coming week) as did Fred Jackson who didn't do much of note while he was in. Eli Manning led Matt's team with 11 points, combined with a -1 performance by the Bills defense, it was just an overall dreadful team performance by Matt and a crucial blow to his playoff chances. Cam Newton rebounded from as mediocre game and was back on track with 28 points (despite 4 picks). How about Jabar Gaffney? 115 and a score for him, plus nice games from Maurice Jones-Drew and LaGarrette Blount (it was worth playing him this week, 107 and a score). Ryan all but has a bye wrapped up as he plays Zach and Cindy the final two weeks of the season. Matt on the other, basically is in must win mode, He loses one more and he's out. He'll play my dad this week, but without Adrian Peterson and possibly Fred Jackson, it might be a difficult task to accomplish.
Key Players
Cam Newton (Hoosier Daddy) 280 yards passing, 1 passing TD, 4 INT, 37 rushing yards, 2 rushing TD's, 1 2pt conversion, 28 points
Jabar Gaffney (Hoosier Daddy) 115 receiving yards, 1 receiving TD, 17 points
Maurice Jones-Drew (Hoosier Daddy) 87 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 31 receiving yards, 17 points
LaGarrette Blount (Hoosier Daddy) 107 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 6 receiving yards, 16 points
Disappointing Players
Eric Decker (Hoosier Daddy) 0 receiving yards, 0 points
Greg Olsen (Hoosier Daddy) 23 receiving yards, 2 points
Brandon Marshall (Dr. Wily's Robots) 5 receiving yards, 0 points
Adrian Peterson (Dr. Wily's Robots) 26 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 8 points (left game with injury)
Fred Jackson (Dr. Wily's Robots) 17 rushing yards, 50 receiving yards, 6 points (left game with injury)
Buffalo Bills Defense (Dr. Wily's Robots) 35 points allowed, 1 sack, 1 safety, -1 points
Da Boyz (3-8) 51
Shredders (3-8) 39
Overview: I'm not going to really bother with a recap here, as Zach gave this week up and didn't play a QB, WR, or K, yet still came close to winning. That's how brutal this was. Cindy's team was full of bye week fill ins as well, but she gets the win. Jordy Nelson had a nice game again, and I bet Kenny still wishes he hadn't pulled that trade earlier in the year. Cindy and Zach still have semi-competitive teams that have the capability of playing spoiler to the teams vying for playoff spots. It's up to them though, if they intend to follow through and try.
