Week 8 Results: MEGATRON UNLEASHED

There are absolute no words to say about Calvin Johnson. Unbelievably amazing is the understatement of the century. This past week the way he just decimated the Cowboys...was amazing (coming from a Cowboys fan). 329 yards and 1 TD is INSANE and the even MORE crazy thing? He left TD's out there. He got tackled inside the 5 numerous times. That trade Kenny made, might be a difference maker after all. Here are the Week 8 results.

Not Even Lying (5-3)               119
Hoosier Daddy (2-6)                118

Holy crap what a MATCHUP. After Kenny's running backs were mediocre I thought fore sure Ryan had this in the bag. Nope. Proof that 3 players can definitely carry your entire team? Drew Brees had 5 TD's and 332 yards for 33 points, Calvin had 43 points with his major game i discussed earlier, and DeMaryius Thomas had 75 and a score for 16.5. Seriously..that's bascially it with everyone else chipping in modestly. Hell, Kenny didn't even play a receiver, he wins with only 7 guys as he sat Doug Baldwin after securing the win. For Ryan...man what a brutal loss. So unfair. He scored the 2nd most points this week but played Kenny. Just like against Mike, his team did good, he just faced a team that played a little bit better. He did have his chances though. Down 1, the Packers had the ball at the 1 yards line. They gave Eddie Lacy 2 tries to get in, he couldn't. Then on 3rd down, they passed to Lacy and he couldn't get in. Gutwrenching. Lacy had a nice game too with 94 and a score. We talked about Cam's amazing game Thursday night. Harry Douglas was great yet again, 12 receptions for 121 yards. The one killer? Julius Thomas barely played before exiting the game with an ankle injury. Probably cost Ryan the win. Fitz and Stevie Johnson added TD's too. Just a great all around performance from Ryan's guys that just came up short for a big win. For Kenny, he's very lucky to survive and is now in the thick of things big time. He'll take on Dad next week but without Calvin or Demaryius Thomas. Ryan on the other hand, will take on Drew in a "Loser's season is over" matchup as the loser will fall to 2-7 thus guaranteeing a losing season.

Game MVP 
Calvin Johnson (Not Even Lying)
14 catches, 329 receiving yards, 1 receiving TD, 1 fumble lost, 43 points


Danny's Little Giants (5-3)       91
Shock The Monkey (6-2)         44.5

WHAT....THE.....HELL.....HAPPENED??!?!? That was the 1st place team?! Granted, he had no Forte, but 44.5 points?!? Mark set a new record for lowest points in a week this season (which just got tied by Eugene in THE SAME WEEK). Just wow....Calvin Johnson lost to this team by 1.5 points just by himself. Matt Ryan 4 picks,  Steven Jackson..sucked, hell it's not worth getting into it when you see the score. Obviously the entire team sucked. For me, it seriously wasn't even any better. Outside of Matthew Stafford (488 yards, 1 Passing TD, and 1 rushing TD) and EMMANUEL SANDERS out of all people (88 receiving yards, 1 TD, and a 2 pt conversion) my guys didn't really do jack shit. LeSean McCoy continues to be disappointing, so does Pierre Garcon. Jason Witten did nothing, and though Lamar Miller was serviceable, he wasn't amazing. Luckily I wouldn't need it as Mark's team was just that terrible. Huge win for me, as now I have to face another 5-3 team in Mayra next week which will be a HUGE matchup. Don't worry Mark, you'll get your revenge on Leland next week.

Game MVP
Matthew Stafford (Danny's Little Giants)
488 Passing Yards, 1 Passing TD, 2 INT, 12 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 27 points
 

The Bad Robofies (6-2)             87
Passion ofthe Puente (5-3)         80

HE DID IT......AGAIN! This is BEYOND UNBELIEVABLE. 4 wins 7 points or under in a row. Has to be the upset of the season, considering who my dad had to put out there. Again on a Monday Night, Dad survives and is now 2nd place with a 6-2 record. 6-2 for the team I said looked the worst on paper. Kudos to Dad, for being the anti-me. He never panics, never worries, he looks at his team, makes adjustments for the week and rolls with what he has. Maybe that's the true formula for success. Marshawn Lynch against a supposedly horrid Rams Run D, just needed 10 points to seal the deal for Mike. He SUCKED BIG FAT COCK and only got 2.5. Wow, the worst possible time to come up with a performance like that. How the hell did Dad win this? Yahoo had him as a 30 point dog. Well Colin Kaepernick showed up again. His 54 rushing yards and 2 rushing TD's along with a 164 passing yards and a passing TD netted him 27 points. Jimmy Graham, despite being a game time decision, scored two TD's, as did Darren McFadden and Aaron Dobson chipped him with 60 and a score. Keep in mind Dad this with a 0 from Rueben Randle, a half point from Cole Beasley, and 2 points from Jacquizz Rodgers. So for Mike obviously the #1 reason he lost was Marshawn Lynch. It's all on him. He should've been good for 15-20 much less just 10. 2.5 against this Rams team. Very disappointing. Mike also got no help from his bye week fill in Roy Helu. Tony Gonzalez continues to stuggle without Roddy White and Julio Jones as defenses just completely take him out and Marques Colston continues to suck period.  Mike did get nice games from Tony Romo (3 TD's) Wes Welker (81 and a score), and Josh Gordon (132 and a score). Just a bad loss. Mike will take on a Peyton Manningless Albert team next week, while Dad will see if he still has the magic to be Kenny who will be without Calvin Johnson and Demaryius Thomas.

Game MVP
Colin Kaepernick (The Bad Robofies)
164 passing yards, 1 Passing TD, 54 rushing yards, 2 rushing TD's, 27 points
 

Tebow4President (2-6)                  66
Springville-Warrior (3-5)              44.5

Good god.....yeah this was actually UGLIER than I thought it was going to be and the team that won wasn't expected. Put this in perspective. Kenny scored 119 points, Ryan 118, they both would've beat both of these teams COMBINED. 66 points has to be a season low for a win. The only player worth talking about was Andre Ellington who exploded for 154 yards and a rushing TD. 13 of the 16 players scored 9.5 or less points. That's INSANE. This was a brutal loss for Eugene who could've used the "easy win" to get back in the thick of things. He still has a shot, but 4-4 would've looked a lot nicer. Leland plays Mark next week, while Eugene plays Matt in an important matchup where the winner will have a shot to get back in the playoff hunt.

Game MVP
Andre Ellington (Tebow4President)
154 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 2 receptions, 8 receiving yards, 22 points

Dr. Light's Robots (3-5)            103.5
Channel 4 News Team (4-4)      83.5

Wow, did Matt need this win to save his season. He got it on a Monday Night Comeback. Matt was down around 20 points going into Monday Night with a  trio of Golden Tate, Zac Stacey and Jared Cook left to Albert's Tavon Austin. Stacey and Tate came up HUGE. Golden Tate had 5 receptions for 93 yards and 2 TD's, while Zac Stacey piled up 134 yards as Matt took that 20 point deficit and turned it into a critical win. It hadn't looked good for Matt after RGIII was HORRIBLE in a juicy matchup against the Broncos. He finished with only 4 points. Jamaal Charles and Jordan Reed chipped in 13.5 and 13 points respectively as Matt survives for another week. This was a bad loss for Albert who know falls to .500 for the season. Peyton Manning had his usual 4 passing TD, 23.5 point performance though he did have 3 picks and a fumble. A.J. Green had yardage, but it was the Marvin Jones show for Cincy. Frank Gore added two more TD's as it's crazy to see where Albert actually lost. His receivers were pretty weak outside of A.J. Green. Mike Wallace, Tavon Austin, and Dwyane Bowe combined for 7 points. Albert (without Peyton Manning) will now have to face Mike next week, while Matt takes on Eugene in a survival match pitting two 3-5 teams.

Game MVP
Golden Tate (Dr. Light's Robots)
5 receptions, 93 yards, 2 receiving TD's, 23.5 points (Monday Night performance to help win matchup)
 

Bigger Balls (5-3)                       95
I'm A Paul Heyman Guy (2-6)   94.5

Ouch. For the 3rd straight week, Drew has a winnable matchup and his team just can't get the job done. This is his 2nd loss under 3 points in the last 3 weeks. Sucks to lose that way. Austin Pettis was the one who did Drew in Monday night. He needed 4 points and got exactly 4 points all early, and didn't do anything else. Aaron Rodgers had his typical efficient game with 2 TD passes, and 22 points overall. Dez Bryant added 2 TD's, Knowshown had another nice game with a TD and 21 points overall. Vernon Davis added a TD, and Antonio Brown had a nice PPR and yardage game to help secure the big win. For Drew, maybe he should've stuck with Terrelle Pryor. He barely was better than Carson Palmer, who didn't have to do much, but when you lose by half a point, barely better would've been the difference maker. Drew had solid games from his Bush/Peterson combo (though again, that Bush fumble ended up being HUGE now looking back at it) and only Danny Amendola scored under 10 points (he sucked with only 2.5 points). The only silver lining is Terrence Williams looks legit as he had yet another TD. Just the little things that could've gone one way or another that cost Drew this week. Mayra plays me next week in what will be a huge matchup with a lot at stake. Drew also has a lot at stake in his matchup with Ryan. The loser will be 2-7 and their season will basically be over as there's no way this season a team with a losing record will make the playoffs.

Game MVP
Aaron Rodgers (Bigger Balls)
285 Passing Yards, 2 Passing TD's, 31 rushing yards, 22 points
 Rodgers, Packers cruise past Vikings 44-31
