Well this is it, Week 13. The final week before the playoffs begin. There are only a couple for sure things we know about the playoffs. Matt has secured a 1st round bye, Ryan and Leland have clinched playoff spots, and Kenny is basically mathematically eliminated. The huge question is that #6 spot. 4 teams (me, Mayra, Drew, Mike) are in contention for it. Me and Posey are probably in the worst position to make it because we need a win and 3 losses from the others. If Mayra wins, she's in. It's going to be a crazy finish for that last coveted spot. Here are this week matchups.
The Bad Robofies (6-6) vs
Poseidon Angry (4-7-1)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Series is tied 1-1
Last Matchup: Dad beat me 129-125.5 in Week 4
Key Players
The Bad Robofies: Cam Newton (Chiefs) Wes Welker (Dolphins) Randall Cobb (Vikings) Vincent Jackson (Broncos) Darren Sproles (Falcons)
Poseidon Angry: Eli Manning (Redskins) Victor Cruz (Redskins) Calvin Johnson (Colts) Eric Decker (Bucs) Matt Forte (Seahawks) Bryce Brown (Cowboys)
Wild Cards
The Bad Robofies: Murray playing?
Poseidon Angry: Encore Bryce Brown performance? Who's gonna be my Tight End?
Predictions
Sigh....I'm still a little down about the Bryce Brown almost led miracle performance. That would've gone down in history as one of the greatest comebacks of all time. Instead it lead to a tie. 2 yards...sums up my season. I need a lot of help this week, not only do I have to beat my Dad without a real Tight End, Real Defense, and a half healthy Matt Forte, I have to hope 3 other people lose as well. I don't see it happening. Hell I don't even see getting past my dad honestly, which would make everything else moot. It'd be nice, but I'm guessing I'll get a bye next week......in the loser bracket of course. Dad wins.
The Twin Killers (7-4-1) vs
Breaking Bybee (4-8)

All Time Record: Series is tied 2-2
Last Matchup: Kenny beat Leland 132.5-91.5 in Week 4

Breaking Bybee: RGIII (Giants) Roddy White (Saints) Tony Gonzalez (Saints) Ray Rice (Steelers) Jamaal Charles (Panthers)
Wild Cards
The Twin Killers: Tight End Set?
Breaking Bybee: Pierre Garcon fully back?
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Kenny wins 117-106
I say: Kenny wins, I think Kenny will get to end his season on a good note. At least in my case I'm playing for something. Kenny's not playing for anything, but at least he's willing to put out a very competitive team. Remember, Leland is still playing for a bye. He'll need to beat Kenny and hope Ryan loses to get it. I think he'll end up being a very dangerous #3 seed. See ya in the loser bracket Kenny.
Dr. Wily's Robots (9-3) vs
Bigger Balls (5-8)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Matt leads series 1-0
Last Matchup: Matt beat Mayra 130-127.5 in week 4

Bigger Balls: Drew Brees (Falcons) Marques Colston (Falcons) Andre Johnson (Titans) Frank Gore (Rams) Ryan Mathews (Bengals) Owen Daniels (Titans)
Wild Cards
Dr. Wily's Robots: Carson Palmer's turn at QB. Percy Harvin Still Hurt?
Bigger Balls: None really
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Matt wins 119-108 (Assuming Harvin Plays)
I say: I can definitely see Mayra taking this. Mayra's on a 3 game losing streak, but has the easiest path the playoffs of us 4. She wins, she's in. I think she pulls it off. I just like her overall matchups better and I don't think Harvin plays this week.
Channel 4 News Team (6-6) vs
Chardee MacDennis (5-8)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Albert leads series 3-2
Last Matchup: Albert beat Drew 149-91.5 in Week 4
Key Players
Channel 4 News Team: Tom Brady (Dolphins) Demaryius Thomas (Bucs) Brandon Marshall ( Seahawks) Trent Richardson (Raiders) Jimmy Graham (Falcons)
Chardee MacDennis: Matthew Stafford (Colts) Cecil Shorts III (Bills) Adrian Peterson (Packers) Aaron Hernandez (Dolphins)
Wild Cards
Channel 4 News Team: Lance Moore/Dwayne Bowe WR #3? Mikel LeShoure Health?
Chardee MacDennis: Dual Jaguar Receivers? Moreno Real Deal?
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Tie 106-106
I Say: On paper, you would think Albert would mop the floor with Drew. Cecil Shorts? Justin Blackmon? Knowshon Moreno?? But this is the same team that beat the crap out of my dad, and it could very well do the same to Albert. I think I'll still give the slight edge to Albert, only because I'd like to see more of this Shorts/Blackmon combo and see what Moreno does in game 2. It wouldn't shock me in the least bit, if this ended up working for Drew though. If Drew wins, he'll need Mayra to lose to get the playoff spot.
Hoosier Daddy (8-4) vs
Richard Head (5-8)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Ryan Leads Series 3-0
Last Matchup: Ryan beat Mike 120.5-91 in Week 4
Key Players
Hoosier Daddy: Peyton Manning (Bucs) Reggie Wayne (Lions) Larry Fitzgerald (Jets) Ahmad Bradshaw (Redskins) Jason Witten (Eagles)
Richard Head: Aaron Rodgers (Vikings) Dez Bryant (Eagles) Steven Jackson (49ers) Chris Johnson (Texans)
Wild Cards:
Hoosier Daddy: Devone Bess/Denario Alexander #3 WR? Reggie Bush/BenJarvus Green-Ellis RB #2?
Richard Head: Santana Moss/Brandon Lloyd Step up? Tough Matchups for Steven Jackson and Chris Johnson
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Ryan wins 116-102
I Say: Ryan wins. This is one I hope I'm right on for my sake. Mike is the quietly in the hunt for that 6th seed, but like me he needs a lot of help. Me, Mayra, and Drew all have to lose along with a win against Ryan. I just seems like Ryan has the better overall team. I know I've said that a lot, but once again, I'll take my chances and say Ryan secures his bye and gets the W.
