[Rin Kagamine]

[Rin Kagamine]

Lol, funnily enough, the only reason I even put in Lockett was because Michael Floyd get a DUI

Floyd got claimed by the Patriots and he flew to Denver with them, shoulda stuck with them

[Rin Kagamine]

Me: "Hmm, Matt Moore might be a good pick-up this week, especially with Brees playing the Cardinals."
Also me: *forgets the Dolphins play on Saturday*

[Edible]

It's okay, the Jets forgot the Dolphins were playing yesterday too

[Hainiryuun]

23 points from the Dolphins D. Thank god the Jets are terrible

I hate you and your STUPID team so much

It would have been great if I'd actually remembered to pick him up

Come on. If you learned anything from that game, it should have been that it's a bad idea to be Petty.

What about Devonta Freeman doing it?

[Edible]

Well, one more week left for Vic's team to collapse horribly upon itself

I already lost to Zirene this year so of course I'll lose again!

[Hainiryuun]

Little more hard to swallow, lol

Team looking worse than last year?  Fans feeling down in the dumps?

I have a solution for you - beating the Redskins!

Yes, you too can get over your bad season by staying in the playoff hunt by beating the shit out of Washington.

Beating Josh Norman was my only hope this year

Pressing questions:

• Will Tom Brady lose his starting job to Jimmy Garoppolo, or will he lose it to Jacoby Brissett who will beat out Garoppolo in camp?
• Will Favre come back now that he's in the HOF to sling it one more time?
• Will the Browns finally be relegated to the CFL?
• Will the MVP finally be awarded to the most deserving recipient: The Troops?
• Will the AFCCG not be Patriots vs Steelers?

• Garoppolo played very well then got hurt, while Brissett played well until he also got hurt then went to IR.  Patriots just activated him from IR and Brady has looked incredible this year.  Is Garoppolo still on the team?  Serious question, I haven't heard his name since week 3.  Maybe Belichick already traded him away for a bevy of picks.
• Sadly no, despite both the Vikings and Jets needing serious QB help this year, in addition to putrid QB play from the Browns, 49ers, and Bears.
• 0-16 is a serious possibility and a parade to celebrate has preemptively been crowdfunded.  Browns should be relegated to NCAA Division 2.
• I see no player more deserving of MVP recognition than The Troops.
• For a while there it looked like Patriots-Raiders or Patriots-Ravens, but now it looks like Patriots-Steelers is back on!!!  NFC probably Cowboys-Seahawks.

[Rin Kagamine]

Are the Chargers actually worse than the Browns now?

Post-season predictions:

AFC:
Champs

• Patriots
• Steelers
• Colts
• Chiefs

Wild Card

• Raiders
• Bengals

NFC:
Champs

• Panthers
• Packers
• Cardinals
• Cowboys

Wild Card

• Seahawks
• Vikings

Spoilers: the Chargers were not worse than the Browns, but Philip Rivers is this generation's Dan Marino

AFC picks looking pretty good.  Whiffed on the Bengals and Colts, but with the Ravens looking to fill our yearly "multiple AFC North playoff teams" itch we're good.  I don't trust the Dolphins to keep it all together with Matt Moore under center, but maybe the Patriots won't care about playing well in week 17?  AFC South is terrible but we might actually see the Titans make the playoffs!!!!!

NFC picks I only had Dallas right, Seahawks already clinched their division.  NFC North is completely unknown and we might seriously get multiple NFC East teams in the playoffs which is an utter nightmare of Lovecraftian creation.  As always, fuck the Falcons who are already NFC South champions but the Panthers have a 0.004% chance of getting a Wild Card spot!!!!  KEEP DAMN POUNDING!!!!!! 

(please dont we need a good draft pick more than a playoff loss)

[Kilgamayan]

>mfw the Titans cock up their playoff hopes by choking against Blake Bortles

[Rin Kagamine]

Motherfucking Kirk Cousins I swear to FUCKING Christmas

[PX]

Called the Browns beating the Chargers

[Edible]

Jesus christ, poor raiders

[Rin Kagamine]

I need Golden Tate to have a monster game for another league so congrats to Zirene for winning

Spoiler:

you cheeky bastard

hope Arkansas loses the Belk Bowl so you don't get all the joy!!!

[Kilgamayan]

Jesus christ, poor patriots haters hoping anyone else would represent the AFC in the SB

[Edible]

That is also true

Edit: Also, Vic appears to have lost despite lamar miller being out

[Hainiryuun]

77 points from Rodgers/Nelson and I'm somehow behind going into the last 3 games...
