Week 15 Awards
Wow You Guys Suck: David Garrard, Talk about killing your teams chances to win, not only were you responsible for the three touchdowns by the Titans, but your defense completely dominated the game and without your miserable turnovers the Jaguars win that game comfortably. Can we stop annointing Garrard as definitively better than Leftwich now, what exactly has he done that's so great? Runners Up: Houston was game over by about the 5th minute, Oakland's been outscored by about 50 points by LT alone.
Cough Cough Cough: Seattle Seahawks, What are you guys doing? Back to Back losses to the 49ers and Cardinals. Are you serious? Now you actually have a remote chance of losing the division, and with the Chargers coming into Qwest this week be prepared for some extra stress come the final weekend of the season. So much for the Hasselbeck Alexander returns making this a good squad again. Runners Up: G-Men coughed the ball up too many times to eliminate the chance of taking advantage of a great situation, Herm nighty night on your playoff chances.
This Scarecrow Needs a Brain: Al Davis & Matt Millen, Three First round quarterbacks have all had decent seasons thus far while going through growing pains, but you idiots who desperately need a quarterback decided to ignore Cutler and Leinart, and guess what one of you isn't going to get Brady Quinn either, and I bet that team shies away from Troy Smith because of his height. Runner Up: Texans David Carr is not the answer, Every team with an injured starter who decided not to pursue Jeff Garcia.
The Shocker: Washington Redskins, I picked the Redskins to cover and I wasn't surprised that the game was close down the stretch, but I was very surprised that the Saints did not pull it out in the end and more so that their offense sputtered so much against a middle of the pack defense. Runners Up: Carolina looks like a team fighting for Brady Quinn not for a playoff spot, Jacksonville might have been surprising to some but I picked Tennessee to win just seems to be the way the Jaguars do it beat teams people think they will lose to and then lose to the Titans and Texans.
The Pimp: Brian Dawkins, He might be the first defensive guy I selected this whole season but Dawkins was the reason the Eagles defeated the Giants this weekend and the reason why the Eagles actually control their Divisional Title Destiny. Dawkins finished the day with 12 tackles, 2 Forced Fumbles and an Interception, thats pretty pimp. Runners Up: Chad Pennington picked apart the Vikings terrible secondary, LT taking up his weekly pimp spot with only 199 yards rushing and 2 tds weak.
You Got JAKKED UP: Cedric Houston, The Jets running back on a simple run up the gut received a double closeline from Pat Williams, and if you aren't familiar with Pat Williams imagine getting hit by two brontosaurus legs.
My Fantasy MVP: Mike Vick, With Drew Brees having an off week and the importance of getting points out of your quarterback Vick along with Frank Gore helped me gain a 50-0 edge going into the sunday games, needless to say I'm headed to the finals baby.
New York Jets MVP: Laveranues Coles, I was tempted to put Pennington because he bounced back so well from the poor Bills game, but the real Jets hero was Coles who pulled down everything thrown in his direction and truly is amazing fighting for yards after the catch. Coles was relentless this weekend, and his season thus far is making me forget about the monster year Santana Moss had last year, when that trade looked like rubbish.
My Picks
My Picks: 10-6
Preseason Picks: 7-9
Picks Vs. Spread: 11-5
Actually a good week, probably because my buddy Steve said he didn't like my picks, although the only one he really named was the Patriots, and I got that well wrong.
Week 15 Extra Quick Notes
~Ladell Betts = Best Late Season Free Agent Fantasy Pick Up
~Just when you continue to rip the Bears QB, their defense gives up 31 points to a Buc team that never scores points, and Grossman bails them out, go figure.
~Speaking of the miserable Bucs, maybe they should have been starting Rattay the whole season.
~What if Jeff Garcia runs the table wins the division and takes the Eagles to a minimum of the NFC championship game, does McNabb automatically regain his starting role, will the Eagles fans start booing him once he does something bad?
~Cutler had his coming out, that Bengal Bronco game on xmas eve is pretty diesel.
~I had to root for the Colts last night, and for the Jets to control their own destiny I need a Patriot win next week against the Jags, this is sending sharp pains throughout my body.
