Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

You know, thinking about it, the schedule complications created from COVID has actually added a degree of intrigue for the confidence pool.

 

If you are anywhere but first in your season long pool, obviously you need points (that’s not the new part). Throughout the week, we will hear about practice facilities being shut down due to positive tests. When you hear that, red flags are thrown up regarding that teams scheduled game for that week. 

 

You have to keep this in mind when filling out your sheet. For example, with the fiasco the Titans went through, you may have wanted to drop their game down a few lines in the event that the game gets canceled after your picks are submitted. Game gets cancelled – you lose the chance at points! Better to lose out on gaining 5 points than gaining 10 points.

 

That being said, let’s keep it rolling!

 

Week 6 – HERE WE GO!!!!

 

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

 

14 – NEW ENGLAND over Denver – If Cam is ready to go this is a cinch. If he’s not, well, its still a pretty game to call.

 

13 – MIAMI over New York Jets – Speaking of easy games to call – the Jets are playing someone! 

 

12 – INDIANAPOLIS over Cincinnati – All signs point to this game happening, so the Colts will have a chance to easily get back on track.

 

11 – MINNESOTA over Atlanta – I mean, the Falcons…I know Dan Quinn is out now…but…why have confidence in them?

 

10 – TENNESSEE over Houston – The Titans made a big statement against the Bills last week and should be able to further their hold in the AFC South this week. 

 

9 – JACKSONVILLE over Detroit – The Lions have a lot of work to do, that’s for sure.

 

8 – PITTSBURGH over Cleveland – The Browns and Bears (as we’ll see a little later)...are both 4-1…don’t believe in either of them.

 

7 – Los Angeles Rams over SAN FRANCISCO – It looks like the Super Bowl Loser Curse is definitely a thing this year.

 

6 – Green Bay over TAMPA BAY – If you can score a lot of points, you can beat the Bucs – the Packers are more than capable of that.

 

5 – CAROLINA over Chicago – Remember what I said earlier, well, my BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that BOTH THE BROWNS AND BEARS WILL MISS THE PLAYOFFS.

 

4 – BUFFALO over Kansas City – Remember in Rocky IV when Drago got cut and showed he can be beat, well the league should thank the Raiders for the right cross they gave KC last week! 

 

3 – PHILADELPHIA over Baltimore – Pure hunch…puuurrrrreeeee hunch!

 

2 – Arizona over DALLAS – Kyler gets to shine on the Monday Night stage for the first time and won’t waste the opportunity.

 

1 – NEW YORK GIANTS over Washington – Congrats, city of New York! It takes a home game against a team that doesn’t even have a nickname to get your first win between your two teams!
