Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

Welcome to Hell (bye) Week!

This is just another way to show that doing the confidence pool is a lot less stressful than your regular fantasy football season! Sure there are a lot of teams that won’t be playing this week, but we don’t have to worry about matchups! And since I’m sure you’re sitting towards the top of your season long pool, less points is a plus for us!

So let’s just keep calm and win another week!

Week 12 – HERE WE GO!!!!

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

13 – HOUSTON over Tennessee – I don’t think the Titans could beat the University of Houston let alone the Houston Texans.

12 – Kansas City over CAROLINA – Obviously would be the top line if this were played in KC.

11 – WASHIGNTON over Dallas – This country is as divided as it has been in over a century … but we can all come together in our love for watching the Cowboys lose!

10 – Dever over LAS VEGAS – Barring some major change, I can’t see myself picking the Raiders again this year.

9 – Tampa Bay over NEW YORK GIANTS – I really want to pick Tommy DeVito, I really do! Unfortunately Baker may be getting some of his weapons back this week.

8 – SEATTLE over Arizona – Who knew this would be a battle for the top spot of the division??

7 – GREEN BAY over San Francisco – The 9ers just don’t seem to be all there lately

6 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over Philadelphia – After a slow, injury plagued start, I feel like the Rams are going to make a run. My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that THE RAMS WILL WIN AT LEAST ONE PLAYOFF GAME.

5 – Baltimore over LOS ANGELES CHARGERS  - It seems like this will be a tough test to show that the Chargers just aren’t top-tier yet.

4 – MIAMI over New England – This should be a lot higher on the list, right?

3 – CHICAGO over Minnesota – Bears fans deserve to get this win after last week

2 – CLEVELAND over Pittsburgh – This just seems like one of those trap games … much like …

1 – INDIANAPOLIS over Detroit - …THIS one does.

Don’t look now but we are getting close to the end of the season.

If you are somewhere in the middle of your season long pool, now is the time to start making your move! Though, if you have been following the picks here – obviously you are towards the top :)

So let’s keep it rolling!

Week 11 – HERE WE GO!!!!

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

14 – DETROIT over Jacksonville – I feel like the Lions are what the Jaguars were supposed to be

13 – MIAMI over Las Vegas – (looks at 2025 NFL Mock Drafts to see the next Raiders quarterback)

12 – SAN FRANCISCO over Seattle – On behalf of one-win fantasy owners everywhere, welcome back CMC!

11 – Houston over DALLAS – At least it’s a night game so the open window in Jerry World won’t be an issue this week.

10 – LOS ANGELES CHARGERS over Cincinnati – The Bengals can put up numbers, just not enough points.

9 – Green Bay over CHICAGO – Changes on the Lakefront happened too late. Between that and a difficult remaining schedule, my BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that THE BEARS WILL HAVE A TOP 5 PICK IN NEXT YEARS DRAFT.

8 – NEW ORLEANS over Cleveland – This is a needed get-right game for the Saints offense – MVS isn’t a lasting answer.

7 – Minnesota over TENNESSEE – It’s gonna be hard to pick the Titans the rest of the season.

6 – BUFFALO over Kansas City – There’s a small chance this could very well be an entertaining game.

5 – Baltimore over PITTSBURGH – I’m probably making a mistake not having faith in the Steelers at this point, yet here we are.

4 – PHILADELPHIA over Washington – Potential for another competitive game on Amazon? What world are we in?

3 – DENVER over Atlanta – I can’t remember there being a game with two teams who I can get an accurate read on less.

2 – NEW ENGLAND over Los Angeles Rams – Pure hunch on this one.

1 – Indianapolis over NEW YORK JETS – The Colts believe in Anthony Richardson again, so I’ll believe in him as well.

We’re already on double digit weeks? How can this be!

And after last week, we are ready to get into the double digit portion of the season. We said that we needed a big week last week and I would say we did just that!

Let’s keep it rolling!

Week 10 – HERE WE GO!!!!

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

14 – KANSAS CITY over Denver – The Chiefs are going to lose a game this season … … … right?

13 – BALTIMORE over Cincinnati – Can’t play the Raiders every week, Bengals!

12 – WASHIGNTON over Pittsburgh – The Commander should have no business being this high against the Steelers, but here we are.

11 – CHICAGO over New England – Lose this one and there will be a LOT of angry Bears fans

10 – LOS ANGELES CHARGERS over Tennessee – The Chargers have been one of the quietest solid looking teams this year – along with … … …

9 – CARDINALS over New York Jets - … … … the Cardinals!

8 – Buffalo over INDIANAPOLIS – I’m feeling it this year. My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that THE BILLS WILL WIN THE SUPER BOWL.

7 – Minnesota over JACKSONVILLE – Safe the say the Vikings need this one if they want to keep up with the Lions.

6 – San Francisco over TAMPA BAY – If Baker had a wide receiver to throw to this would be a lot closer.

5 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over Miami – Take the over on this one for sure!

4 – Atlanta over NEW ORLEANS – Derek Carr needs to get the Saints offense back to where they were in the beginning of the season for me to have faith in them.

3 – Philadelphia over DALLAS – The Cowboys would have at least had a chance if Dak was playing.

2 – Detroit over HOUSTON – This will be a Super Bowl matchup in the next few years.

1 – CAROLINA over New York Giants – Sending these two teams to play in Germany is our wars start.

Oh this is gonna be an interesting week for sure.

Looking down the list of games and there aren’t too many, no-brainers! The Bengals are sitting on the second highest line this week … … … need I say more?? So this could be a make or break week for us.

No point in delaying the inevitable any longer, let’s get going!

Week 9 – HERE WE GO!!!!

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

15 – BALTIMORE over Denver – The Broncos will be crashing back down to reality on this one … … … hard!

14 – CINCINNATI over Las Vegas – It’s fun being a Raiders fan… it really is…

13 – MINNESOTA over Indianapolis – This probably would’ve been on the top line if the Colts didn’t make a quarterback change.

12 – BUFFALO over Miami – The inevitable realization of the Dolphin’s offense that Tua is back does make me a bit hesitant on this one.

11 – PHILADELPHIA over Jacksonville – It’s weird to have a game this high when I think they’ll win just because it’s a home game.

10 – SEATTLE over Los Angeles Rams – I feel like last week’s drubbing by Buffalo is the wake up Seattle needs in the apparently winable NFC West .

9 – Washington over NEW YORK GIANTS – Safe to say the Commanders are riding high after last week.

8 – KANSAS CITY over Tampa Bay – I would have loved to see this game if the Bucs had a full offense.

7 – Chicago over ARIZONA – A bounce back here after last week’s ending would show us how Caleb Williams can handle the NFL life.

6 – ATLANTA over Dallas – I see big things for Kirk Cousins in this one. My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that KIRK COUSINS WILL THROW FOR AT LEAST 450 YARDS AND THREE TDs THIS WEEK.

5 – Los Angeles Chargers over CLEVELAND – I feel like the Browns got their one unexpected win of the season last week.

4 – Houston over NEW YORK JETS – To put it terms New York fans will understand – Houston is like Aaron Judge in the regular season, the Jets are Aaron Judge in the post season.

3 – GREEN BAY over Detroit – This is contingent on Jordan Love playing. Switch to the Lions if he doesn’t…or if you think he’ll be knocked out in the middle of the game again.

2 – New Orleans over CAROLINA – I want to, but its just hard to pick the Panthers in any situation.

1 – New England over TENNESSEE – Titans fans will watch Drake Maye and think about what should have been with Will Levis.
