Kansas City beats Atlanta on an intercepted two-point return. The Lions, of all teams, prevent Drew Brees from throwing a TD pass at home. The seemingly hapless Cardinals figure it out against surging Washington.
The NFL is a weird, unpredictable business. And we kind of got swept up in it again last week.
Andy paced the picks for the second time in three weeks, hitting just 10 of 15. John Vomhof hit nine. The rest was a little on the ugly side.
Here are the standings heading into the final quarter of the season.
Week 13 | Overall | |
Andy | 10-5 | 105-85-2 |
Vomhof | 9-6 | 120-70-2 |
Tony | 7-8 | 115-75-2 |
Maggio | 7-8 | 111-79-2 |
Andy finally did break the 100-win mark. He’s actually on a 31-14 run the last few weeks. Tony’s 25-5 two-week stretch snapped last week. Can we get back on track?
Here’s week 14.

Game of the Week: Oakland at Kansas City – I hate when really good games, especially division rivalries, are on Thursday. It gives home teams a dramatic advantage due to travel and shortened recovery times. And the quality of play has been noticeably worse than when teams have normal rest time. This game should be great anyway. The Chiefs need it to stop the Raiders from running away with the division. The Raiders can break a four-game losing streak against Kansas City. Drama.
Game of the Weak: New York Jets at San Francisco – The 49ers got pummeled by the hapless Bears last week. The Jets barely showed up against Indianapolis. These two teams could be playing the worst football in the league right now. I think it might be time to put up the Christmas tree.
