HHH (6-7) vs Pack Attack (8-5)
This is a big one here! HHH is currently sitting at the #7 spot. With a win and a loss by either DaUnderdog or Starrfavrerodg they have a shot at sneaking into the playoffs. Pack Attack with a win will lock up the #2 seed and a playoff bye! The good news for HHH is that the #2 player in the league this year won’t be on the field (bye week for CMC). That is a huge break! Now can they take advantage of it!?

16hrs Ahead of You!! (5-8) vs PackerFANatic7 (6-7)
For PackerFANatic7 this week is simple. Win and win BIG! Ok, maybe that isn’t simple to accomplish but what they need to do is simple! The most realistic path for them to get into the playoffs is win and a loss by Starrfavrerodg and then they outscore Starrfavrerodg 40 points. They also would need HHH to lose or if they do win to outscore them by 41 points. That’s a tall task and I would put the percentage of this happening at like 10% but it’s better then nothing! 16hrs is waiting in the wings to play the role of spoiler! Should be a good one!
Prediction:
Josh Allen has scored a combined 17 points over the past two weeks for PackerFANatic7 and now he goes up against a Bengals D that is horrible and a offense that is led now by J Burrow. This could be one of those Monster games from Allen! The rest of the lineup however is a little suspect so for them to win and win BIG like they need to I really think this needs to be the 40 point J Allen week and for S Barkley to have a game in the 30! All doable and it wouldn’t suprise me at all if Allen got there. Barkley on the other hand that would. Outside of those two players I could just as easily see a 5 point game as a 15 point game and I actually kind of like 16hrs roster this week assuming they adjust the two guys on a bye I think they might win this one. Sorry PackerFANatic7 but I have 16hrs playing the role of spoiler and knocking them out of the playoffs!

Big Papa (5-8) vs BIGBOY! (8-5)
Big Papa’s season is over and BIGBOY! is already in the playoffs. This game does however has some meaning for BIGBOY! as if Pack Attack loses that would open the door for them to get back into that #2 spot and that ever important first round bye!
Prediction:
I don’t expect a lot of points in this one as I was looking through the lineups and no one stands out as great plays. I do like Jefferson this week and C Brown is in a nice spot. Olave is solid but Mahomes has a tough matchup against a solid Houston D. I like BIGBOY! to find a way to squeeze out a win like they have all season and put pressure on Pack Attack to not lose their game!
Historical Look at this Match-Up:
- Regular Season Match-ups: 17
- Record: Advantage BIGBOY! at 11-6
- PPG Avg: Advantage BIGBOY! 127.81 to 108.67
Bossman (6-7) vs Sportsfreak (8-5)
Bossman needs to win and win BIG and get a fair amount of help if they want to continue their playoff streak! The most realistic path for them which is very similar to PackerFANatic7 but it involves Starrfavrerodg losing and then Bossman outscoring all of the other teams including Starrfavrerodg by 40+ points. I gave PackerFANatic7 a 10% chance of getting into the playoffs… I would give Bossman a 4% chance! Sportsfreak is in but this is important to them too as they are fighting for that #2 spot with BIGBOY! and Pack Attack! For them it is simple, win this game, Pack Attack loses to HHH and then outscore BIGBOY! by 6 or more points and they are the #2 seed!
Prediction:
I expect the stars for both teams to play well. Sportsfreak has been led most of the season by JSN (except last week) and the same could be said for Bossman as they have been led by J Taylor (until the last two weeks). Those two players are the headliners but it will come down to the supporting cast. Bossman is currently starting TeSlaa, Vele and Godwin at the WR spot while Sportsfreak has Metcalf, N Collins and JSN. That is enough for me. I am going with Sportsfreak to get the win!

DaUnderdog (7-6) vs Rapids Plungers (10-3)
DaUnderdog needs this win! Can they get into the playoffs with a loss. Yes, however that isn’t a guarantee but a win and they are for sure in! They do however get the tough task of playing the top team in the league this week who has nothing to play for and if this were a real football game they for sure would be resting their starters to avoid injury! Since this is pretend football that isn’t happening and that means that DaUnderdog needs to take down the top team in the league to guarantee their spot in the playoffs! Rapids Plungers.. not much to say here other then enjoy your rest and if you don’t want to see DaUnderdog in the playoffs maybe go ahead and win this game!
Prediction:
Not cool for the NFL to have teams on bye weeks in week 14! Don’t they know that some of us are trying to get to the Fantasy playoffs!? DaUnderdog will be without Dowdle, D Maye & J Jennings this week due to the bye. Not to mention T Higgins is still in the concussion protocol so he seems 50/50 at best to play. That is tough to overcome while facing the #1 team in the league. I am not yet sure how they will be approaching this week as they haven’t adjusted their roster but I am going to go with Rapids Plungers to finish the season with a win and leaving DaUnderdog hoping they can get in with 7 wins!
Historical Look at this Match-Up:
- Regular Season Match-ups: 19
- Record: Advantage Rapids Plungers at 14-5
- PPG Avg: Advantage Rapids Plungers 128.64 to 107.63
pack slayer (5-8) vs U Don’t Know (6-7)
Every game this week has some playoff implications. Whether it is a team getting into the playoffs or seeding but this is the exception as pack slayer is out of it and there is really know way for U Don’t Know to catch up in points scored. So I will save my typing for a bit more relevant games and good luck to both of you and and better luck next season!
Prediction:
I got pack slayer winning this one to finish a respectable 6-8 on the season and dropping U Don’t Know to that same record. Pack slayer’s roster isn’t that bad when everyone is healthy and I expect them to put up a good showing this week!
Historical Look at this Match-Up:
- Regular Season Match-ups: 15
- Record: Advantage pack slayer at 10-5
- PPG Avg: Advantage pack slayer 119.30 to 106.25
Starrfavrerodg (7-6) vs teamAlaska (4-9)
Starrfavrerodg is on a roll and has climbed their way all the way back to a playoff spot. Now all they need to do is win one more (which would be their 6th in a row) and they are in the playoffs! They have a teamAlaska team that is lurking towards the bottom of the standings but they did just take down Rapids Plungers the top team in the league last week! Starrfavrerodg won’t have many fans in the league this week as anyone vying for a playoff spot will want them to loss simply because the best way for those teams to get in is with a loss by Starrfavrerodg! This should be a good one!
Prediction:
Yahoo has Starrfavrerodg as the highest projected scoring team this week and I don’t necessarily disagree. If Marvin Harrison is out that boosts M. Wilson and D Prescott against the Lions D in a dome and J Gibbs in that same game and I expect them to get off to a really strong start! Also to mention that for teamAlaska A St Brown is a true game time decision tonight it wouldn’t surprise me if Starrfavrerodg was up by 50 after the game is over. If for some reason both Gibbs and Dak only end up in the 20 to 30 range then we have a game! I do like Starrfavrerodg to get the win here and clinch the playoff berth!
Historical Look at this Match-Up:
- Regular Season Match-ups: 7
- Record: Advantage Starrfavrerodg at 4-3
- PPG Avg: Advantage Starrfavrerodg 129.76 to 96.37
