Week 14 Apology and Colts vs. Jags predictions

I would first like to start with an apology. Not to The Pope or to any future followers who might read this, but to my favorite team, the San Francisco 49ers. Not that any of them will ever read this but I am aplogizing on behalf of my fanhood. I have been a loyal fan my whole life and I went against you this weekend and failed misrably (hopefully The Pope didn't put as much money as I did on this game). I have learned not to bet against you (or on you) and I have now learned that the defense if finally legit!

Quick recap on the week 14 picks:

1. Chris Johnson and Jamaal Charles did what they were suppose to, Gore went off for 177 and a TD
2. Wes Welker 10 rec. 105 yards, not great but solid, T.O. could learn a lot from Wes
3. My QB picks were awful with Eli being the #1 in most leagues while Warner led his team to 7 TO's
4. TE's and DEF's were all pushes

Not a great first week of the playoffs for me but with the dominate game from Andre Johnson I was able to move on to the divisional round in one of my leagues and in another I was dominant with the likes of Chris Johnson, Gore, T. Jones, Andre Johnson, Vernon Davis (ucantbeatme, the 28th overall team in ESPN fantasy leagues with standard scoring)

The All-Fantasy team of week 14: QB Eli, RB C. Johnson (only one who made the list from my picks), RB Ray Rice, WR Andre Johnson, WR Brandon Marshal (21/200), TE Dallas Clark, DEF. 49ers (waaay off on them)

Week 15 Big Things Thursdays Picks: QB Peyton Manning will start and will throw for 2 TDs in the 1st half, if he plays the 2nd expect another

RB MJD will have a big game regardless how large the deficit. I expect Addai to get his usual double digit points as well

WR Sorry Jags fans but I don't expect any of your receiver to make an impact. Colts fans expect the usual

TE Dallas Clark, Obivously

DEF. I told my uncle to start the Colts over the Steelers this week in his playoff game. I have to think Garrard will be on his back more than a few times.

With 80% of the public on the Colts for this game I see the bookies losing money on the line. Take the Colts giving 3. However, the bookies will get some money back with the under, 43, with only 40% of people on it at this point.

Colts 24

Jags 13

Final picks for the weekend games will be in Friday night. If your reading this, I want to thank you and wish you luck in your playoff games if you are still alive.

Quick Fantasy Basketball note: If Johnny Flynn is available in your league and you need a guard PICK HIM UP! He will stay fresh all year with his young legs and begin to excel in the league very soon. Steals, assists, and decent points and FT % will be his asset's.

Introduction

Hello everyone and thank you for checking out my blog. This is my first post which is not exactly a post but a pre-first post, if you will. I just wanted to quickly explain what will be going on here. I have played Fantasy sports (I know that screams geek) for several years now and have been very successful. I will share my ways to succeed (making the playoffs in almost every league every year, I will get the stats out eventually) with my followers as well as statistics and my thinking. Now, although the heading will read Fantasy Football there will be several other topics of discussion. I have friends with sports betting knowledge and talent, I will not only be sharing their picks but their reasons as to why and maybe even have some guest fantasy picks for the weekend. I specialize in Football but have also had success in basketball and baseball, so I will be submitting posts for those seasons as well. I hope you all like what I do for you and we can help each other make this a well known and successful blog. Now let me give some quick advice until I can get more involved in the next couple of weeks. I know the season is almost over but maybe I can help you win your league and the playoffs, either way GOOD LUCK!

Getting PAID: People who I believe could be top five at their position for the week!
QB Kurt Warner $$$$ Will torch 9ers secondary. Im a 9er fan =^(
RB Jamaal Charles $$$ Helped me make the playoffs, will help you win today!
RB Chris Johnson $$$$$ Monster day! Possibly 200 + yds.
Wr Terell Owens $$$$ Easy secondary, expect a lot of looks today.
Wr Wes Welker $$$ Above average seconday will force Brady to look his way.
TE Jeremy Shockey $$ Just a hunch, but he is due!
K Anyone who does not play for the BUCS, RAMS, LIONS, SKINS Who cares?
DEF. Arizona Cardinals $$$$ Did you see them last week? Alex Smith is not Favre!


Going Bankrupt: People who will prevent you from moving on!
QB Eli Manning Tough eagles secondary, expect around 200 yds. 1-2 int's.
RB Frank Gore Cardinals shut down Adrian Peterson, Gore is next.
RB Cedric Benson 30 plus carries last week and just over 100 against DET. Hello Vikes!
Wr Giants Receivers In my opinion the Eagles have a top 2 or 3 secondary.
Wr Steve Smith (Car.) Matt Moore against an angry PATS. defense. Good luck!
TE Jason Witten Just like Shockey, this is a hunch. Chargers have good cover OLB's.
K Above
DEF. Dallas Cowboys I expect Rivers to have a good day, in relation Dallas Def. won't!





Getting PAID ratings are based on a 1-5 scale using $. 5 $'s is a must start lesser $'s use your intelligence and play matchups. Just because one of your players isn't up on the list and you have someone who is that doesn't always mean I think you should start them over the other guy. Matchups are KEY!

Thanks again for your support,
