Bro...
After spending all of my Sunday in a bar like the lowlife that I am, I was pleased to return home to the news that Spider 2 Y Banana was likely victorious again (of course, there were still two players left on Cole's team for Monday Night but, he needed a whole lot more from Jeremy Langford and Malcom Floyd than what he got) and audibly "ooo"-ed and "wow"-ed multiple other results in the Bro League. Thee Wisconsin Chowhounds have inexplicably dropped three straight after looking like the clear championship favorites at 6-0 and even though it took a new-record 181 points from Sneen Machine to do so, a loss is a loss in this league (except for in the hypothetical standings). Team Silka once again forgot to set a lineup and suffered the consequences of multiple players on bye. It's a good thing Alex had DeAngelo Williams as the Steeler RB counted for 38 of the team's 67 points. Scott upset Nick in more ways than one with his third win of the year as he tries to make a late push for the playoffs and Team Tiffany is pretty much eliminated from the playoffs as he fell to 1-8 after losing this week's closest competition to Team Moon.

In the NFL, three undefeateds remain including the New England Patriots, Cincinnati Bengals and Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have won two straight games that they almost blew in the closing minutes to a wounded Colts team and the Packers. The Patriots look like they could run the table but, we are still only 50% of the way through the regular season and Cincinnati looks like a team that will drop a game when we least expect it and might actually win a playoff game for once in Marvin Lewis's life. It was another week of injuries as Dion Lewis of Thee Wisconsin Chowhounds and Patriot fame tore his ACL and now we'll have to wait and see or play the guessing game as to who the Patriot RB is that steps up as his replacement (Brandon Bolden? James White? Maurice Clarett?). Another injury to a Bro League starter occurred late in the day and went unannounced until Tuesday as Andrew Luck LACERATED HIS GODDAMN KIDNEY AND SHRUGGED IT OFF LIKE A G. Luck will now miss 2-6 weeks with that plus an abdominal tear plus maybe, possibly, not really broken ribs. It was also nice to see the Broncos lose as, let's face it, we're all tired of watching that team eek out wins thanks to their defense. Also, Blaine Gabbert beat the once-hyped Atlanta Falcons.

This week, the Thursday Night Game features Chris Ivory, Brandon Marshall and a questionable LeSean McCoy so change your lineups accordingly. The early Sunday slate includes the Packers likely putting up 40 on Detroit (they're angry), Dallas trying to dodge a seventh straight loss without Tony Romo in what would be their most embarrassing loss to date against Tampa, Marcus Mariota facing a real test in the Panthers defense and a boatload of fantasy points between the red-hot Drew Brees and his targets against Washington. Bye Week studs include Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Devonta Freeman, Philip Rivers, Antonio Gates, Frank Gore, Donte Moncrief and no relevant 49ers. The Bro League face-offs are pretty intriguing as well with head-to-head match-ups between Alec and myself (both 6-3 teams), Sneen and Nick (both above .500), Evan and Scott (could basically end Scott's season), Cole and Josh (Can Josh ever get that 2nd win?), and Silka and Thee Wisconsin Chowhounds (If Aschebrook Sr. loses, we'll have a new team atop the standings). It's going to be one hell of an intense weekend and with one bye week left, the playoffs are beginning to shape out.
