The past couple of weeks, I have spotted the same family of at least four albino deer just chilling along the railroad on my many not-so-extravagant travels. Every time I see these creatures just strolling about, it stops me in my tracks. I reach to grab a device with the capability of taking a photograph and to my disappointment, either the phone/camera is not there or the deer have already moved on by the time I'm ready. It's a feeling of disappointment that is only matched by checking the box scores in our Bro League the past couple of weeks, only to see that Tyler Sneen had an empty flex position (last week) or two inactive players in his lineup (this week). I'm giving him one more week before I begin to just fully shit on him the way I did with Evan last season. Darrin Aschebrook would have won his first game either way but, his win still feels a little less special with an inactive Jordan Reed remaining in the MACHINE's lineup. At the end of the day, a win is a win and the final weight of the 2017 season has been lifted off Darrin as he was simultaneously victorious for the first time and he was officially eliminated from postseason contention. It does not get more unlucky than turning Aaron Rodgers and David Johnson into nine consecutive losses. The drama was more prevalent in the WRBL this week with DeAndre Hopkins grabbing a garbage time reception for the 1-point win by 5-win Nick, who is now closing in on 6-4 Team Easy Breesy. Also close were Scott and Cole, where Scott relied on Christian McCaffrey's two touchdowns to hold off Cole's Jarvis Landry despite a garbage touchdown by the greatest Dolphin receiver since Sliced Bread (Sliced Bread, Tight End, UW-Kellner). In our final WRBL matchup, I survived the Hunt/Kelce bye week thanks to some clutch garbage points from waiver pickup Sterling Shepard and the Rams in general. This will be a tough loss for Alec to digest as he sits 1.5 games out of the playoffs.
At the moment, Scott holds a one-point lead over The Engine That Could for first place in the league and it LITERALLY does not get any closer than that. In what might look like a predictable cakewalk victory against a 1-win team, think again as Scott's father has never had a stronger showing than in the past couple of weeks. Meanwhile, Nick Zurawski is even hotter, on a 3-game winning streak and stands a very fair chance against my squad that looks slightly lesser than usual as of late with Tyron Smith and Ezekiel Elliott not able to block for Dak Prescott. Ryan and Alec are both slipping but, Ryan still holds a seat in the playoffs for now and this is the biggest "MUST WIN" on the calendar for the Swan. Lastly, Cole may have mentally forfeit on his team but, a match against SNEEN MACHINE might be just what Cole needs to regain faith in his post-Watson roster. The final bye week is here and with three nobodies plus Carolina off this week, the only things affecting most of us are injuries (and the Elliott suspension). Finally, we have some good NFL games on the schedule (See: Falcons-Seahawks & Eagles-Seahawks) so cherish these moments because there are plenty of teams that need their logos replaced by emojis.

Bro...
Oh, that wacky NFC. It was only one year ago when Case Keenum and Jared Goff were leading the NFL's worst offense under football terrorist Jeff Fisher's tutiledge. Now, the two quarterbacks are leading the best non-Eagle NFC teams and will face off this week in a potential playoff preview. Not only are they both on very good, balanced football teams but, both have had an unreal amount of positive impact on their team's fortunes. This is not Doug Marrone completely ignoring Blake Bortles' existence, Keenum and Goff are both real deals in a league where Big Ben stinks, Rodgers is hurt and Blaine Yo Gabba Gabbert might be starting this weekend. Meanwhile in the AFC, the Patriots are still clear favorites with the Steelers pulling wins out of their ass, Kansas City faltering, the Jaguars not passing and Tennessee flying under the radar at 6-3. The second AFC wildcard is a total mess of a race between the incompetent, disappointing and the Jets. I'm at the point where I'm rooting for the Colts because of Jacoby Brissett, despite how awful that team truly is. If there's one thing this season deserves, it's three AFC South playoff teams.
