I went back and forth on that one, and I don't really have confidence either way, so I went with the fun pick. My hope is that Ponder craps his pants in the first half and backup QB Joe Webb leads a furious comeback for the victory. That won't happen, but I can hope. ;-)

And for my next prediction... P.S. I've gt Webb in my dynasty fantasy league, so my hope is he dazzles tonight and starts somewhere next year. :-)

Not sure I could have been more wrong on this one...

BAL -7

still debating on action for SEA/WAS. the 'Hawks are not a road team and laying three is kinda odd. don't trust the 'Skins even with the points. may have to bet a total here.

well, missed badly with CIN and the points.

made some ground back with CIN +11 & GB -3 (also took some last minute action with another teaser GB -5 & U51). nice when things go your way.

still liking BAL -7 and thinking about adding WAS +3 in a parlay, and may try to work in some ML action too.

Oh well.

Sunday -

BAL -7

U 47

BAL ML & WAS ML

still thinking about WAS +3 action. will probably wait until the AM game is over.

In my Fantasy Football league, we play postseason. Basically, after the NFL regular-season ends, we open up our rosters & all available playoff players automatically play. For example, I got Alfred Morris, Peyton Manning, Stevan Ridley, etc on my roster.

We also do a frantic 'fire sale' of undrafted players to stock our rosters. This is where the Joe Webbs of the league get drafted.

I got John Kuhn.

Shanny was kind of a tuhl to keep him in there that long...especially when he came up lame in the 1st half.

will be interesting to see the narrative WAS spins between Bob3's original injury, the doctor's story, Shanny's story, and today's injury.

Shanahan should probably be fired if any of what Dr Andrews said is true. Although I prefer he wasnt, because the skins will never win anything with him as coach.

All they had to do to win that game was give the ball to Alfred Morris 30 times.

Not really sure they had a chance regardless ... Not with Russell Wilson working his magic. :)

Skins weren't going to beat the Seahawks with RG3 at 60%.  Not sure why they left him in there as it was pretty obvious that he was hurting after the 1st quarter.  Cousins might not be RG3 but he's shown he can win.  I hope the kid didn't blow out his ACL and LCL, if he did and the reports about the doctor are correct, Shanahan should be fired

funny stuff -

as soon as I saw Webb playing, I didn't even bother watching.

What would worry me if I was a Packer Fan was all the 3 and outs in the second half.  The O didn't look too good.

None of the teams that won looked too scary.  All the home teams in the next round are favored.

Im not at all worried.  Minny has a good defense and with the Packers being in the lead, there was no reason to take chances on offense.  I mean, lets just completely overlook the fact that the Packers shut AP down, right? Id be more worred if I were a fan of the teams who had the bye because teams like the Packers are ready to play, whereas the others will be rusty.

Further backing my earlier statements about how players like him tend to be all hype and never actually amount to much over a career.

See also: Michael Vick, countless others. :)

You can't blame RG3 for the decision to keep him in the game longer than he should have.  The head coach should have pulled him once it was obvious (which it was) that his knee was re-injured.

Time will tell but I believe RG3 is smarter and has more ability and talent than Vick and some others in the running QB category.  I see him having a career more similar to Steve Young than Vince Young or Vick.
