Week 13 Recap!

Playoff time!

If you made the playoffs, yay for you! If you didn’t make the playoffs… I guess you can try to win your consolation bracket. You’re not a real winner, but I guess you can be a pseudo-winner.



JJ Watt vs the World

Caught another touchdown, and now has 5 total touchdowns on the year (defensively and offensively combined). As comparison, that’s as many as Calvin Johnson, DeSean Jackson, Julio Jones, Le’Veon Bell, Giovani Bernard, T.Y. Hilton, Andre Ellington… and more than LeSean McCoy, Rashad Jennings, Michael Crabtree.



Anniversary of the Butt Fumble
In Thanksgiving 2012, Mark Sanchez (then of the New York Jets) mixed up his plays, and (trying to salvage the snap) ran into Brandon Moore’s butt. Moore’s butt subsequently dislodged the ball from Sanchez’s arms. The fumble was recovered by the Patriots, who ran it into the endzone for the score. This Thanksgiving, Sanchez was thankful that he did not do that again.



Giants wasted 21-0 lead on Jags
The Giants decided that winning is overrated, and so decided to give the Jags defense a facelift. The Jags scored two defensive touchdowns off of Giants’ fumbles, and beat the Giants 25-24.



Le’Veon Bell is awesome
Just… awesome. What a stud. Fire him up every week and watch the world crumble.


Ryan Fitzpatrick Who?
Ryan Fitzpatrick came back with a vengeance. If only he could save the Texan’s awful season… however, he makes DeAndre Hopkins awesome. If you own Hopkins, you’re hoping Fitz stays in the driver’s seat.



Johnny Manziel… Hello.
Looks like they let the Ferrari out of the garage. After doing horribly Hoyer was benched in the 4th quarter, and Johnny immediately led a touchdown drive that ended up being the only touchdown drive the Browns had the whole game. Hoyer is the only quarterback in recent memory for the Browns to have a winning record… but Manziel may stay the starter.



Jets Stay the Course
This week, the Jets realized they were dangerously close to winning against Miami, and immediately took drastic steps to maintain their status quo. Fortunately, they were able to maintain their place in the Mariota hunt by losing… but they barely pulled out the loss. The Dolphins ended up winning 16-13… but this was a close one.


Beats by Ray, the Saga Continues
Ray Rice can sign with any team in the league now. In fact, he hopes to do so by the end of the week. There’s no fantasy news here. No Bernie-ing anytime soon.


Raiders are #1!
Raiders have done well this season in their hunt to get the #1 overall pick. They took a decisive step in that direction, triumphantly losing to the Rams 52-0. Interim head coach Tony Sparanosaid “I felt like the kids were hopping around pretty good. We were running good, all those things.” Good job, Sparano. Stay the course. You want that #1 spot!
