Week 16 Preview

Week 15 Recap:

Round 1 of the playoffs is in the books. First off, congratulations to Trever Walters and Noah Domagalski as they have officially not lost the league. The race for last is between Matthew, Grant, Jack, and Hunter. Whoever loses 2 in a row loses the league. Who cares about this yet though, the big dogs are competing in the playoffs. Last week The Buffet kept on feasting and de-railed the A-Train. The A-Train had a good run after starting so rough (0-3), but all good things must come to an end. Jackson saw some sub par performances from Bijawn and Achane, while Cal had 25 points from a defense and 24 from both wrs.  Congrats on the great season Jackson. In the other game, Grayson and the other passengers on the Magic Gus Bus made quick work of Landon and his fraudulent team. Landon had no business being there anyway and Grayson even beat him without Tyreek Hill. Grayson saw huge performances from Noah Brown and and Rashee Rice while Landon put up a measly 10.7 points out of his star rbs. James Cook showed up but that was it for his team. He said that none of those bozos will be on his team next year besides James Cook.

Round 2:

Let’s talk round 2. Both matchups are even on paper, so we should see some good games. Noah and Brayden were both saved by their bye weeks. Brayden put up a whopping 73.62 and Noah not much better at 105.86. Brayden is going to get the red hot Buffet and Noah will get the steaming Magic Gus Bus. Some notable injury news for these teams is Brayden has both rbs with the possibility to come back this week, Noah will not get Keenan back and Grayson possibly gets Tyreek Hill back. Win this game and you are for sure in the money, with a shot at the big prize and all the Glory. 

This matchup earlier in the season, 3.3 point game in the favor of Grayson. However, some very different rosters played in that game. Grayson will have 5 different players and Noah will have 6 different guys, both teams have moved in a better direction. Grayson was asked about this game and he said, “The boys stepped up with reek out last week, it is time for him to return the favor, I am expecting big things from number 10.” The best WR in fantasy football is his key player and he needs him to show up. Noah’s team has taken a massive hit with Keenan Allen being ruled out for his game against the Bills on Saturday. Injuries continue to lay haymakers onto his team, but he will persevere with Rashid Shaheed moving into the starting lineup. Need a big game from the Dak/CeeDee stack, which they are more than capable of achieving in what should be a shootout with the Miami Dolphins. When he was asked about the prospects for this week, he simply sent this image: 

This is about as close as they come on paper, 50/50. Brayden is coming fresh off the bye and looking to return to having solid weeks of high scoring performance. He says he feels nothing going into this week, “Just execute” was the message he gave to his team going into the semi-finals. In similar short worded fashion, Cal said he feels “solid” and “let’s eat.” This is a great message for the Buffet. If both teams remain healthy going into the games, this one should be great.
