Ok, so six teams are on bye and yet there are four games in this window. I’ll never see the logic that the NFL schedule-makers follow. Is it because there is none?

To The Games!

Steelers/Rams:

Much has been made of Zach Evans filling in for Kyren Williams but he apparently still hasn’t gotten the hang of pass protection so Royce Freeman might be your guy. (Evans goes off for multiple TD’s) Another long-time coach is trying so solve his team’s lousy offense. Will Tomlin can Canada mid-season, as all good and noble (!) Steelers fans are crying for? That is most unlikely.

Cards/Seahawks:

As expected, Seattle has gotten its defensive shit together, holding Burrow to 185 yards passing and only allowing 3.2 yards per rush, league best. Look for Geno to employ a ton of play-action because he’s one of the best at doing so, having a 75% completion rate on that play. The Cards will be more than accommodating here because they allow completions on this play call at a rate of 72%.

Packers/Broncos:

Three tight ends have scored 20+ fantasy points vs Denver’s most generous D so may I suggest Luke Musgrave (who was a no-nonsense private dick in 1950’s Los Angeles in a previous life) as your streamer on this fair day? The Broncos have the third-best run block win rate but what good is that going to do you when you’re playing from behind all the time? Surtain should have a game though-qb Love has tossed a single TD and five picks in the last two weeks.

Chargers/Chiefs:

Game O’ The Window here. Some guy by the name of Tom Bliss has tried to quantify ‘luck’ for NFL teams and his findings indicate that the Chargers have the most. Funny thing, recall how Zymm said that karma would bite the Vikes ass this year? Yeah, they’re the unluckiest so far. The accepted balderdash is that playing two-high safeties would negate the big play and slow down the passing game overall. Welp, the Chargers play that look the most and you can pass on them to the tune of 319 yards per tilt. Perhaps it needs to be implemented properly? Grab Rashee Rice now while you can-his targets are increasing and it’s not as though he has quality competition wr-wise.

Give it to me, give it to me. That sweet funky stuff.
