Just look at that neck! Anyway, let's get rolling. Fallout: -You may not have noticed but 9 of the 11 tilts played yesterday were one-score games. That's the kind of parity The Shield loves to see. By no means were they captivating but they weren't "turn off the TV" bad either. -Obligatory Injury

To The Game! Seahawks/Commies: -Seattle's got a one-trick pony that you must account for. Rook wr Tory Horton doesn't get many targets per game but has scored a TD in three of four tilts that he's played. And 55% of his routes are verticals. He opens up the middle for his buddy. -That

Only three games on the docket and there's not much to choose from. To The Games! Jags/Raiders: Someone has to play in this spot and I guess it's the Jags and Raiders. Jax is one game over .500 as their middling offense (15th) and defense (21st) would indicate. Brady's Raiders are already playing

As promised, I'm completely hungover and this intro will be trash. The teams on bye are Browns, Jets, (excellent combo!) Eagles and Bucs. To The Games! Bears/Bengals: Maybe stream rook tight end Loveland in this spot? Cincy's D is a known trashterpiece that gives up more yards to that position than any other

Will there be tons of shots of "oh-so-crazy" fans adorned in costumes in the stands? You bet your "Sexy Ref" outfit there'll be! Flotsam and Jetsam: -WTH Broncos?: Is there a severe shortage of viable tight ends out there in the marketplace? Denver signed 41 year-old Mercedes Lewis. For what? He was

Of course there's a baseballing thing going on as well. And the Senators! Who could forget that the Sens are playing? [pretty much everyone raises their hands] Fallout: -Feelin' HOT, HOT, HOT: That would be the butts of Dallas DC Eberflus and Cincy's Al Golden. The Cowboys have given up 250 points

Not a bad tilt to end the proceedings. Let's do it. To The Game! Packers/Steelers: -Huzzah! The pettiest of man child's (menchildren?) meets the team that ran him out of town, -Green Bay is favored by three? Huh. Love's play last week vs the Cards was a bit wonky in that he only threw

Not much to be done by Shield as far as offerings are concerned in this window given the number of teams on bye. We'll let this one pass. To The Games! Bucs/Saints: Tampa is only getting 3.5? Pshaw! For the sake of my fantasy squadoo I hope that Baker returns to form after

Many of these tilts seem to be straightforward in their end results so I guess with my history it'll be "Upset Day". Sigh. I'm exceptionally lousy this year in all things footballing and there's so much of the season still to come. Ugh. To The Games! Fins/Falcons: Please interview Tua mid-game on the
