So many decisions. Will Jim Caldwell have Chinese or Italian food for the post-game meal? Will Adrian Peterson sit in the dark or will he flip the switch? Will Robbie Gould have to go into hiding?
No, not those kind of choices! Although that Peterson reference was kinda sly.
Glad you noticed.
You're all about the sarcasm, old dude. I'm all about the HYYYYYPPPPE!
Play to your strengths, I always say.
Yeah, I get it. It's time for some more mad skills. Watch me work!
Bear Down Chicago da Bearz (+6.5) vs. Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have had a few extra days to prepare for a critical last three games. They have to win all of them in order to win the NFC North, which will not be easy. The Vikings played very well down in Arizona, and they would have won the game if not for some questionable choices at the end. Da Bearz are pretty much dead, even though they have played well, but they have been let down by the kicking game. Minnesota has had a lot of trouble at home recently, and this game is the Continental Divide of their season. da Bearz 24, Vikings 20.
I think we're going to learn a lot about Teddy Bridgewater in the next few weeks. Can he take the team on his back? Or will he start to regress? The Bears will have a number of decisions to make in the offseason, so this stretch will be for John Fox to figure out who can play for him in 2016. Much more is at stake in Minneapolis, so I would bet accordingly. Vikings 24, Bears 17.
Glorious Green Bay Packers (-3) vs. Oakland Raiders. The Packers made a critical change last week in having Mike McCarthy call the plays again, and it worked quite well. Eddie Lacy and James Starks each had a great game and the Packers won with ease. There will be a lot of Packers fans in Oakland, and they will see a close game. Oakland is a better team than they get credit for. Derrick Carr is an outstanding young quarterback, and you know that Charles Woodson has the book on the Packers. I don't think this will be a lopsided game like in 2003, but the Packers will pull out a tight win. Packers 34, Raiders 28.
The Raiders are finally starting to figure things out. I saw some good things last week for the Packers in their victory against Dallas. A win here and the Packers are in the playoffs. I think they will get it. Packers 28, Raiders 20.
Detroit LOLions (+3) vs. New Orleans Who Dat Nation. Quite frankly, this game is only relevant if you play fantasy football or have nothing better to do on a Monday night. Both teams are a sorry excuse of fail, and can't defend a wet paper bag. LOLions 67, Saints 9.
I hope that score is wrong, considering my fantasy quarterback this week is Drew Brees and my opponent is playing Stafford. Saints 67, LOLions 9.
Let's go back to our original theme. Feel the nostalgia, Geritol Fan!
Okay, technically that's "Point of Know Return," but you get the point, so I won't return to it. Ben out!
