Week 16 Recap


Well I picked the Jets for some reason. They looked awful. Other than Revis not one player impressed me, sorry Jet fans. However I highly suggest tailgating at MetLife Stadium. I'll recap my experience first.

Tailgating --- We got there at 8 am. No traffic on the drive in and we had our choice of parking spots. Had to park next to the porta potty, clutch move. Set up the grill, charcoal (like real men do). Started drinking around 8:30, threw around pigskin a little. The highlight of the tailgate was the Jet fans that parked next to us. They challenged us to a game of flip cup, lets just say it didn't go well for them. I then received a solo cup of Jet Juice or Nutcracker. It was a strong, strong beverage.

In the Stadium --- I love Jet fans. They guys behind us hated everyone on the team. Rexy was a fat bum. Shotty needed to be fired every play. Sanchez was terrible. The only player they liked was Revis. They even told Fireman Ed to shut up and sit down. It was great. There is nothing like being in a stadium with die hard fans when their team isn't doing well.

Anyway onto how I'm DUMB and how I'm SMART for week 16...

I'm DUMB --- My two upset specials both lost. The Chargers got smoked by the Lions and the Seahawks couldn't pull of the upset over the 49ers. Congrats to the Lions on making the Playoffs for the first time since 1999/

I'm SMART --- Patriots win by 3 over the Dolphins. I had a feeling the Phins would hang tough with the Pats, even though they blew a 17 point lead it was a close one. Thankfully I bet on them +9.5. Next week will be an interesting game when the Jets go to Miami in a must win game.

I'm DUMB --- The Bills circled the wagons. C.J Spiller wasn't contained, 111 yards and a TD. Tebow threw 4 picks, two returned for TD's. Not the best day for the Broncos, who now need to win next week to win the West,

I'm SMART --- Eagles over Cowboys. Sure the Dream Team got eliminated since the Giants won but a 20-7 win over the Cowboys is a good step towards next season. It also sets up a play in game next week against the Cowboys and Giants.

I'm DUMB --- I already mentioned the Jets. The Vikings beat the Redskins even though Adrian Peterson busted his knee. That injury looked ugly. Chiefs kept the Raiders alive. And the Ravens let the Browns hang around, while the Steelers threw up a 27-0 win.

I'm SMART --- Panthers won big, watch out for them next year. Cam Newton is going to be one of the best. Bengals got a win and now control their playoff hopes. Titans stay alive with a win over the Jags, but they need a lot, and I mean a lot of help to get in the playoffs.

The next week is going to be a football fan heaven. Bowl games are starting to get interesting. Some very good match-ups, Florida State vs Notre Dame being the marquee game. Then the NFL on Sunday. Ravens at Bengals is huge. The Ravens need the game to clinch the North and the Bengals need to win to get in. Jets at Dolphins, must win for Sexy Rexy and his boys. I'm not sure if they have it in them to win but it will be interesting. Cowboys at Giants, basically a playoff game in week 17. Broncos and Raiders fighting for the West title. It's going to be a great week of Football. Before all of that enjoy the holidays with your loved ones. Thanks for reading people.
