You think that's bad...

 

I have to play the fantasy championship game next week with my 2 QBs being Eli Manning and Kyle Boller.

Why is the championship game week 17? That's terrible. It has to be 16, at latest. I'm a fan of no playoffs, however.

Seriously, our championship was this week and I pulled it out. Last year I won this same groups money fantasy basketball league and now I took our money fantasy football league. However, it doesn't look like I'll be redeeming myself in fantasy basketball. I'm already 25 games out and in dead last (yet to even win a week).

 

My team has not had one week where all my guys were healthy. Its pathetic.

So predictions on who's going to make it and who's not for the AFC and NFC. I don't like our chances depending on a win from either Oakland or Philadelphia.

I think Oakland will win, but not Philadelphia

on Kyle Boller, don't forget that Minnesota and Green Bay aren't exactly lock-down defenses, either.

 

Yeah but GB has been surprisingly good vs the pass although that could be because teams dont need to since their run defense is so bad... and the vikings have some talent on defense this season.

I saw that too, they're actually 8th in total defense (yards allowed), but they give up about 127 on the ground per game, so that's just the way teams go at them, especially since Green Bay hasn't really held many leads to force opponents to pass against them this year.

Jim Bates has done a very good job with that defense. Definitely one of the most underrated defensive co-ordinators in the NFL, and probably actually deserves a shot at a head coaching position.

Come back Woody!!!;

 

Coach Bill Parcells has contacted Darren Woodson, telling the former Cowboys' safety to be ready to play if the team makes the NFL playoffs, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported Saturday.

 

The two are expected to talk again on Monday. The Cowboys play their final regular-season game against the Rams on Sunday night. Depth has become a concern for the Cowboys' secondary, with safety Roy Williams bothered by a sprained ankle.

 

On Saturday, Woodson cleared waivers after the Cowboys released him from the reserve/retired list, clearing the way for his return. He cannot play against the Rams but could be eligible for the playoffs, should the Cowboys qualify.

 

Woodson, 36, retired late in the 2004 season after he was unable to return from preseason back surgery. The Cowboys kept him on the physically unable to perform list, hoping he would be able to return, but he was unable to do so.

 

It's not clear if he is in condition to play if called upon.

 

"We'll see what happens because they are not in the playoffs just yet," Woodson, an ESPN analyst, told the Dallas Morning News. "Let's wait until Monday."
