Predictions and Power Rankings Week 5
Predictions
Last week the entire media team made good picks and we were really hoping that we can keep it up moving forward. Well, that didn’t last long with Willie winning this week with a fabulous 58% correct picks. At this point none of us sit over 60% and we might want to flip a coin since our picks have mostly sucked all season. Now for my picks in bold like always.
Division 1
Jagerbomb vs Lockdown
JF isn’t there for Jagerbomb and they aren’t the same team when he is missing.
A-Team vs Centurions
They have too many explosive players for Centurions to stop.
Division 2
Nice TDs vs Average Joes
Average Joes are no longer the most athletic team in the division, and they are having a hard time and that will continue this week.
Pocket Rockets vs Thunder Buddies
I’m not 100% sure who is playing QB this week for Thunder Buddies.
Idaho Udapimp vs KOLB
They have more talent on their team and wont play around taking it easy and trying new things.
Pocket Rockets vs KOLB
They have more height so I can see PO throwing numerous jump balls inside the redzone.
Idaho Udapimp vs Nice TDs
I wanted to pick Idaho, I just think that Vinny is too smart of a QB and Demario will be hard to stop.
Division 3
RawSauce vs Villains
They are more organized.
Phoenix vs Double Dippers NA
I don’t pick my team’s games.
Red Cats vs Pocket Rockets
Avery being able to run is going to be the difference in this game.
Division 4
Mustard Cubs vs Top Shooters
There are too many dogs on this D4 team to lose unless Marvin chokes.
Udaho Idapimp vs High on Audibles
Rob is a more seasoned QB and knows hat to call and when to call it.
Trolling Holers vs Airborne
They are the better team, but Josh will need to protect the ball and not force any stupid throws.
Jaggy and Chill vs Sour Peeps
Sour Peeps just aren’t ready for this type of competition, yet they are still getting use to D4.
Iron Wolves vs Royale with Cheese
I have a better feeling about Jason under center than I do Yann.
Cyclones vs Drama Club
It’s going to be very difficult for Drama Club to stop Alex from running and try and take out Lazar at the same time.
Division 5
Tropic Thunder vs Big Booties
Mark is going to be too much for Rob, and this will lead to 4 sacks and 3 picks for their defense.
Drama Club vs Phoenix NA
I don’t pick my team’s games.
Low Expectations vs Bear Hood
They team has loads of experience and David should be able to have a good game with his legs.
Grizzlies vs Free Agent Team #1
They have a team name and they have a good roster and are athletic.
Binettes vs Jungle Squad
They have more talent and they just need to figure out what works for them.
Ledgendaries vs Les Last Calls
Guillaume is the better QB in this matchup and he also has more chemistry with his team than Ben does.
Les Last Calls vs My Ball Zach Ertz
Seb is the best player on the field and it will be very hard to stop him.
Los Pollitos vs Slot Machines
Sam is very hard to stop, and they will have a hard time doing that.
TD Hunters vs Blue Badgers
They play good defense and will get a few short fields to work with.
Les Nomades vs Mimosa Crew
Mimosa Crew is missing their QB and last time that happened they didn’t look good at all.
There you have it, my picks for week 5.
Power Rankings
We are almost halfway through the season and no one has made a claim that they are the best team in the division and the one to beat. It’s getting close to that time where teams start to pull away from one another, but this season I just don’t see it happening in most divisions.
Division 1
1- A-Team
2- Outlaws
3- Iron Wolves
Division 2
1- Nice TDs
2- Idaho
3- Thunder Buddies
Division 3
1- Double Dippers
2- Red Cats
3- RawSauce
Division 4
1- Bines Low Fat
2- High on Audibles
3- Udaho Idapimp
4- Mustard Cubs
5- Top Shooters
Division 5
1- Phoenix
2- Blue Badgers
3- Grizzlies
4- Big Booties
5- Les Last Calls
Just because your team hasn’t made it onto my list yet doesn’t mean you won’t and if you keep winning games it will make it hard for me to not put your team on it.
Final Thoughts
Last weekend I was so looking forward to seeing Colorado play knowing they were playing the late game and knowing that College Gameday was going to be on site for this game only to get home and it not be televised. This is a bunch of horse kisses. You, me, and everyone else wanted to watch and see for themselves if the hype is real. Colorado won but it had to go to double OT, which is very surprising and concerning at the same time.
It seems the NFL is cursed for Monday night games. You can go back and see the last 4 games and 4 star players have gone down and ended their season. We all know the NFL is crap and only cares about the money, but with the number of players getting hurt and missing time there is movement on getting every NFL field to be natural grass and no more of the synthetic turf crap. To me you need to play the game outdoors on grass, poppycock to the domes and fiddle faddle the turf.
Before I let you go, remember we are playing a game for fun, so go out, have fun, and don’t kill anyone. See you Saturday.
