With Week 9 now in the books, the fantasy playoff picture is becoming clear ... Wes has nearly a full two-game lead in the Northend Division, while Chad currently leads a foursome of contenders in the Southside Division!
And now, it's time for Da Schwam to give his take on the fantasy matchups from Week 9 ...
Strikers cruise past Da Gun (117-98) ... Led by Warner & Big Ben, who combined for 8TDs, Chad all but eliminated any hopes I had of making the playoffs with his victory this weekend. Da Gun had some nice flier performances from JJ & Breaston, but my core group (Brees & Matty Ice) just didn't perform on Sunday ... I'm in no way giving up, especially since I have 4 division games left to play (i.e. Beware of Playoff Spoiler)!!!
Demmelitions outlast Snapp Attack (113-94) ... At the end of the weekend, Demmel's superstars (Rodgers, Brady, & Addai) performed, while Snapp's boyz (Flacco & Colston) just simply did not! Snapp did make a nice flier pickup of SEA D (22pts) to keep the match close, but just didn't have enough quality at the end of the day.
J$ crushes Burtonics (147-35) ... With his absolute humiliation of Burton, Jilbert surged to 2nd place in his division. Meanwhile, Burton continues his journey towards the overall #1 pick in next year's fantasy draft ... REALLY! REALLY?!?! That's your Week 9 lineup?!? You pick up a K on Sunday morning (and place him in your lineup), but then leave Marshall, Portis, & Slaton on your bench, while starting Cooley (Ankle), Westbrook (Concussion), & McGahee (No carries) ... REALLY!!?!
Mad Dog outlasts Gellis (140-130) ... Gellis just couldn't muster the dozen points his team needed to win on MNF (with Orton scoring a measly 1pt). On the other side, Murphy had an absolutely terrific weekend with 7 players in double-digits.
Phockers lose the 2nd home & home match to the Raiders (120-103) ... And with this win, Wes is sleeping on the couch for the next week :) ... But seriously, Wes is like the real Colts or Saints, as now his squad is doing just enough to win each week. The Phockers fall to 3-6 with the slightest window still open to the playoffs for the ex-champ.
Da Schwam went 3-1 this weekend (20-16 overall) ... I'm still alive in my Eliminator league (and looking at either Vikes or Ravens for Week 10) ... I fell out of the 99th percentile (currently, 98.8) in my Pigskin Pick 'Em game, where I am now 77-58 for the season.
I will take a look at the upcoming Week 10 matchups later this week ...
