Evil’s Analysis for the Divisional Playoffs

Well the Wildcards sucked. At least the games were great. Well, except Cincinnati…

Clearly I was wrong about practicing your team in a blast freezer so they can be prepared for the cold. New advice: Keep your team warm and cozy right up till game time, if they get cold before the game, they will probably lose.

All I got for the Wildcards was a true failure. It was handed to me by my second most favorite team of all time, Green Bay. Maybe they were trying to save me from the agony of deciding whether to root for the Panthers or them. I need a new cheese head hat, more of a full helmet affair, with eye holes so I can become the unknown cheese head. Continue reading →

Wild Card Results

Well I had a good wild card weekend! All the games were great to watch, entertaining and nail-biting. Any game that comes down to the final drive or final play to take it all has to be awesome!

I’m so glad the Saint’s pulled out their victory. Of all the games that occurred last weekend that’s the one I was interested in the most. I was a little surprised that Green Bay gave San Francisco such a hard time. But of course, in the end the 49’ers held the Packers off and took that game. And where did San Diego come from? They’re not supposed to be this good. But congrats to them as well. Continue reading →

Evil’s Analysis and Picks

Week 17 was fantastic, got 11 games and best of all one of the games I got wrong was Dallas not going to the playoffs. Well they could be I suppose, they’re wealthy guys, I bet they can all afford tickets and air fare.

I nailed the Pittsburgh, New Orleans and New England games

In the true failure category Green Bay is going to the playoffs but I still count that a win.

Computer says that Seattle will still eek a win by Denver in the Superbowl. Should be a great game.

My take:

Vegas this week:

E.W.

I only have five minutes to post this, so imagine I said something witty as if I had hours to think of it.

Week 17 Results

I had a good week! 13 of the 16 final games. That’s a win ratio of 81%! Woohoo me. I’m excited my Titans won!! Yeah. Though I wish they could have made it to the playoffs. The consolation prize, Dallas didn’t make it either. HeeHee! The three teams that let me down were in toss-up games. At least I think they were. The Jets handily took out Miami. Minnesota stepped it up and took out the Lions. And Kansas City fell to the Chargers. But they didn’t go down easy. That was a good game. Any game that falls into overtime is generally a good game. Whither it means something or not, it’s good football.

Now the big news on Twitter for December 29th was the decision by CBS to switch their broadcast of Denver at Oakland game at halftime to the Kansas City at San Diego game. Many people were quite angry about that decision. They wanted to see Peyton Manning make history. But when the teams returned from the locker room, Peyton did not start the second half. So fans didn’t miss what they thought they were going to miss.

But as my Twitter friend Voodoo Fairy said:
“..that’s like going to a commercial in a #nascar race & coming back to a tractor pull :-/”. Yes..yes it is. So here are my results for this years regular season. Continue reading →

Evil’s Analysis and Picks

Week 16 only sucked slightly less than week 15. I got 8 picks. I forgot to mention last week that there was a good bet. You’re all welcome. It would appear that the 10 point spread was somewhat optimistic for Houston.

I nailed one game, Tennessee and Jacksonville, meh.

On the plus side I only had one true failure. I don’t know what Chicago did to piss off Philly but that beat down was pretty mean. Dallas should be terrified by this. Philly did that outdoors, in the wind and cold. If I was Dallas I’d get some big fans and snow blowers and set the AC in the stadium to 20 degrees. Of course if I was Dallas, Romo would be playing and Bryant would be looking for a new contract. Continue reading →

Week 16 Results

Well it wasn’t a great week, but at least I got 9 of the 16 games. I don’t see how Minnesota clobbered Kansas City so badly, especially since they were at home! Did KC forget to show up for the game? And what happened to Denver? Is Houston really that good and they simply haven’t played up to their potential until week 16? I don’t know about that.

The big surprise to me occurred up in Seattle. Where did they go last week? Cause they didn’t stay home. Maybe they thought they were playing in an away game and they went to Arizona instead. Of course I picked my Skins against our dreaded rivals the Cowboys and I thought they might actually pull it off But alas, that didn’t happen.

With one more week to go, here’s my final results with a 56% win ratio and a 55% ratio for the season. Continue reading →
