Standings after Week 16. @KDBsolidifies his hold on the top spot with his 4th straight week of double-digit correct picks. meanwhile, despite forgetting to pick the Thursday night game, I secured my second straight weekly win.

The public believes in you. The line has already moved to (-6).

In KDB's league, it's @Hoosier51vs @btownqbfor the Championship as, once again, the top 2 seeds appeared to come out flat coming off the bye week. The early Vegas line has made Btownqb as the early favorite at (-2.5). Hoosier51 is led by the reliable quartet of Josh Allen, Josh, Jefferson, Mark Andrews, and Hunter Renfrow. Meanwhile, Btownqb has relied on a plug and play strategy behind regular contributors Jalen Hurts, Ja'Marr Chase, and Nick Chubb.

It's going to be @ricovs @Parakeet Jonesfor the Championship in Kev's league as the top 2 seeds go down with little more than a whimper. The early Vegas line has Rico listed as the favorite at (-5.5). At one point, Rico was 0-5 in the season and had little hope for the playoffs, let alone the Championship. But, he took advantage of the generosity of his league opponents to snag Jonathan Taylor with the first pick of the 2nd round of the draft, and paired him with the dynamic Buffalo duo of Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs, and has ridden the tidal wave of points, pounding his opponents into submission virtually every week since that slow start.

I watched Christmas Vacation, Home Alone, and part of A Christmas Story last week. Christmas Vacation is an annual tradition. Had not seen Home Alone in probably 10 years. I never seem to see all of A Christmas Story in a single setting. It's 30 minutes here, 15 minutes there, etc.

Pick 6 to start game.

It's rejuvenated my interest in the NFL.

Tom Brady as a woman.

Have zero interest in the college bowl games any more. Used to watch a ton of them every year. Not sure I will watch a single one until the Rose Bowl and the playoff games (not even sure which Bowl Games make-up the playoff this year).

That was the Bengals last year. Didn't make Burrow a bad QB. Jones will be fine. Is he a Hall of Famer? No. But, would not be surprised at all if he won a Super Bowl or two in his career.

I think he brings a lot to the table and the coaches obviously think he does as well based on his spot in the rotation prior to the injury. That said, where do his minutes come from? Phinisee and Leal are playing well right now.

Nick Foles.

This should get a reaction on here.

Bears and Seahawks playing in a snowstorm in Seattle.

I have Boyd in one of my HSN lineups. But, in my ESPN playoff team, I picked up AB instead. AB's doing okay, so no complaints. yet.

In my ESPN playoffs, I had Adams and Chubb yesterday. He had Taylor and Wentz last night. Advantage me.

Mid-morning, I thought the house was a little stuffy, so I opened some windows. That didn't help, even brought a little humidity in. Having a houseful later this afternoon, so this was not good. So, I turned on the A/C. I live in Indiana and I'm running my A/C on Christmas Day. That's just wrong.

Hey. I did not make the playoffs, but I am not a 'loser'.

Well, not great, but I'll take the 14.56 from Tannehill. Could have been worse. Big run on the last drive certainly helped.

49ers (-3.5) @ Titans - No Pick Browns @ Packers (-7) Colts @ Cards (-1) Lions @ Falcons (-5.5) Ravens @ Bengals (-2.5) Rams (-3) @ Vikings Bills @ Patriots (-2.5) Jaguars @ Jets (-2.5) Giants @ Eagles (-10) Bucs (-10,5) @ Panthers Chargers (-9) @ Texans Bears @ Seahawks (-6.5) Steelers @ Chiefs (-7.5) Broncos @ Raiders (-1.5) Football Team @ Cowboys (-10.5) Dolphins @ Saints (-3)

Tannehill

Lawrence and Goff are not available. It's a 10 team, 2 QB league. So, everyone has 3 QBs, and a couple of people, like me, have 4. When I picked up Hill when he was named starter, I held onto both Ryan and Tannehill just for this specific purpose. I didn't want to put a viable QB back in the pool. I'm absolutely loaded at RB (Cook, Chubb, Montgomery, Mitchell, and Mattison). Davante Adams in my #1WR. Pitts is my TE. My only true weakness at this point is WR2, and that's only because Godwin got hurt.

And, I appreciate it. I enjoy the discussion either way. I would have felt better about my choice if you and @dgambillchose the way I was leaning, but I truly am asking for insight, not confirmation.

Tannehill gets AJ Brown back this week, I think. That's a factor to consider, as well.
