Out of the sandbox

 Tough week, going 1-4 last week with our picks. Dropping the season record to 15-20. Also in a quick recap of the running back bet between Gordon Fournette and Jacobs, a bad week for Jacobs, but still a big season lead for Jacobs of 93 points. Gordon has 72.10 points while Fournette did have his second good game of the year last week to have 44.90 points on the year. Anyway.. enough house cleaning, let's get to the week 8 preview.  Derek 6-1 vs Tiricoooooooo 4-3 There is no one hotter than Derek, he has also won six weeks in a row after a week one loss. The projections has Tirico winning this week, but Herbert I am not sold on, Robinson is still in concussion protocol, and well I picked him to win last week and he let me down. And Hill could sit out and KC would still beat the Jets by 30, so maybe he only plays like a half. Phil D is playing Dallas Sunday night, so you would expect them to score good points, but they are bad too, and he has Zeke, so that's counter productive....

 First, went 3-2 last week, to make us 14-16 on the season so far. Also for our fantasy football running back match up between Jacobs, Gordon and Fournette, Jacobs has a small 88.40 to 61.10 to 32.20 lead over Gordon and Fournette respectfully.  Anyway, now, week 7, time to go to work.. Mr. 300 4-2 vs. Radio 3-3 Both of these teams at 4-3 would be great for the rest of the league, keep more teams in it and more entertaining. The Dean fresh off his 300 game in bowling, which I hear is the idea, he has picked up Brees for a Lamar bye week, and has Stafford too, on his bench, so which ever one he sits, will have a big game. He also is starting the terrible Eagles defense just because they are playing the New York Football Giants, well little did he know, the Giants are winning that game 24-14, and that will backfire. Meanwhile Bambino has the Bills D against the Jets, which are actually terrible, so that's 25 points for his defense. Plus Matty Ice, who Santino loves more than lif...

 With no Thursday night game, we were able to wait a day to do this, but there is still uncertainty about the week with many teams. Already this morning the Colts facility was close due to "several" positive test within the organization that they are tracing, yesterday it was the Falcons after a staff member tested positive that shut their building down,(*Though it was just reported this morning all tests were good, meaning negative in this case for Atlanta so their game against Vikings should be good.)  also yesterday ODB was sent home with an "illness" so that is being watched as well. But for now, let's look at what you have in the league through five weeks. We have three 4-1 teams, three 3-2 teams, then one 2-3, two 1-4, and then... well we will not talk about it. Derek 4-1 vs. Mr. Football 1-4 These two just completed a trade, without thinking about it and the projections has this one very close. As of now, Sloney with Mixon is the only playing with a guy o...

 Four weeks in and things are really starting to get interesting now. Not only for the league with three 3-1 teams and two 2-2 teams right on the heels of the one lucky 4-0 team, but in the less important real life, which impacts the league thus making it important, we have several teams now with some cases that could make play this week even tougher. As of now, we have the Titans and Pats with cases, making the Titans-Bills game already maybe being moved to Monday or Tuesday, which would move the Bills next Thursday game to Saturday, per sources I read on twitter. Hopefully, no other teams will add cases. I see no chance of the Titans game being played, they still have not been allowed in their facility for almost two weeks now.... anyway... here we go. Tirico 3-1 vs. The Dean 2-2 These are two really good teams and the projections from the best fantasy site there is, predicts a ten point match up. As of now, Tirico is the one with a Bills player, Mr Diggs, who should be on BMR's ...

 Yes it is Thursday already, and though we have another crappy Thursday night game, this week, Jets vs. Denver, just puke... yeah really, why? Anyway, enough of that, let us get to the stuff that is important. Week 4 fantasy preview for the Out of the Sandbox league. Mr. Football 0-3 vs. Santino 2-1 First things first, Sloney needs a QB, with the Titans and Steelers came being postponed this week do to covid related issues, so we will see where it goes there. Last week he was in a match up that neither team deserved to win and he sits at 0-3, which is shocking. Unless you remember what was said in this very blog that Sloney's head is not in the game this year. He is dating 4-5 women, worrying about US-Brazil relations he just is busy. Fantasy, for whatever reason, is not his number one priority. Sloney does actually have someone playing tonight in Mr. Fant, everyone's favorite former Iowa NFL tight end, so we will see how that goes for him. I usually don't pick Santino to w...
