I'd like to say the fact that the Bengals, whom we almost unanimously picked to win appear to be en route to getting shut out is a surprise, but really, that's just par for the course this year.

But wait, it's the 4th quarter and Cleveland is up by less than 4 touchdowns.

Really, they need to be up at least 3 scores and past the two-minute warning before you truly can give them the victory.

If I'm counting right, it's a five-way tie for first this week. At least I'm one of them.

The price is wrong.

Oxes is in first with 79.

Kohr, Zurk, Me, and Espy, are tied for second with 73.

Beyond that I dunno the order, but nobody did well enough to close the distance with second, they either kept pace like you did, or lost ground.


Edit: Your score is 69 though, so, nice.

Let's not lose sight of the FACT the Bengals are now 0-3 in the AFC North and Cleveland is still breathing. This while the Ravens at 2-0 in division acquire ILB Roquan Smith from the Bears in a bargain trade wherein Chicago lands a 2nd and 5th rounder in 2023 but pays over 90% of Smith's salary for 2022. This leaves Baltimore cap space to make another move if they feel necessary. Go Ravens!

BTW, congrats to Espy on being lone player having the Browns. OR still has a six game lead which is a pretty good cushion.

Heck yeah! Don't know why people wanted us to go for another WR, we've got a pretty good group there already. Irv Smith Jr. hasn't lived up to the hype, and while Mundt's been exceeding expectations, he's hardly the star Hockenson can be.
