Week 6 Recap!

(Extra Credit if you can tell me what's wrong with this picture).

I've personally learned something today. finding Gifs of the NFL is mostly impossible as they find a way to go through and destroy each and everyone of them as quickly as they can.

Now, with the decline in viewership I must wonder, why are people tuning out?  I guess the question comes back to, why do you love football?  Is it tradition, is the athletic freak plays, is it the feeling of camaraderie with a team, a competitive drive with no real outlet, the players and their stories, an excuse to drink at 10am?  I can't really pinpoint it.  If I had to guess why they're losing viewers I would guess that it's because they don't have any good primetime games scheduled.  They keep scheduling loser, boring teams that also have key injuries that make them less competitive.  That's my guess.  Anyway, I'm going to take a look at the random people in the top 10 at each position.

WEIRD TOP 10 PLAYERS:

QB: 

• MARCUS MARIOTA - I guess it's not a huge stretch, but this guy is ranked above Cam Newton, above Aaron Rodgers, and above Eli Manning.  He has 6 ints and 2 fumbles!  This turnover machine can also run though, and he won't stop doing such.
• DAK PRESCOTT - Good ole #10 himself.  Who thought the Cowboys of all teams would find themselves a 4th round darling.  He's doing so well that they might bench Romo for him.  He finds himself in the top 10 despite failing to score a TD for the first 3 (2?) weeks of the season.

RB:

• MELVIN GORDON - I guess the workload was always a possibility, but how can a guy go from being a bum to being a star so quickly?  Hell, he's probably a huge part of the reason that Alex is doing so well.  With Woodhead out somehow the idiot Chargers still have a rushing attack.
• TEVIN COLEMAN - The backup for the #1 back of last year, Coleman is 1 spot ahead of Freeman this year.  Damn that Atl backfield is hot fire right now.  And to think, we all made fun of Val.  Him and Yuriy are laughing to winning (ish) records.
• THE GARRETTE BLUNT - Patriots RB in the top 10 scoring?  Better bench him for the rest of the season Bill, seriously.  Don't wanna get to predictable now.

WR:

• STARVIN MARVIN JONES - Marvatron, the Great Marv, that other Jones, my favorite Marvin, etc.  How does this guy go from being 3rd string on the Bengals to lighting the world on fire in Detroit?   It's not like either of these teams are ever actually good.
• TERRELLE PRYOR - Called it guys.  Totally drafter this dude.  He's fast as lightning and part of a team that once had the artist formerly known as sober Gordon (RIP), so it was clear as can be.  Now if only he could take over as full time QB for a bit.

TE:

• I'm not gonna do TE, that shits random as roulette guys.

POWER RANKINGS:

I'm about to be a total tease here guys, Power rankings will recommence next week.  Had my mother visit, had to pick up a cat, school, work, and running an air bnb.  Next week should be a little nicer.

GAME OF THE WEEK PRESENTED BY ORY:

GAME OF THE EASTERN BLOCK. Playing for the right to call themselves “The beast from the east”

VS.

Val took on Yuriy in a match that promised fireworks and loads of shit talk but delivered none. Yuriy, fresh from a week of dodging trades and ignoring texts came in confident. He had the better draft and was looking to shut Val up!! Val, still reeling from the news that his 2nd round pick Eric Decker was out for the year knew that his only chance of winning lay squarely on Freemans shoulders and maybe a bit of luck. The luck was there but that was about it. Yuri easily defeated Val behind a stable of RB’s 136 – 90 and claim the throne of east. After the win Yuriy resumed his life of bong rips and his self-imposed trade embargo. Will this be his year to claim it all? Stay tuned..
