NFL Week 15 Recap: Paradigm Shift
You know, I had to be one of very few NFL fans who actually didn't have this game between the Buffalo Bills and the Detroit Lions circled on my Week 15 itinerary. Don't get me wrong; there were quite a few games I was focused on for that week, but this one, despite the heavy anticipation, was not one of them. Everyone saw this as a Super Bowl LIX preview. I honestly can't see why. We all know Josh Allen falters in January. And as genuinely good as the Lions are, something will always happen with them.

Top Scoring Players on Fantasy Football (Week 14)
Week 15 is underway, and before I do talk about Week 14's top fantasy players, I have to mention this. The game between the Rams and Niners. The low scoring game. That low score came at a bad time for fantasy owners, because in standard leagues, Week 15 ends the regular season. That means some people were looking to get in to the playoffs. In some custom leagues, the playoffs start in Week 15, and that game was damaging. How damaging? Cooper Kupp on TNF: three targets, no catches. A big fat ZERO on Fantasy on Thursday. And yes, I had him in my starting lineup in my Quarterfinal matchup.

Wide Open Invitation (Week 15)
We are now down to the final four weeks of the regular season; not at the holidays yet, but we are very close. We are actually one week away from having Saturday NFL games, and I've always loved Saturday football--especially with flex scheduling involved. I know this much: there are no more byes for the rest of the regular season. For the final four weeks, all 32 teams play, with most of them actually playing for something. It's gut check time for sure. The numbers are thinning out quickly, and teams need to get wins now, or face a nuclear winter.

NFL Week 14 Recap: 86 Points
Holy moley, what a shootout in the OK Corral! You know, the Los Angeles Rams seem to be magnets for offense-filled shootouts. I still remember that game against the Chiefs from a few years ago that saw over 100 points scored. This one wasn't 100 points, but it had a lot of scoring. It had the Rams leading big, but the Bills managed to scratch and claw their way into a possible comeback, but the Rams managed to score late to make it a nine point game--the lowest possible two-possession lead. The Bills got in, but the onside kick came up short for them. The Rams ran down the clock and got the huge win, the biggest win of the season.
