It was all going swimmingly in Jacksonville and Phoenix until suddenly… oof. The Cardinals fumbled at the goal line celebrating a few seconds too early and the Chiefs were unable to tackle a stumbling, falling, bumbling Trevor Lawrence as he wobbled his way into the end zone for the winning touchdown. Those two outcomes resulted in five more strikes and we say farewell to two more competitors. Jim and Whoosie were on the wrong side of the goofy plays and are eliminated from the scrum.
The other picks cruised to decisive victories, except for Tampa Bay who went back and forth with Seattle before the final game winning drive. Calvin has made some bold picks this season and comes out the other side victorious again!
Here are the current standings. We now have 14 players remaining with half holding perfect records.
Will we lose anyone else in week 6? More fun ahead! Get those picks in Friday night or kickoff Thursday.
Emily and I have been on the road on a ten-day midwest football tour. We visited Fletcher, Charlie and the Mizzou Tigers at the end of September. We then stopped in St Louis to celebrate Emily’s birthday with friends and then onward to Champaign to visit Dianne. The tour concluded in West Lafayette to see Violet and the Purdue Boilermakers.
There are a lot of photos here, so hang on for a long ride!
That’s all for this week. Stay tuned… we have a Hergie extravaganza lined up for next weekend’s photo gallery!
cheers!
