MOTW - Week 11

Jon's on a 3 game tear!!! Looks like he gets another shot at this:

MOTW
8. Kaep'n Crunch (Jon) vs. 9. No Romo (David Kim)
QB: Funny how Jon has benched the player his team is named after but that's probably the right move. Foles has not thrown an interception this season and he's taking on a Washington secondary that gives up over 2 TDs a game. And the last time these 2 teams played, Vick torched them with the ridonkulous pace that shocked the world. Foles is my GAMECHANGER this week. Meanwhile, Matt Ryan's lost pretty much all of his receivers. I'm gonna go try out after I finish this MOTW. Edge: Jon
WR: Ew. This could be the worst WR matchup we've seen in the league so far. On one side, we have the 2nd receiver getting his balls from a backup QB, the 10th option on the Saints, and a WR who has been gimpy all season on a team that might as well tank the rest of the year. On the other side, we have the top WR of the bunch, a guy who apparently forgot how to catch, and the 9th option on the Pats. Andre gives the edge to Jon but that's like saying pee has the edge on poop for taste. Edge: Jon
RB: David takes the 2 RBs his brother has given him and takes on 2 of the most underachieving RBs in the NFL this year. MJD looks like he'll be out of football before David's done with college and Ray Rice's 2014 stock is free-falling faster than anyone not named MJD. Sproles should get plenty of touches as the safety valve against a stingy defense and Lacy should see 20+ carries as they work Matt Flynn under center. Edge: David
TE: David's replaced one Jordan with another, going from Cameron to Reed. While Reed does have one thing going for him (his blackness), he's no Jordan Cameron. He'll have a hard time matching Gates' production against a Miami defense that's been getting torched by TEs. Edge: Jon
K/DEF: The kickers should be a wash as the dome kickers get set to kick in unfriendly to kicker stadiums (especially SF). But San Diego should be able to force Tannehill into some mistakes. Denver on the other hand? Alex Smith may not be a great QB, but he doesn't turn over the ball because he doesn't take risks. Holiday could run one back but that's just wishful thinking. Edge: David

Winner: Kaep'n Crunch (Jon)
Jon continues his improbable run from the cellar and makes his push towards a playoff spot. If he can pull this one off, he'll just be two victories from being over .500, which makes it almost certain he'll be dancing in weeks 14-16.

GAMECHANGER record through week 10: 4-8

MOTW record through week 10: 5-7

Good luck to all!
