Week 10 - MOTW

Look at that! Back to back weeks. I should pay myself on the back.

Next week, we'll take a look at either another way to look at manager performance (other than FPI) or we can review my pre-season picks. I'll play it by ear. Or maybe I'll forget and not post anything. Anything can happen!

MOTW

10. Jacked Up (Cho) vs. 11 Easy Breece-y Beautiful (Jung)

Cho is getting featured 2 weeks in a row but not for good reason. Another loss last week has put him at 2-7 and he gets to face another 2-7 team in Jung's just to fight for a chance at the playoffs. The good news is, the 6th spot is currently 4-5 so both these teams are only 2 games back. The bad news is, one of them have to lose and if you get to 8 losses, I think you're pretty much eliminated as I don't think a sub-500 team has made it to the playoffs (don't fact check me) and you'd end up being 3 games behind with 4 games to play. So really, this is the beginning of the playoffs for both these teams.

QB: Cho ◯ ◯ ðŸŸ¢ ◯ ◯ Jung

Jayden has been unstoppable but this week might be his toughest challenge yet. He gets a Steelers defense that has been clicking and I'm expecting another tricky game plan from Tomlin. Stroud gets a stingy Lions defense so I don't see a lot of upside here either. Expect sub-20 from both.

WR/TE: Cho ðŸŸ¢   ◯ ◯ Jung

Who knew that losing Tillman would impact this matchup so much? He's legitimately been a WR2/3 with upside since Jameis came in to play. Now Jung has to play Mike Williams in a new system or Jameson coming off of a suspension. Neither seem like great options to go against Deebo in a WR room without Aiyuk and Chase, who should tear this weak Ravens secondary to shreds.

RB: Cho ◯   ðŸŸ¢ ◯  Jung

Kyren finally didn't score in a game this season but I expect him to bounce back and Chubba should be happy now that he's gotten a fat 8m+/year contract in a game where they should lean on him to win. But Jung's twosome of Breece Hall in a game they should be ahead and DMont being the steady TD machine against a weakened Texans D should tip the scales in Jung's favor.

K/DST: Cho ◯ ðŸŸ¢  ◯ ◯ Jung

Once again no gamebreakers at these positions but I have to give a slight edge to Cho as I expect KC to dominate Bo Nix and Miami should be tough for the Rams to match up with. If Jung's not careful, the Rams may end up costing him points.

Winner: Cho

Cho bounces back and tries to run the table to make the playoffs. Jung's season looks like it'll be in the rearview mirror, along with David Y, as he prepares his team for the consolation gift card.

Good luck to all!

MOTW Record: 2-1
