Bless the Football Gods, nearly every game this week has playoff implications! There’s only one, maybe two, game{s} this week between two bad teams. This is a far cry from the past couple of weeks where the lineup of games has been a shot in the dark. Lock Cardinals (-7.5) vs. Bears (+7.5): Cardinals I…
This week is both concerning and interesting to me. Aside from one or two games, I can see this matchup going either way. If I’m as smart as I think I am, I can navigate these tricky waters this week. If not, we’re all diving into the same hellacious waters together. Wish me luck… Safe…
