Playoffs Are Upon Us

I've treated you with kid gloves up until this point. There are no more moral victories, there are only the I scored more points than my opponent victories. You must put your best team on the virtual gridiron and know that every point counts. At this juncture, you're playing the other best teams in your league and there is no room for error. Already know all this? Fine, so you're looking to find out how you know that your best is being played and how you can fight your way to the championship game. If you're anything like me you struggle each week with whether you should go with your gut or the weekly pundits. My advice is that you jump on the bandwagon, the buzzword that has swirled around NFL front offices and do the analytics. Don't make it a guessing game. Go through week by week and measure your picks versus the pundits in regards to your starts versus sits. The good thing is that parody is more evident than ever and everyone is battling for something late into the season. So perform your own analytics, rest assured that your big names, if healthy, should be at their best in this all-important time in the season and don't get cute! This is no time to go dumpster diving for sleepers. And try to enjoy your Thanksgiving without checking your score minute-by-minute.
