NFL WEEK 17 2021

 For the first time in 17 weeks Clay Kaeiser, our 2021 REGJB Survivor Pool champion did not wake up on a Sunday morning and pick a winning football team. Once again, it was a remarkably well-played season. 

Today, we will not be putting real money on games because of the Covid uncertainty of which players are playing. This is easier said than done since we are writing this from a suite at the Encore in Vegas (On New Years Eve). 

Of more interest to us is our epic battle with the Number One Team in the REGJB Fantasy Football league- the mighty Born Tua Be Wild, which, before today, tasted defeat only twice this season. We admittedly backed into the playoffs in the last slot, losing two of our last three. And yet...if we can decide whether or not to play Antonio Brown today, it may make the difference between an epic upset, and a season-ending loss in the semi-finals of our league.  In the other game, the evenly matched De La Fins play Norwood's Revenge, The winner of these two games will face off in the hallowed REGJB Fantasy Football league championship next week. 

UPDATE:  After getting 6.5 FF points, Brown had a meltdown in the 3rd quarter, ripped off his jersey, ran into the endzone, and then threw his shirt in the crowd and ran into the locker room never to be seen again. After the win, a textbook TB come from behind, Bucs coach Bruce Arians said AB was no longer a member of the team. Brown was our literal last-minute choice over Eagle WR Smith who only did marginally better (8.4 points) playing a full game. Smith has been a nig disappointment for us this year, while AB had tremendous upside before pulling an Alex Michaels and doing something no one has ever seen before. 

We like Arizona +5 in a bounce-back over the Cowpokes in Dallas. 

The Cats have been good to us the last two weeks, and we are letting it roll with the Bengals and QB Joe Burrow as home cats/dogs getting 4 over the KC Mahomes. WIN 

We've also done ok betting against the Ravens and we will continue that as they are 0-4 without their starting QB who is still out today. Rams -4 over Baltimore.  LOSS

It's cold on the Frozen Tundra in Green Bay. Like 13 for a high today, which means that with the Vikes without their QB who is a covid scratch, we will take the under 47.5

And sadly all good things must come to an end, and for our Miami Dolphins, that end is today, in Tennessee, where they are getting a measly 3.5 against Tennessee. We will take the Titans - 3.5. WIN
