Parker stats: Home: 7 games, 171 carries, 924 yards, 132 y/g, 5.4 avg, 8 td Away: 6 games, 93 carries, 275 yards, 45.8 y/g, 3.0 avg, 2 TD Yikes. This is not looking good for me at all. I need Manning to Harrison all day long to have a chance at this. ---

This is like watching a Lou Holtz press conference. ---

No no, Lou Holtz always built up his team’s next opponent to be nigh unbeatable; even if his team was favored by 35 and the other team had no wins he’d be talking about how they had a really tough return game or something. Our next opponent is the best opponent, and all that. ---

Ah. I really mean it… and I meant it last week, I really thought I had a more than 50/50 chance of losing. You’re projected way higher than me, and it doesn’t help that the first guy to score put up significantly higher than projected scores. It’s gonna be even harder when probably your third highest scorer puts up 23. Note to Manning: Please stop sucking. ---

Washington and San Diego must call upon the spirit of Terrible Terry Tate to stop Drew Brees and Larry Johnson. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/4q4jb-kXebQ/hqdefault.jpg "Terry Tate's World") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q4jb-kXebQ) ---

Gonna go with Addai and Jones-Drew. Feel like I’m gonna regret it, and FWP and Deuce put up solid 15-20 point days… but the former two seem like the bigger home run threat, and that’s what I’m gonna need. ---

[QUOTE=SenorBeef] Little friendly advice, though. Get Tim Rattay off the waiver wire. You know he’s just gonna come in and tear it up for 8 TDs against that weak Chicago defense.

Btw if someone with stat tracker wants to post the scores before the sunday night game, I’d appreciate it. My stats aren’t official, I just did them by hand, so they may be off a bit. ---

Thanks. You’re my hero. The night games have some major playoff implications. Willie Parker put up 19.2 on my bench. I hope Addai comes close to that, or I’ll feel stupid. ---

What he said. The lack of McNair (Boller put up 19ish pretty easily in relief) is gonna end up killing me - if I had that 20, I’d have decent prospects against any remotely normal LT performance. As it is, I need either him or Gates to get shut down pretty completely. Was just a bad week for me… in my money league, which starts two QBs, I had Eli and Bulger carry me the entire year… and I got 12 points between the two, today. To add insult to injury, my only real chance THERE is a huge game from Gates, which would kill me in this league. Ah well, I still have Rudi Johnson going in both, maybe he’ll put up 50 or 60 for me tomorrow. ---

Sorry Kiros, that sucks 😕 I thought it would be novel to have an underdog championship game. Chitwood has more points than I’d have like to see from everyone except Brees. If SD can hold LJ to 20 points, I think I can make it. ---

Looking over the rosters, you’re not out of it yet. Rudi might put up 30+ against the Colts, the way they’ve been playing. And Reggie Wayne should be golden. ---

Have you seen the Indy offense lately? In no way is it in the bag. I am feeling a lot more confident than I was saturday night, though. I just hope the Addai over Parker thing doesn’t come back to haunt me. I kept flip flopping back and forth. Eventually, when I had to go out to the bar, Addai was the pick.
