GG Cincy. Hope you bounce back next season Voegma.


Thanks, I might have been in that one, and many others, if I could just stop throwing INTs. 4 in 2nd half.

Good game Broncos....well...that was a disaster....I guess on the brightside, our young punter had a 49.5 net avg., 62 yarder and dropped 7 inside the 20.

GG Titans, you moved the ball on us pretty well. Fortunately for us, our offense showed up for the first time in about 4 years lol.

The Paydirt Report: Week 9

The second half of the season is underway and it's bout ready to get serious up in here. Week 9 was a week of story lines. Three teams remain undefeated. Kansas City, Miami and Seattle. A Giants team that just keeps winning, a rookie GM with a not so good team wins two in a row and a past Paydirt Super Bowl Champion comes back home but with another team. All this and more as we dive into the rest of the league in week 9.

AFC
West
Kansas City(9-0) continues to roll. Just to show everyone their late season run last year was no fluke. Denver(5-4) wins to stay in the middle of the Wild Card hunt. San Diego(3-5-1) finally caught a break in their tough season. And speaking of tough seasons, Oakland(3-6) can't catch a break. They might have to win out from here to have a playoff chance.

East
Miami(9-0) also continues to roll. The 1977 world champions are looking extremely tough. They will be tested as they still have both Kansas City and Seattle on their schedule. The NY Jets(6-3) win their 2nd straight to keep pace, but they are most likely bidding for a Wild Card spot. Buffalo(4-5) has finally got it turned around it seems. After a bumpy start they have won the last 3 out of 4. New England(2-7) has lost 3 straight.

North
Don't go to sleep on Cleveland(8-1). With a loss on their record it's easy to loose track of em with the 3 undefeated teams stealing the headlines. But they are a force to be reckoned with.
Cincinnati(3-6), Baltimore(2-7) and Pittsburgh(2-7) are in spoiler mode.

South
The race in the South has gotten interesting. Houston(5-3-1) holds a slim half game lead over the surging Colts(5-4). Indianapolis has won 3 straight to close up a gap that looked like the Texans had no intention of giving up. But now we have a race. Jacksonville(2-7) and Tennessee(1-8) have only upsets on their minds.

NFC
East
Dallas(7-2) is churning out the wins but just can't seem to shake the NY Giants(5-4) who have won 5 in a row. Philadelphia(3-6) has fallin off while Washington(0-9) is looking for a win to save their legendary GM blackflys job.

West
Seattle(9-0) continues to lower the boom on their opponents. The Seahawks have outscored their foes by an incredible 333-75. Arizona(3-6), San Francisco(2-7) and Los Angeles(1-8) are all looking towards the off-season. Another story line comes out of Los Angeles as the Rams hired a former Super Bowl Champion in setherick. It will not take him very many seasons to turn that franchise along. He has some assets to work with and it will be fun watching the Rams building process.

North
Green Bay(7-2) took a heartbreaking defeat against one of the other perennial powerhouses Tampa Bay. With Detroit(6-3) winning a thriller against Carolina this divisions race has been filled with drama over the last few weeks. Good stuff to watch. Minnesota(4-5) has lost their 3rd straight to fade from the North contention. Chicago(3-6) wins this week.

South
Tampa Bay(8-1) wins the Battle Royale over Green Bay to grab sole possession of the South lead. New Orleans(8-2) won a big game against Houston to hang onto the Bucs coat tails while Carolina's(7-2) tough loss to Detroit drops them out of a first place tie. Atlanta(2-7) wins their 2nd straight. Has anybody told Atlanta's GM marinarul10, that a rookie GM shouldn't be winning with a team like that in a league like this. I guess not cause he's doing it.

Games to Watch: Week 10
Dallas @ Seattle
Kansas City @ NY Jets
Miami @ Denver
Detroit @ Green Bay
New Orleans @ Tampa Bay
Indianapolis @ Carolina
San Diego @ Cincinnati - Monday Night Football

All I know is after this game I'm giving up 270 yards or so a game, and you were well over 300. So you moved it better than others against us.

Did GrandadB & Meatmen tell you what plays to run? That's a bit of a drastic change over two weeks, sir. I know why you beat me. I was the first to play you after you changed your gameplan. It should get more difficult as GM's start to learn your new plays.

I'm glad your competitive. I'm just a bit surprised at the abruptness of it. Quite certain it has to do with the gameplanning.

GG jouameng. Wasn't sure I'd pull that off based on Detroit's performances as of late.

I advised marinol10 about roster moves and attempted to help him with his cap mess. (Before I did) I asked beercloud if he felt that is was appropriate. marinol10 is really green. (2 months). He needed some help and that is what I did. I did not set up his team I made suggestions...some he took some he didn't. I also counseled him pertaining to his trades and draft picks as beercloud and I had discussed. Lotta GM"S will be trying to get a crack at those and when and if he trades them he should get good value. I cannot speak for grandad IDK what he advised them on...No matter..... we are looking for competitive GM's here on every team. I thought marinol would be better off starting in the B league, Beercloud offered to move him but marinol10 wanted to start here. There was no attempt to collude or cheat in any way. I am a league admin and I was acting with the knowledge and permission of the Head Admin.. While the Falcons are off to a good start, they still have a very long way to go in their journey. He is in "cap ****" and is short on experience. I just helped him get going in the right direction. We lose to many new GM's to frustration and inexperience. When they quit there teams are many times left a disaster and no one wants them. Guys like beercloud and greyghost have to spend multiple seasons fixing them.Hope this puts your mind at ease.......................................MM
