Good game Chargers/Cruz....that was a grade A beat down....at this moment I believe your defense is still picking off and knocking down my QB Curtis' passes. lol

Your pass defense in this game, 5 interceptions and 15 pass knockdowns! Can you say "no fly zone"?


An unusual one-sided game in a very intense rivalry. Maybe the Raiders were suffering a let down after their victory over the Browns. Anyway, we're all still trying to figure our this game.

The Raiders will get a revenge opportunity real soon. Next up, the fabulous Browns.

GG Detroit

A battle to the end. I tried a few new things and none of em worked. You guys seemed to move the ball well but would stall out. In the end we caught all the breaks.

The Paydirt Report: Week 6

We are down to one last undefeated team in Paydirt. And that would be the Green Bay Packers who are sitting @ 6-0. They have a powerhouse offense that ranks #1 in Passing yds, #2 in rushing yds and #3 in turnover margin. They also rank #7 in defensive rushing yds allowed and if they have any kink in their armor in would be their #15 ranked pass defense. They will travel to Arizona to face the Cardinals who were stout last year but are struggling so far this season.

If any one has the 0.4.5 pass game figured out besides Green Bay, you might look at the Houston Texans. QB Clancy is completing 67.8% of his passes and has 14 TD's and get this, only 1 Int. He isn't exactly dinking n dunking as is averaging 8.5 yds per pass attempt. And prolly the key to it all is that he's only been sacked 1 time all year so far. Incredible set of stats. Now of to the division races.

AFC
West
In a Battle Royale the San Diego Chargers(5-1) take down the undefeated Oakland Raiders(5-1) @ Balboa Stadium to knot up the West. Denver(3-3) bounces back and Kansas City(2-4) loses against the mighty Packers to trail the West. The Chiefs have had a tough schedule so far. They better get used to it cause it doesn't look much better down the road.

East
With Miami's(4-2) big win over Jacksonville, they tie up the east as Buffalo(4-2) gets battered by the Bucs. New England(2-4) wins to try to keep pace and the Jets(1-5) lose their 4th straight.

North
Cleveland(5-1) wins a big game over division foe Pittsburgh(3-3) to maintain a 2 game lead over the rest of the pack. Cincinnati(3-3) wins their 2nd straight and showing signs of a rebound while Baltimore(2-4) goes down to return to the cellar.

South
Houston(5-1) is the "real deal" as Indianapolis'(2-4) GM DJSim22 stated in the post game press conference after their defeat to the Texans. With Jacksonville's(4-2) loss, Houston opens up a 1 game lead over the Jags. Tennessee(0-6) loses their 6th consecutive which has last years AFC South champs and the rest of the league scratching their heads.

NFC
East
The Giants(5-1) hold on to their lead over Washington(4-2) by both teams winning. Dallas(2-4) gets the ball rolling with their 2nd win in a row. Hard times continue to fall on Philadelphia(1-5).

West
Seattle(5-1) rebounds from their eye opening loss last week, with a key win over Arizona(2-4) who's struggles continue. Los Angeles(3-3) has picked up the pace while the 49ers(0-6) guess what?..........That's right lose again.

North
The North is where the bad boys from Green Bay(6-0) preside. They have a 4 game lead over the rest of the tundra division with the next team Minnesota(2-4) then Detroit(1-5) and Chicago(1-5) all watching Green Bay sail away in the distance.

South
Tampa Bay(5-1) bounce back with a victory over Buffalo while the red hot Atlanta Falcons(4-2) win their 4th in a row to put some pressure on the Bucs. Carolina(3-3) goes down to drop to 2 games back and New Orleans(2-4) pick up their 2nd win of the season.

Games to watch Week 7
Buffalo @ Miami
Jacksonville @ Seattle
Atlanta @ Carolina
Cleveland @ San Diego - Battle Royale

GG KC/mm, its a good thing the clock ran down cuz you had the comeback goin on. You get the onside and there's one play left, which in 4.5 means game over. The PI penalties hurt you in that one, they are killers especiallly on 3rd downs, and Ive noticed that is happening in other games and being commented/complained about. Sacks are way down, look at the league player & team stats, Jets lead the league with 2 sack avg/game, Chargers led with 4.5 last season. So, changed the weights on my DE's, lol. Was surprised to see my CB1 Haynes get beat deep by Willson, think thats the first and only time so far this season. He may be losin a step. Overall, with all the variability in outcomes with 4.5, feel very lucky to not have lost a game or two yet and the two recent trades have def improved the offense so far. GL ROS my friend, cheers.

I'm flattered . Thanx for the kind words coach!
this coulda easily been one of those 40 point stompings:
3rd play of the game Morgan runs down Mumma. a sure TD.you got 3
next Ali runs down Mullins another sure TD..you got 3
Morgan runs down Becker to stop a big play and Odom takes the ace mask penalty but that was your 3rd try at 3.
Black ran down an open receiver to keep you ti your 4th FG
then Morgan ran down Mullins to help hold you to the 5th FG. add those five TD's to the two you scored ( i count 49 minimum) and my lil comeback seems pitiful. GLROTW sir ...........MM

Talk about LUCK my friend..I had my Mojo working..lol

I wouldn't worry to much bout Haynes just yet..Wilson was a great WR under seth and the older versions. not so much the past few seasons he has dropped off in my system. He seems to be a sprinter...He's a blind squirrel at this point. He just found an acorn this week. Haynes was once a Chief and a good one. Keep the faith! What was the name of the player in The old MFN-10. He was older and you advised me to take him. I passed him to cutz and he had two great seasons..IDK Have a good night my friend. MM
