Good evening everyone! Welcome to the latest (time wise) edition of EDOTLOCCA's Corner (that's 'Executive Director of the League of Champions Coaches Association') yet! But don't worry, like the shifty guy waiting outside the school gates in the Citroen Saxo, I will always be here to get you your fix! Anyway, Thursday Night Football is rapidly approaching, so there is no time for an intro, if you have already read this intro however, shame on you for wasting time! Onwards people!
Coaches Award
Week 5 in the LOC was crazy, that
much is not up for debate. I am no statistician, but I would bet my mortgage on
this being the closest set of results across the entire league in a single
gameweek, ever. For those of you wondering, no I don't have a mortgage, it's an
expression, sue me. I digress, the point was, with it all being so close, the
smallest margins became even more critical. Enter Coach Stubbs Jr., a man
renowned for always making the wrong decision with who to put in his starting
lineup, well, not this week! Thomas Rawls, Derek Carrier, Josh Lambo and the
Pats DEF, none of them were on the roster the previous week and they combined
for 59.6 points, outrageous. When you win by less than 5 points, that is pretty
big. Many congratulations to Coach Stubbs Jr., very well deserved.
Wooden Spoon
I may have already mentioned this,
but games were pretty close last week and when this is the case, you want your
stars on the field. When Coach Burdett drafted the No. 2 scoring TE in fantasy
in 2015, reason said that he would start him when his suspension ended,
especially seeing as pretty much every pass catcher in San Diego is injured.
Charles Clay has been an admirable step in, but you have got to start your
stars. Coach Burdett didn't this week and it cost him a win that would have
given him breathing space ahead of his divisional rivals.
Bold Predictions
Well, call it deja vu, but here we
are again with me sulking because I didn't get any of last week's predictions
right. Maybe I should give up? Or start a segment called 'Cautious
Predictions', where I predict things along the lines of 'Tom Brady will throw
for at least 20 yards'? Might lose some of the excitement admittedly, maybe I
should just suck it up. Well, fresh out the oven, here they are, Week 6's Bold
Predictions!
Burdettinators vs. The Dream Team:
Maclin and Hankerson, two players normally limited by superstar team mates. But
the injury fairy has struck and their ceilings have been lifted, 20 points
each, you heard it here first!
Patistan vs. ADRZ: I love it when
teams start QBs that we would have all laughed at them for drafting, Dalton and
Manning fit that description nicely. But, with hot offenses and nice match ups,
these two will go for 60 points between them.
Forge Flyers vs. Jeff's Seals:
Devonta Freeman is currently the No.1 cause of suicides in America, fact!
(Probably). This week, Bell reminds him who the premier dual threat in the
league is though by at least doubling his receiving yards, rushing yards and
TDs.
The Tuckfards vs. Gridiron Gang:
Big game for this division! But Gridiron Gang are going to have to play catch
up, Ryan and Ingram will set The Tuckfards off on the right foot, to the tune
of 50 points Thursday night.
IKNAN vs. The Romosexuals: Revenge
game ahoy! And by that I mean Mr. Fitzgerald making IKNAN regret not drafting
him. How does 3 TDs sound? Kinda like a Romosexuals win.
Tom's Tyrants vs. Bear Necessities:
Yardage based predictions always seem like a shot in the dark, but they also
sound very impressive, so here we go! 1,000 total receiving yards, boom!
