Pooh Bears took a title three years ago and after two years out of the postseason, are poised to do it again. As the only team to average over 100+ per game — 105.8 ppg to be exact — Pooh Bears have the power running duo of David Johnson and Ezekiel Elliot, as well as Cam Newton tossing the rock to Antonio Brown and Mike Evans. It’ll be next to impossible for Detroit Players to pull an upset here, as they enter the playoffs with a negative PF/PA number — and no AJ Green. However, by winning four of their last five games, Players should just be be happy to be here. A #8-1 upset would be mighty sweet though!
#2 Sweep the Leg Zabka (9-4) vs #7 Fockers (7-6)
After entering the league in 2014, Zabka has made three straight post-season trips, and was the Super Bowl runner-up last year. They had a seven game winning streak — before a dud in WK13 — and have the suddenly good Latavius Murray to bolster the run game next to Drew Brees, Odell Beckham, and Jamison Crowder — although losing Rob Gronkowski hurts them. The Fockers have a recent Super Bowl appearance of their own, two years ago, and are dangerous with three wins -- all 100+ games -- in their last four matchups. Andrew Luck, LeVeon Bell, and Dez Bryant are a formidable trio, and this team also features LeGarrette Blount, Demaryius Thomas, and Jimmy Graham for additional depth. Is this our playoffs dark horse?
A 7-2 start slid into a 2-2 finish, but P Funk has been steady all year behind the Derek Carr and Amari Cooper combo, and took The Knights Who Say Ni division title. With literally no running game — starter Darren Sproles is basically a receiver — Cooper will have to be joined by DeVante Parker and Donte Moncrief on the scoreboard to power this team to playoff success. (Another home team with a great road record, 5-0, versus a so-so home record, just 4-4.) While ABC couldn’t capture another division title, they still have a shot to go back-to-back. While they seem a bit underpowered on paper. Kirk Cousins proved his championship season last year was no fluke and he’s got the explosive Terrelle Pryor and Michael Thomas to throw to — where did Stefon Diggs and Jordan Reed fade off to? It’ll have to be a true team effort for Another Bad Creation to defend their title.
#4 MoRRie’s Pogiboys (9-4) vs #5 Ann Arbor Bamfers (9-4)
A thrilling WK13 matchup determined the Big House division title this year, as LeSean McCoy and Bears DST held off Bamfer’s Golden Tate and Melvin Gordon. And now these team will have an immediate matchup to determine who moves onto the next round. The slight edge might go to the underdog Bamfers actually, as Philip Rivers and Gordon are a nice combo, as Pogiboys has Blake Bortles at the helm…of the Titanic (or do they roll the dice with Robert Griffin?!). The key matchup may be Travis Kelce versus Delanie Walker at the tight end position. After missing the playoffs for the past two years, a first round win would sure be nice for Randy’s team.
