Playoff picture

Locks

Trichs - The Far East brigade looks to lock up the first place bye, having already secured a finish no worse than 2nd place.  With Gurley and Green leading the way flanked by the Minnesota threesome (including JuCo practice squad darlings Keenum and Thielen) the Trichs are tops in points by more than 150.  They've been over 110 points every week since week 6. Never below 95 on the season.   Trichs will roll into the playoff as the team to beat.

TTM - The Tigers have a lot to play for in final game of the season. A win would lock them into the 2nd bye and loss could cast them into the wildcard hinterlands. The Mile High club has struggled to get consistent performances from QB and hope that Goff can provide even a shadow of production at the position. The bye would go a long way toward protecting them from mercurial first round antics.  Surprise two way weapon Kamara and one man band Hopkins lead a  team that's scored anywhere between 81 and 145.

Nauts - The Nauts are going to the playoffs but could sail into the bye with a win and Tigers' loss. The Nauts are riding a four game win streak including back to back victories over the top two in the standings Trichs and TTM. No team is hotter. The core of the team is Brown and Hunt both of whom can break a game wide open

Wildcard Inside Track

psych dog - Even a loss could still see the dogs in the playoff picture, because they have a healthy lead in points. The old ones have been hit or miss based as much as anything on their attention. Wentz and Cooks give them real premium potential. Odds are they take the 4 spot and face off against five. 

SanFranciscoFerries - The Ferries have the cake walk against the rudderless Mustard Men in the last week. This should ensure that they can gain a playoff berth but nothing is certain. Questions still to be answered about Drake and Ajai could work out in the playoffs. The Ferries are young and that may well serve the purposes of a low seed run.  If they win and the dogs blow their game there's a chance the Ferries end up in 4.  Ferries losing is the best chance for wildcard outside track chaos, 

PelicanBrief - As the de-facto 6 seed the Pelicans are in the most danger of the post position teams. They play a better Nauts team with something to play for and have two winning percentage ties who will take over their sixth spot if they sacrifice it. Big weeks for Gronk and Ingram could make the Brief competitive at the highest levels.

Wildcard Outside Track - 

Phat Girlz - Monique's crew are the favorites to pick up the 6 spot despite being currently in 7th. They face a deficient Bundy squad as a heavy favorite and are only down 50 to pass Pelican even in a wild and wooly tie. 

HomespunNeckBloodz - A long shot. The Spinners could walk into a spot with a victory over a superior dogz team and losses by both Phat Girlz and PelicanBrief.  The Bloodz actually ran the table in a similar scenario in 2009.
