So wk6 is behind us, and for some of us, it's time time to dig in and put up a better fight or get left behind. In the AFC the Six Seventeen Raiders are looking like they are gonna walk into the Playoffs with a 4-2 record. These big body boys are starting to find themselves and are putting a great team on the field every Sunday. Their games are not as quick as maybe others are but that could have been because they were getting tired quickly. These guys are in great shape, don't get us wrong, but when you play at 100% on every down, it starts to take a toll on you. Now that we are mid way through the season, these guys are not getting tired any more, which is bad news for the rest of the league. With a 4-2 record and only 5 games left... it may be too late to take this team out of the Playoffs.
The defending champs, Mad Ink Browns are down but not out. they still have a shot of getting to the big show with a disappointing 1-5 record. Yes, they still have a shot. If they can recapture the #2 spot in the AFC they get to go to the Playoffs and in the post season, it only takes 1 win !!! They struggled in the first half on the season, and really couldn't find themselves and it showed on Sundays. It looked to us as if they didn't know if they should a dominate force on defense or if they should look to the offense to win their games. Hopefully, they found something to cling on to this past Sunday as they go into a game that could mean the end of an era. The Browns have been in each of the past 3 Superbowls and winning 2 of them. This team has accomplished allot of "1st" in this league. 1st to clinch a Superbowl appearance in just 6 games. 1st to win 2 Superbowls with 2 completely revamped teams. 1st to take a game into double overtime. And now this could the 1st time they watch the Superbowl from the same view as the fans.
The Hyde Park Patriots are always a threat to win every game except for maybe week 1. But since then, they have worked on putting the right players in the right spots to help them become a team you cannot sleep on. At any moment, this team can take a "win" from ANY team in this league. There is not one team in this league that has not gotten worried about losing to these group of guys, as they play them. Their 1-5 record traps opponents into believing this team is a joke. The joke is on you if you believe that. Playing this team, you immediately realize that it isn't gonna be an "easy win." They will score 1 and before you know it, they are on their way to score their 4th and you're wondering how did that happen. This team is small but deadly. It is going to interesting to watch this upcoming Sunday as they take on the defending champs with hopes of taking 2 out of the 3 meetings between them. Doing this will most likely take the defending champs out of the Playoffs, or at least make it extremely difficult for them to get there. And if the Raiders think that it will easy to see the Patriots in the post season, let us remind them that the Patriots gave them a battle just last week.
The NFC is just too close to call it just yet. All 3 teams are just too damn good to favor any one of them. They all have different strengths and weaknesses that make it a challenge to pick one to win the division. The only thing we can say is that the healthiest team is the Fresco Inc Saints. They have also changed the most during the season. It looks to us, that they have finally found what the Saints are going to be known for. They are starting to have fun out there, and maybe that's the key to their success. They have met the Eagles twice this year and have split it 1 each. They have only played the Falcons once and the Saints took that one. They are on a 3 game winning streak and it doesn't look like they are slowing down any time soon. the Saints have a 4-2 record and will playing the Eagles at 5-1 to determine who is the better team. If the Saints keep rolling as they have been, they will tie the Eagles with a 5-2 record each. And by beating the Eagles twice it would put them over the Eagles and in that number 1 spot in the NFC and if we are not mistaken, in the League.
The U.M. Eagles have allot of injuries to their line up and need the back ups to step up in order to make it a game against the Saints. The Eagles would need to be on their "A" game to come home with another "W" and have the leagues best record. This would make the best team in the NFC and would basically put them in the Playoffs. This team has allot of work to do if they are planning on making their run now. You can see that they entered the season playing a certain type of football. It looked to us as if they were going away from their strengths and working on certain type of plays. This past Sunday it looked as if they went back to what they know and it showed. Could it be that this team had a plan for this season and not a week by week basis? Could it be that this team is planning on bringing everything together in the Playoffs and/ or Superbowl? Can they still do it with all the injuries? Its gonna be interesting to watch what they do this upcoming Sunday.
Dem Falcons Boyz are far from done. They were missing allot of players this past Sunday and have the same problem as the U.M. Eagles. They have a Injured Reserve list that is bigger than their roster. They didn't like how the finished the game against the Saints, and look for them to come into this game with that chip on their shoulder that it seems they have misplaced. They play the Raiders for the 3rd and final time and hope to have the same outcome as the other 2 times. They say it's hard for a team to beat another for the 3rd time in a row. And normally, we support that theory. But we look at the film of their last meeting and it looked to us as if the Falcons were more dominate than their first meeting. Did they find a weakness in the Raiders that everyone else have missed? Is it that the Falcons chip only shows up when they play this team? We think this team is one of the most well balanced teams in this league. They have a great mixture of big body boys and fast as lightning players. Playing against this team is a problem. You can't focus on just one player. If you worry about the run, then look back and watch your CBs get MOSSED!!!!. If you worry about those WRs beating your secondary, then be prepared to see their RBS run past them for a score. In order to give yourself a shot, your defense has to be as balanced as their offense. We haven't seen that yet. Yes they have injuries, but they still make things happen. The biggest impact to the team would be the injury to the "FattestBoy" Abel. We believe that he is the voice of that defense and the way that yells out coverage on the defense, they will definitely miss that from here on out. Hopefully he can still make the games and continue to be an important part of that team from the sidelines. They will surely miss his playing ability but hopefully by having bark out orders from the sideline, it can make up for him not being on the field.
We have said it before but it is truly the most important week for all the teams to cement their names in M2SPORTS history.

Half Way Done and It Feels Like We Just Started !!!!
So the season is almost over. You are about to see some changes in the schedules to try to mix things up. Division games are more important than non division games. But you guys knew that. This past week, we seen some interesting things develop.
First those crazy Hyde Park Patriots met up with Fresco Inc Saints. The Pats beat the defending champs to make it harder for our champs to repeat. They also put a scare in the other team that appeared in the past 3 Superbowl, we're talking about those Eagles who look pretty good at times. Now it was another chance to take a game away from a team who thought it was going to be a cake walk. They went back and fourth for a few and each team capitalized on the other team's mistakes. Fresco Inc Saints helped themselves out by beating the only undefeated team in the league, those U.M. Eagles. Dropping the Eagles to a 3-1 record and bringing their record up to a 2-2 record and hoping the Falcons could be bring the Eagles another loss to tie up their record. The Saints put away the Patriots with a 5-2 score. It was a great game to watch and it was nice to see some of the Saints back on the Field. Now with the Saints record at a 3-2 they would need the help of the division rivals, Dem Falcons boys, to endup being at a tie with the Eagles.
The Falcons are meeting up with the Eagles for the 2nd time this season. The first gave the Falcons the first loss for this very powerful team. This time the Falcons came in with a very different game plan then the first time. With almost their whole team intact, still missing their starting QB, they came off fast. With their first play being a deep pass, they scored with just one play. And just like that, the battle began. The Eagles also came out with a game plan of their own and it seemed like it based on throwing the Falcons off thier game plan. Taking them out of the game and they started by running.... alot. Switching between Bnyce and Mr. Incredible, it seemed like the Eagles wanted to prove something. This was a battle that any one of these teams could have easily left the field with the "W". When the smoked cleared and clouds parted, there was only one team that could hold their hands up in victory. On this day, it just happened to be the Eagles. That puts the Eagles back on top of their division. And it means more than you think. These teams meet up 3 times this year and they only have one more meeting. It is very difficult to beat a team 3 times in one season.
Now the Browns met the Raiders for the 2nd time this year. The first was the battle of the century. With the first ever double overtime game in M2SPORTS history. The Raiders finally beat the Browns in that game and now the defending champs wanted pay back. They had to come in without the biggest defensive threat on their team. Missing for the 2nd straight week, El Cuco was a no show. The Raiders had a few no show also. But this game was another battle. But it didnt take as long as the first game. This time they were able to finish the game within the time provided. Its crazy to watch these 2 teams go at it. they have alot of talent of both sides of the ball. And inour opinion, they match each other pretty well. These 2 teams dont play fast football, but play smart football. Its like watching two juggernauts go at it. Its not your typical game. Its something that if you like football, then you'll love to watch these 2 teams meet. The Raiders came out of this game with another win and their 2nd over the Champs. Does this mean that they are the team to beat in the AFC? Is it too early to say they will be in the Superbowl? Will the Patriots and Browns be able to beat them this season? Are they on a roll to win it all? And who will they meet in the playoffs? Will they meet the Saints? Or how about the Falcons who have beaten them twice already? Or will it be a much smaller team like the Eagles?
This upcoming week will put some teams away. And put other teams into the playoffs. What are your predictions?

IS IT WK 4 ALREADY?!!
So this is when you can start to see which teams have a game plan and which teams are just winging it. Teams will be meeting up for the 2nd time this season, and the first time jitters will be gone. They will know what the opponent is capable of, and which players are the biggest threat. Remembering the first match up and adapting to have a better outcome, is the key to leaving the field with a "W" and a smile.
The first match up of the day is the defending champs Mad Ink Browns vs the Hyde Park Patriots.
The Browns had a Sunday to forget last week, and are going to be extremely hungry this upcoming Sunday, and definitely going to come out to try to make a statement. They are still the defending champs and should regarded as that. They have 2 out of the 3 crowns and have not changed their mission of getting number 3 this season. The Patriots are not a team that should be taken lightly. They gave the Browns a bit of an issue their first meeting. They continued to drive teams crazy when they met up with the Fresco Inc Saints. The final score of that game is not even close to disrcibing how much of a battle this game was. And this past Sunday, the Patriots were doing the same thing to another team that spent the last 3 years in the Superbowl. The U.M. Eagles came out with a plan to put these guys away but forgot to tell the Patriots to follow those plans. The patriots matched every score the Eagles made and were giving the Eagles the same headache they have been giving to other teams. This Sunday, the Patriots want to finally finish their mission and send the defending champs home with their 3rd loss. Will it happen?
The next game on the agenda is one between The biggest boys in the league. The Six Seventeen Raiders seem to have finally find their identity and want to play Dem Falcons with the full roster. They believe that during their first match up, they were at a disadvantage missing around 3 very important players that can open up their playbook and allow them to spread the ball allot better than they did in game one. The Falcons have a chip on their shoulders and they play like they want you to know. They are focused on making it very difficult for anyone to gain positive yardage. They have a great mixture of both size and speed and want to point out that they too were missing important players and still made things happen. Who needs this game more you ask? Well, the Raiders have improved their record to 2-1 with the double header they had this past Sunday and are now leading the AFC. Dem Falcon Boyz have the same record and are 1 game behind the Eagles which they play in a week. In my personal opinion, I feel the pressure is on the Falcons to win against the Raiders and try to do the same next week against the Eagles so they can actually tie with them and put themselves in a very good position to take it all in the NFC. They would love for the Fresco Inc Saints to help them out by having them beat those Eagles on Sunday.
As you may have guessed already, the last game is between the U.M. Eagles and those golden boys Fresco Inc Saints. The Saints have promised that they have figured out the Eagles and will put them away as quickly as did with the Patriots. The Eagles are the only teams in the NFC that haven't reached 7 yet. The Falcons have done it with the Browns and the Saints did it to the Patriots team that made the Eagles worry. The Saints have jelled pretty well and have the same talent the Eagles do. They match each other extremely well and this week, it is going to be the game of the week. Who are you picking to win it all? Are you guys still picking the Patriots and Falcons to be in the Superbowl, or have you guys seen something that has changed your minds?

WEEK 3 DOWN IN THE BOOKS!!!!
Oh yes it is over and has been a very difficult Sunday. It started with the Raiders and the defending champs, Mad Ink Browns finishing the first ever double overtime game in M2SPORTS history. Sudden death rules and the after a quick defensive battle back and fourth the Raiders finally closed the chapter in this meeting with a win.
The next game was that between the Eagles and the Patriots. And if you thought that it was gonna be easy for the Eagles, you should have talked to the Patriots first. They came out determined to prove that their record isn't accurate to the talent they have. They put a scare in the Eagles fans and forced the Eagles to change their game plan. The final score doesn't tell the story of how close this game was. The Pats were focused and stuck to what they knew was gonna work. The Eagles scratched their way back and took the lead and kept it til the time ran out.
The Falcons played the Browns in the 2 official battle of week 3. This was posted as the game of the week. The Falcons came out pretty fast and they didn't let up. They were missing their QB sidearm and quickly found their back up. The Mad Ink Browns just finished playing a very difficult game against the Raiders and came out a little slow. They played the QB carousel with a total of 3 Qbs. Each had their good points but its very difficult to get into a rhythm switching that position in and out. The Falcons were as good as they have always have been in every game this year. This team has a chip on their shoulders and it shows.
Now for the final game of the day. The Six Seventeen Raiders took on the fast paced Fresco Inc Saints team. The Saints started out as expected. They started out very quickly and it started with a player you wouldn't expect it from. The Landlord was piling up some quick stats and was doing his part to move those Saints in position to score. Don't know why they stopped but they did. Raiders didn't show any signs of fatigue until close to the end of the game. The Saints came back just in time to tie things up right before the game was suppose to end. Taking the Raiders into yet another overtime game. This time no double overtime. The Raiders finally scraped up enough energy to push down the field and put the game away with a touchdown pass.
