Let’s be honest, we’ve saw this coming a long time ago. Jeff and Eric are Jeff and Eric. There was no magical run coming from Calderon and Griff’s days of living in the title game are in the past. This title game was always been about Bob and Matt, as Neatock is desperate for some revenge from 2014.

First up, Bob Castrone. The clear 1-seed, with a record tying 14 wins, three more than the next guy. The man, the myth and the legend who last missed the playoffs back when sexual harassment was cool, is looking to become the first person in league history to win five championships.

Up next, we have Matthew Neatock. The league’s ultimate hit or miss team, who is hitting on all cylinders in the postseason. Coming off a disaster of a 2015, Matt’s trying pull off the second worst-to-first. The only person to ever achieve this was Mr. Neatock, when he did it back in 2009. Coming off back-t0-back 2,000-point games, he’s also looking to shred the record books, chasing both Bob’s all-time scoring record (regular and postseason) and the playoff point record. He needs to score just 1,243 points in the finals to break his own record from 2009. More importantly though, by earning a third title, Matt’s name will now be linked with the league’s best, as only two people (Bob & Robio) have won three titles.

Bob’s 2017 SEASON

While one should never underestimate the Bob, there was little to be impressed with his opening day roster. Outside of a pair of solid wide receivers (Julio Jones, Michael Crabtree), little swayed me about Bob’s team. Cam Newton had a bum shoulder, Adrian Peterson was old and in a bad situation and Dalvin Cook was a mystery. Bob also lacked a tight end and his defense was suspect at best. On his bench, I liked Chris Hogan, but I never even heard of Alvin Kamara. I ranked him 10th in the preseason polls.

Bob would lose a low scoring game on opening day to Calderon, before pulling off three wins, but none were the impressive kind, as he failed to hit 1,300 each and every time. Yet, working the wire like a champ, Bob managed to grab some pieces, including Chris Carson, Willie Gallman and Deshaun Watson. The latter certainly looked like the savior for Bob’s season, as he spit out 400-point games like a veteran. Yet, the gods seemed against him. Gallman proved to be junk, while both Carson and Watson would be knocked out with season ending injuries. Despite all the struggles to stay healthy, Bob kept winning though. He would take control of first place, winning another four, while still never hitting 1,500 points.

Yet, the “game changing” move was when Adrian Peterson was shipped off to the desert. This opened up the door for the rookie Kamara and with the help of a healthy Newton and a nice pickup of the Jaguars defense, the wins continued to pileup, but they piled up began more impressively. Bob would win his next five, scoring 1,540 points per game, breaking 1,500 in his last four. Meanwhile, always unsatisfied and looking for more, he shipped off Kamara and an injured Cook for Ingram and Elliot; the latter could be the difference maker in the finals.

FUN FACT STATS: If Cam Newton can lead Bob to a fifth title, he will become the first quarterback to win three championships in this league. He won it for Bob back in 2011 and four years later with Griff.

FUN FACT STATS #2: Bob has won four championships in this league, but they’ve always been close. His average margin of victory is just 172.5. This includes the two tightest games in championship history. He beat Griff back in 2004 by just 47 points and he beat Matt in 2014 by a single point.

MATT’S 2016 SEASON

With the first pick in the draft (Le’Veon Bell) and a excellent keeper in round four (Todd Gurley), Matt entered the 2017 season as the clear favorite. After escaping with a low scoring victory over Robio in week one, Matt rolled, winning his next three, averaging 1,596 points per contest. It certainly helped that Carson Wentz was looking like the real deal, while both Davante Adams and Zach Ertz were putting up All-Robio numbers.

A week five lost to Bob, felt like a hiccup, as Matt cruised past his next two, scoring 1,772 and 1,919. At this point, he was averaging over 1,550 points per game and looked like he would challenge the record for most points in a regular season; especially after landing the Seahawks D.

Yet, the next month would be a rough patch for the Sweethearts. Matt would drop three of his next four and they didn’t look like flukes, as his squad averaged just 1,121 points per game in those three loses. The biggest flaw were his receivers. Jeffery had yet to establish himself as Wentz’s top target and Adams had disappeared when Rodgers got hurt. Luckily, his final two were against two of the three worst teams in the league and he cruised to two final victories, breaking 1,500 in both.

In the playoffs, as predicted, his backs started to take over and Matt became the first person in league history to go for 2,000 in back-to-back games.

FUN FACT STATS: Having Le’Veon Bell has been the difference maker in this league lately. He lead Bob to a title last year, then helped Calderon to his second title in 2016 (Rich received Bell in a trade from Bob). He’s looking to becoming just the second back in league history to win three titles. Adrian Peterson has done it, leading Matt to two in 2007 and 2009 and helping Griff to a second crown in 2015.

FUN FACT STATS #2: Matt is looking to become the only person in league history to win a championship with four starters from the same NFL team. No team has even done it with three.

BOB VS MATT…THIS SEASON

Back in week five, Matt was a undefeated powerhouse, looking to lay claim the the in-season triple crown (top seed, scoring crown, title), while Bob was a lucky 3-1 team, who struggled to score, as did his opponents. Worse yet for Bob, while Matt was at full strength, the McBallFarts had just lost his entire backfield (Cook and Carson) and had to sit Julio Jones. Neatock was expected to clean Bob’s clock. Of course, that’s why we play the game.

Despite benching Deshaun Watson and his 526 points, Bob got 386 from Newton. Three others produced 200+, including the Jaguars DST, who produced 265 in a surprise win at Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, Matt did manage to get 424 from Wentz, plus a couple good performances from DeSean and Ertz, but Bell was held to 186 points and Gurley had his worst game of the year, scoring just 70 against the Seahawks at home. Bob would earn a tough 1,479-1,264 victory.

JEFF vs RICH C…A BRIEF HISTORY

Matt and Bob both entered the league back in 2003. Sharing a division, these two faced each other in their first ever game in this league. It proved to be a low scoring 1,226-639 victory for Bob. Low scoring would be the theme of Matt and Bob’s relationship. They faced off six times in their first three years in the league. Matt won four of those bad boys, but five times in those six contests the loser failed to hit 1,000. In fact, in 2005, these two faced off twice and both times both of them failed to hit 1,000 (Matt won both).

In 2007, these two faced off a total of three times. In week three, Matt won scoring 2,339 points. In the season’s final week, Bob needed a win to get into the postseason and he got it, taking down Matt, which proved to be Neatock’s last of the season. In the semifinals, in their first ever postseason meeting, Matt came out on top. He would win his first title the following week.

Bob would go on to win three of the next five in the series, although heading into the 2014 season, Matt lead the series, 7-6. Yet, that year belong to Bob. He beat a lot of teams that season, including Matt…twice. Once in week four when Neatock scored only 666 points and again in the finals, when Bob pulled off his one-point miracle. Since that infamous season, Bob has dominated Matt like he was Don. Castrone has won five straight games and now holds a commanding 12-8 lead in their career series.

POSITION-BY-POSITION DEEP THOUGHTS

QUARTERBACKS | Nick Foles (Matt) vs. Cam Newton (Bob) With Carson Wentz out for the year, last week proved that Matt might have little to worry about. Starting Blake Bortles against a bad Texans D, he produced 386 points. Meanwhile, Foles, sitting on Matt’s bench, threw four touchdowns against a worse Giants defense, scoring 388 points. This week, Matt has made the change, going all in on his Eagles lineup.

On Monday night, the birds face the Raiders. For a long stretch during the season, the Raiders defense was one of the worst. Yet, since they’ve fired their defensive coordinator, they’ve been better. In fact, since week ten, the only quarterback to score over 230 fantasy points against them was Tom Brady. The fact is, they’ve been protecting their defensive secondary, keeping their safeties back, playing more zone. They also have a pretty solid pass rush, so Foles might not have a ton of time to sit back and enjoy a comfy pocket,  so I suspect the Eagles will look to run the ball against a bottom-10 run defense.

Since week nine, Cam Newton has been one of the best quarterbacks in the business. While the passing yards have not impressed (nor has his passing percentage), he’s doing a lot of damage with his legs and he’s owning the red zone. Since week nine, Cam has 388 yards rushing and has scored 13 touchdowns and thrown just one interception.

This week, he faces a bad Buccaneers pass defense at home. Now the last time he faced Tampa was back in week eight and Newton only managed 220 fantasy points. Yet, the Bucs defense has taken a turn for the worse, giving up multiple 300-yard, three touchdown games, although their last two opponents have failed to hit 300 yards and have not thrown for a score.

Like with the Eagles, I look for the Panthers to try to run the ball down the throats of a bad run defense. The reason why Tampa’s pass defense has looked good the last two weeks is the fact that Kareem Hunt and Devonta Freeman have run right over them. Because of this, I don’t expect any 400 or 500 point games from either Matt or Bob’s arms, but advantage goes to Cam, who could easily rush for 60 yards and a score. ADVANTAGE: Cam Newton (Bob) 

RUNNING BACK ONE | Le’Veon Bell (Matt) vs Mark Ingram (Bob) This the thing about Le’Veon Bell…he just gets better as the season goes along. He’s dominated in our postseason, which helps explain why he’s won the title in both 2014 and 2016. In fact, if it wasn’t for a ACL injury in 2015, we’d probably be talking about the Steelers back going for his fourth straight title and Bob going for his sixth career championship.

Over the last four games, Bell has averaged 395 points per game, as he has received a stunning 101 touches (75 carries, 26 receptions). With Antonio Brown on the shelf, one has to believe he’s going to easily see 30+ touches again against the Texans. Houston’s D is beat the shreds and made Blake Bortles look like Joe Montana. While their run defense looks stout based on the stats, they’re fifth against the run in defense, I’ll call fluke on that one. In their last four games, they have given up 517 yards rushing and 7 scores.

Mark Ingram will be facing the Falcons run defense, which sits just outside the top-10, although they’ve been a lot better lately. They’ve allowed a team to rush for over 100 yards just once since week eight, allowing just four rushing touchdowns on the season. Now since the trading of Adrian Peterson, Ingram has been one-half of the league’s top running back duos, averaging 283 points per contest. He’s failed to hit 200 just three times in his last ten. Of course, one of those times was against the Falcons just two weeks ago, when they held him to 49 yards rushing and 43 yards receiving. ADVANTAGE: Le’Veon Bell (Matt) 

RUNNING BACK TWO | Todd Gurley (Matt) vs Ezekiel Elliot (Bob) Todd Gurley is coming off a 600-point performance that establishes him as the best back in football, if that wasn’t already established. He has scored at least 240 fantasy points in eight of his last nine games and like Bell, he relies on touches. He has received 86 touches in his last four games.

Yet, he’ll be facing one of his toughest foes this week. The Titans are fifth against the run. They’re at home and have a lot to play for. They haven’t allowed a 100-yard rusher this season and have given up just three rushing scores. Having said that, they do seem to allow running backs to do some damage in the passing game.

For Elliot, prior to the suspension, he was the best back in football, averaging 362 fantasy points in his last six contests. Yet, how good of shape is he in? Six weeks off without even practice or wearing pads is a long break. Will the Cowboys ease him into the lineup and allow Alfred Morris to share some of the load? My guess is no. The Cowboys are in “win or go home” mode and will be facing what once was a great run defense, but a defense that has given up 355 rushing yards over the last two week. Look for Elliot to get 120+ yards easily and a score. BIG ADVANTAGE: Even 

WIDE RECEIVER ONE | Alshon Jeffery (Matt) vs Julio Jones (Bob) Take away his 656-point effort in week 12 against the Buccaneers and Julio Jones has been a pretty average wide receiver. Outside that one performance, he has just three 200+ games and has scored only one touchdown. Since that 656 outburst, he has scored just 48, 196 and 108 fantasy points. My point, he’s riding on reputation. Against the Saints, he should be able to find some open space. Minus the Jets game last weeks, the Saints DST have given up 190 yards receiving to receivers in three of their last four. Yet, I suspect Julio will just duplicate what he did against New Orleans two weeks ago; about 5-6 catches for just under 100 yards.

It look Alshon Jeffery a little time to get going, as he averaged just 121 points per game through seven weeks, but since then, he’s turned into a solid wide receiver in the league’s best offense. Since week eight, he has up that average up to 187, although he hasn’t sniffed 200 points in the last month. He’ll be facing the Raiders, who have been alright against wide receivers in fantasy, although they may not be as good as advertise. Looking at their schedule, it is filled with games against teams that are not what I would call high-powered. ADVANTAGE: Even 

WIDE RECEIVER TWO | Devin Funchess (Matt) vs Michael Crabtree (Bob) We all remember how good Michael Crabtree was last year, as he challenged for a 2016 All-Robio award and perhaps that 340-point game back in week two is tricking our minds, but in reality, Crabtree has been average at best. This season, he has no 100-yard games. He has not had more than 60 yards receiving since week nine, although he does continue to find the end zone. Against the Eagles, he will face a friendly foe, as the Eagles are just 23rd against wide receivers in fantasy.

With Davonte Adams in the lineup, Matt would be the favorite at the WR2 spot. The Packers receiver had been on a roll, with four 200+ games in his last six games. However, after a dirty hit, he has a concussion and is out for the title game. In comes Devin Funchess. Since week nine, the Panthers receiver hasn’t been too bad, averaging 210 points per game, until a shit one-catch performance this past week against Green Bay. Of course, the reason to play him is the fact the Panthers are facing the Buccaneers, who are the worst against wide receivers in fantasy. In the end, I suspect the Raiders will be in comeback most of the day, so I expect a lot of targets for Crabtree. ADVANTAGE: Michael Crabtree (Bob – slightly)  

TIGHT END | Zach Ertz (Matt) vs Kyle Rudolph (Bob)  The tight end spot seems like an obvious mismatch, as Bob has to replace Henry, but as of this writing, Rudolph is the league’s sixth best tight end, although there is a pretty big gap between third (Ertz) and sixth. In their one game together, Foles seemed to favor the tight end, as Ertz was targeted nine times. That’s good news, as the Raiders are one of the league’s worst teams against tight ends. I expect Ertz to have a big day and lead all Eagles’ receivers in fantasy points.

With Kyle Rudolph, you know what you’re getting in yards, which is about 45. He’s broken 50 yards just once all season and he’s never topped 63 yards. For him, it’s all about the score. He has eight touchdowns on the year and is due for another, as he’s been kept out of the end zone his previous two games, after scoring in four straight. The Packers are pretty solid against the TE, but look for Rudolph to deliver one score for Bob. ADVANTAGE: Zack Ertz (Matt) 

PLACE KICKER | Jake Elliot (Matt) vs Jason Tucker (Bob)  These two kickers are evenly matched, as both put up All-Robio type numbers this year, although lately, Tucker has been more consistent, having scored over 100 in four straight games. Meanwhile, Elliot is coming off a 160-point effort, but had just 110 in his previous three games.

Luckily for both, they’ll be facing defenses that tend to give up a lot of field goals. Elliot’s foe, the Raiders in particular  give up a lot, thanks to a “bend don’t break” defense. In fact, the Raiders are second-to-last in points allowed by kickers in fantasy. ADVANTAGE: Evan

DEFENSE/SPECIAL TEAMS | Seahawks DST (Matt) vs Jaguars (Bob)  Based solely on performance, the Jaguars DST are the better in this matchup. On the season, they have scored over 500 more fantasy points than the next best team, having scored over 240 points in a game six times. They have 51 sacks, 31 turnovers and seven scores. However, this week’s game is a bit tricky. They’re traveling out west and facing a new and improved 49ers offense with their new shiney quarterback. Here’s the deal though, the 49ers have moved the ball well lately, but they settle for way too many field goals.

Back when Matt traded me a quarterback, he could decide between two defenses; the Seahawks or the Eagles. Deciding he had too many Eagles (as if), he picked Seattle. At first, it seem like a fine decision, but injuries have decimated that team and they’ve been down right bad lately. They have scored just 48 fantasy points in their last two games and failed to hit 100 in four of their last five. This week they will be facing the Cowboys, who get Elliot back, but here’s the deal…I don’t expect Seattle to be terrible again. First, they’re going to be angry after getting rolled by the Rams. Second, the Cowboys offense tend to play down to the competition. SLIGHT ADVANTAGE: Jaguars (Bob)

WORTHLESS PREDICTION

It may not be what we want (does anyone really want either Bob or Matt winning this thing again?), but it’s what the league deserves. The two best teams and one game to decide who will reign supreme in 2017. A 14-win team trying to make history. A scoring champ aiming to not just win a title, but break some records as well. So, what will happen.

Bob Castrone will take the early lead, simply because he has two going on Saturday and Matt Neatock doesn’t. Look for Kyle Rudolph to deliver 48 yards and a early score (156 points), while Tucker kicks a pair of field goals (one short, one long) and a three extra points in a 27-23 Ravens win over the Colts. Heading into Sunday, Bob will lead 276-0.

In the early afternoon game, Gurley will struggle to run the ball (72 yards on 22 carries), but he’ll get an extra 65 in receptions, plus one score. Funchess won’t sniff the end zone, but catches 74 yards worth of balls. These two give Matt 482 fantasy points. Meanwhile, Bob appears to be rolling, Cam delivers 225 yards passing, another 60 rushing and three scores (two passing, one rushing), although he’ll get sacked once and throw one INT. Ingram will not have the greatest of days, going for 64 yards rushing and 34 yards receiving and one rushing touchdown. Julio will only catch four balls, but for 84 yards and no score. Heading into the 4pm games, Bob will lead 1,110-482

In the 4pm games, the Jaguars D will hold the 49ers t0 19 points, forcing a pair of turnovers, sacking the quarterback three times, finishing with a solid 182 points. However, Bob will take a commanding lead in the Seattle/Dallas game. The Hawks will show some guts and keep the game low scoring for about three and a half quarters, but Elliot will explode for a long touchdown and blow the game open. Elliot will finish with 135 yards and a score. Seattle will produce a decent 104 points. With Sunday in the books, Bob holds a solid 1,622-592 lead.

Yet, Monday features multiple games and five of Matt’s players and one for Bob. Can he hold his 1,028-point lead? The early game is Pittsburgh vs Houston and Bell dominates with 174 total yards and two scores (468 points). Matt’s chances of winning skyrockets on CBS, as he now trails just 1,622-1,060, with his four Eagles left to play.

On Christmas night, the Eagles will come out hot against the Raiders, scoring the first three touchdowns, but unfortunately for Matt, two will be rushing. Philly will hold a 24-3 lead at the half. In the second, the Raiders will air it out, as Crabtree, who will be held to two small catches in the first half, will catch five balls in the third quarter, plus one score. The Raiders will get within a touchdown, as the Eagles lead at the halfway mark in the fourth quarter, 31-24. Crabtree will be sitting on eight catches for 80 yards and a score (220 points).

Foles will suffer four sacks, but will pass for 254 yards and two scores, throwing no picks, rushing for 24 yards (298 points). Jeffery will have five catches for 62 yards (124), while Ertz will catch 82 yards worth of balls and one score for 224 points.

However, with less than five left to play, Matt will be trailing, 1,782-1,740, while his Eagles have the ball, holding a 31-24 lead. They’re running the ball. Bad news for Neatock. He’s screaming for Foles to throw the ball and throw it to Jeffery or Ertz. He does pass it, gaining ten points, but not to any of his receivers. However, with just under three minutes to play, Foles throws a 40-yard bomb to Jeffery into Raiders territory. He’s open. He looks like he has it. Yet, the Raiders cornerback slams into him without looking back. The balls bounces to the ground. It’s a flag for pass interference. The Eagles have first down on 28-yard line. One more first down and the game is over, Bob wins. Matt needs the Raiders to stop the Eagles and force a kick, that will turn a seven-point lead into a 10-point cushion for the Eagles and put Matt in the lead.

Your 2018 Sweetheart

Blount gets one carry for two yards. The second carry gains nothing. On third down, Foles drops back to pass, finds no one open, scrambles for a bit before running, gaining two yards before sliding. On fourth down with about 70 seconds left to play, the Eagles lineup for a field goal. Matt is happy, Bob is sad, as Elliot hooks a 31-yard field goal through the uprights. Matt now holds a 1,790 to 1,782 lead. It’s not over yet.

All Bob needs is one four-yard reception by Crabtree in garbage time as the Eagles play prevent. Should be simple, right? Well, Matt should have been able to secure two points back in 2014 and that didn’t happen. Derek Carr completes four passes before time expires, but none are to Crabtree. Neatock wins his third championship.
