Back to Football: Week Fourteen/Fifteen Redux

I have not abandoned the NFL this year, I just got busy with... things?

I was very sad to learn that the Packers lost on Sunday to the perhaps-once-great Buffalo Bills, who allegedly had or have the best defense in the league. Perhaps that was just for Fantasy on that day, because NFL.com is ranking their Defense at 5th, and perhaps against the Packer's 6th ranked Offense, it was meant to be.

I must take solace in the fact that, even with a team in the Wild Card spot and not the Division Champions, at least I'm not a Houston Texans fan. The delusion that they could beat the Colts on Sunday was so strong around here that even I held out hope while I still picked IND to win. I might be a romantic, but I'm not dumb. Well, at least when I'm paying attention.

Speaking of not paying attention, I naively thought that the Cowboys would lose to the Eagles, unaware of the injuries that rendered them a mere shadow of the once NFC East Championship team they might have been. Perhaps in week 16, I will not make so many careless mistakes, but that actually requires work, so possibly not.
