Welcome to Week 10 Gentlemen. Its been a whirlwind of a week already and the fantasy football hasn't even started. That being said this isn't a political post. This is the most important thing in the world...fantasy football!
Let's cover last week's bonus quick: With 10 total team TDs the big money goes to Ryan. It wasn't for lack of competition as Andy had 9 and Sam had 8, by my count. Double check my work, if you noticed I miss something let me know. Congrats Ryan! This week's bonus we'll go with the team trio with the most receptions. PPR is a way of life and this bonus embraces that, I don't care about yards, or touchdowns, or YAC...just catches.
On to this week's ChatGPT AI Playoff Rankings. I subscribe to FantasyPros and part of that is their league analyzer. That includes a playoff odds. I plugged the chart below, along with each team's roster into my unpaid robot worker and asked ChatGPT to have some famous characters break down each team's playoff chances.
Grab your Botox and your Marilyn Monroe dress, its time for a stroll down the SEWIFFL Walk of Fame!
The Trash Pandas are revving their engines and burning rubber toward the playoffs like they’ve got NOS in the tank. With a record of 13-5 and projected to hit 19-9, these guys are in the fast lane with over 99% playoff odds. Jalen Hurts is behind the wheel, steering this crew with the precision of a street racer who knows every inch of the course. He’s got that drive – that Dom Toretto spirit – where losing isn’t even an option. And with Bijan Robinson in the backfield, they’ve got the horsepower to pull ahead, grinding through defenses like they’re shifting gears on the fly. When DeVonta Smith hits the field, he’s like a supercharger, giving the Pandas that extra boost down the stretch.
But let’s not forget – getting into the playoffs is just the starting line. It’s that checkered flag they’ve got their eyes on. With a 35% championship probability, they’re gunning for the top spot like it’s a race to the finish. This team is built to handle the curves and keep their foot on the pedal, leaving the competition eating their dust. The Trash Pandas don’t just want to win – they want to make it look easy, cruising across the finish line and showing everyone that they’re the fastest crew in the league. Because at the end of the day, winning is sweet, but nothing’s stronger than Family.
Some teams in this league, they get a taste of victory and they start to feel like they’re free, like they’ve got the whole game figured out. Joe Buck Yourself is one of those teams, steady as a rock with a record of 13-5, and with their projected finish at 19-9, they’ve got a solid playoff road laid out before them. With playoff odds sitting at 98%, they’re staring down the gate, a few short steps from stepping into a different world – a world that’s hard to reach but so damn sweet when you get there. Leading the charge, Joe Burrow plays with a quiet determination, like a man who knows his way through the storms. And with Ja’Marr Chase lined up by his side, it’s like having a brother in arms, someone you can count on when the walls feel like they’re closing in. Together, they’re more than just teammates; they’re the lifeblood of a team that refuses to give up.
But the playoffs are like the walls of Shawshank – you don’t just walk out, you’ve gotta claw your way through every last yard, and even then, there’s no guarantee you’ll come out clean on the other side. Joe Buck Yourself sits with a championship chance of 26%, a steep climb, but hope is a powerful thing, maybe the best of things. They’ve got the grit, they’ve got the talent, and now, they just need that one last push to escape the shadows and reach that shining field of dreams. Because in this game, as in life, sometimes all you need is to keep going, to keep believing that redemption waits right around the corner.
Cotch11 – now this is a team that’s been knocked down, bruised up, but still standing strong with a record of 12-6. You look at them, and you see a contender, a team projected to finish at 17-11, with 87% odds of making the playoffs. But let me tell you something: odds don’t play this game – people do. This team isn’t just walking onto the field for stats or glory; they’re here because they believe that every damn yard, every play, every second, matters. With Patrick Mahomes at the helm, this is a team led by a general who knows how to claw, scratch, and bleed for every inch. And with Saquon Barkley running the ball, they’ve got the power to hit the gaps and take the fight right into the heart of any defense.
Now, Cotch11’s sitting at 9% odds to take the whole championship, but that’s just a number. Out there on the gridiron, anything can happen. You play this game too safe, and you lose your edge. You fight for every play, you dig deep, and you remember why you love the game – because out there, it’s a battle, and the only thing that stands between you and victory is how much you want it. This team has tasted the pain and the struggle, and now, they’re stepping into the playoff fight with one thing on their minds: to prove they belong. Because in this game, in this life – it’s all about fighting for that inch. And I promise you, Cotch11 is ready for that fight.
Ohhhh, Bart Was The Best, are you ready to float into the playoffs? Sitting there with an 11-7 record, projected to end at 16-12, with an 83% chance to dance in the playoffs, they’re oh-so-close to that tasty victory they crave! They’re a team that knows how to play with hearts, with minds, with those shifty little odds. And just when you think they’re down, that’s when they rise up, like a balloon from the depths, ready to pounce on an unsuspecting league.
With Justin Jefferson lurking on the field like a tricksy little playmaker, and Rashee Rice ready to bite into defenses, this team isn’t here for just a game. Oh no, they want it all – the cheers, the glory, the sweet, sweet taste of that elusive championship. But beware, my dear players, because only 9% of that chance is theirs to claim it all, and the road to victory? It’s dark, winding, and filled with twists you can’t imagine. Step carefully, because once you’re in the playoffs, it’s not just a game anymore… it’s a nightmare for anyone who stands in their way. And remember – we all float down here, eventually.
Pack Attack is proving to be quite the formidable team with a current record of 12-6, projected to finish at 16-12, and holding a splendid 81% chance of making the playoffs. Now, if there’s one thing we know, it’s that statistics, like spells, don’t tell the whole story – it’s the heart behind them. With Lamar Jackson leading the way, this team possesses the speed and agility of a Firebolt, dodging defenders with the grace of a well-cast Levitation Charm. And then, there’s Amon-Ra St. Brown – a receiver as reliable as a well-brewed potion, coming through in every clutch moment with skill and determination.
But let’s not forget – the playoffs are a bit like facing a dangerous magical creature in the Forbidden Forest. You may have the odds, but you still need courage, strategy, and a bit of magic to see it through. With a championship probability of 8%, Pack Attack knows they’ll have to summon every last ounce of grit, wisdom, and tenacity to claim victory. So, they must be ready to cast every spell in their arsenal, defend against the fiercest opponents, and above all, remember – “it’s not just ability that makes a great team, but the choices they make when it counts.”
Listen, Adam Driver’s Adlib isn’t here to play small – they’re here to win, even if the path just got a whole lot tougher. With Dak Prescott likely out for the rest of the year, they’re dealing with a blow that would knock most teams off course. But at 10-8, projected to finish 15-13, with a solid 73% chance of making the playoffs, they’re proving that a setback doesn’t have to be the end of the story. This team will have to adapt, but with Breece Hall powering through defenses like he’s closing a major deal, they’re not about to back down. CeeDee Lamb, as reliable as ever, will need to step up even more – and he’s got the skills to keep this offense rolling.
Let’s talk about that 6% championship probability. Without Dak, the odds may seem steeper, but if there’s one thing Adam Driver’s Adlib knows, it’s that success isn’t just about talent – it’s about resilience. They’ve still got weapons, they’ve got grit, and they’re not here to settle. Because when you’re Adam Driver’s Adlib, you don’t just make the playoffs – you walk in like you own the room, injured QB or not. And in this league, like any big case, it’s not about how many hits you take; it’s about showing up, fighting back, and refusing to lose.
Crikey! The Bearded Clams are one wild bunch, mate! With a record of 9-9 and a projected finish of 14-14, they’re right in the thick of things, wrestling their way to a 56% chance of making the playoffs. Now, you look at a team like this, and you can’t help but get a bit excited. They’re led by none other than Josh Allen, a bloke who charges in like a croc in full pursuit, fearless and relentless. And then you’ve got Josh Jacobs tearing up the field, charging through defenses like a bull shark on a feeding frenzy, ready to snag every yard he can get his hands on.
But here’s the thing about the playoffs – they’re as unpredictable as a wild Outback adventure. With only a 4% chance to win the whole thing, these Clams have a tough trek ahead, but if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that nature doesn’t always play by the odds. This team is resilient, they’re tough, and they’ve got the instinct to fight tooth and nail, just like any predator out in the bush. So, watch out, league – The Bearded Clams are on the prowl, and they’re ready to take a big ol’ chomp out of anyone who gets in their way!
Alright, listen up – Pinche Bendejo is a team that doesn’t wait for opportunities; they create them. Sitting at 8-10, projected to finish 13-15, they’ve got a 41% chance of making the playoffs. Now, you might look at those odds and think they’re just scraping by, but let me tell you something – numbers don’t scare them. They’ve got Brock Purdy at quarterback, a guy who throws like he’s got nothing to lose, and Kenneth Walker III pounding through defenses like he’s crushing every obstacle in his path. They’re a team of risk-takers, players who know that in this league, fortune favors the bold.
And let’s talk about their 2% chance at a championship. Now, that might sound like small potatoes, but that’s where the magic happens. Because these guys? They’re hungry. They’re the ones who look at the other 98% and laugh, because they know that if you’re not willing to push the limits, you’ll never know how far you can go. Pinche Bendejo doesn’t just want a playoff spot – they want it all. They’re not here to play by the rules; they’re here to rewrite them. Because in this game, like in life, it’s not about how many chances you get. It’s about taking the one chance that counts and running with it, all the way to the top.
Rated Eks – a team that knows what it means to fight against the odds, standing resilient with a record of 8-10 and projected to end at 13-15. With a 36% chance of making the playoffs, they’re walking a narrow path, like entering the Hunger Games arena knowing every move could be the difference between victory and defeat. Led by CJ Stroud, a quarterback who’s fearless and determined, they charge forward even when the odds aren’t in their favor. And with Drake London catching passes like every yard is a lifeline, this team is scrappy, determined, and unafraid to make bold moves.
Their championship odds may sit at a mere 1%, but that’s just a number. Rated Eks knows that sometimes all it takes is one spark to start a fire, one play to turn the tides. They’re not here to bow to the giants or play it safe; they’re here to survive, adapt, and outwit anyone who underestimates them. Like a Mockingjay in the arena, they’re a symbol of resilience, ready to take on the big players with cunning and courage. This team’s not just playing for a spot in the playoffs – they’re playing for their place in history.
Alright, alright, let’s talk about Frank’s Spank Bank! With a record of 7-11 and a projected finish of 12-16, they’re sitting at a 25% chance to make the playoffs. Now, look – that might seem like a bit of a long shot, but this team isn’t one to sit back and play it safe. No, they’re here to mix it up and throw some serious party energy on the field. Kirk Cousins is the kind of QB who keeps things wild, unpredictable, and just a little dangerous – you know, like that time you did a keg stand at prom and couldn’t remember the second half of the night. And with Cooper Kupp out wide, this team’s got a guy who can deliver big plays when it counts, like a surprise visit to the best afterparty in town.
But let’s not sugarcoat it – with only a 1% chance of taking home the championship, Frank’s Spank Bank has an uphill battle. But do you think they’re just going to roll over? Heck no! This team is ready to bring the chaos, disrupt the game, and take everyone else on a wild ride they won’t forget. They’re the life of the party in this league, and they’re not leaving until they’ve had their fun. Whether they make it to the playoffs or not, one thing’s for sure: Frank’s Spank Bank is here to make an impression… and maybe leave a few hungover defenses in their wake.
Powderhoundmals is like that box of chocolates – you never know what you’re gonna get. They’ve got a record of 5-13, projected to finish at 10-18, and a 12% chance to make the playoffs. Now, some might say that’s a long shot, but this team knows a thing or two about surprises. With Jordan Love leading the way, they’ve got a quarterback who’s as steady as a feather floating on a breeze, just waiting to land in the right spot. And then there’s Zay Flowers, darting around defenders like he’s got somewhere real important to be. Together, they’re a team that just keeps running, no matter how far the goal line might seem.
Now, let’s talk about that 0.5% chance of winning it all. Some might say that’s a long, long shot, but Powderhoundmals isn’t the type to give up easy. They’re in it for every yard, every down, and every last second, because life – and football – isn’t always about the odds. It’s about showing up, working hard, and taking every opportunity, one play at a time. So whether they make it to the playoffs or not, this team is going to keep pushing forward, because, well… they just felt like running.
Welcome, everyone, to Dak's Picks playoff journey! With a record of 7-11 and a projected finish of 11-17, they’re facing a 22% chance of making it to the playoffs. Now, in Survivor terms, that might sound like they’re on the bottom of the tribe. But don’t count them out just yet! With Tua Tagovailoa calling the shots, they’ve got a quarterback who knows how to adapt, outwit, outplay, and outlast. And with Derrick Henry running the ball, he’s like a challenge beast out there, bulldozing through defenses and making big plays happen just when the team needs them.
Now, the million-dollar question: can Dak's Picks go all the way? They’ve only got a slim 1% shot at the championship, but we know that sometimes it’s the underdogs who surprise us all. In the game of fantasy football, just like Survivor, it’s all about timing, making the right alliances (or trades), and seizing every opportunity to get one step closer to victory. So, the tribe – I mean, the team – might face some tough challenges ahead, but with the right moves, Dak's Picks could pull off a shocking comeback. Who will rise to the occasion? Tune in to see if they’ve got what it takes to outlast the competition!
Well there you have it. I don't know what it means, but its there. A quick reminder that we are back to Sunday early morning games, so be sure to keep an eye on those lineups ahead of time. I also know we're starting to mathematically eliminate teams. You guys have heard me say it 1000 times by now, there's still a lot to play for. Keep playing to win and secure control over your draft positon for next season. I did bump the trade deadline back to Week 12, so we've got 2 more weeks of potential trading. Make a move to win, or make a move for a keeper for next year. Who knows?!
Good luck this week!
