Well, What Do You Need From Tonight's Game?

[Greg Ambrosius]

What do you need from Peyton Manning & Co. in tonight's game to get a win in the NFFC? Let's hear the wishful prayers from the congregation!!

I have two 50/50 bets going tonight

In the classic I need Ryan Mathews to beat Antonio Gates + 3.9 points. I also need to vengefully cut Greg Little who was not a wise use of my free agent money.

In an auction I need 13.9 from Demaryius Thomas. Please hold onto the ball.

Then in primetime I need Peyton Manning and Demaryius Thomas to not suffer serious injuries in the first quarter.

[Captain Hook]

Team 1 needs 35 ppr points from Willis McGahee and Robert Meachem tonight - any combination will work to get me a big W

and sorry chriseibl but Team 2 needs Demaryius to be a healthy scratch tonight - or to play decoy and go without a catch

[BONGIZMO]

I need DT to bring out his inner AJ Green across multiple teams while also having Decker strain his hammy in warmups and not play...

[DOOMSDAY]

For Rivers to match Rodgers' output from last night and Floyd to double up McGahee. Not looking too good.

I need San Diego to win the game at +1.

It's 24-0 at halftime.

I'm good right?

I remember, back in the day, I believe it was 2006, I had a 6 team parlay. I won the first 5 games. I had Denver in the Sunday night game in a pick em game against San Diego. If I won this game, I would win close to $12,000.

Denver took the lead 24-7 midway through the 3rd quarter. Ladanian Tomlinson scores 3 TD's in the final 18:00 of the game and San Diego wins the game 35-27. That, my friends, was the last time I bet on an NFL game. Sure, I believe fantasy football is a form of gambling, but the torture of going game to game, with money on the line, is something I don't miss at all. (I did have $2K on SD to cover my bet, but still...)

JETS SB -- great story and you are right...games like tonight are why I also don't bet on the NFL. Unfortunately I fell asleep in the 2nd quarter and missed most of the game
