Week 9 NFC recap

By Greg Reedy
NFC Correspondent/Final Fantasy 12 non-owner

For the first time this season, the Reedman went 0-3 in his picks, a really sad fact considering what the games were.

Miami vs. Chicago - For whatever reason, Joey Harrington played like an NFL quarterback. Rex Grossman didn't. Behind an Arizona-like performance by Rex Grossman, the Dolphins not only won, but they ended Chicago's undefeated season, just like back in 1985. I'd tell other similarites between now and 1985 but I was only 1 in 1985. Just for perspective, Miami now has a 2-6 record on the season. Just like another team we all know and love. Miami Tuna Melts 31, Chicago Brown Bears 13.

Dallas at Washington - Arguably one of the best games of the day. It centered around T.O. making a catch and then pretending to fall asleep for a touchdown and a penalty followed up by literally falling asleep and dropping a pass that looked like it would be a touchdown. Kickers decided this one but since most kickers are inept, there were three game-winning attempts in the final minute and only one of them was made. Oh ya, Mike Vanderjagt missed another game-winning field goal. Kind of like January all over again. Washington "don't call us" Redskins 22, Dallas "Brokeback Mountain" Cowboys 19

Minnesota at San Francisco - There are a couple of these games every year. ALL FIELD GOALS. The only thing this time was the 49ers weren't playing the Cardinals, the game wasn't on ESPN and the game was in America. Fantasy owners who had Joe Nedney had a good day. Joe Nedney 9, Paul Edinger 3

Fantasy thrills and Spills:
Thrills: Larry Johnson and Tomlinson, Javon Walker
Spills: David Carr, Rex Grossman, Steelers D

Oh, by the way the fantasy team got smoked this week. Still 6-3 on the season.
