The Brooklyn Trolley Blogger: PIGSKIN 2013 - Football Sunday; Week Fifteen

The Patriots sputter without Gronk? Miami wins Sunday and sneaks into the lead for the 2nd wild card!?!? The Baltimore Ravens play Monday night against the Lions? Uh oh. The Chargers will be watching too.

THIRD AND LONG:

The Cowboys and Bears are desperately chasing the Cardinals for the outside chance the Panthers or the 49ers slip. At 7-6, that means Jerry Jones' World was once again filled with foolishness and folly. They're on the outside looking in, for the right to surpass the Cardinals for the right to be on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. Yeah! It's like that.

PUNT:

Everything about "the Washington team" screams KICK ME. Someone find Lucy Van Pelt to hold the football.

Native Americans want Daniel Snyder scalped if he doesn't change the team name. Meanwhile, Daniel Snyder and Coach Shanahan have declared war against each other, and RG3 is the front line, or, what ever is left of him. The league has teed-off on the QB like a tackle dummy. Now coach os benching him for the rest of the season? What an implosion!

WEEK FIFTEEN:

Friday Line ~ NYDN

Seahawks -7 (GIANTS)

OMG! I hope Giants fans have the stomach for this.

Win; 23-0 Seahawks

PANTHERS -11 (Jets)

I would imagine the Panthers are pissed off, over not playing better last week against the Saints. All those defensive players Rex spent the week bragging about...? pffft. Cam Newton is going to show Geno how it's done.

Loss; 30-20 Panthers

~~Redskins~~ Hogs +6 1/2 (FALCONS)

For the Falcons, an almost game in the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field doesn't count. That was their last hurrah. Just to spite Daniel Snyder's face, the HOGS will win with RGIII on the bench. That's a lot of points though.

Win; 27-26 Falcons

49ers -5 (BUCS)

Those Bucs sure have played better of late. Coach Schiano just may have saved his job. But he, the Bucs, and Darrell Revis have nothing to play for. The Niners do. They better be careful though.

Win; 33-14 49ers

Cardinals -3 (TITANS)

The Titans took a pair of (Broncos) horse shoes to the chops last week. They're still dazed. The Cardinals are still hot on the 49ers and Panthers tails.

Push; 37-34 Cardinals

Saints -6 (RAMS)

Damn those Saints outside of the Dome. Take your chances with this one. Rams can get to the QB.

Loss; 27-16 Rams

BROWNS +1 (Bears)

Damn you all to hell!!!! Know what? Move the Browns to Los Angeles, rebrand the team, move the Jacksonville Jaguars to Cleveland, and bury the Browns forever!!

Loss; 38-31 Bears

COLTS -6 (Texans)

The Texans are a Lone Star Mess. I'm sure the Colts want to finish strong. Lay the points at home.

Win; 25-3 Colts

Bills -2 (JAGUARS)

I flipped a coin, and still went the other way.

Win; 27-20 Bills

Patriots -2 (DOLPHINS)

Well, well, the Dolphins have a back-bone. The Minute-Men will be without The Gronk for the rest of the season. The Patriots are ripe for a loss. I just can't resist Tom Brady and two points.

Loss; 24-20 Dolphins

Eagles -4 1/2 (VIKINGS)

These teams deserve each other. It doesn't matter who's on the field. The final score is going to be 58-49.

Loss; 48-30 Vikings

Chiefs -4 (RAIDERS)

Denver clinched a playoff spot. So, the Chiefs do not want to blow this. It's closing time at the Black Hole.

Win; 56-31 Chiefs

COWBOYS -6 (Packers)

This line sucks. Gimmie the Boys in nice weather, and no Rodgers.

Loss; 37-36 Packers

Bengals -3 (STEELERS)

The Steelers pissed away their chances last week against the Fish. This is now the Bengals big chance to slam the door on the rest of the division.
