W1LDCARD Cardinals @ Dodgers

Even if the Dodgers hadn’t won more than 100 games and weren’t the defending Champs, a one game series vs Scherzer would almost certainly put them in the “favorite” category. As it stands, the Cardinals are the ones that needed a record breaking September surge to make it into the one game W1LDCARD going 22-7 in the month including a 17 game win streak to capture the 2nd W1LDCARD.

Dolphins’ Demerits: Week III @Raiders

Dolphins’ Demerits: Week II vs Bills

This is a difficult Monday. I’m a highly optimistic Phins fan; this was the first year in my life when I didn’t go down the schedule opponent by opponent and think: “they have a real shot at 16-0” and that was because this year I thought “17-0 is a definite possibility.”
