Cheesestradamus Week 11: Buccaneers @ Packers
The second week of the second half of Cheesestradamus has arrived! Let me first apologize for a lack of a Week 10 recap post - it's been a crazy week, so the recap can be found after the jump. Before we look to the past, though, let's take a look ahead to Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers instead.
The usual categories are present, as always, but with Tampa's suspect pass defense, I thought we should take a look at the passing game. You'll predict Aaron Rodgers' passer rating (with the usual point levels at +/- 2.5, 5, and 7.5 points), as well as the player who will be on the receiving end of the Packers' first completed pass. We'll then take a look to the defense; you'll predict the number of sacks the Packers will record and the total yards they'll allow to the Bucs. That one will have points at +/- 10, 20, and 30 yards for 3, 2, and 1 point each.
Before the jump, let me congratulate the Week 10 winner, Danwood, on his 12-point performance. Good work, sir.

REPORTER: What do you think is happening to the team?
MICHAEL RAY RICHARDSON: The ship be sinking.
REPORTER: How far can it sink?
MICHAEL RAY RICHARDSON: Sky's the limit.
thanks for doing this
it’s something to look forward to and I know it’s a few hours a week worth of work

She seriously scored more than me?
Maybe I should just quit. I was really close on my bonus though. Wood got pretty close to a sack a couple times IIRC, and he dropped that pick.
Maybe I should just give up now so I don’t have to worry about it.
Go Suns, Packers, Jays, and Huskers!

You know that's right!
Though I think the only way I’m going to win this half is if everyone ragequits after I beat them.
Then god forbid you somehow win a week.
Then again, that would make my job easier…

... I like the way you think.
That should be a new rule – if I beat someone, they’re automatically out.
By "beat" you mean scoring on the Cheesetradamus...
not physically damage, correct?

Beat me by 2!
I already told you! I deal with the god damn receivers so the linebackers don’t have to! I have coverage skills; I’m good at covering people! Can’t you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?!

Is that a good bonus prediction? Didn’t know what else to go with.

if anyone picked Raji for the first TD
I’m going to award triple points instead of double. That was awesome.
