Week 17
While I love having football on Saturday, I’m certainly fine with the standard schedule this week. We get a bigger main slate and a little less content, both to produce and to consume. After a rough three-week stretch, I’m ready to get back to the ways of winning. This is always an interesting time of year because many teams are battling to make the playoffs, many teams have nothing on the line, and many teams are actively trying to lose in order to improve their draft stock.
From an ownership standpoint, it’s easy to gravitate to the teams that are pulling out all the stops win win over the next two weeks. However, we shouldn’t be so quick to dismiss teams that we assume have punted their season away, especially in tournaments. These players are still playing for contracts and coaches are still fighting for their livelihood. Much like the first two weeks of the season, the last two weeks are a great time to be contrarian due to groupthink.
