After 15 weeks of games, it all comes down to this, the championship matchup in Czyk’s Revenge Fantasy Football League. This year, the title comes down to Melbot vs. Eric VS. Hank. Let’s take a look at how the teams got here and preview the championship matchup.
How They Got Here
Melbot probably thought their championship hopes were dashed after Michael Vick and the Eagles offense went ice cold against the Giants defense for the first three quarters of Sunday’s game. They probably wanted to just forget about fantasy football. Then, a crazy thing happened. Michael Vick and the Eagles offense went crazy, with Vick ending up with two TD passes and 130 yards rushing and a rushing TD, leading both the Eagles and Melbot to a win. Eric and Hank were carried to the championship on the arm of Philip Rivers, who torched a depleted 49ers defense in their Thursday night game. With limited production from MJD, Eric Vs. Hank was still able to win their game rather convincingly.
Preview
The key player in this matchup is the player every fantasy football player wishes they had on their team if they don’t own him, Michael Vick. Vick has become the best fantasy player to own this year and is about as consistent a player as you could possibly want, easily scoring at least 20 points a week. This week, he faces a Vikings defense that looked like it gave up in their Monday night game against the Bears. With a playoff berth on the line this week, look for Vick and the Eagles offense to come out firing and look to put the Vikings away early. Along with Lesean McCoy, Melbot features two players who have a lot to play for this week against a team that has nothing to play for.
For Eric vs. Hank to pull off the upset, they need MJD to not only play but also have a big game. Coach Jack Del Rio said he would make a decision on MJD on Friday, so make sure you pick up Rashad Jennings in case he is unable to go. Along with MJD, Darren McFadden and Philip Rivers need to continue to put up big numbers in order to keep up with Melbot’s playmakers. Both players have arguably been top- 3 players at their respective positions this year and both players still have something to play for, making their games more meaningful.
Prediction
Melbot, with Michael Vick leading the way, will take the championship based on their explosive offense and balanced attack.
