NFL Week 12 -- Return of Turducken

White! Peterman! It’s the NFL on Fox!

 

I looked at the 1 p.m. offerings, and to my own bemusement, settled on the Bears-Jets. I'm intrigued by Fields' recent explosion, and no-name QB starters (on the other side) can be fun sometimes.

 

On the other hand, if Peterman did play, you just know the Jets, being the Jets, will somehow manage to make him look like Sid Luckman reincarnated.

 

Isn’t that sort of unethical?

 

Well, that's how dialed out I am -- outside of my fantasy roster. I didn't even know Fields was in question.

 

I think your money just got picked off ...

 

And if you had just gone back one page …

 

It's true. I should always check my lineup off SJ.com threads.

 

That really is the danger in betting that total. When you're playing unders, defensive touchdowns are the devil.
I don't know if it was a blip or a glitch, or the news that Siemian might play after they shot him up with enough painkillers to sedate a moose, but the O/U bounced back up to 37.5 just before kickoff.

 

Start of Ravens-Jaguars delayed in Jacksonville, where the rain came poundin' down.

 

Siemian starts for the Bears. There's probably a good chance they run the ball about 60 times today.

 

Check those options.
