Tips for Tikay

[bobby1]

We sneaked a good night out of Matt Ryan last night too which now leaves the QB standings with a game to go as follows.

Manning          5211
Brees              4781
Stafford          4433
Rivers             4249
Ryan               4235
Brady              4221
Roethlisberger 4082
Dalton             4015


Stafford(fingers crossed he plays) is away in a dome against Minny tho might be without Megatron.
Rivers looks certain to be up against a Kansas team that will be resting players so that could work in our favour if they are leading comfortably or it could make it a lot easier for him to pass should he need to.
Brady has a home game against the Bills which is a good match up
Big Ben is up against Cleveland
Ryan is at home in a dome but plays a tough D in Carolina.

We could have done with the game going to overtime last night to give Ryan more passing attempts and it almost did, even 30-50 yards would have made a  difference but tbh it is quite amazing that Ryan still has a chance of making the top 4 after all the injuries that Atlanta have had in skill positions this season.

Out of almost nowhere we have another sweat for Sunday

Last night Matt Ryan had a good performance for the Atlanta Falcons

37-48 for 348 yards

So with one week to go

We have

Most Regular Season Passing Yards   Matthew Stafford 6/1 £50 e/w 1/4 1,2,3,4
Most Regular Season Passing Yards   Drew Brees   3/1   £80 e/w 1/4 1,2,3,4
Most Regular Season Passing Yards   Matt Ryan       10/1   £33 e/w 1/4 1,2,3,4

The position is

1   Peyton Manning, QB   DEN   5,211   
2   Drew Brees, QB    NO   4,781   
3   Matthew Stafford, QB DET 4,433   
4   Philip Rivers, QB SD   4,249   
--------------------
5   Matt Ryan, QB   ATL   4,235   
6      Tom Brady, QB   NE   4,221

Brees is at home to Tampa. In New Orlean's dome he should ensure 2nd place
Stafford plays at the Vikings and pressure off should put up Yards
Ryan plays at home to Carolina. A tough one as they are going for the NFC number 2 seed and are a fierece defense
Rivers is at home to Kansas City who mgiht be playing back ups ahead of the play offs
Brady plays at the Bills, with the incentive to do well to secure the AFC Number 2 seed. Weather might be an issue for passing yards though

Brees and Stafford only e/w = a small loss

If Ryan can sneak into the top 4 too, we have a profit

Everton's next 5 fixtures:

Sunderland (H)
Southampton (H)
Stoke (A)
Norwich (H)
WBA (A)

I'd be disappointed with 10 points from that little lot.

They've already played Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal away.

I think this is the most open top division race in my lifetime and Martinez, Barkley, Lukaku and the boys have completely won me over.

Suggest £30 @ 33/1 with Ladbrokes or Coral.

Reevaluate after the above five fixtures to see if we want to hold or trade.

Ooh, thanks Keith.

Sweat ON.

Ladbrokes even permitted me the full £30 @ 33/1.

We'll need to keep an eye on this, in case trading is required.

More for Tighty to report on, too.
