News: We have four weeks left in our regular season and the deadline to complete trades is Saturday. With those milestones in mind it seems like an appropriate time to take a quick look beyond Week 14. No doubt there’s an odds calculator online somewhere but I’m just going to “eyeball it” based on past seasons.

In NFL news, we had another cluster of concussions and hamstrings as well as the leg injury to Aidan Hutchinson. Lots of Qs, Ds and Os out there. Random Thought of the Week: Defensive scoring….
