Sean's Season In Review Part 3: Final Thoughts
* It took a 3 out 4 squeaker to get by Ben on the last week and achieve the best overall picks record.
* No squeaker neccesary to get past the Senior Bro. From being tied to being up by 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 games in consecutive weeks. That's a collapse worthy of Miami! Before that run, I was sure it was going to be the Senior Bro's year.
* Congratulations to Ben on a great year. It made the last few weeks very interesting to see who would emerge on top.
* I must reluctantly admit that the Raiders have a much better chance than the 49ers to advance to the Superbowl. The 49ers have too many glaring weaknesses, as evidenced by the fourth quarter collapse against the Rams. Yes, that was a meaningless game, but the 49ers have had the same problems all year: an inconsistent kicking game and punting, the lack of a consistent second and third receiver, a lack of passing defense, and failure to hold significant fourth quarter leads. I pointed out most of these weaknesses in my preseason predictions.
* The 49ers are at best a one win and out team. They could conceivably lose to the Giants, who are on a hot streak.
* The Raiders have a chance to make it to the Superbowl and win, but could face stiff competition from the Jets or Colts in the divisional round and Tennessee if they reach the conference championship game. I would love to seem them face the Jets who have taken off with an impressive drubbing of the Packers.
* That's about all for this season. Stay tuned next year Junior Bro fans as I try for the unprecidented five-peat!
