2016 RED ZONE FACTION CHAMPIONSHIP A CHANGE IN PREDICTION!

Round 2 ended about as I expected. All 4 teams brought everything they had and should be congratulated on making it this far. Jeremiah and Dustin had great seasons.

Now on to the winners of Round 2 and the match up we're looking forward to seeing. These two teams have only faced off once this season in week 6 with The Killers getting a 187.5 - 126 win. VATKA finished the regular season with an 8-5 record which placed them #2 seed and they rewarded a first round bye. VATKA brings a very solid roster to this game. His core guys are Bell, Blount, Ware, and Miller. All RB's that can get the job done. And their QB Cousins is no slouch either. VATKA has been near the top of the rankings all year long and deserves to be in this game. I expect these guys to have a great game score many points.

The Killers bring an arsenal of their own for the championship game. The Killers finished the regular season with a 12-1 record landing them the #1 seed and also getting a first round bye. The horses; D. Johnson, Elliott, McCoy, and Ingram (Could be Peterson this week). Also led by which ever QB The Killers decide on this week between Brady/Rothlisberger. The Killers have held the #1 ranking all season. Their only loss came in the last regular season game to the Purple Knights. My Killers haven't let me down but once this year and I do not hold that against them scoring 165 points (2nd highest that week) to the weeks highest score 192.5.

(Now on to my predictions. I'm 13-1 picking my Killers so why would I go any other way? As I type that please understand that of all my predictions this season this one comes with more concern than any before it. This is for everything. I expect a dog fight this week and I know it's coming. Killers win a tough one.)

After the Backs dropped their player (Melvin Gordon) and of course picked up by VATKA, VATKA should now easily walk away with the victory. The dirty always prevail in fantasy. Wow...

I'll be back next week and talk a little bit about the game, the season, and plans for 2017. I hope you all had a great year. Please use the Red Zone Faction Facebook page to keep up with what is going on with the league through out the off season. Be safe this week and merry Christmas to you and yours.
