The team also lost the points title to ATCQ as a result of their lackluster performance. Coming into the playoffs they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re on a two-game losing streak and Romo and DJax are banged up. However, they have good matchups week 15 (except on D) so they should advance to the QBowl. 3\/1<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>QJ<\/strong> gets #2 and the bye even though they boneheadedly played Miami D on Monday night with a lead. Now the whole league can look forward to the next draft, where we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll undoubtedly spend hours discussing new legislation to address this extraordinarily rare and trivial situation. 8\/1<\/p>\n<p><strong>OQ<\/strong> is the #3 and also came third in scoring after a hot couple of weeks. Very strong core lineup but it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s looking weak at the bottom with Julius out and Ellington slumping. Luckily they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re matching up with a pitiful TenQ squad that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s already capitulated. If they get Julius back soon they should reach the final. 9\/2<\/p>\n<p><strong>SOQ<\/strong> had a shot at the bye but ends up #4 as the runner-up in their first year in the QFL Patrick Division. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s impressive that they made the playoffs after the dumbest move in QFL history, but a title run seems unlikely. Big Ben has been awful on the road and has two road games coming up. Gordon and Forsett will need to carry this team on their backs if they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going to go anywhere and Gordon\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s getting a sketchy new QB this week. 14\/1<\/p>\n<p><strong>ATCQ<\/strong> is somehow the #5 seed after leading the league in scoring, a fact that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s dripping with irony considering his Lucky Ratio\u00e2\u201e\u00a2\u00c2\u00a0fixation. The team hasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t scored under 75 since back in week 4, and they recently added #1 overall RB Murray to an already imposing lineup. The wiseguy pick to make the QBowl. 7\/2<\/p>\n<p><strong>TenQ<\/strong> somehow squeaks into the playoff picture even after shadily attempting to tank Week 13 by playing Chicago D at Detroit. There are rumblings around the league office of official sanctions being levied in the offseason, including loss of draft picks. The team\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inexplicable trade of Murray at the deadline removed any hope of a repeat. 18\/1<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>QTang<\/strong> gets a Toilet Bowl bye after winning their last 3 regular season games including last week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s big win over FRNQ, which evened the teams\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 records at 6-7. Narrowly missed the playoffs due to a Week 6 loss to TenQ.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fredneq<\/strong> had three consecutive wins by two points or less coming in to Week 13 but couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t keep the magic going against QTang, and as a result gets the consolation bye instead of a playoff spot. Not even their bold acquisition of Chad Ochocinco last week was enough to vault them into the playoffs. Yes, that really happened.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inquincibles<\/strong> were fifth in scoring but opponents averaged over 77 points per game against them. Team management\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s unwillingness to trade and lack of dedication really hurt them again this year. Excellent chance at the first pick despite not having a bye.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QBC<\/strong> participated in fantasy football this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qbola<\/strong> hasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t won in the post-Manning era and comes in on a 4-game skid. Their matchup with QBC is a pick \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fahq<\/strong> was a victim of Megatron\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s injuries and the general ineffectiveness of Detroit\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s offense. Vernon Davis\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 complete disappearance after Week 1 didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help matters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QBC fans are still representin&#8217; QU got by QJ for the #1 seed despite getting badly beaten by Inquincibles.
