TEN DOWN
After 11 weeks we still have 60 competitors with a shot at the playoffs and the overall crown.  Week to week the landscape is shifting.  Lineups that score over 100 points one week are lucky to score 50 the next.  This is by far the craziest season.  Anything can still happen for you fortunate 60 out there and for the 10 that are eliminated, you could decide who wins and loses!

These questions and more are addressed in Take Your Eye Off the Ball 2.0, a book that takes readers deep inside the perpetual chess match between offense and defense. This book provides clear and simple explanations to the intricacies and nuances that affect the outcomes of every NFL game. This updated edition contains recent innovations from the 2015 NFL season.
