Sleepy's NFL "Frauds & Gods" Week 6

FRAUD – Woody Johnson

Does this guy really need a memo and reminder tattooed on his head saying "FIRE ADAM GASE" ? Adam Gase has shown over the years, with both the Miami Dolphins and now the New York Jets, that he is an incompetent head coach. Jets owner Woody Johnson has let subpar people control this franchise for way too long. This guy is either too easily manipulated or just plain dumb. Somebody wake this guy up. If you own a team, act like you even care. The Jets are one of three 0-5 teams left in the NFL, are 0-3 at home and sport the league's worst +/- point differential at -86 (!). What else does Woody need to pull the trigger?

FRAUD – Bengals O-Line

Congratulations, Cincinanti. You are now getting the #1 pick, Joe Burrow, killed every single week. At some point you either have to beg the Bengals to just run the ball 60 times a game, or you have to play like you belong in the NFL. This offensive line should be charged with endangering a minor the way they're letting the young Burrow get demolished by opposing defenses. Playing in a division with six games a year against Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Myles Garrett's Cleveland Browns only makes things worse here.

FRAUD – Roger Goodell

We haven’t seen this beloved commissioner since the NFL Draft. Roger Goodell has nothing to say to the fans on the season at all? Where has this guy been for almost 10 weeks now? Goodell has done some great things, yes, but in order to be considered a good commissioner, sometimes you do have to address the fans, especially in a COVID-19 season like we have in 2020. You'd think after we had a breakout of COVID with the Tennessee Titans that he would've talked to the masses to say - "these are the steps we are taking to safeguard our players..." - Nope, nothing. Goodell needs to come out of hiding and show his face to the fans.

FRAUD – 49ers Medical Staff

I understand that you want and need to win games this season. The issue with that is, however, that you won’t win the games that matter without a healthy Jimmy Garoppolo. It was clear that Jimmy G wasn’t ready to play football in Week 5 after not looking even close to 50% in the first half of San Francisco's blowout loss at home to the Miami Dolphins. The fact that Jimmy G cleared protocol to play with his ankle injury has me baffled. All you had to do was watch the game to see Jimmy G should've never been on the field in the first place. The 49ers need to swallow their ego and let their franchise quarterback get his ankle right.

GOD – Russell Wilson

The rain is coming in sideways and Russell Wilson goes on a 96-yard march to put the dagger in the Vikings season. That's why Wilson makes this list nearly every damn week. He is the best quarterback in the league, and he is the MVP of the league hands down. Wilson's Seattle Seahawks are the only 5-0 squad left standing after Sunday, and pending Tuesday night's game between the 4-0 Bills and the undefeated Titans. Can you name something that Wilson can’t do? Go on. I'll wait. The MVP trophy is his to lose.

GOD – Derek Carr

Everyone is talking about Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes for MVP, and for good reason. If you are forgetting about the Raiders' Derek Carr though, then maybe this will turn the lights on for you: Carr is tearing up teams this season with an 11:1 TD to INT ratio and has led this Raiders team to a 3-2 season despite playing one of the most difficult NFL schedules to date. Carr is #5 in QBR right now. He is making a personal comeback of sorts in 2020, and a strong case for locking down the Las Vegas Raiders' franchise quarterback gig for years to come. I hope Jon Gruden is paying attention, as well as Vegas' front office.

GOD – Steelers Talent Scouts

This team hasn’t missed on a wide receiver in maybe 50 years. Notre Dame standout Chase Claypool has now burst onto the scene in Pittsburgh, and this Steelers offense looks more and more scary to teams as the weeks go by. Claypool had four TD’s in Week 5 and would've had five scores if one catch wasn't called back due to penalty. If Claypool, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Diontae Johnson are all healthy, then Big Ben could truly have his best ever supporting cast Let’s give some credit to whoever is hiring the help. The draft hits keep on piling up.

GOD – Robby Anderson

Robby Anderson has burst right back on the scene like it’s 2018 all over again. Adam Gase has to watch this guy tear up the league, as his only receiver that can catch a pass is now Jamison Crowder. Anderson looks to be the greatest heist in NFL recent history, as he ranks third overall in the league with 489 yards on the season. I don’t know what else to say, except that if a coach should ever be fired because of what a player has been doing on another team, theN THE Jets should consider this to be added to the reasons why you Adam Gase should be gone. Props to Anderson for taking over WR1 duties in Carolina, too, over DJ Moore.
