Sunday's games are done. The week is not. These are week scores through 9:00 p.m. Pacific, Thursday already inside them. White on the board is live. The projected total is played points plus each remaining starter's own projection. A lead is not a win while Buffalo and Minnesota are still on the clock. Records on the board are banked. Tonight does not get written into them yet.

Three are finished. Four are not.

King James 115.38, Ghost of Twomp 114.52. This matchup is out of players. King James won it by 0.86, and Puka Nacua scored 28.3 of the reason. At 2:47 p.m., Haters Gonna Hate said it was dumb to run Puka with the real game already basically over. King James answered at 2:50 p.m., exact words: "Stupid asss mcvay." The box score did not convene a meeting. J.J. McCarthy scored 7.78 in the superflex after the room spent noon convinced the ribs were the story. King James said he was crying, said broken ribs, then at 12:28 p.m. said he was back. Ghost of Twomp's line, 12:30 p.m.: "He saw Winston throw a TD and was healed." That is the room talking. It is not a medical chart. The self-own is the bench. Audric Estime scored 16.4 while Mike Washington Jr. scored -0.3 in the lineup. That swap is 16.7. The margin was 0.86. Ghost of Twomp lost this one.

Dan's Deepball 155.72, Ball Don't Lie 78.16. Finished, and it is a 77.56 canyon. Ja'Marr Chase scored 27.5, Bijan Robinson 25.9, Joe Burrow 31.54 in the superflex. Patrick Mahomes scored 17.08 at quarterback after the room spent 11:23 a.m. declaring the right arm a season changer. Haters Gonna Hate said "Mahomes right arm." King James called it a false alarm. Ghost of Twomp said maybe the scare fixed him, because he had not been playing well. The line is 17.08. The scare was the chat, not a diagnosis. Ball Don't Lie started Jared Goff at 6.5 and Michael Penix Jr. at 15.68. Kenny Gainwell's 9.2 on the bench does not cross 77.56.

Haters Gonna Hate 178.82, BNF 102.96. Finished, and it is the loud one. Brock Purdy 28.98, Matthew Golden 27.9, Brock Bowers 18.7, Jonah Coleman 17.6, Ka'imi Fairbairn 17.8, Giants defense 19.5. Malik Nabers scored 5.8 on that same roster. At 12:39 p.m. King James watched Nabers drop a touchdown on a perfect pass. Haters Gonna Hate answered, "what a bum." The drop is a bruise on a parade. The parade still won by 75.86. C.J. Stroud scored 37.86 for BNF and the week still looks like a banked 0-8 problem. Haters are banked 8-0. This matchup is another win on the board, not yet a 9-0 in the record column.

4th and INCHES 152.35, GolfNut 106.54, projected 131.78. 4th and INCHES is done. CeeDee Lamb 27.5, Bucky Irving 27.8, Tee Higgins 18.2, Tyler Shough 21.1. GolfNut is not done. DJ Moore is projected 10.46 and Justin Jefferson 14.78. Combined, that is 25.24. The hole is 45.81. GolfNut needs those two to beat their own projections by 20.57 just to tie. Alive. Not the favorite.

My Team Sucks! 168.18, Dat's It 115.81, projected 124.31. Kenneth Walker III scored 37.1. Christian Watson scored 27.0. Jordan Love scored 37.98 for Dat's It and the hole is still 52.37. At 11:45 a.m., Ghost of Twomp posted an ambulance clip and captioned it a raise on the morning Mahomes scare: a Christian Watson ambulance. The box score answered with 27.0. The clip is the room's reaction, not a claim that the footage is tonight's broadcast.

Dat's It still has T.J. Hockenson, projected 8.50. Tank Dell scored 17.8 on the bench while Ladd McConkey and Josh Jacobs scored 0.0 in the lineup. That is a real benching. It is not a comeback. Hockenson would need 52.38.

DGAD 78.17, projected 110.38. Kittle Corn 63.90, projected 121.40. This is the Monday game. DGAD leads by 14.27 with Josh Allen projected 22.95 and Will Reichard 9.26. Travis Kelce already scored 16.1, which is the loud finished piece on a quiet card. Kittle Corn trails live and leads the projected total by 11.02, because six starters have not played: Carson Wentz 15.94, Dalton Kincaid 8.47, Jordan Addison 8.97, Jordan Mason 9.23, Tyler Bass 9.02, and the Vikings defense 5.87. That is 57.50 of projection still in the tunnel. Javonte Williams already scored 21.7. Nobody has won this.

Call: Kittle Corn is the only lineup that can still steal a game it is currently losing, and only if Monday pays the projected total and then some.

EzMoney 111.20, projected 127.26. Tony's Terrific Team 83.72, projected 91.23. EzMoney leads by 27.48 with James Cook III still out, projected 16.06. Tony's Terrific Team has the Bills defense left, projected 7.51. For Tony's Terrific Team to pass, that defense has to outscore Cook by 27.48. That is a cartoon, not a plan. Still not a final stamp. Buffalo has ruined cleaner math than this.

Monday's leftover list, so a lead does not get mistaken for a win: Moore and Jefferson for GolfNut; Hockenson for Dat's It; Allen and Reichard for DGAD; Wentz, Kincaid, Addison, Mason, Bass, and the Vikings for Kittle Corn; Cook for EzMoney; the Bills defense for Tony's Terrific Team. King James, Dan's Deepball, and Haters Gonna Hate are out of players. The other four matchups are not.

Haters put up the number. King James survived the number. Kittle Corn is asking Monday to invent one. — 30 —
