    So I have Finau and Justin Thomas at 60-something to 1; Hovland and Cam Smith at 50-something to 1. Finau is always feast or famine. Technically, it's a "home game" for JT, but that won't be worth...

    The top three entrants did a fine job. Those records would have put them top 10 NFL certainly and in contention for top spots in most annual McCusker Reports. Those are real good records for NFL...
