We take a look at the NFL teams on byes in Week 9.

The NFL will be officially half over by the time the weekend wraps up and we’re now at the point where the NFL seems to panic and try to cram in every team they can on bye week.

While it sucks for fantasy purposes, some of these teams are indeed in desperate need of a break.

This group especially has some ugly teams. I suppose the Bears could be bad and ugly but we gave them the benefit of the doubt that they might bounce back.

And frankly, very few things are as ugly as the Falcons right now.

Let’s start there, shall we?
