You can never really tell anything about the season from week one. As Taylor or Nick or one of you finance dude's may understand, you never invest in anything based on one statistic. You look at trends, am I right? The same thing applies for Fantasy football.
Don't Look to Deeply into Week 1
- Matt E, Peyton will not be the best QB all year although he is a great QB to have this year.
- Taylor, David Wilson will get the ball back and will be fine. Are they really going to have ole man jacobs running the ball?
- Brady, you are really unfortunate that Vereen broke his wrist as he was likely going to be the starter week 2. Thank goodness for me, I have Stevan Ridley who gets another shot to try and redeem himself and return to his top 10 form.
- How many of you are jumping to the waivers to grab Julius Thomas? Don't worry, 5 other guys are too. But you know what, Welker, Thomas, Thomas and Decker will all get tds throughout the year and a big week 1 doesn't mean it will last. Remember that cowboys receiver (Kevin Ogletree) from last year that had 2 or 3 tds his first game and then only ended up with 4 all season? Fun Fact: did you know that Julius Thomas played 5 games with the Broncos in 2011 and only had 1 reception for 5 yards?
Match Recap
- Taylor, I am excited for the chicken wings you owe me this next week. Our match-up hurt your pride and your wallet, it doesn't get better than that (even if I can't take much credit).
- Matt B. Welcome to Fantasy Football. In your first week, your 3 highest scoring players were all on your bench and you lost by 1. Those same three players put up 75 points alone....enough to tie your competition. It only gets better from here my friend. Dane, consider yourself lucky and take it as a gift, for your birthday.
- Nick, your RB core is crazy scary. Reggie was a great addition for you and AP is sick as always. If Cruz keeps putting up numbers (biting my tongue as I said you were stupid for keeping him from last year) you are going to "cruz" through this season. Bad pun?
- Jake, you get the trophy for best name change of the week. Dane, change your name ASAP. Seriously.
- Boring Match-up of the Week goes too.....Spike/Mike. Beside Larry Fitz, every player was very mediocre and not really fun to watch. It came down to 10 points between them and all Mike had was a kicker. Do you seriously stay up and watch an entire game just to see what the kicker does? BORING!

Funny thing my fantasy alert told me I lost 74-73 (not sure why) when I woke up the next day.
ReplyDeleteThat is really weird. Congrats on the win. Your streak ends this week though.
