So the first week is in the books and it was a pretty explosive week for most. Four teams already crossed the triple digit mark and all the matches ended up with some monday night drama. Waivers clear tomorrow morning so make sure to submit any roster moves and remember that when you make a waiver claim you head to the back of the line. They do not reset every week based on who is the biggest loser.
A Team Named Suh vs. Jayhawk Nation - Wow, so of all the games on the schedule tonight this was the only one I wrote off. I mean Brady is good but no way he scores 37 points. I was right, but scoring 34 is ridiculous. Jayhawk Nation might be regretting his choice of 9th round defense that got him negative four points, but the kicker (pun intended) is that Nate Kaeding goes out with an ACL without ever scoring a point. This probably should have been a Jayhawk Nation win, but instead it looks like the Nation might continue his bad luck of playing high score of the week.
Blame it on the Henny vs. A Pimp Name Slickback - A rematch of the 3rd place game last year and Twig looked pretty much in control being up 24 going against Welker and the Patriots D. Everything looked good until the second half blew up with Welker going bananas and dropping 28 leaving the Pimp drinking all the Henny he wants. Twig might have been able to avoid this had he decided for Benson's 18 over Greene's 2 or playing the 22 points of Baltimore D versus the negative 6 he got from Pittsburgh. Week 1 was cruel.
Huge Hits vs. Hide ya Kids Hide ya Wife - Huge Hits only needed 8 points going into the final game of the week with Moreno left. Would have thought it would be pretty easy, but Moreno decided on fumbling early and gaining 4 yards on 5 carries. From there it was slow sledding and only ended up with 3 of the 8 points. Huge Hits left Meachem and Austin on his bench who both outscored by themselves the production of Deangelo Williams, Roddy White and Manningham. Ouch. Of course Hide ya had all 29 of Steve Smith's points on the bench as well so can't feel too bad for Huge Hits.
The Blackshirts vs. Rusty Trombone - This matchup had a lot of drama going into Sunday night with Rusty up 3. Of course Hernandez got going late and gave Blackshirts 16. That meant that Rusty would need Lloyd to have a huge night to overcome the 13 point hole while hoping Janikowski pulled a Nate Kaeding. Instead the beast that is Sebastian tied the NFL record with a 63 yard field goal along with 11 other points. Neither guy had a lot on their bench so it was all starters in this one and the 57 from the Blackshirts 3 RBs did the trick.
Rock Chalk vs. Who Got the Key to My Cage? Solid and steady output from the entire team of Rock Chalk allowed him to put up triple digits even after Steven Jackson left 3 plays into the game (thank you for the 47 yard TD run at least) Cage had studs like CJ and Bowe not show up and the Bears D put up 21 to keep it honest. McFadden played in the late game to provide a little late night drama, but without any TDs to his name McFadden could not make up the difference.
Move of the Week: It was the first week so not much to really say here. I will give the weekly honor to our newcomer, A Team Named Suh, since he dropped the highest total of the week.
Oops of the Week: Jayhawk Nation wins the award by drafting and starting the KC defense, which gave him negative 4 points and losing by just 3. Blame it on the Henny gets an honorable mention also starting the negative 6 of the Steelers and losing by 10.
Team that Wish They Played Someone Else: Jayhawk Nation of course. Putting up triple digits and taking a loss to the high score of the week is pretty rough.
Team Glad they Played Who They Did: Hide ya Kids got a win this week despite only outscoring 1 team in the league. Sometimes it is all in the matchups.
