CHOKE!

Post by Bubba Grizz »

Everyone was expecting Jamal Lewis to put up some big numbers but the Browns shut him down hard. Damn. I needed those points.

Also, the Rams were expected to walk all over the Cardinals and they held on to the very end keeping the scoring somewhat low. :evil:

It's the Browns. They will get back to normal shortly.

That said, people sure loved it around here!

Browns did play some exciting football yesterday. I would say they will end up at 9-7 or 10-6...possibly a wild card depending on what the Steelers do in the division. Its definitely going to come down to those two teams. I would normally be saying Baltimore and Cleveland, but good god, they still have no fucken offense.

Being a Steelers fan, it is nice to see the Browns getting back to the old ways of winning. I love that rivalry.

My opponent (teh Shockers) has 114 points with his 2 RB and his DEF still to play tonight. I'll just have to hope that my league high 178 points are enough to hold him off.

If this keeps up, the rest of you aren't even playing for second. :twisted:

I was down by like 60 points after the early games...and then T.O played...and then Priest : ) 6 TDs took care of my otherwise lackluster performance in week one.

Kasay tonight although I don't need him.

The Cardinals look good. I know not many probably watched them but I was impressed with Fitzgerald. They need Boldin back.

Emmitt Smith looked much better than I thought he would although I'm sure there's an injury in his near future with that old body.

Alexander being gone for up to two weeks really puts me in a bad spot, but hopefully he's good to go this Sunday!

I guess I'm looking pretty good for drafting Griffin so early, just praying the Broncos o-line stays healthy and Plummer keeps being Plummer.

I think I have this week wrapped up unless Ryan Longwell manages to get 30+ points tonight. =p

Gannon played 'ok' but I had him benched in favor of Trent Green, who couldn't get hardly a pass off to Gonzalez or Holmes. =( Green's fantasy numbers last year were fairly good, hope he can get back to dumping it off to those two on play actions sometime this season!

Also, I have Champ Bailey as my defensive player, who looks like he'll be playing on both sides of the ball some this year. I should get extra points for that!

I would be careful with Trent Green to be honest.. Kansas seems to lack Wide Receivers and if opponents follow the Denver strategy of taking Gonzales out of the game.. wow.. Kansas will be in a world of hurt.

After one week of games I tend to believe Kansas was overhyped.

KC can still pound away with the run. KC WR Kennison looked ok last night but Dante Hall isn't the answer at WR.

Denver's strategy on Gonzalez has me worried. There's not a lot of Champ Baileys around though and Denver has perfect coverage on Gonzalez all night long which won't happen every time.
