ROOKIE WATCH:

Cobb 105+ TD Return.

[Nate River]

NO Defense: 3 points, even with the Sproles TD. Yikes.

[Nick Soapdish]

If it's any consolation Nick, it looks like Reggie Bush may be the Week 1 starter after all.

I thought about switching him to be my starter, but he's up against New England so I decided to see what they'd give Grant. (Which isn't much. Why'd they pull him in the middle of the drive and give Starks the score?! ) Anyway, I'd rather make a mistake by inaction than by acting too quickly which is why I sat on the sidelines and watched Jordy Nelson and Darren Sproles get nabbed. I'm not sure that Jordy's better than my current bench receiver because Rodgers has so many other options (and now Cobb!). And Sproles is probably going to be a feast-or-famine type player. He's clearly the third option in terms of carries and might not always do quite as well with receptions and returns.

Leatherbacks (Nick Soapdish) vs. Ellicott Thundercats (True)
Leatherbacks favored by ~5.

I'm not totally sure why I'm going with True in this matchup, most of the projected point look right to me. It might be the combination of my Week 1 skepticism in Percy Harvin and a niggling feeling Cedric Benson will do well against the Browns.

The projected points for my guys look a bit optimistic to me - particularly Grant and that was before this game. I would've given him a 1/3 chance at a TD (at best) and maybe 50 more yards. I'm still betting on myself, but forgot to vote earlier and now I can't.

What A Game.

But I wish Brees could've passed for a TD and two point conversion. More points for me! (But he had more FP then Rodgers AND Ingram in this game)

Ryan Matthews for a QB, anyone?

What a sh*tty black hole I have at QB. Peyton Manning and David Garrard.

NFL mandates teams to publish fantasy stats In-Game.

So if you go to a game you can keep track now.

Bah. Starting A.J. Green, will Jwolf be right about my choosing him?

Arian Foster is projected not to play and I can't find a better replacement with no clue as to what Jones role will be. At least I know Green will play, dropping Tate was dumb even if Ward is the projected started and Slaton is to be involved to.

Nuts.

[Insurrection]

I'm considering myself mad and a homer at this point but I don't like the Miami defense matchup.

Kendricks you're in for Gronkowski! MWAHAHA!!!!

[Mik3]

Good luck gentlemen (and woman) on another season about to begin. Going to be surrounded by about 100 buffalo wings and a couple of large pizzas at my party while I watch my team destroy golden thumbs.

[Nate River]

Could not have started worse....

Foster out, Bengals have 10 first quater points, but not a one to AJ Green, Ryan just got INT'd, and Baltimore D all over Pit.

And Atlanta turns it over again....(I have Turner in another league).

Sigh....

I have Turner in THIS league.

The Falcons O looks awful.

The Falcons O looks awful.

And Colt McCoy, my former backup QB has two TD's.

[Insurrection]

34-0 Texans over Colts.

My god I knew they'd be bad, but WOW.

[Nate River]

Matt Ryan fumbles touchdown Bears......

7 Turnovers by the Steelers geez.......

Fantasy having a better day then Reality.

I'm sad loss of Jackson killed us, but then Smith, Amendola, Bartell. Ouch. Hope they're better next week, wait now Bradford.

Crap. Double Crap.

Yeah thats unfortunate, reminded me of our opener last season. Injuries are a b*tch and when it rains, it pours.

Don't let me catch a happy Eagle fan on the street right now. I'm not happy AT ALL.

I'll be better tomorrow, but me no happy right now.

Jackson goes on twitter and says "Time To Bring it" makes a 47 yard TD, then one play later he has a strained quad. Amendola dislocated his elbow, and Bradford might have a broken finger. I'm feeling really malicious right now.

Update:

Bradford seems to be okay. But man that was a scare, season would've ended there, but it is a nerve thing and his hand was wrapped up, he needs to be back for Monday. Still loss Amendola for a long while though, I don't know about Jackson. It's kind of annoying, if he didn't get hurt and leave this game might be much different.

Enough about my team's problems, Peterson just had a rush and the Vikings are looking good against the Chargers.

The NFC West might be won with a 6-10 record this year because of the lockout, yeesh the division looks awful. That Cam Newton TD was pretty good for a rookie.

Nate Kaeding is injured. As the Chargers are at it again, charging energy by losing early.

UPDATE:

A) Cardinals Defense is missing Cromartie

B) WOW THAT CAM NEWTON first half end TD was good!

Probably would have made a good difference, our linebackers were kitten.



And man does Cam Newton look good, actually outplaying Kolb.

[Insurrection]

Falcons look bad on offense against Bears.
Bill killed the Chiefs, Fitzpatrick is a great sleeper pick for that game.
Bengals over Browns
Vikings are up over San Diego, no Kaeding no field goals, Tolbert just scored
Man Giants are missing their D right now....GROSSMAN!?! KERRIGAN!?!

Cam Newton has over 200 yards and 2 TDs.

UPDATE:

Cam Newton just made his first rushing TD and got an unsportsmanlike call for his TD celebration being an air guitar.

Newton needs 15 more passing yards to break Peyton Manning's record for Rookie Passing yards in Week 1
