Why didn't I start Matt Schaub!? T_T.

[Burning_Wulf]

Now, I see that not starting Donald Driver today was a mistake on my part.

The same reason I started Steve Slaton. My receivers bailed me out this week.

[Sir Whirly]

I get 26 points from my defense and it still looks like I lose. Jeez...

[Nee-sama]

I'm stoked! I got the top score this week (unless something miraculous happens in tonights game) go Gama Warriors! hehe

[Sir Whirly]

whooo!!! Come from behind victory. Thank you Dallas Clark!

[Zatren6]

Yeahhhh Ronnie Brown! Gave me a nice boost to my points, even though I didn't need it for the matchup. Still, he kept me at third in the standings. 25 points, wow.

[Jwolf0]

Tee-hee Chris Johnson.

Week 2 results:

Sparky McRandomsons (Jwolf0) 120
True Playaz (True) 67

-Chris Johnson running wild (can we have Tennessee play Houston every week plz?) plus a complete faceplant from anyone on True's team not named Ochocinco or wearing a Raven on their helmet made this a very forgettable Sunday for True. He'll need Brady to bounce back big to avoid going 0-3 next week.

Dark Adepts (Burning_Wulf) 101
Knuckleheaded Ninjas (Mik3) 74

-Wulf's faith in Philip Rivers continues to pay off, as the Chargers QB goes crazy through the air to lead the Adepts to a 2-0 start. Meanwhile Mik3's season continues to get rougher and rougher. Two weeks, two QBs knocked out.
Also, this just in: dual Steve Smiths are apparently not only good for your fantasy football team, but protect you from harmful UV rays!

Konoha Shinobi (Sir Whirly) 112
Bailoutpackage4lyfe (Illmatic) 104

-Down sixteen headed into the Monday Night Game, Sir Whirly needed a huge game from Dallas Clark to have any chance of winning. 183 receiving yards and a touchdown later Sir Whirly avoids the dreaded 0-2 start, giving Illmatic this week's "Kick to the Groin" award for the team that probably should have won, but didn't.

Rochester Bulls (FullmetalninjaED) 59
Zatties! (Zatren6) 100

-The autodraft giveth, and the autodraft taketh away.

Scorehappy3 (Anewhope2) 91
Gama Warriors (Nee-sama) 139

-Scorehappy was game, but fell under the combined onslaught of Andre Johnson (10 rec., 149 yards, 2 TDs) and Frank Gore (16 carries, 207 yards, 2 TDs). You hate to say "Must Win Game" in Week 3, but that's what Scorehappy and True face in their Week 3 matchup.

The Generals (Nuclear Raven) 90
Tokyo Raiders (roninmedia) 109

-Good news for Nuclear Raven: Peyton Manning had a good game. Bad news: It wasn't with Reggie Wayne. He needed both to come up big to catch Da Raidaz, and it didn't happen.

[True]

Brady is going to have fight off the rust and adjust to the game a little bit more. Not having Wes Welker was unfortunate as Joey Galloway wasn't helping (guy is too old) and relying on a rookie WR is tough against Rex Ryan's defense. Should bounce back next week. I need some serious help in the WR and RB category whom in both categories only have one touchdown after two weeks. Both my running backs have secondary running backs running for scores (Mcgahee for Rice and Betts for Portis) so I'll have to scout out for some more depth if I don't see any improvement this week. The Ravens defense is giving up a lot of points but it'll get better once the secondary adjusts. Facing the Browns this week should help.

EDIT 1: I just noticed I used category and running back twice in the same sentences. Odd...

EDIT 2: Changed team name. I need a miracle to win!

[Mik3]

I got to watch Hasselbeck get that rib injury and I laughed because I just saw that same injury last week. Its still early in the season, so I think its time to start gaining back some ground.

[Zatren6]

Maybe you'd do well to pick up Sanchez, Mik3.

[Illmatic]

I knew Clark was gonna kill it, I freaking knew it. Get well soon Welker.

[Mik3]

Maybe you'd do well to pick up Sanchez, Mik3.

I was but then that little girl illmatic just did




standings have been updated on the first page

First place and not looking back. 1972 Dolphins = 2009 Tokyo Raiders.

First place and not looking back. 1972 Dolphins = 2009 Tokyo Raiders.

We will see. If I have some more comebacks like this last match up...

-edit- Ugh, both my defenses are playing good offenses. Arizona vs Indy and 49ers vs Minnesota. Who do you think I should play guys?

Edited by Sir Whirly, 22 September 2009 - 11:42 PM.

[roninmedia]

Rpll the dice with the 49ers. They are able to stack the box to stop the run because Nate Clements can play on an island. They've done so with the Cardinals and Seahawks although Adrian Peterson is certainly a whole other animal.

How do you trust my advice, I don't play you this week.

First place and not looking back. 1972 Dolphins = 2009 Tokyo Raiders.

You're kidding me right? Believe me you'll lose a few games this season.

Week 3 Previews!

Note that favorites are determined by the starting lineup as of this writing and are subject to change without notice. We here at H&E do not condone gambling, lines are for entertainment purposes only. See a doctor if reading this causes nausea, high blood pressure, and/or spastic eye ticking.

Scorehappy3 (0-2) at True Miracles (0-2) (Matchup)
True Miracles favored by 13.

-True is praying a name change will do him good, but it's an angry Tom Brady and a Baltimore D facing a hapless Cleveland team that looks to carry him to his first win of the season. Anewhope2 is praying for a 75-0 Chicago win to propel Scorehappy, but T.O. and Buffalo facing off against the Saints could help by racking up some serious points in a shootout.

Dark Adepts (2-0) at Rochester Bulls (1-1) (Matchup)
Rochester Bulls favored by 7.

-Burning_Wulf takes Philip Rivers and the Smith twins (Steve and Steve, no relation) to face everyone's favorite autodraft team. Now that Antonio Bryant is actually scheduled to play (and therefore deliver points), Ed's RB duo of Forte and Westbrook expect to pace the CPU to a win. If the Bulls go 2-1 Ed should think about paying attention to this team again.

The Generals (1-1) at Gama Warriors (1-1) (Matchup)
The Generals favored by 4.

-Nuclear Raven can't have Reggie Wayne lay another egg if he wants to win this tight matchup. MJD is drooling after seeing what Chris Johnson did to the Texans' D, and I almost want to pick him to have a better day than All-Day. Almost. Still it's very close, and as things stand right now I have to go with the Gama Warriors in a very small upset. Mostly because I still have no faith in Mark Clayton to even get the modest 5 points he's predicted for.

Konoha Shinobi (1-1) at Knuckleheaded Ninjas (0-2) (Matchup)
Konoha Shinobi favored by 1.

-The most important body part of the week just might be Marion Barber's thigh. Since Dallas has the Monday Night game mik3 has time to weigh his options. I'm assuming that the Barbarian will receive limited touches for the game and give this one to Sir Whirly. I mean, Washington plays Detroit! Santana Moss has to score this week, right?

Tokyo Raiders (2-0) at Bailoutpackage4lyfe (0-2) (Matchup)
Tokyo Raiders favored by 5.

-DeSean Jackson has a sore groin. Marques Colston and Vincent Jackson should receive a lot of looks. As long as Tony Romo doesn't play like it's December (or last week) roninmedia will keep his dream of matching the '72 Dolphins alive.

Sparky McRandomsons (2-0) at Zatties! (2-0) (Matchup)
Sparky McRandomsons favored by 10.

-Drew Brees will get his, but the matchup favors Team Longname in almost every other category. They're hoping to ride the Fred Jackson Magic Bus for one more week until Marshawn Lynch returns from suspension and Chris Johnson.... Um, Chris? I'm not greedy or anything, just half of the 45 you put up last week is fine.

[True]

Hahaha Jwolf as always your breakdowns are fantastic!

Have you seen the NHL thread and the fantasy hockey league Zat has set up?

[roninmedia]

You're kidding me right? Believe me you'll lose a few games this season.

Closest I've gotten is 14-2. It's within the realm of possibility. But I don't sure as hell as expect it. 9-5 gets you into the playoffs in most leagues.
