WHAT WENT DOWN:
What a week! Lets start off by listing the few undefeated teams left in the league: Ravens, Patriots, Eagles, Vikings, and Broncos. Next week the un-defeated Eagles have a BYE week so they will stay un-defeated but will some of the other no loss teams take their first L. It's likely that the Ravens will fall to 3-1 vs the Raiders. The Texans were heavily favored to win this week and somehow with a 3rd string QB and their best pass catcher (ROB GRONKOWSKI) out, they shutout the Texans. The Vikings also had a surprising win where their surprisingly good defense and their injured up offense won. Sam Bradford is looking great in Minnesota and the absence of Adrian Peterson didn't seem to matter. Right now the Vikings have the no. 1 D in the league ahead of the no. 2 Eagles and no. 3 Broncos. Trevor Siemian is looking like a great choice at starting QB by throwing 4 TD's and a bunch of yards to get the Broncos to 3-0 on the favored Bengals. Matthew Stafford and Aaron Rodgers both had great games but Rodgers barely edged out Stafford's team for the win. Surprisingly the Ravens took out my playoff bet the Jaguars to go 3-0 even with a not amazing team. The Jaguars are still in the playoff race in my opinion so don't worry Jags fans. Odell Beckham vs. Josh Norman was as entertaining as it was last time and even though the Redskins won the game, Odell Beckham won the battle while putting up 120+ yards. The Raiders Vs. Titans game wasn't as high scoring as it was thought to be even though DeMarco Murray had yet ANOTHER great game. He is making a comeback like I said he would. 49ers Vs. Seahawks featured the Seahawks finally looking like their old selves. Christine Michael had a great game rushing. Jimmy Graham had a TD and a lot of yards, Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett were the speedy, catching almost everything receivers, and the D looked better than ever. Russell Wilson had a great game but got injured on a play, was out for a play, came back in for a play and then sat on the sideline. He looked fine but there is a chance he won't play against the Jets next week. Carlos Hyde was really good on the 49ers. Jameis Winston had a great game like he did in week 1 and the Rams some how edged the Bucs out. Jared Goff doesn't even come to mind much anymore. Todd Gurley played like he did last year finally when he won Rookie of the Year. The Chiefs won by a GREAT defensive game. The D had 6 interceptions that included to pick 6's and 2 fumble recoveries. If you had them in fantasy like I happily did you enjoyed a 32 point week for them. Ryan Fitzpatrick looked terrible and after the game the Jets coach Todd Bowles got mad at the team. Some news also for the Jets is they signed former really good Bucs tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins who could see some serious targets sharing the field with Brandon Marshall, Quincy Enunwa, and Eric Decker. He is the starting tight end and he should be good! The Eagles surprisingly crushed the heavily favored Steelers to one of their worst losses ever and showed that they are playoff material. Rookie QB Carson Wentz is looking like a great fit. The Bears sadly lost Jeremy Langford to an injury that will side-line him for 4-6 weeks. I don't know when staring QB Jay Cutler will be back. Dak Prescott had a great game and passed for his first career TD, he will be the starter when Tony Romo comes back I think. The Falcons Saints game was a great running attack from the Falcons spotlighting both Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman, they both scored 25 or more points in fantasy. Matt Ryan was good too. This coming week get ready for Steelers star running back Le'Veon Bell to be back after his completing his 3 game suspension. Also Texans star DE J.J. Watt re-injures his back and will be out for a while, possibly the season!...Raiders cut amazing pro bowl fullback Marcel Reece. Bears sign ex-Lions running back Joquie Bell.
Thanks for reading it was a great week and I will have posts coming soon!
