Week 1 Recap
In honor of Matthew Berry and his very terrible weekly article on ESPN called “Love/Hate” I present to you: Doug Franz’s “Fantastic/Fail”
Fantastic: Ochocinco Reborn . It’s not every week a team gets 82 pts from its WRs/QB but when Drew Brees goes up against the Super Bowl hopeful Bucs and likely 2018 MVP Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know the Saints are going to have to air it out and get me all those tasty points. I’m sure this is a sustainable fantasy model that won’t backfire.
Fail: Flip Flopkins and Beastmode 2.0 . Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The top two finishers from last year start their season 0-1 and set the tone for a more reasonable year in Romosexual. A return to balance in the Force. Restoring the proper order of how things should be. It’s been a long time coming, but we are all happy to see Alex and Kelly at the bottom of the standings. Todd Gurley isn’t going to single handedly save Kelly this time. And for God’s sakes Alex. Learn to draft a RB, would you? My kicker got more points than the 8pts from your backfield.
Fantastic: House Hilton aka Tyreek Hill. Matthew manages a win despite having really nothing happening on his roster besides one great game from a great WR. I almost feel bad for Nick. Almost. He’ll be fine… he still has the 49ers to root for in real life.
Fail: Rolls Royce Freeman. A quick story. Last week, I offered Bowlsby a package of Drew Brees and Royce Freeman in exchange for Deshaun Watson and Marshawn Lynch. Bowlsby said ‘nay’ and moved on. This trade would have gotten him 43pts instead of 23pts from his QB/RB combo. So this lands him as a “Fail” this week. What also lands him as a “Fail”? Getting the second lowest point total. Sure, he got the win but he’s not going to play Alex every week. Calling it now: Bowlsby is going 2-11.
If I didn’t get to you this week, I ran out of time and I apologize. Something came up: I gotta go figure out where to spend the $200 prize after I win this season. Onto Week 2!
