NFL Week 3 Review

Had a tough week in fantasy, losing 138-130, though I was without two of my top 5 picks. Vick is a BEAST.

Tennessee Titans 29
New York Giants 10
Yikes. The Giants are BAD.

Buffalo Bills 30
New England Patriots 38
The Bills suck and the Pats ain't all that good. Next.

Cleveland Browns 17
Baltimore Ravens 24
Baltimore isn't all that great either. Giving up 173 rushing yards? 144 of which to PEYTON HILLIS? Shameful.

Pittsburgh Steelers 38
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 13
Ok.

Cincinnati Bengals 20
Carolina Panthers 7
Cedric Benson is a beast. Numbers weren't great, but he's legit. Glad to see him doing well. I hope Steve Smith gets out of Carolina before his career is over...

Atlanta Falcons 27
New Orleans Saints 24 (OT)
Wow. The Saints lost a close game, and in OT no less? Falcons must've played pretty well. Oh? What's that? They won the turnover battle (1-3) AND dominated time of possession (46-27)? And it was only a three point decision?

I didn't see the game, and there are certainly plenty of reasons for the above to be true. It's interesting, though.

San Francisco 49ers 10
Kansas City Chiefs 31
The 9ers are by FAR the biggest trainwreck of the young season. Frank Gore has managed to remain relevant as far as my fantasy team is concerned (a testament to his elite ability), but good LORD. Meanwhile, Jamaal Charles continues to outshine Thomas Jones and continues to take a back seat. TJ had a great game this week, but it's still quite perplexing. Maybe they're saving him for the 2nd half. I hope.

Detroit Lions 10
Minnesota Vikings 24
Defense stepped up for Minny. Adrian Peterson was a monster. Meaning, nothing of particular interest.

Dallas Cowboys 27
Houston Texans 13
Roy Williams had a huge game. Of course. Give one of those touchdowns to Dez and I get a win. Fuck.

Washington Redskins 16
St Louis Rams 30
BY FAR weakest position on the team: cornerback. eAngelo Fall and Carlos Rogers are both HORSESHIT. Portis looks like Edge at the end of his career, which sucks, but finally Ryan Torain gets his chance to prove me right. CP is still the best blocking back OF ALL TIME ha.

Philadelphia Eagles 28
Jacksonville Jaguars 3
VICK. To be fair he's played a Packers defense that prepared for Kevin Kolb and then the Lions and Jaguars; not exactly much of a challenge. But he looks amazing. He's the MVP of the league so far, for whatever that's worth.

Indianapolis Colts 27
Denver Broncos 13
Three receivers in this game had at least 140 yards. Denver's Brandon Lloyd (169) and Jabar Gaffney (140), and Indy's Austin Collie (171). WHO AGAIN??? I thought that was interesting.

San Diego Chargers 20
Seattle Seahawks 27
I took the points in this game but I wish had went all the way with my gut and taken the 'Hawks straight up. Nice to see Leon Washington do well.

Oakland Raiders 23
Arizona Cardinals 24
So Oakland just sucks. Or Arizona is a little better than I thought. Or both. I don't know if anyone's saying anything about it but Darren McFadden is looking VERY good so far...

New York Jets 31
Miami Dolphins 23
This WOULD be a shootout. Go Mark Sanchez.

Green Bay Packers 17
Chicago Bears 20
So the Bears are for real, huh?
