WEEK !THREE! PREDICTIONS
*i keep forgetting there's games on Thursday nights every week now.. 

errrdayimRussell'in vs Green Nicks and Cam

QB: so glad i was able to pick up Rivers.. thanks to whoever was kind enough to make the move and drop him. now don't get me wrong, i'm still going to ride Wilson but he's gonna need a couple more weeks to get use to the NFL game.. he led his team to a 27-7 victory last week.. yes he didn't do much but my boy's got so much swag. with this said.. i think Cam will tear it up on a prime time game tonight, at home, with the Panthers putting a schlacking on those Giants
(PICK--> Green Nicks and Cam)

WR: even though Megatron hasn't scored yet, it's just a matter of time. (if Stafford and his triple chinned self would quit throwing INT's) Roddy showed he's still the #1 WR in Atlanta even w/ the emergence of Julio Jones. and V-Jax is doing just fine.. just as a i predicted before the season. Chubs has great WR's but not having Nicks this game is a big loss (**is it time to change your team name again Justina??) ;)  take him out of your line up if you read this analysis before the game tonight..
(PICK--> errrdayimRussell'in)

RB: all my RB match ups suck this week so i'm gonna have to hope for the best and that the Lawfirm and Doug Martin do me right.. Skittles has a tough match up this week vs GB and Clay Matthews. that guy wrecked so much havoc on Cutler that he forced Cutler to take out his frustrations on his 500lb left tackle... not so smart. he might sit on you and Cutler might feel the effect of what it's like if Justina were to sit on someone.. ahh ahah just kidding chubby. Reggie Bush went OFF last week.. will he repeat? no. but i think my RB's still won't do enough to win this head to head
(PICK--> Green Nicks and Cam)

TE: this is the week Witten finally gets going. his spleen has been costing him valuable chances and costing me valuable points.. SUCK IT UP guy. Pettigrew scored last week but this guy still has crappy hands.. and let's hope most of the passes go Calvin's way.
(PICK--> errrdayimRussell'in)

K: David Akers.. hands down. dude just keeps getting better with age.
(PICK--> Green Nicks and Cam)

DEF: i picked up Buffalo in hopes they can beat up on the awful Browns.. (let's just hope Trent Richardson doesn't do what he done did last week) but i'm going to go with Clay Matthews this week. i think he'll get another 2-3 sacks on my boy Russell.. just please don't hurt him too badly.. please. thanks
(PICK--> Green Nicks and Cam)

WINNER: Green Nicks and Cam

odoyle RULES vs Rainbow Warriors

QB: Matt Ryan and Rodgers both had sub par games last week.. it was a bit more surprising to see it from Rodgers though. he bounces back in a huge way this week (esp if he's able to get Jennings back) and as much as I hate to say it... beats Seattle and Russell. Ryan is going up against a decent Chargers D and will put up decent numbers but Rodgers is out for revenge
(PICK--> Rainbow Warriors)

WR: what a great pick up in LaFell for Tim... he's done much better than i think any of us expected so far.. with Smitty slightly hobbled and teams double covering him, I'd look for another big outing from LaFell tonight. getting Jennings back will also booster his WR. Patriots brought back Deion Branch.. bad omen for Brandon Lloyd? he hasn't impressed me yet.. never has.. always thought he was a one time wonder in Denver. or maybe he's too stupid like Chad Ochocinco and couldn't learn the plays/offense.. LOL that would be hilarious. Antonio Brown and DeSean are just #2s which are hit or miss.
(PICK--> odoyle RULES)

RB: McCoy and Murray have okay match ups this week while Jeff continues to ride Gore until he breaks down.. didn't I say week 3 was it? then he'll start to get hurt and put you in a difficult situation like he did w/ me last year.. and Jeff's other back is who? i've never heard of this guy.. maybe he's a rookie or maybe because he's in in Lucifer Shanahan's backfield and i don't care to know about this guy.. because of this..
(PICK--> odoyle RULES)

TE: Pitta vs Gronk. you'd think Gronk would be the obvious choice right? but not so fast.. his wing-man Hernandez got hurt and will be out for 1 month+ so this allows defenses to key in and double team Gronk.. sure this won't prevent him from getting his points but it sure makes it a lot more difficult (plus he has Ray Lewis lurking around back there) Pitta.. is what seems like the most targeted TE in the league so far.. great pick up Tim.. (I got him in another league and I wanted him here but you got to him first. poop)

(PICK--> odoyle RULES)

K: Sea-bass decides to pack on another 5 pounds over the course of the week and thus his range increases from 60 yd FGs to 70 yds. plus they're playing against Steelers so they're sure to stall more than a few times
(PICK--> Rainbow Warriors)

DEF: Houston's D will have a tough time containing Peyton but they'll be serviceable enough. plus i hate New England. the end
(PICK--> Rainbow Warriors)

WINNER: *tie* intangibles --> odoyle RULES

The Debbinator vs David Li
 *David LI once again changes his name YET AGAIN and I had to look over again who is changing what.. it's very annoying.. therefore

QB: The Debbinator

WR: The Debbinator

RB: The Debbinator

TE: The Debbinator

K: The Debbinator

DEF: The Debbinator

WINNER: The Debbinator (i don't think any explanation is need. thanks and have a great day)

THE Pain Train vs Spider Pig

QB: how luke is 2-0 with his terrible team.. one can only wonder.. but he won't be undefeated after this week. Brady turns in a terrible performance against Baltimore.. history shows he's not very good when he plays them. Stafford comes back and throws 2 more INT's but he also throws 4 TD's .. all to Megatron. yes sir
(PICK--> THE Pain Train)

WR: Julio had a terrible showing last week but he's able to bounce back this week. old man Wayne looks young again with 2 incredible outings so far.. it's nice to have Luck isn't it? Austin and Wallace had nice showings but I don't think they will be consistent week to week. def not this week. Fitz, wouldn't it be nice to have Cam Newton throwing to you instead of Kevin Klobber or a Skeleton throwing to you? you would get to play alongside Smitty Smith too.. just a suggestion because your situation is (to quote Sir Charles Barkley: TUUUUUURRRRRRBIBULL) in Arizona
(PICK--> THE Pain Train)

RB: Jamaal Charles and Sproles are his starting RB's.. LOLLLLLLLLL i literally just looked at that and laughed out loud. like i said, i don't know how he's 2-0.. run DMC has a tough outing this week as he's had a tough outing so far this season but it's only a matter of time.. but IN THE MEAN TIME, CJ Spiller will tear up the Browns D. another 150yfs and 2 TD day is not out of the question
(PICK--> THE Pain Train)


TE: Finley has all the potential in the world but this guy has the worst hands in the world.. maybe he can get some of that super glue stuff they used in that movie The Replacements with Keanu Reeves.. you know.. the black guy who couldn't catch anything.. Finley reminds me of him. Vernon Davis is a great option in SF

(PICK--> Spider Pig)

K: what a heart breaker for Gostkowski.. down by 2 w/ a chance to kick a 42 yd FG to win in the final seconds.. (he had already had TWO 50+yd FGs earlier in the game.. he redeems himself this week)

(PICK--> THE Pain Train)

DEF: i would normally go w/ an awful Rams O against the stingy Bears' D but as I said earlier, Brady (no matter how "good" he is) struggles against the Ravens so i'm gonna go against odds and pick Baltimore

(PICK--> THE Pain Train)

 WINNER: THE Pain Train

RelientK vs choubacca

QB: Romo is so erratic.. how do you do SO well in week 1 and then fall completely flat against a young D in Seattle during week 2?! good luck w/ that headache Laura. RGIII came back down to earth just a tad bit in week 2 when you look at how he did in week 1. will do enough this week to win this match up.
(PICK--> choubacca)

WR: Marshall did nothing last week.. which cost me the match-up in another league i'm in.. so i'm pissed at him for dropping the TD. Nelson will benefit with Jennings back and I don't even want to talk about the Chiefs and that terrible offense. Cruz will steal looks w/ Nicks out but that may also mean more double coverage. Thomas is clearly Peyton's favorite target when compared to Decker.. let's face it, Thomas is faster, bigger, stronger & black. (not hating, just stating the truth) he's the better player obviously and Amendola has been a nice surprise so far. 

(PICK--> choubacca)

RB: Rice & MJD vs Foster & Trent this one is tough.. because they're all so good.. but I'm gonna go with Foster & Trent Richardson because they have more favorable match-ups
(PICK--> choubacca)

TE: Gates is back this week and his sub (former Carolina Panther, Dante Rosario) scored THREE TD's in his place last week.. WHAT?! Rivers clearly loves the TE check down.. expect Gates to get those numbers this week 
(PICK--> choubacca)

K: Kaeding kicks 4 FG's this week as this will be a shoot out vs the Falcons.. 
(PICK--> choubacca)

DEF: whoaaa Laura FINALLY has a better match up in this final category.. lol doesn't help her much.. she always seems to pick up really bad players/match-ups every season.. seems like she is forever stuck in the bottom of our league each and every year.. sighh
(PICK--> RelientK)

WINNER: choubacca

    2004 - 2nd place
    2007- 3rd
    2008 - 2nd
    I didn't play in 2009 or 2010, FYI.

    I was totally going to say something nice about how impressed I was with how thorough you are with your predictions, but not after you clearly do NOT know what you are talking about regarding me and my team.

  2. calm yourself LC! okay so you may have gotten good match-ups/lucky during the playoffs and it happens but I was saying how your team is terrible OVERALL.. like for example-->

    2004: 7-7 reg season
    2007: 6-7 reg season
    2008: 5-8 reg season
    2009: 4-9 reg season (MrsJones)?

    not hatin'.. just stating a trend that I saw that you were never above .500 any season you've played so far.. plus an 0-2 start this year isn't good either..

    you should say you are impressed w/ my analysis anyway! :D

    1. Haha Ok fine I forgot about 2009. And you looked at all my past seasons just so you could tell me at the end of your predictions how terrible my teams were?! That's just mean. I know I'm not a very good manager because I have favorite/not favorite teams and players and I like to think one bad game doesn't lead to another. Too much hope, I guess.

      Besides college football maybe, who cares about regular season more than the post season? It doesn't matter how you start, only how you finish.

      The LA Kings - no one cares that they barely made the playoffs, and they're the Stanley Cup champs!

    2. In her defense, I think Laura has selected one of her better teams this year compared to previous years. Rice + MJD are probably the.. 3rd best RB duo in the league (#1: Spiller + McFadden, #2 (arguable): Foster + T.Richardson). Marshall and Nelson will be better than most may think, I believe. And Romo / Roethlisberger get the job done.

      Her team didn't do so hot last week, but week 1 she had the 2nd highest score in the league.

      Bad matchups: yes. Bad picks: not so much this year, compared to in the past (in my opinion). Just trying to give credit where it's due.

    3. Well, actually Gabs had the 2nd highest score in week 1...but I was 3rd!

    4. lol no. i didn't look through to tell you how terrible your teams were.. i just remembered you never did so hot during the regular season but then always managed to do really well during playoffs! i just pulled that up just now because you told me how you finished each season so i thought i would go back and look at stats :)

      and yes, i totally agree with Tim. you have one of the better teams this year when we compare it w/ past teams. Rice & MJD in my opinion is the top RB duo in our league

      like i said, i wasn't trying to be mean. just writing my analysis.
