I completely missed out on week one, so the official start of my waiver season comes… quite a bit late. It is just before 7:30 on a Sunday morning and I am trying to get it in before these games get moving. So, here we go.
CAR over ATL
This is an emotion game. The coaches are going to be in the locker room spinning that America’s Team nonsense and I think it is going to work. We over publicized the storm as an overcorrection to what happened in Puerto Rico (let’s hope 3k don’t die here, right?). Carolina wants this one badly. They’ll get it.
LAC over BUF
Buffalo flat out sucks and it is unfortunate. This is the team I grabbed in Madden. I traded or cut the entire offense. Perhaps the ownership ought to do the same.
MIN over GB
I don’t know that Rodgers is going to be able to play–let alone be 100%. No A-aron, no chance. I blame Izod.
CLE over NO
It is time.
NYJ over MIA
I still despise the Darnold pick. I still do not respect it. However, the dude has a decent supporting cast and Miami does not–even on a short week.
Quick Hits:
KC over PIT
PHI over TB
HOU over TEN
IND over WAS
LA over AZ
SEA over CHI
SF over DET
DEN over OAK
This is a revenge game for my favorite punter. He’ll get some chances to hurt the Raiders with field position, but the real issue is the culture. The Raiders are going back to what Gruden made them, but it takes time. It also takes decent receivers.
NYG over DAL
This is entirely about my love for the G-men. Sort of. The short pass game has been crazy good for the G-men and if they keep up that stout run D, the Cowboys will fall.
