The fantasy world is going crazy, because most of the #1 picks are injured! Yeah it is going to be that kind of season. Football–at that level–is not a pick up game. You have to acclimate and these athletes didn’t get that opportunity. We see the results. Barkley, CMC, Thomas, Garoppolo, The entire superstar set of the Niner’s defense. All of these stars are wrecked and I expect more carnage in week three.
My picks are in a sort of carnage. Let me start by saying one of my leagues is so janky that Burrow scored 73 fantasy points last week. 73! That is madness. So, I am starting Burrow this week and perhaps from here on out. If he is going to go crazy like that then I’m all for the feast.
11-5 last week means I am 21-11 overall. That does not suck. I do still pick the crazy ones though. In my defense, the Giants would have one with Barkley and the Cowboys… I seriously turned it off with a little over 2 left and said there was no way they scored 9 in 2. Way. Absolutely a way. The Falcons are a collapse waiting to happen. Never again. Well, maybe. Especially if they play the Jets. The Jets are awful and Sam Darnold is not the hero NY wanted. Full stop.
Actually, really full stop. Jeez… I burned my ten without making picks. Okay. Tomorrow then.
