Kadarius Toney might be good. He only had two targets and caught both for a total of 12 yards, but the crazy whip route he ran is exactly why he got drafted in the first place. The dude goes hard every play. Even when he blocks he goes all out. That sort of effort will get noticed in KC and will get him on the field. Will it mean more KC wins? Not yet, but who knows?
I know this week is going to be a fun one. The Giants are back at it. Next up is the Texans, and I am waiting to see how the G-men respond to the loss of their defensive play caller as they are forced to contend with one of the toughest runners in the league in Dameon Pierce. Should be a rather Giants sort of game. 4th Q will decide it.
The rest of the league is looking rather odd. The Bills fell to the Jets, like someone said. That means the J-E-T-S are a half game out of first and the NFC and AFC Eastern divisions are looking quite saucy (No Gardner pun intended). If Allen is legit injured, Bills are out of the race. It falls to a Jets v. Dolphins race. If not…
What nobody is talking about is the upcoming return of Deshaun Watson. It won’t mean much this season, with the division presently owned by the Ravens, but it matters for fantasy owners like me. Watson raises the profile of all the Wideouts on that squad. Sure, he’s a dirtbag, and I don’t excuse it, but I also didn’t bury my copies of Silver Linings Playbook and Django unchained because Harvey Weinstein made them. I hope Watson pays his price for his sick fetishizing of female masseurs. I hope I can get a WR some more points because he plays too.
