Week 1 RecapTroll Hunters (128) over Indian Outlaws (108) No picks caused would’ve impacted these results. Troll Hunters had 3 RBs with top 10 weeks. Horrible WR production and QB production and elected to avoid starting the vikes (16 pt) this week. However, still put up top 3 results this week. Indian Outlaws also didn’t have any potential bench help and weak production across the board (except WR1 for the Giants Evan Engram). A fair amount of potential but also a fair amount of bust potential as well… We’ll just see if he can turn it around week 2. Mullynation (107) over NorthSide Angels (80) Basically this was the pillow fight of the week 3rd worst vs worst scores of the week… However, one move away from a Mullynation upset. Swap Michel for Jackson and Mullynation falls to (0-1). If NSA did that, I would of accused him from being from the future… He had to take Michel here as well as the Jags. Drafting the Jags and benching them was the best idea but a tough one knowing you have to lose a bench spot that week… Outside of the expected Thomas performance, Lamar was outstanding but everyone else was 100% disappointing. Mullynation a great performance from Watson and solid performance for Kamara. But a off week gave her 105 points and that was a 100% off week. I would expect better results next week from Mullynation. Big Ass Cup O’ Franzia (113) over Twin City Tree Cats (110) One of the closest battles this week. Tree cats did everything they could to muster up 110 (really really doubt Mark Andrews would’ve been started with no experience). Outside of that Tree Cats maxed their score with would I feel was his best line-up available. Great start for Jacobs and good for Brees. Outside of that, pretty average or expected across the board (see below for rankings to continue Tree Cats expecations). Franzia might be the roller coaster team of the year. A lot of mid tiers who could boom, bust or be average which makes it real tough to set up that line-up weekly. Great move adding Sanders over other bench spots to earn this win. But he also had Gallup who could’ve made him a top 5 score if swapped for shepard. If I had Franzia’s team I would have so many regrets week to week if the final results don’t end favorable like they did this week. However, I guess having the name “Big Ass Cup O’ Franzia” has given you a season of regrets so I’m sure you are used to it right now. 302 Cadets (138) over Vicious Veg-Heads (100) This one was another one side battle when you look at it. 40ish point smack down but 2nd lowest score from VVs with only the coin flip Brown/Jackson giving him a potential 10 pts would’ve have changed anything. Maybe… Maybe… Brown could’ve performed a miracle if he was still on the Raiders… but that would’ve been highly unlikely. Also 302 had his line-up picked since the draft so that wasn’t going to change anything. Worst news for 302 is Tyreek Hill his WR1 is out for weeks and he’s got no replacement. Jeffery’s honestly can’t be expected 20ish points a week with how many weapons the eagles have but his RBs are more potent than expected so that could be deadly for the returning champ. Veg-heads needs some waiver hits or outstanding performance from his WR1s on a weekly basis or hope for off weeks (like Mullynation this week) to steal wins this season. River Gypsies (129) over Big City Hillbillies (124) This was the best game of the week and both teams had chances to either win or lose this week. Let me start by saying that RGs would’ve killed if he had played Watkins which I did see as a viable flex play over Marvin Jones. But he was left on the bench which I am sure won’t be the case for a lot of weeks to come. However, this was also BCH game to win. If he swaps Hilton this would’ve been an easy win. Any WR/Flex spot swapped with Hilton would’ve resulted in a W for BCH. NOTE and taboo: I did play Hilton in another league so this isn’t simply me not having any Hilton shares and criticizing from the outside. Or swap Williams for Lindsay. Other options would’ve worked but if this week 1 decision somehow has playoff I will surely try to bring it up. RGs really had a average week expect for Mahomes (because why not pick up where he left off) and a outstanding week 1 for McCaffrey. Same goes for Hillbillies who honestly had a fine or good week expect of Ekler who was outstanding as well. A lot things could’ve impacted this match and hopefully I see many more of these types of games in weeks to come. Week 2 Power Rankings1) River Gypsies (1-0) - 2nd highest score. Zek is back no issues expected and gained another WR1 with Watkins. Helps RGs a ton. Love the RBs, Love the WRs, and Love the QB. Let’s see if he can keep it.
2) Mullynation (1-0) – 3rd lowest score… and you luckily played the worst score… Mixon could be hurt concerned a bit for Kerryon. But still have the other 2 top 4 RB and another awesome QB. I would expect this 3rd lowest score is a outlier but she has to beat RGs this week to reclaim the top spot. 3) Troll Hunters (1-0) – No big changes, with a win and 3rd best score week 1. 4) 302 Cadets (1-0) – Carson/Mack were much better than I expected. And no delay with Bell coming back week 1. However, Hill is out for weeks and his new WR are waiver picks… we’ll see what Hollywood Brown and move Cadets up the ranks. 5) Indian Outlaws (0-1) – Um what happened to these RBs… some might have expected it, others didn’t. If this continues one more week IO will fall off their horse and it won’t be a fun landing… 6) Northside Angels (0-1) – Nervous about Conner, Michel, and Freeman. My initial bro HH is out for weeks… and lowest score of week 1 by 20, yeah you lost a lot of my confidence 7) Big Ass Cup O’ Franzia (1-0) – Ingram took his RB1 role seriously and could be a very solid RB2 with RB1 upside week to week. Gurley however offset this with mediocre performance. However, moves up a spot with a solid win and potential consistent performance. 8) Twin City Tree Cats (0-1) – Nervous about Fournette, Drake, Kirk as starting options. Josh Jacobs/Thielen are solid #2 or low #1 with OBJ the only true #1 player. Gotta see these guys take over as weekly top 10 players to move up this rankings. 9) Big City Hillbillies (0-1) – Long road for BCH to move up this list but it starts Week 1 with the 2nd highest score. Nervous about long term starting RB role for Williams/Ekeler and Gordon could lose a lot of target to AB (could) and Colemon is now out for weeks. Might be a roller coaster but I do see the BCH moving up at least for the beginning of the season. 10) Vicious Veg-Heads (0-1) - RBs were issue for VVs week 1 as expected and not having his other WR1 made it a real up hill climb… 2nd worst score and his starting RBs week 2 appear to be waiver wire picks ups… If Brown is back and the Redskins dominate giving Thompson/Peterson a lot of points would be the first step for VVs to move up this list.
