Week 2 Pros and Cons


Sunday's Pros

Passing Pros
Peyton Manning:
300 yards is a great day at the office. What is 400 yards? CRAZY.
Manning had his way with the Texans DF and dropped 400 and 3 TDs...how can you not love this guy and his laser-rocket arm?

Eli Manning:
Forget the 371 yards and 3 TDs, the fact that I (and everyone I have talked to) wrote this team off by the 4th Qtr and Manning led his team back. There is some crazy DNA in this family....if I could bottle that stuff....ewww.

Notables:
Brett Favre- 3 TDs with 340 yards. Too bad he didn't leave GB and go to a contender in Chicago!
Rex Grossman- 289 yards, and 4 TDs. I don't like my emotions toyed(sp) with like this.
Chris Simms- Brilliant!! Sorry, I couldn't help myself!

Rushing Pros
Rudi Johnson- I have this guy in my TD only league, and he does nothing but put up #s. He helped me drop a 45-11 point beatdown on my wife! YES! 145 yards and 2 TDs for the second week in a row....keep that up!

SD RBs- LT2 got his two TDs and 71 yards, and then Michael Turner came in and racked up 138 yards. How's that TEN run defense?? Maybe they'll make Ronnie Brown look like a stud next week.

Warrick Dunn- I really wanted to predict that Dunn would outdo last week's numbers, but I thought that would just be too much to expect. Well two yards later and he's dropped a week two 134 yards to go with his week one 132 yards. Without an Alstott or a Duckett to take carries this guy is going off big time!

Notables:
Frank Gore- Got it done again....did I mention I drafted him in both my leagues?
Michael Vick- RB? No. 127 rushing yards? Yes.

Receiving Pros
Joey Galloway- This guy is just OLD, but he got it done again today. 161 yards...nothing to sneeze at!

Donald Driver- 153 yards for Favre's main target. No TDs this week, but obviously Favre's go-to-guy.

Amani Toomer- Another old guy, another good day. This guy was the double threat with not only the yards, but also the TDs. (137/2)

Notables:
Antonio Bryant- I called it, Alex Smith's new security blanket dropped 131 yards and a TD.
Darrell Jackson- What hammy? Maybe the signing of Branch will push Jackson to perform. (127 yards with a TD)

Kicking Pros?
Sorry I just can't do it, but a big shout out to Ackers for trying to beat up the Giants.....moron.

Sunday's Cons

Passing Con
Lot's of nominees today:
JP Losman- 83 yards and a TD
Michael Vick- 92 yards a TD and an INT
But their teams won, so the award goes to:
Oakland's Andrew Walter- 162 yards, 0 TDs, 3 INTs....just when you thought it couldn't get any worse for the Raiders...yuck.

Rushing Con
Runners-up:
Ahman Green- 42 yards and a fumble. So much for last week.
Cadillac Williams- 37 yards. The wheels are starting to fall off!
Winner:
Detriot's Kevin Jones- Yes it was against the toughest DF, but when are we going to stop giving this guy 2nd chances to burn us fantasy owners? 44 yards and 2 fumbles...let me know when we can officially call this guy a bust...again!

Receiving Con
Nominees:
TO- Bledsoe was back on his game this week, but TO only had 3 Rec and 19 yards and a broken finger to show for it....thanks a lot!
Tony Gonzalez- Who said the injury to Green was actually going to help Gonzo? Some idiot on the NFLN. 2 rec, 7 yards....ungood.
The Winner:
Brandon Lloyd- I was big on this guy in SF and looked like a big dummy. Now he's in WAS with a bad QB. 1 rec, 6 yards....maybe he should have stayed in SF.

OK, since you want to play word games, tell me where the flashes are? You listed Simms under NOTABLE. Hmmm, let's see: 6 INT's in two games, "led" the team to 3 pts total in those games? That backup in Oakland you call a PASSING CON at least has led his team to 6 points! I guess the A. Brooks era is already over. Al Davis needs to sell this team. Randy Moss isn't even willing to take a hit to catch a ball and Joey Porter sits on the sidelines. Coach Shell better get control of this team right now or they will continue to be a side show in the NFL.

Notable was sarcasm AG!
I thought you knew me.

I mentioned a flash in my comment in response to your comment.
Do I think he's a good QB? ABSOLUTELY NOT!
But he has had good drives, and even a good game or two.
