Week 1 Write-up

 

WEEK 1

All over, in the books.  That w/l column now officially says something and now you can enjoy having your hopes met or dashed.

First, may we remember last year and always know that week 1 does not always show what is going to happen for the rest of the season.  There's a lot of football left to play, and those that look good now may not stay that way and those that look bad may become stars.  Also, there will be a couple of great players that come from nowhere.  There always is.

This week was the week of the tight end absolutely, in the few games I watched TE's put up a ridiculous amount of points and had a disproportionate amount of TDs by far.  Can it stay that way?  Most would doubt it, but who knows?  Maybe Gronk taught the rest of the teams something about having a giant to catch passes.  According to Trey Wingo "NFL tight ends combined to score 22 receiving touchdowns in Week 1, the most touchdowns in a week by tight ends in the last 15 seasons."  So I hope you guys enjoyed it.

Also I figured for you 49ers fans, I'd drop my favorite picture of your coach:

POWER RANKINGS POST WEEK 1

RIVALRY OF THE WEEK:

Greenbowl Packers (V. Shishkin) versus Aztec Godzilla 2.0 (Andrew Gomez).

vs.

 Andrew dancing before finding out about his week 1.

This is a battle of the ages, one that has been known to man since man first begun to For Reals.  One that is never easy and is usually very important always.  And in this game, Valeriy came out on top.  He had help from his players as only his kicker and Odell Beckham JR scored under 10 points.  You wouldn't believe it by looking but, at one point Andrew's team did have the edge.  On Thursday Roethlisberger dropped 20 points and Heath Miller got 16 a solid showing for the first night.  Early Sunday Lacy had 17, a nice cushion.  But it all came crashing down when Monday came through.  First it was Matt Ryan throwing down (the field) for Val, then came the crushing blows of Carlos Hyde breaking up what once people had doubted.  The victory was sealed, and Val scored the most points of anyone in the league week 1.

So Val, enjoy this win.  Deandre this week has made his choice, he's getting bread.

Good luck week 2 guys.
