Week 1 Recap

A lot happened in the NFL this weekend.

Who wins offensive player of the week: Adrian Peterson or Drew Brees?

Ben Roethlisberger out-passed Brees, Romo, and Manning.

Baltimore's offense looks good. Their defense? Questionable. Kansas City looked feisty.

For everyone who thought Cincinnati would be better this year- ha! I don't think there was any doubt those were two of the worst teams in the AFC in that game.

Green Bay's offensive line sucks.

The Jets defense was good and Sanchez was solid. Following the Joe Flacco mold from last year. Houston, in typical Houston form, came out slow.

Carolina drafts a quarterback next year.

Mike Singletary doesn't need Michael Crabtree.

In the end, the Bengals, Bills, and Raiders are the Bengals, Bills, and Raiders.

Week 1 Ironies
Detroit is in 3rd place in the NFC North, by virtue of their 0-0 division record to Chicago's 0-1 record.
Mark Sanchez out-performed Peyton Manning in Fantasy Football.

Futility Watch:

18 losses
To Go: 8


OFF THE SCHNIDE
Scored their first offensive touchdown since November 17.

How I did:
I forgot to post my Week 1 predictions for you all, but here's a screen shot of my pick'em league.
