Week 2: Wash-up

Week 2, man, feels so long ago already. I've been scouring the Week 3 action but it's time to go back and see what happened.

Somewhat uncannily the league win-loss column looks remarkably like the NFL win-loss column. Breesus stands out with 2-0, Marcy keeps the rear at 0-2 and everyone else is kickin' it at 1-1.

Lights (74.5) def Farnsworths (74.1)

Ouch! 0.4 points is no way to lose a football game. Especially after smartly compensating for AP being suspended and putting West in the starting RB slot. Well played! Too bad Martin and Green and Cameron all dropped donuts. Three zeros and STILL nearly beat the Lighties. But the Lighties had their own issues with terrible numbers: thank Breesus for Peyton Manning under centre: the rock. The first round draft pick certainly earned his spot.

Breesus (114) def The General (91)

The Championship Game rematch looked remarkable like the Championship Game, if I recall correctly. Close on paper and then Breesus did his magic thing and three days later emerged with a big win. Picking a RB that is interested in scoring points is hard, only 1 of the Generals 3 bothered trying.

Zim (104) def Marcy (84)

Big 200-yard game from Jordy Nelson and solid performance from Foles saw Zim run away with this one. Jimmy Graham excelled, as usual, for Marcy but big changes are on the cards for that team to rise up.

Agent P (95) def Bradybrothers (86)

The Hurns experiment lasted one week and after a miserable 1.4 points the rookie WR has been delisted by BB. Bernard and Foster put up good numbers but the rest coasted. Maybe speak to Zim about training methods to whip those players into shape? Then again, given last years results, maybe not. Agent P had a team full of solid performances with no standouts whatsoever. Team work can be over-rated in the age of the superstar.

Endless (90) def Doof (78)

That being said, sometimes having 1 or 2 superstars is all it takes to win, and Endless can thank Bryant for showing up in Week 2 and Sproles for starting 2014 like a boss. Apart from Rodgers, Doof's team looks like a desert, miles and miles of nothing. Megatron turned in a bad game, the only one he's allowed this year.
