Week 1 (Kyle vs. Steve)
Drinkin nDrivin With Braylon vs. In a Van Down by the Rivers
QB – Campbell and Collins (Kyle) vs. Rivers and Brees (Steve)
I don’t really feel like I need to do a write up here. There really is no comparison. Campbell has never really been all that good. Although, as I have pointed out before, this is the first time he has had the same team and offensive coordinator in back to back years. That being said, I want to see it before I believe it. As for Collins, I am hearing some excitement about Collins being able to produce good numbers this year in Indy. I simply don’t understand this. Collins was not good last year at 41, why would he be better at 42 on a new team? Steve has some nasty QBs. Watching the game last night I felt like Rodgers outplayed Brees. Believe it or not, Brees scored 5 more points than Rodgers in week 1. Rivers seems primed for a big week as well against the Vikings. Looks like trouble for Kyle. Kyle 10 – Steve 52
RB – Johnson, Greene, Sims-Welker (flex wr) (Kyle) vs. Forte, Moreno, Woodhead (steve)
It begins so promising for Kyle with the news that Chris Johnson will be in the fold for week 1. We then see that his next best RB is Shonn Greene (for the record who gives their kid the name Shawn and spells it Shonn? Or is it pronounced Shown? Either way it is misspelled and now the guy has to spell his first name to people constantly. Horrible parenting move.) I never have liked Greene (oh, snap.. yeah I’m helping Ali bring it back… he spells his last name wrong too!!!) and I never will like Greene. I kind of like Sims-Welker this year, but in game one of the year with a new offense I am not buying. I forgot to mention that he may have the real good CB who used to be on the Raiders lined up against him (I can’t spell his name and since I just ranted about spelling I’m not going to try.) I think Forte is playing Sunday, I could look it up but I’m lazy. If he does play he won’t keep the Bears close to the Falcons but he should rack up some fantasy points. Moreno stinks. Woodhead is a wildcard here but I’m not expecting great things. Kyle 25 – Steve 22
WR - Jackson, Jennings, Ward (Kyle) vs. Lloyd, Colston, Ocho (steve)
Jennings had some very nice plays while compiling 22 points Thursday. I expect about the same from Jackson. I have no idea what to expect from Hines Ward. I get the feeling that he is done, and since it appears I was right about Manning (yeah, I said all that stuff before the Manning news came out today) maybe I should quit writing and head to the casino. I feel like Colston should give up all 12 of his fantasy points for that fumble on the first drive of the game. Lloyd (another Illini) may struggle against a sneaky good Raider defense. Ocho almost got cut as I ranted about yesterday, so he will stink. I see it as Kyle 46 – Steve 25
Other – Kasey kicked in a solid 10 points while the Packers D only got 5. Steve has Gates on the roster so he gets the advantage here. Kyle 26 – Steve 35
Kyle 107 – Steve 134
