Situation
Another week, more madness. MG3 gets a DUI which will bring a 2-4 game suspension sometime this season. Le'veon Bell becomes a Chief and once again screws over Steve two years after Steve took him as his 1st round pick the year he held out. More positive Covid tests which end up being not positive. It's just a big mess week to week this year. This week, there is just one question inquiring minds want to know? Will David finally get a win?
Intelligence
Dark Lord Commissioner vs The Tatooine Twin Suns
David has a real chance to turn this around this week. I am not pleased that it is going to be against me. Mattison gets his chance to shine without Cook this week. MG3 isn't practicing which could mean the team is getting ready to be pro-active with the suspension for the DUI. So David gets one stud RB this week and another viable RB option just in time to make me suffer. The Jets couldn't stop me from catching a TD, so I expect Parker to have a very nice day. Mandrews will always ball out. AJ Brown is the alpha for Tannehill who continues to play at an elite level.
I do have some things going my way. Adams does return which is always a nice confidence booster. Kyler should own the Dallas D. 40 points is not too extreme as a ceiling for Kyler this week. Freeman has been getting volume and has looked decent. I am going to need Edmonds to continue to prove to the Cardinals coaching staff that he is the RB1 they need. The QB situation in San Francisco is making me a little nervous about my Kittle, but I just hope another week of healing can help Jimmy Garbage to get the ball to him. This game could come down to the defenses which is why I grabbed Washington D going up against a turnover prone Jones.
The Jedi Master vs Underestim8ed
It's byepocalpyse week for Linda. Justin is fortunate to face her without Kamara. I know Jacobs is also on bye, but Jacobs is no where near the Kamara tier. Dallas should lean more on Zeke now that the Red Rifle is QB1. Red Rifle in prime time. Eesh. Dallas better lean on Zeke. Beasley could be sneaky good in a high scoring game against the Chiefs secondary.
It's looking iffy if D.J. Chark-a-do-do-do will play this week. Minshew without Chark is like Matt Ryan without Julio. Not good. I wouldn't be surprised if Justin swaps in Fitzmagic this week. Likewise, I see Justin swapping in Claypool for Chark. Johnson has already been ruled out this week for the Steelers, so it's looking like another nice opportunity for Claypool. With the right roster adjustments, I like Justin to come away with the W this week.
It's On Like Donkey Kong vs Rolling Dunder
Speaking of byepocalypse, Tracy's entire bench is on bye! Julio looks like he will make his return this week which should actually help Ridley, since Matty Ice always plays better with his buddy Julio down by the river. Yes, Tracy. I did just use your team name from last year. Can Cooks repeat his blow up performance from last week. Usually not.
It's been a rough stretch for Dunder without MT, but if he can squeak out a win against Tracy, he is still primed to compete down the stretch when Thomas returns from the bye. In this matchup, Krug has all three of his RBs ready to deliver. I like Josh Stallion to bounce back this week in what should be a high scoring game. My hope is for a Dunder victory.
Check Out My Lightsaber vs Roodiculous
It's never good when you have to start Mark Ingram, since MG3 is most likely going to be suspended at least by the team for this week. At least Gary gets to use Cousins in the one game he has a chance to post good numbers against Atlanta. However, the Vikings could just run Mattison into the ground.
The fact is that Paul's lineup is clearly superior to Gary's. That doesn't always mean he will win, but the odds are in Paul's favor. Last week showed it's the Kareem Hunt show until Chubb returns. I took a flyer on D'Ernest last week, so was disappointed but not really shocked. I am not sure why Paul still has faith in starting Ertz. He's done nothing. Start Hock, man! What am I saying? I don't want Paul to win.
Mother Tucker vs EW Black
EW Black, aka FU Leveon, gets his final week of CEH being the Chief's bell cow. Not only does Bell's signing hurt CEH, it kills any value Darrel Williams had on his bench. Before the Bell news, I thought Steve had a chance to contend with the Sanders/CEH combo, but not now. At least David is keeping the bottom spot in Broads secured.
Injuries have taken their toll on Dana's team. She just can't get her WRs healthy. Dionte is out again this week. So much talent, but it seems Conner's injury woes have been transferred to Dionte. This game could be close IF Julio was healthy. He doesn't have an injury designation, so if he is finally fully healthy (doubtful) he could light it up against the Vikings secondary. Everything has to hit right for Dana to win this week.
Hays Blaze vs Just Beat Gary
The biggest poser in the League (Travis) gets a beat down this week! I just get the fizz looking at Jordan's roster. Jordan is so confident he will beat Travis, he has Mike Davis on his bench! Wow. Davis has been an absolute stud in CMC's absence. How can you bench him?!
Travis better have enjoyed his time at the top of the Bros Division. The decline is nigh! The question is whether he can stay in the hunt while Chubb is out. (pun intended) Rodgers has been lights out this year and he gets Adams back this week. Travis may want to discount double-check his lineup before game day.
