As you can see I blew him out 112-78. Next week is going to be tougher though as I’m going to be going against my friend Paul AKA “Harvin’s Hip”. He’s favored to win this matchup 112-110. Hey I’ve got a chance. Take a look at this matchup.

I’m a little concerned about Brady’s lackluster effort but I’ve decided to give him another chance against the Jets in Week 2. I was going to start Andrew Luck, but then I got this sinking feeling that if I did, Brady would all of a sudden put up 40+ points, so I will instead keep Brady in. I also was thinking about putting De’Angelo Williams in instead of Frank Gore, but I think that he can put up more fantasy points going against a tough Seahawks defense than Williams can going against a soft Buffalo one because hey you never know. I think in fantasy that if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, and I haven’t gotten burned yet. I also don’t think Peyton Manning will throw for 7 touchdowns again like last week. Just a feeling.

Thanks for continuing to follow my fantasy story. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Tomorrow I will post my NFL picks, Friday my college football ones…with a special suprise on Saturday.

Stay classy everyone!

HOHOHO!
