Week 2: Wham, Bam, Thank You Cam

With the lack of pre-season games and a shortened training camp, I was told some players will inevitably get injured in the early part of the season. What I wasn’t told was that EVERY player was going to get injured in the early part of the season. CMC, Saquon, Michael Thomas, Davante Adams, Julio Jones, Chris Godwin, LeVeon Bell. If I had read you that list before the season you would have thought I was reading you some messed up ADP from 2019. If you survived Week 2 congratulations. If you’re starting RB’s are now Devonta Freeman and Mike Davis, well…good luck.

Games of the Week

Keeper League

• Loser City (189.9) v. The Injury Report (114.6)

The Cowboys’ miraculous comeback against the Falcons on Sunday must have been extra fun for Odhran. Dak brought his team back from down 20 by rushing for three touchdowns and throwing for 450 yards. Actually, after a closer look, all of Sunday must have been pretty fun for Odhran as half his team had over 20 points, 90% had double-digits, and only one player had less than 10.

Dynasty League

• RIP Platt and Tautkus (225.9) v. Team DORMANator (187.9)

It was one of those pesky 40+ point weeks from Aaron Jones again. Every once in a blue moon Aaron Jones will rip the life out of your opponent. With three total touchdowns, 168 yards on the ground, and 68 through the air, Aaron Jones was untouchable this week. Sadly for Dorman, he appears on the wrong side of a second straight game of the week (wait for it…).

Dictator League

• Team MCampbell23 (204.4) v. Team Dormansmash (116.34)

Sometimes it is just your week. In week 2, Matt C. had a double dose of dominance over Dorman in Dynasty and Dictator. The league settings in Dictator turned Darren Waller’s great week into a goddamn supernova. But the destruction didn’t just stop with the starting line-up, every player on Matt C.’s bench scored in the double digits as well. Also, sometimes it is just not your week and you appear in three straight games of the week on the losing side.

Trivia:

• This QB threw the longest pass (measured by distance the ball traveled in the air) in week 2. Bonus points: who caught the pass? Bonus points 2: how long was it (within 1 yard).
