Stupid Vikings.

I know! I thought they might be a moderate force this year with Peterson back and their QB progressing. I couldn't believe it when I saw the final score this morning. Most of Week 1's games make it hard to predict Week 2 games. I'm glad I didn't do a survival league this year.

#153

I won ten bucks going against AP, so it's all good.

#154

Im gonna light TH up and go 2-0 thats the only prediction that matters

My offense is playing your defense and Andrew Luck is pissed. Pittsburgh is playing San Fran who looked legit this week but I wonder how they'll look against a competent team. Rams are playing Washington, nuff said there. I think you're gonna get wrecked son.

#156

Prediction- I will win a fairly close match against MP07 this week.

I think New England will have enough to overpower Buffalo's defense and put up a fair amount of points. Philadelphia-Dallas should be pretty tight but Dallas being without their best receiver will hold them back because their running game is underdeveloped. Kansas City v. Denver may hurt me if the Chiefs still aren't ready to content with the elites of the league.

MP also has skin in the game between Philly and Dallas. I think his Houston defense will shine brighter this week against Carolina, who only scored 20 points and only gained 263 yard against the Jaguars. In the words of Charles Barkley, "That's turrible." You would think that would put me behind the 8-ball but I have a hard time seeing Tampa Bay accomplish much even though New Orleans doesn't have a great defense.

Final score: G-Man wins by 5 or fewer

#157

My defense plays one of my offenses this week. So now I'm depending on Arizona to light it up against Chicago.

#158

DH, epi, gman, golden

I picked all of those randomly, except I asked my number 8 ball if MM would lose and it said 'it is certain'.

#159

Yeah, if Epi can't win this week with MM relying on one offense (the other offense and his defense cancel each other out), then there's something seriously wrong.

Yeah, it's called the fucking Vikings.

#161

Oh, and it appears I'm up against MM in both things.

And you don't have Kirby on your team this time.

Yes I do. He goes by "Mike Tolbert" and plays on offense.

#164

Another prediction:

DH v. TH
OFFENSE:
Baltimore has a soft opponent this week, which should help DH considerably. However, Chicago faces another solid defense in Arizona, so DH will rely heavily on Baltimore blowing Oakland out in order to put up good numbers. Unless Chicago shakes the sloppy play, DH is effectively handicapped to 1.5 offenses instead of 2. On the other side, TH has Indy, which is looking to rebound in a big way. They're more than capable of rebounding here because they're up against the Jets, who may struggle to keep their offense on the field against a better team. Pittsburgh is up against the 49ers, which is hard to predict. It depends on whether you think San Fran's takedown of the Vikings says more about the strengths of San Fran or the weaknesses of Minnesota. I see Pittsburgh putting up about the same number of points as last week.

Slight advantage to TH.

DEFENSE:
TH's Rams play the Redskins. Major plus for TH there. DH has the Jets who looked great last week but that's because they were playing the hapless Cleveland Browns. On top of it, DH's Jets defense takes on TH's Indy offense, so for every point scored by Indy for TH, DH is losing the same number of points. I say big advantage for TH.

OVERALL:
Baltimore needs to light Oakland up like Las Vegas at night in order for DH to win. Seeing as Flacco is overrated, I'm inclined to favor Turnip Head in Week 2.

PREDICTION:
Turnip Head by a touchdown or more.

#165

Classic Mistake.

#166

DharmaHelper wrote:Classic Mistake.

We'll see. I am, after all, no football expert. I'm extremely wary of my chances of winning after the Chiefs inability to close the deal last night.

#167

Epi lost. Even though two of MM's teams canceled each other out, MM had Arizona, who scored 48 points. I am stunned.

I also see that my match against MP boils down to the final score of the Dallas-Philly game. If Dallas wins by a touchdown, we tie. Any more, MP wins. Any less or is Dallas loses, I win.

#168

MP07 wins by three points. Golden needs Green Bay score a ton of points on Seattle tonight while holding Seattle to almost no points in tonight's game to win. DH v. TH will conclude on Monday night. If Indy can score 19 points tomorrow night, TH will win.

Arizona is clearly a force to be reckoned with. So is Cincinnati's defense.

Here's a link back to who has which teams.

#188

A lot of weeks left, but I'm happy with the way my teams have performed thus far.

#189

Predictions:

DH v. G-Man
Both of DH's offenses have tough opponents this week. My Eagles offense also plays his Jets defense. That doesn't inspire much confidence in my ability to cost him a lot of points and me gaining them at the same time. The Eagles are a wreck right now and I don't trust the Chiefs defense to do any better this week against Green Bay. New England might bail me out against the Jaguars but I'll need a 50+ point game from them to make up for the Eagles and the Chiefs. I just don't see that happening, so DH gets the win.

Epi v. Golden
Epi's defense plays one of his offenses (Carolina v. New Orleans) so that leaves him dependent upon Minnesota to win the week for him. Golden has Green Bay against Kansas City (who just choked all over the Broncos, who aren't looking all that sharp on offense), the Giants against the Redskins (hard to predict the outcome there), and the Bills defense going up against Miami, who haven't shown any indications of being the offensive threat they were branded as in the pre-season. A lot is up in the air for Golden, but the fact that Epi is relying entirely on the Vikings means Golden should walk away the winner.

MP v. TH
Man, this one has toss-up written all over it. Both of them have two teams cancelling each other out. MP has his Houston D going against his Tampa offense. TH has his Pittsburgh offense against the St. Louis D. That means it boils down to whoever scores more points on their remaining offense. MP has Dallas, who parted ways with their best RB in the off-season and are now down their starting QB and their #1 WR. They're also taking on the Falcons who might actually be pretty good this year. TH has Indy, who plays Tennessee. Which Titans team shows up? If I had to pick a winner, I'd lean toward TH only because the Titans looked bad Week 2.

Leggy v. MM
Leggy's Detroit D plays her Denver offense, leaving her with Seattle to win the game for her. Seattle plays the inept Bears, so she might have a chance if the Seahawks get their crap together. MM has San Diego offense against Minnesota and the Arizona offense against the 49ers. Both of those are favorable for MM. His Cincy defense would have to get blown out by the Ravens to keep this one close. MM by a mile.

Finally seeing the error of your ways.

DH vs G-Man: Clausen at Seattle? Riiiight. Patriots vs the Jags on the other side? This is the week that DH loses.

Epi vs Golden: Epi is gonna need like a million points from the Vikings. Not happening.

MP vs TH: Indy puts up a forty burger against Tennessee. Dallas struggles to score a touchdown. Turnip wins.

Leggy vs MM: Total toss up. I'll take leggy.

But you have to keep in mind that Philly is playing the Jets and the Chiefs are playing the Packers. I'm pretty sure the Chiefs are going to cost me a lot more points than the Eagles score. New England should kill the Jags but they'll have to dig me out of a hole. DH will probably get enough combined points to edge me by a touchdown or more.

#195

Fools. I will go undefeated.

I think the Eagles are in a great position to succeed against the Jets. Their offense is better than Cleveland's and their O-Line is better than Indy's. I smell a big week for Sproles catching passes when the Jets are blitzing, and Jordan Mathews is gonna be in the slot so he won't be facing off against Revis or Cromartie. If Bradford gets his head in the game the Eagles can win.

Your Chiefs aren't gonna be great but Green Bay rarely puts up huge numbers when they don't have to, they're cool milking the clock with the run game and offensive discipline. 24 - 17 is my prediction for that game.

#197

I beat MP by 1 touchdown

#198

Turnip Head wrote:I beat MP by 1 touchdown

I was watching for the Indy and Dallas game scores all through the 1:00 games. It was tense! Tough break for you with Big Ben. Unless he's 100% next game, that injury is going to seriously limit the Steeler's offense.

I have to draft a bye-week replacement for New England next week. Now I have to decide whether I want to try to win or tank it to possibly get a better team in a later bye-week draft. We'll see how the rest of Week 3 turns out before I make that call.

#199

I'm suddenly feeling very confident about beating DH.
