Week 1 - Mitch's Comeback

 

 

 


Much like my comeback to beat the first place champ this week in a matchup that turned out to not be close, Mitch trubisky came back in the fourth quarter to beat the Detroit Lions. With the help of a dropped pass from Deandre Swift the Bears were able to pull out a W in a game they should have definitely lost. The Lions suck, much like the returning champ To Khalil a Mackingbird

I have a feeling this will be the last time a manager starts a defense against Aaron Rodgers the the Packers. Yikes, in all fairness, it wouldn't have mattered. It's nice to receive a 100 dollar bet to start the season off along with a W and a Christian Mcaffrey jersey on the way from China. 







 Probably the best scene from South Park's last season from the episode Band in China







I really didn't want to make this video and rub it in. But, the people needed it after a week 1 beat down against the defending Champ. I won't say this is my best work but I will say it is my most rewarding...Sorry Michael.

 Let's move on to this week's categories..


Longest Receiving TD:


DK Metcalf - 38 Yards - The Other Guys



“He’s one of the best receivers in the game,” Wilson told PFT by phone after Sunday’s 38-point outburst against the Falcons. “He’s like a 10-year veteran Pro Bowler.”



A close second was Adam Thielen who caught a 37 yard TD reception... game of inches.







Fun Fact: Iriwin had Adam Thielen..... and also had Raheem Mostert who was on his bench for a 75 yard TD reception that did not count since he was on the bench... Not only that, but Mostert clocked in at 22.73 MPH on his TD catch which was the fastest clocked time a player ran in game since 2018





David owes you a drink.





Team that beats opponent by smallest margin of victory:


The Flemchise 132.95 defeats DraftStoshAllen.com 132.7






Unless there is some wild stat correction after I post this, we had one of the wildest finishes in week 1 history. The Flemchise edges out DraftStoshAllen.com who had Saquon going on Monday night who finished with 6 rushing yards.



And yes! Right before I published this there was a stat correction..







Looks like flem still pulled away by roughly .25 points.. phew 


 A truly incredible MNF game, which resulted in the Steelers defense dominating the line of scrimmage allowing no room for Saquon to make anything happen. Only time he got any points was on a wheel route where he had to jump over 16 Steelers defenders.

A tough break for Stosh, who I know did about 20 more minutes of research this year that last. Paul might want to scratch his head and wonder why he sat some of his players who outperformed this week. But, Flemming had a great draft as usual and love to see a finish like this. No Golloday, No Problem. 



GG's.




Highest Score:


The Other Guys  - 170.2

With a big opening week for this team, winning both the longest receiving TD and highest score.

 I expect big things from this team in 2020.

Keeping Henry and being able to retain a guy like DK Metcalf is huge. 


Drafting the rookie RB in KC and Garbage time Matt Ryan should prove dividends.







Davante Adams will not put up 40 points each week.


But, should be a good enough floor in the NFC North to keep this manager as a contender each week.








Week 2 Categories:

Team with most rush yards (all RB Starters including flex) 

Team  who has the most points scored against them


 

Excited for Week 2 ?
