delusions of grandeur Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Alright donkey fans, almost time for the Monday night showdown with 2 of the most impressive passing games in week 1... This of course means it should end up a 14-10 game. Seriously, Manning is going to pick this Falcons D apart, especially after losing Grimes, but I'm not sure there's a defense that can stop this Falcons passing attack either, as long as the pass-protection is good. Blitzing is futile against Manning, but that's exactly what the Broncos will need to do to stop the Falcons passing attack... Gonna be tough to get much done today. GO FALCONS!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Go Thomas & McGahee, score me some points. Denver D, stop slow Ryan & Julio I need to win this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm down by 11 with Julio going against Tony G in a .5PPR league. Come on Julio! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hitter Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 As a lifetime Denver fan (Elway started it), but a lifetime Atlanta resident, I'm so freakin' excited about this game. Will be sitting ringside with my two youngsters for the show tonight and can't wait!! I'm just thrilled that its not Tebow vs Turner a la last season. Manning, Willis, Decker, DThomas, Tamme vs Ryan, Turner, Roddy, Julio & Gonzo! Two great offenses...and two opportunistic defenses. Honestly, I'm just hoping for a shootout. That'd make for a great game in person and and even better one in fantasy circles. Good luck to both sides! Denver wins 44-37! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB49ers Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 down 5 with Ryan/Jones to go facing D. Thomas, hoping Manning targets Decker and Stokely and the TE only tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachharry Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) I'm up by 1 with Ryan/Julio vs. McGahee / Roddy. If Ryan and Julio repeat lasts week's performance I could be a contender for my league's weekly pot. If they do average and so does McGahee / Roddy I should be able to hang onto a win.

delusions of grandeur Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 Champ > julio Porter > roddy This spells Vom Doom for ryan. So sad. First off, I think it's more likely that Champ will be on Roddy, and last time they faced off in 2008, Roddy went 5 for 102. Falcons have also always handled Porter well. Roddy and Julio both had big games against the Saints in week 16 last year. Also, I don't think you guys have an answer for Tony G either.

lennykravitz2004 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Champ > julio Porter > roddy This spells Vom Doom for ryan. So sad. Care for a friendly wager on any/all of that? And I'm not talkin' "I bet that Roddy and Julio combine for less and 1000 yards tonight" either type of "wager". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delusions of grandeur Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 This. In champ we trust. Don't get me wrong, Champ is definitely the complete package (my brother's dog is actually named Champ. What kind of parents name their kids Champ and Boss anyway? Ah right, confident ones), but dude is 34 facing the best WR tandem in the league, and he had no luck shutting down Roddy the last time when he was 4 years younger. Honestly I'll be happy if our WRs just burn him as often as he shuts them down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt770 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm up 55 with Ryan and the Falcons D left to go, and the enemy has Peyton and Tamme. If I lose, I am never playing fantasy football again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 So glad that I have a win wrapped up so I don't need anything from Ryan tonight. Go Broncos! Atlanta is pretty tough to beat at home, but I think the Broncos can get it done. Prediction: Broncos - 27 Falcons - 23 Julio will end up with around 6-87 but no scores this time. Tony G and the Quizz are the two that will hit pay dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delusions of grandeur Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 It's come to my attention that I was misinformed about Champ covering Roddy in 2008. He actually didn't play that game. I still think that if they're smart, they'll cover Roddy with Champ, and hope that Porter with safety help can limit Julio... I just don't know that even Champ at this stage in his career can keep up with Julio, and think that Ryan/Roddy's rhythm is something he can more easily disrupt. I still think that the Broncos are gonna have to bring some pass rush, because if you let Ryan sit back there and make his reads, someone will always be open to throw to, whether that be Julio, Roddy, Tony G, Douglas or Quizz.

EW3 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I had a chance of winning even with Rodgers getting shut down, Forte getting injured and mostly everyone else getting shut down except Cruz and Graham... but then V.Davis had to grab a SECOND TD within the last 3 secs of the game last night. >_< 91 to 79, I have no one left and I'm against Julio Jones AND T.Gonzalez. I'm pretty much dead unless Broncos get a shut out somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckDuckGoose Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I want to embarass my opponent. I'm up 40 with Julio Jones & Turner. I hope they get 2 TD a piece. I thank Eli & Cruz for the big win this week. He has nobody left. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
