Hammer of the Gods vs Aaron Rodgers Says F You
On paper this one should go towards the pre-season favorite Hammer of the Grunge. A funny thing happened on the way to week three. Adrian Peterson is nursing an injury. So is Randy Moss. Matt Forte is in the midst of a sophomore slump ala Anthony Thomas. Peyton Manning and Tony Gonzo are right where you think they should be. That's got to be nice to have.
Aaron Rodgers is leading Aaron Rodgers Says F You
with a chance to play against a team worse than the Lions. The Rams should give Aaron Rodgers a chance to match Peyton Manning's numbers. Big Brandon Jacobs and MJD are nice guys to have in your backfield. I'm going against the pre-season favorite in this one. Aaron Rodgers says F You over the Grungemeister.
Ditka's Demons vs The Color Purple
Ditka is going with the ol' Rope-a-dope strategy today. He doesn't need to start healthy players. He can win when starting Westbrook who doesn't look to be playing today. It's a tricky strategy that just might work.
I like Jerricho Cotchery. He sounds like the kind of WR who will rip the ball out of the air, shove it in your face, and high step on the way to the end zone. I still don't think Mark Sanchez is the guy, but he'll get the ball to Cotchery today. The Color Purple has enough big play guys to make it a win today.
Wayne Fontes Int'l Fan Club vs Titletown of Lambeau
Wayne Fontes is shelving the Run N Shoot this week and going with Chavez's patented double TE formation. After Dallas Clark's performance last week, it might be the right move. Wayne Fontes also scored the most points in the league last week. Take that RB whores!
Titletown will hope that Fred Jackson can continue to score points. He'll score well, but he's no match for the Chavez double TE formation.
Wayne Fontes will score big again this week.
Great Grabowskis vs Valhalland Drive
Look at those WRs on Valhalland Drive! Larry Fitzgerald and Santonio Holmes will make up the difference for the massive points that Calvin Johnson will put up for the Grabowskis. They may be great, but they're up against too much this week. Ryan Grant for Valhalland Drive is going up against the Rams. Did I mention that they're worse than the Lions. This is the same Lions team that can lose their 20th straight game. The Lions could beat the Rams right now. They'll get their chance soon enough. Victory shall be had!!! Wait... what was I talking about...
Oh yeah, Grabowskis vs Valhalland.Valhalland gives Grabowskis another loss this week.
Motown Maulers vs. 4 Star Sweetness
The rebuilding continues for the Maulers. The championship ring still sparkles, but it's kind of like the Piston's NBA championship win a couple of years ago. Did that really happen? Yup. The Maulers won the championship. Since the Vince Young move, the team hasn't been the same.
Moreno, Manningham, and Marshall are a step in the right direction, but they won't be enough. 4 Star Sweetness looks tough this year. Gore, Sproles, Ocho, Wayne, and Matt Ryan could put up hugh numbers this week.
4 Star Sweetness beats the Maulers.
Game of the Week
1957 and Waiting vs Hurricane Lombardi
Brees v Warner. Hugh numbers should be had here. Chris Johnson and Michael Turner should also put up good numbers. I'd expect to see Turner outscore Johnson here. Good thing for '57 is that he has both of them. Lombardi will counter with the patented Chavez double TE formation. Owens and Carlson could match the numbers put up by Turner and Johnson. Carlson has Seneca Wallace throwing the ball to him. Laugh if you will, but Wallace was the guy throwing the ball to Carlson for most of last year. He'll put up good numbers again.
This will end up being a close game that could get decided by a WR who got bounced around the waiver wire last year: Patrick Crayton. Are you feeling lucky punk? Puddy will be watching the game on Monday night hoping for a big game from Crayton. It could happen...
I'll take 1957 over Lombardi unless Corey Boyd makes a surprise appearance. Then I might change my mind.
