Week 1 zipped by fast and now it's on to week 2. It's still too early to panic for those who lost week 1, but an 0-2 start will have some teams getting a little worried. Here are the Week 2 matchups.
Arturo's Beans (1-0) vs
Rocket Man (1-0)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: I lead series 1-0
Last Matchup: I won 100-83.5 in Week 7 of the 2013 Season
Key Players
Arturo's Beans: Matthew Stafford (Panthers) Brandon Marshall (49ers) Randall Cobb (Jets) LeSean McCoy (Colts) Vernon Davis (Bears)
Rocket Man: Cam Newton (Lions) Julio Jones (Bengals) Jeremy Maclin (Colts) Shane Vereen (Vikings) DeMarco Murray (Titans)
Wild Cards
Arturo's Beans: Difficult matchups for Stafford, Joique Bell, and Brandon Marshall. WR #3 production. Chris Johnson reliable again?
Rocket Man: Cam Newton and Jordan Cameron's health. Victor Cruz rebound game.
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Eugene wins 97-95
I Say: Eugene wins. I'm not picking against myself because of any kind superstition this week. I just think my matchups suck and Eugene has the better team this particular week. I have three guys with terrible matchups and a wild card in Mike Evans, plus relying on Chris Johnson to be consistent, just not feeling confident this week. I hope I'm wrong of course.
Shock The Monkey (1-0) vs
NEXT!!!! (0-1)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Leland leads series 1-0
Last Matchup: Leland won 86.5-73.5 in Week 9 of the 2013 Season
Key Players
Shock The Monkey: Matt Ryan (Bengals) Mike Wallace (Bills) Montee Ball (Chiefs) Matt Forte (49ers)
NEXT!!!: Aaron Rodgers (Jets) Keenan Allen (Seahawks) Michael Floyd (Giants)
Wild Cards
Shock The Monkey: Michael Crabtree's health. Possiblity of No Gerhart. Donnie Avery production
NEXT!!: RB injuries. Difficult matchup for Keenan Allen. Cooks repeat performance. Kelce's playing time. Justin Hunter great matchup.
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Mark wins 90-88
I Say: Mark wins. It's already known Ben Tate is going to miss a couple of weeks at the very least but at least Leland has his handcuff to start for the time being. If Doug Martin misses though, Leland has no really viable backup on his bench and could be in trouble. I think Mark pulls this off and goes to 2-0 for the season.
The Bad Robofies (0-1) vs
Winter is Here (0-1)
No Matchup Stats
Key Players
The Bad Robofies: Tom Brady (Vikings) Torrey Smith (Bengals) Gio Bernard (Falcons) Alfred Morris (Jaguars) Jimmy Graham (Browns)
Winter is Here: Drew Brees (Browns) DeSean Jackson (Jaguars) Marshawn Lynch (Chargers) Reggie Bush (Panthers) Rob Gronkowski (Vikings)
Wild Cards
The Bad Robofies: Brady bounce back game? Production from Kendall Wright and Terrence Williams. Knowshon 1 game wonder?
Winter is Here: Bush difficult matchup. Colts receivers production. Ingram repeat performance.
Predictions
Yahoo says: Dad wins 97-92
I say: Dad wins. The battle of 0-1 teams, which means one team is guaranteed to be still be winless after week 2. It's funny that Dad has Brady and Alex has Gronk, while Dad has Graham and Alex has Brees. They'll all need each other to do good. I think this will be close, but I'll give the slight edge to Dad.
JTG's Warehouse (1-0) vs
Baby Face Bybee (0-1)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Kenny leads series 4-2
Last Matchup: Kenny beat Drew 131-99.5 in Week 3 of the 2013 Season
Key Players
JTG's Warehouse: Jay Cutler (49ers) Adrian Peterson (Patriots) Andre Ellington (Giants) Julius Thomas (Chiefs)
Baby Face Bybee: Colin Kaepernick (Bears) Calvin Johnson (Panthers) Demaryius Thomas (Chiefs) Vincent Jackson (Rams) Ryan Mathews (Seahawks) Frank Gore (Bears) Reggie Wayne (Eagles)
Wild Cards
JTG's Warehouse: Difficult matchup for Cutler. Andre Ellington 100%? WR consistency.
Baby Face Bybee: Semi Difficult matchup for Megatron. Kaep over Romo again. Difficult matchup for Ryan Mathews. Which V-Jax shows up?
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Kenny wins 101-94
I Say: Kenny wins. Another head to head matchup in the storied rivalry, I can't see Kenny losing two in a row with this team. I think he just has more players capable of huge games then Drew does. Kenny should extend his lead in this series to 5-2.
Channel 4 News Team (1-0) vs
Bigger Balls (1-0)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Mayra leads series 2-1
Last Matchup: Mayra beat Albert 117-80.5 in Week 4 of the 2013 Season
Key Players
Channel 4 News Team: Peyton Manning (Chiefs) A.J. Green (Falcons) Percy Harvin (Chargers) Cordarrelle Patterson (Patriots) Arian Foster (Raiders)
Bigger Balls: Andrew Luck (Eagles) Dez Bryant (Titans) Antonio Brown (Ravens) Le'Veon Bell (Ravens) Larry Fitzgerald (Giants)
Wild Cards
Channel 4 News Team: Fred Jackson start. Can Patterson and Harvin repeat week 1? Witten bounce back.
Bigger Balls: Fitzgerald Targets. Pierre Thomas usage.
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Albert wins 101-94
I Say: Albert wins, hard to pick against Mayra, but if last week was any indication, Albert's team has the chance to go off any week of the season. We'll see off the bat how Mayra's Steelers do on a short week, if they don't perform, it might be an easy week for Albert. Like Albert a lil more this week.
Dr. Light's Robots (0-1) vs
Hoosier Daddy (0-1)
Matchup Stats
All Time Record: Series tied 3-3
Last Matchup: Ryan Beat Matt 92-74.5 in Week 4 in the 2013
Key Players
Dr. Light's Robots: Robert Griffin III (Jaguars) Jordy Nelson (Jets) Andre Johnson (Raiders) Emmanuel Sanders (Chiefs) Jamaal Charles (Broncos)
Hoosier Daddy: Nick Foles (Colts) Alshon Jeffrey (49ers) Roddy White (Bengals) Pierre Garcon (Jaguars) Eddie Lacy (Jets) Rashad Jennings (Cardinals)
Wild Cards
Dr. Light's Robots: New Tight End in Larry Donnell. Bounce back games from RGIII, Jamaal Charles, and Zac Stacy.
Hoosier Daddy: Difficult matchup and hamstring injury for Jeffrey. Lacy back on track. Jeremy Hill more work?
Predictions
Yahoo Says: Matt wins 98-93
I Say: Matt wins. I give Matt the slight edge here, though honestly it's pretty much a toss up to me. Both have question marks, just think with Jeffrey facing the 49ers and dealing with a hamstring injury, Matt's got a slight better roster this week.
