Thursday Night Overview/Week 5 Awards

 
Sometimes you just know you're due. When Devonta Freeman goes off for 31 points, there's just nothing you can do(of course it didn't help that the shitty ass Saints just totally gave up defensively when the game was basically over, letting Matt Ryan dump pass after pass to Freeman, then allowing him to just walk in for his 2nd TD, fuck you Saints). I'm due for my first loss, and what a way to start that than by having your chances dwindle before Sunday even begins. I'd love to win, but with a 31 point lead, along with Andrew Luck and probably Justin Forsett in tow, I'm pretty sure a loss looms on the horizon. That garbage the Falcons got, also helped Leland and screwed Kenny, as Matt Ryan didn't really have a great game outside of the garbage last couple of drives (he even fumbled on the last play of the game). The silver lining for Kenny though, is that Brandin Cooks continues to disappoint and only got 6 points for Leland. Eugene had Mark Ingram and Julio Jones going for him against Dad, and surprisingly Mark Ingram was the better of the two. His yardage sucked, but he managed to score two TD's and Julio Jones was "held to" 93 yards on 6 catches with no TD's. Kind of still disappointing considering how bad the Saints D had been. Dad spot started Roddy White and at first it seemed like White was primed for a MONSTER comeback game, when he scored a TD right away. Unfortunately that's all he did, but still as a bye week fill in, he exceeded expectations. Alex had his Saints guys going and though Brees was respectable (over 300 with a TD pass) C.J. Spiller was once again not. He's really not a startable running back as he doesn't nearly get enough work. Last but not least, Drew decided to take a chance on Willie Snead, and he wasn't great, but wasn't terrible either (55 yards, 4 receptions). He's still favored to beat Albert. Onto the Week 5 awards.

Wane McGarity Stud Of The Week
Doug Martin (Channel 4 News Team)
 
With Albert's season nearing impending doom, Doug Martin looked like the Doug Martin from Leland's championship team a few years ago. He absolutely KILLED the Jags and his 35 points helped Albert upset Ryan and keep his season alive.

Michael Wiley Dud Of The Week
Randall Cobb (BigBadBob)
 
When you lose by .14 points, you gotta get more than 3.80 from your best player on your roster. Cobb's worst game of the season, couldn't come at a worse time for Dad, who's also dealing with Marshawn Lynch injury problems. Cobb's performance help cost Dad a win.


No Drew Bennett Sneaky Surprise Award and Jay Cutler Bad Decision Awards (I'd give it to Alex, but he would've lost anyway had he replaced Eddie Royal in his lineup)
