This play might have been the one everyone's talking about from yesterday's Cowboys-Giants game, but it was actually the last real Dez catch that made garnered the most attention in our league. In a crazy nailbiter, Mike and Kenny were tied going into the last couple of minutes of the Giants-Cowboys game. Kenny had Miles Austin and Marty B going while Mike had Dez Bryant. Kenny briefly took the league by 1.5 on a Miles Austin catch but the Cowboys would get one more drive and on that drive Dez Bryant got Mike a game winning catch to put him one point. Miles Austin JUST MISSED a catch on the second to last play of the game, but it happened again. Kenny got screwed over in a Giants/Cowboys game and Miles Austin was involved. Last year, Kenny lost his playoff game against Leland because of the Romo to Miles debacle and also a Dan Bailey missed field goal. Kenny has at least one of these kind of monumental disaster games once a year, and here's this year's. Huge, deflating crushing blow and just another mind numbing loss to "add to the list" so to speak. Here are the Week 8 Results.
Richard Head (4-4) 74.5
Breaking Bybee (3-5) 73.5
I think this nudges out the Rod Streater led Dad Comeback in week 1 against Ryan and match of the year, only because it came down to one game where both guys had one player going on the same team on the last drive of the game. The tension was surreal. Let me preface to say there was a lot of stuff that happened before Sunday and during Sunday that led to Mike's 1 pt win. Here's a look
Kenny Trades Mike Stevan Ridley and Brandon Lloyd for Steve Smith- This was HUGE to say the least. It's rare to make a trade with your opponent of the week, but clearly Kenny was overlooking that. Mike lost MJD and needed RB help big time with only Michael Bush as a relevant backup. Had Kenny not gifted Mike Ridley, Kenny wins this with ease because Michael Bush had 0 points.
Kenny Doesn't Use Steve Smith- So Kenny trades for Steve Smith but doesn't plan on using him. Totally Understandable because of his inconsistency and the matchup was against the Bears, but it totally renders this trade useless this week. All it did was help Mike. If Kenny was not going to use Steve Smith this week, he should've waited to trade for him next week. Big oversight that Kenny admitted to, but in the heat of the moment and with the matchup against Posey on paper, Kenny didn't think it would have a impact on the game. If he used Steve Smith over James Jones, Kenny wins.
Mike Doesn't Use Brandon Lloyd- On the flipside, Mike trades for Lloyd and Ridley, and doesn't use Lloyd. Don't get me wrong, Lloyd hasn't been all world this season, but with Tom Brady as his QB, you gotta play him, especially over Brian Hartline. Mike didn't use him because he was listed as questionable. That's the Patriots MO though..they list EVERYONE on their injury report. If Mike used Lloyd, it wouldn't have come down to Dez vs Miles.
Miles Austin to the 1 yard line- This was so crucial, Miles Austin catches a pass all the way to the 1 yard line that sets up a TD for someone else. Miles scores game over.
This was an ugly game all around. For Mike outside of Stevan Ridley, no one was really good. Aaron Rodgers was average against a great matchup against the Jags and only had 13 points. For Kenny Miles Austin and LeSean McCoy led the way in scoring but RGIII was held in check and Jamaal Charles had an ugggggggly game (4 rushing yards, 6 receiving yards). Just a bad heartbreaking loss for Kenny. He'll take on Drew next week while Mike gets to take on Matt and his scorching hot team.

To say a shitload of points were scored here would be an understatement. Albert gets the "honor" of having the 2nd highest score of the week. He just happened to run in to the guy who scored the highest. First of all, Fantasy Experts are just as worthless as weathermen. I don't get why people bother to listen to em. According to "experts" I'd be 8-0 and Leland's team would've scored 87 points. He almost scored 100 points OVER HIS PROJECTION. They don't mean shit folks...trust me. Leland's week started with that amazing Doug Martin performance and it never let up after that. Everyone but Brandon Gibson scored a TD. He had 5 20+ point plays (Matt Ryan, Gronk, Giants D, Martin, Julio Jones, with Gronk and Martin being 30+ point plays). This is without C.J. Spiller or Jordy Nelson by the way. Just amazing. Albert was no slouch either. Tom Brady FINALLY had a Bradyesque game (4 TD's, 28 points) while Demaryius Thomas, Trent Richardson, Willis McGahee and yes LAWRENCE TYNES all brought their A games with 19 or more points apiece. Even Jimmy Graham had 14 and Brandon Marshall 13.5. Shitty luck cost Albert this game. He would've beaten any other team by 20 or more points, but got beat by 20 himself. Leland will play Ryan next week and try to keep that winning streak going (up to 3), while Albert will try to stop the bleeding (3 game losing streak) against my Dad.

Dr. Wily's Robots (7-1) 105
Hoosier Daddy (5-3) 93.5
He's never gonna lose again is he? He has one five point loss and that's it. This was the week it was supposed to happen. Weak, because he had no Arian Foster or A.J. Green. Nope he keeps on rolling. Mike Williams filled in just nicely and Marshawn Lynch carried the RB game to get Matt to his 7-1 record. He's head and shoulders the above everyone. His guys weren't even that great but did enough to put away Ryan. Vick was mediocre again, as were Hakeem Nicks, Alfred Morris, and Vernon Davis, but it wouldn't matter. Matt is so deep, the rest of his team always hides the bad performances. Ryan only had two guys show up, Peyton Manning (300 yards and 3 more TD's) and Jason Witten who was AMAZING this week. A franchise record 18 catches for 167 yards. Ryan's RB's was pitiful, Bradshaw and Bush combined for 8.5 points and Antonio Brown and Fitzgerald were marginal as well. Even though it was a bad week, Ryan didn't get blown out of the building. Matt gets to face Mike Posey next week and Ryan take on Leland in what should be an interesting matchup as the winner could possibly move into 2nd place.
Game MVP
Mike Williams (Dr. Wily's Robots) 6 receptions, 68 yards, 1 TD, 15 points (Bye Week Fill In for A.J. Green)

The Bad Robofies (5-3) 83.5
Bigger Balls (4-4) 68.5
The Houdini of Fantasy Football strikes again. Low scoring as usual, Dad picks up win #5 as Mayra puts up a week low 68.5 points. This was not a pretty game at all. Mayra had Andre Johnson, Texans Defense, Anquan Boldin, and Owen Daniels on byes and it showed. Drew Brees was surpisingly disappointing with only 15 points. Only Drew Brees and Brandon Pettigrew scored 10 or more points. She'll no doubt bounce back and score 120+ against me, but this week it just wasn't in the cards. Dad's played Shonn Greene 3 straight weeks and he's slowly regressed each week but it looks like his job is finished. Demarco Murray may be ready to come back and it'll be just in time as Shonn Greene is on bye anyways. Darren Sproles led my Dad's team with 14.5 points . Noone stood out, but mostly everyone contributed evenly to the victory for Dad. Dad gets Albert next week and Mayra gets to kick me while I'm down next week.
Game MVP (Man honestly no one deserves this but...)
Darren Sproles (The Bad Robofies) 7 receptions, 56 yards, 1 TD, 14.5 points
What Happened??
Drew Brees (Bigger Balls) 213 passing yards, 2 passing TD's, 1 INT, 15 points (against Broncos)
Frank Gore (Bigger Balls) 55 rushing yards, 1 reception, 11 receiving yards, 6.5 points
Ryan Mathews (Bigger Balls) 95 rushing yards, 2 receptions, 2 receiving yards, 1 fumble lost, 8 points
