With the playoffs next week, and so many people gearing up for that number 1 spot it must be nice to have a safe reliable QB in Drew Brees against the Atlanta Falcons in what should be a game full of points right??? Nope, not this time. Brees was HORRIBLE last night, 5 interceptions and ZERO TD passes. Yep, ZERO. Lucky for Mayra, picks only count for -1 points, but with the playoffs on the line, it was not a great start for Mayra. Marques Colston had some yardage, but disappeared in the 2nd half. Put it this way, Matt's kick Matt Bryant had only 4 points less than Brees and Colston Combined. Eeeesch. Now the saving grace for Mayra is that Matt's QB is not that much better (Ryan Fitzpatrick) and it's totally plausible for him to put up the same numbers, but Brees is her main guy, and she still has to face the rest of Matt's team (A.J. Green, Foster, Nicks, Morris/Lynch). We'll see if she can survive this brutal Thursday play. Here are everyone else's Thursday plays.
The Bad Robofies- Dad used Darren Sproles, and he was pretty non effective. He did have a TD Called back, but at the end of the day he only came up 6.5 points. Good for me, not great for Dad, but keep in mind, I think Matt Forte will suck and get less than that, and with Dad's receivers and Cam Newton, this is really survivable.
Breaking Bybee- Kenny could've used a Tony Gonzalez TD last week. Now when it's meaningless, he gets it. Unfortunately Roddy White sucked bad. 2.5 points in a PPR. Brutal, and really outside of his debut game for Kenny, Roddy White has been a major disappointment. Kenny still has a shot to play spoiler and ruin Leland's bye chances.
The Twin Killers-He made a shrewd move not using Julio Jones again this week, as he had a mediocre game, but Matt Ryan did as well. Matt Ryan only threw one TD pass (to Tony Gonzalez who Kenny has) and finished with 10 points. Pretty crazy that Brees finished with only 2 less points, though he threw 5 picks and no TD's. Not a great start in Leland's quest for that bye.
Channel 4 News Team- Lance Moore was a beast with 120+ receiving yards. It could've been MUCH better had he held on to the easiest TD catch in the world. Instead he dropped it but still had 15.5 points. Jimmy Graham had another quiet game and finished with only 7 points. Still 22.5 points is solid for Albert but definitely easy to erase for Drew's team.
Hoosier Daddy- Ryan had Garrett Hartley kick for him and he got him a bla 9 points. About what he was predicted to get.
