BIFL - Week 2 Review A

It's official: Soutendijk is at the top of the Biffle rankings, and my world has come crashing down. Let's find out how this atrocity has come to pass:

Alligator Fuckhouse (83) defeats Charm City Kung Fu Rodents (71)
OK, maybe it's not as bad as we think. Souts was not actually very dominant this week (as he admittedly was against me last week), he just had a decent day against an opponent who couldn't get it going. For the second week in a row, Freddie Jackson (18 pts) told Steve "You are my lady."

I become more and more curious as to what (if anything) is going to happen when Marshawn Lynch gets back. Jackson is clearly successful as a #1 back; I can't really imagine a team giving up on that. On the Chapter 4 finale of "Greek" that I watched last night, Max comes back from a month-long absence, ready to take things with Casey to the next level. But the time away has shown Casey that the feelings she has for Max, though strong, will never equal the magic she felt from Cappy. Forced to choose, Casey opts for Cappy, who shockingly rejects Casey (for her own good?). In the end, no one comes away happy. Is something similar in store for Lynch (Max), Jackson (Cappy), and the Bills (Casey)? I can't wait to find out.
What am I supposed to be writing about again? Oh yeah, fantasy football: Andre's team ate it this week, with only Turl Owens (14) reaching double figures. It had to be frustrating for Dre watching Eli Manning rack up 23 points on his bench in Sunday night's game, while starter Tony Romo settled for a measly 9. That difference would have won the game for the Rodents.

Cholish Chachfaces (132) defeat FUBAR (77)
I predicted a high-scoring, close match-up in this game. Well, it wasn't close at all, and only one team was high-scoring, so I guess that makes me about 25% correct. Drew Brees (24 pts) delivered his standard performance, but no one else on the FUBAR squad really came to play (at this point, Spence needs more than a 12-point day from Calvin Johnson for his team to be successful). Brian Westbrook, who I had projected to run wild on the Saints' D, instead got back into mid-season form by suffering a mild injury that limited his production (this time, a sprained ankle). Spence should be encouraged, though, by another strong performance from Darren Sproles (24), who will presumably step into the starting line-up next week.
The Chaches' 132 was not the highest score of the week, but it was arguably the most impressive as it was not built on a ridiculous 53-point day from one guy (as my 140-point day was). Great, balanced attack from Markus' squad, featuring Vincent Jackson (24), Marion Barber (23), Ben Roethlisberger (16), Nate Kaeding (14), and Owen Daniels (13). It seems like years now that fantasy talking heads have been hyping V-Jax as the next big thing, but after two solid weeks I wonder if maybe this is the year that Rivers-Jackson steps up into the combo position previously occupied by Cutler-Marshall and Brady-Moss.

Keep checking back: more re-caps (and, hopefully, Freddie Jackson videos) on the way.
