It's been quite some time since I've blogged. I've been severely slacking for years, and nothing I can say or do can make up for that. However, Dosh is 0-2 and has only scored 132 points through 2 weeks. And that's funny.
We only have 3 2-0 teams. All 3 were not at the draft. I'm going to have to request this behavior cease, as one of the most important parts of the draft is that everyone is drinking heavily and making bad decisions. You must have at least 6 Surfside in you at all times.
It's been competitive so far. A few teams have looked really good, but it's still very hard to get a read on this season. We've already lost Rodgers, Dobbins, and Chubb for the season. I would not be surprised to see even more injuries. It feels like everyone is already banged up. Could this be attributable to the lack of players playing in preseason? Maybe. But, it's just bad luck.
The most exciting thing, for my money, has been Geno Smiths.

Beef of the Week: QB Play
It's never been worse. These QBs stink. It's about finding out which is less stinky than the rest. Nobody can throw. Nobody can read a defense. People are out here sucking off Brock Purdy like he's the next coming of Montana.
Justin Fields is the worst of the bunch. I have been vocal to most of you about my dislike for the Bears "quarterback". He simply cannot throw. He cannot win. There's nothing redeeming about this loser. He's going to lead the Bears to back-to-back #1 picks. I'm just sad that it took people so long to see it. You had two years of evidence, and now after two more terrible games people are like "I think this guy might be bad". No shit. DJ Moore went from Sam Darnold/Baker Mayfield to this guy and he actually downgraded.
Where are the good QBs? Two of the top 3 2023 picks are injured. The other is already on load management. And they don't want to pay the RBs. SMH.
Power Rankings
I currently have zero clue who anyone has. So deal with these rankings as I see them.
14. Cash Me Out Wide (0-2) - It's week 3 and this guy is starting Chase Claypool and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.
13. Geno 911 (0-2) - This team is shocking after Josh Allen. What kind of list were you drafting from?
12. Chase Young Sweat (0-2) - For the love, change your team name. Fields, Drake London, Josh Jacobs. Yikes.
11. Team BG (1-1) - JT and Kupp hurt is not good. Hang in there.
10. Dueling Pylons (1-1) - An OK team that will need everyone to play at their best to be competitive.
9. The King's Crusaders (1-1) - An aging team at a lot of positions that I could see hurting. Russell Wilson at QB? See: Beef of the Week
8. Stanky Monkeys (2-0) - Off to a great start, but losing Chubb is a terrible blow. We'll see how this team evolves but having some of those backups + Mahomes will help.
7. Team Bartholomew (2-0) - Similar to Stanky Monkeys, doing well. I'm concerned about the depth here. Some good pieces. Could move up.
6. Street Pigeons (1-1) - Looks good on paper but hasn't really delivered yet. Already crying wolf about Joey Burrow before the matchup w DUPY this week. Not becoming.
5. Tree Party (1-1) - Some guys have overperformed so far, but the Aiyuk/Tyreek 1-2 looks really good. I'm less optimistic here, but I think you'll fight for a playoff spot.
4. Pork Chop Express (1-1) - Feels like there's a top 4 that could be in any order. Placing you here for now because you bitched about Brock Purdy all night and I had no idea you were starting him... and he got you a lot of points.
3. Coach Janky Spanky (1-1) - I think you've got a pretty solid team. If you can rely on Addison and Mostert, it makes your team very well rounded. I like what you've got going.
2. Tweeting in the Trenches (2-0) - If your waiver wire adds are good, this could be a very good team. Good to have TITTY back.
1. Philly Peppers (1-1) - This is what happens when the league comes together and drafts a strong team. The older WRs may not be sexy, but as long as they're healthy, they'll produce.
Week 3 Matchups
Pige v DUPY
King v BG
Bartholomew v Cash Me Out Wide
Tree Party v Stanky Monkeys
Janky Spanky v PCE
Geno 911 v Father West Virginia
TITTY v P.Peppers
Will try to blog more consistently. No promises. Good luck to everyone week 3!
