Week 1 Fantasy Football

What a start 115.4 points and 0-1.

That's right, I lost while scoring 115 points. Unfortunately, the team I went up against had the Pittsburgh defense and since Cleveland is continually fighting with Detroit for last place supremacy in the world of football I had to overcome a 42 point performance with the Defense.

7 pts against
221 total yards against
2 Int
4 Fumble Recoveries
6 sacks

Our league does score defenses a little higher than most leagues do (it is 11 guys rolled into one scoring category afterall) but 42 was way too much. The average starting defense scored 21 points in our league. I lost by 28. His went off for 45, mine for only 13 (Jacksonville). That's the difference in the game right there.

143.55 to 115.4 was the final score. Those that are regalar fantasy football guys that that 143.55 is pretty dang high for fantasy football. If you score 115 on a regular basis you are going to win your games more often than not.

His top 3 scorers this week were Kitna (30.15), Addai (27.1), and Pittsburgh Defense (42) to total 99.25 points

My top 3 were Peyton (32.4), Adrian Peterson (27.6), and Torry Holt (13.3) totaling 73.3

As for all those "stud rbs" I should have taken over Peyton Manning here is there breakdown:

Frank Gore - 13.6 (season totals 13.6)
Shaun Alexander - 23.2 (season total 23.2)
Rudi Johnson - 8.6 (season total 8.6)
Willie Parker - 15.8 (season total 15.8)

Remember LT, S-Jax, LJ, and Addai were the first 4 taken, I took Peyton at 5. Those 4 guys above went right after Peyton.

So after week 1 I am 0-1. But still confident in my team's ability to score points and not face 140+ points every week.
