7th Weekend Matchups/Analysis

We are about 1/2 way thru the season...and after this weekends games I will give a report on how we all are doing with 6 more weeks to go and other analysis.

This weekends matchups: (don't forget to update your Roster)

Bombers vs Drew: The Bombers picked up B. Griese on waivers to plug in at QB since Favre is on bye. Also L. Tomlinson is on bye...so Bombers will have to hope his bench can pull him through. B. Jacobs is still favoring his ankle and will shares carries with Droughns and Ward. welker should continue his strong play against the bad Miami D....M. Barber faces the 2nd best rushing D in Minnesota....perhaps he'll catch more in this game. For Planet Drew, V. Young may not go this Sunday....he is questionable although if he played he should do ok. C. Johnson has a favorable matchup against the Jets D. A. Green faces a tough (#1) Titan D against the run. R. Bush should have a good game being the #1 guy in New Orleans.

Old Fart Vs Trucos: Fart had to pick up D. Brees from the wire to start this one game. A couple of his players are back from their byes, Gore and R. Wayne. Wayne should have a good game if the Colts/Jaguars game is a high scoring shootout. As of this writing Fart is still waiting to see who to start for the Patriots, Maroney or Faulk. For Trucos, Romo faces a bad Minnesota pass defense...expect good numbers for him and perhaps Crayton. Jones-Drew has stepped it up the last 2 weeks....unless the Jaguars have to play catchup against the Colts, he may get a TD and 100 yards. Boldin will be back this weekend....but if Rattay starts at QB, he won't get many points. A. Gates on bye this week

Wrecking Crew vs Neo: The Crew gets his Colt trio back this weekend. All 3, Manning, Harrison and Clark should get their points. Both Portis/Betts have been performing below expectations the last few weeks..although they do play a bad Cardinal D. T.J. Housemandzadeh is on a roll lately, scoring over 20 in every game except the 1st one....expect that to continue. Droughns has been a TD vulture. Neo just hopes his players perform up to expectations. Roethlisberger may have a good game...especially if Denver's CB Champ Bailey doesn't play. R. Johnson is still questionable for this week. E. James may have a tough time if opposing D's stack the line since Arizona may have to start Rattay at QB again. T. heap may not play again this Sunday.

Sasquatch vs Monsoon: Sasquatch gets Addai/Parker back, which I know he is thankful for since he won't have to start 2 of 3 of the bad Oakland Raider RB's. T. Jones had a decent yardage game last week, but still no TD's....he faces a bad Run D in the Bengals. His WR's did horrible last week scoring 6.5 points. Gonzalez had a breakout game last week with 27 points. Monsoon has talent....hard to believe he is 1-5. Letting Romo go in the trade seemed to not have worked in his favor. Since that trade, Romo has scored 79 points while his other 2 QB's have scored 22 (McNabb) and 25 (Kitna). All Monsoon needs is to have every player put it together. R. Williams had scored only single points the last few weeks and S. Alexander has scored worse every week...starting with 20 points in week 1 to 14 in week 2, all the way to 3 last week.

KRUSH vs QXOPA: Battle of the Capital Letter teams....and the top 2 teams in the league. The Krush hopes R. Brown can keep his momentum going....getting over 20 points the last 4 weeks. Also L. Johnson got back on track last week and he should do well against the Raiders. L. Coles could have a nice game..especially if the Jets have to play catch up against the Bengals potent WR's. B. Watson may not play this weekend. Krush needs a good game from everyone if they can compete against basically the same lineup QXOPA played last week which scored over 200 points.

Final Results - Week 6

Lets get to it....

Bombers 152 - Trucos 144.5. The Bombers did another improbable comeback. P. Burress and the Giants D combine for almost 40 points and he beats Trucos. Both teams are now 4-2. Burress has scored in everygame so far. L. Tomlinson gets his biggest total so far this year and so does W. Welker. Favre had an off game..but should get back on track after next weeks bye. Bombers need a QB next week. LT is on bye too. Trucos also got monster games from Jones-Drew and Ravens D, but it wasn't enough. Bombers get Drew next week and Trucos get Old Fart.

Old Fart 84.5 - Neo 76. A battle of low scoring teams....both teams players seem to be on vacation. They both only had 2 players score in double digits. Rivers puts up a stinker after getting 31 the previous week. C. Benson continues to disappoint. Bucs D was the difference for Fart....a waiver wire pickup. Both R. Johnson and T. Heap barely played and got 0 points for Neo. QB problems for Green Bay and St Louis led to his 3 WR's getting a total of 14 points.
Old Fart is 3-3 and Neo is 2-4. Neo gets Wrecking Crew next week.

Wrecking Crew 124.5 - Monsoon 59.5. The Crew gets an easy win since Monsson didn't update his roster....although it wouldn't have mattered since the Crew would have won regardless. Houshmandzadeh gets his biggest point total (31) and Crew gets a surprising 17 from R. Droughns. Monsoon plays Sasquatch next week. Crew is 3-3 and Monsoon is 1-5.

QXOPA 214.5 - Sasquatch 99. We all hate Jorge! Another monster game for Peterson and Brady....also Cooley gets his top point total so far (22.5) and Redskins D also do a good job. Sasquatch just didn't have enough fire power. Having all 3 Oakland RB's seems to be a bad move since we have no idea who will do what. D. Rhodes scored no points. T. Gonzalez gets over 20 points. QXOPA is 6-0 and Sasquatch is 1-5. QXOPA gets KRUSH next week.

KRUSH 177.5 - Drew 78 - KRUSH gets a bouceback game from Hasselbeck (30) and another from S. Smith (26) to beat Drew. KRUSH is now 5-1. Drew is 1-5.
