🏈KAREEM HUNT!!! Drafted 2 picks before I could take him. Derek pick of Hunt was the best pick in the draft for week 1. The rookie never fumbled one time in college, over 600 carries. But his first rushing attempt in the NFL was a fumble. But he came back like a future hall of famer and tore up the grid iron. Kareem Hunt scored 52 fantasy points and was by far the best player in week 1. 

🏈 What a great first week we had. Well great depending on who you ask. You ask Eric and he would say YES! But if we asked Brian, he might be thinking that Eric is so good at fantasy football that its even hard to score points on him. And Brandon could be thinking its just not his year already after he had his number one pick in the draft go down in David Johnson. He could be out for half the year if not longer. He also lost a key WR for the year in Allen Robinson. We will have to see how Brandon's team reacts in the coming weeks without there stud RB and one of his top WR.  Brandon is one of the luckiest people we have in this league but I have to say, week one has not been very lucky for him. Maybe week 2 be better. But real quick thought on Johnson getting hurt. The Cardinals are in a win now mode. This could mean Kerwynn Williams will step up or the possibility of the Cardinals doing a trade or adding a free agent RB for the season. I would pay close attention to see what happens in the coming days. 

 πŸˆWe had one of the closest match's in history in Todd vs Trevor with Todd taking the battle by a mear .6 points. But this win came at a cost. Todd lost Woodhead for a bit. Time table is not out yet but it would appear to be a hamstring problem and I am guessing he be back in 2-4 weeks. 

🏈 We had 2 matches come down to the final game on MNF. One of them was JR vs Nathan. Jr was defenseless while he watched Nathan get closer and closer with Melvin Gordon and Demaryius Thomas. The projections were close all night but Nathan was not able pull off the win and lost by 3.1. The other match that came down to final game was Scott vs Chris. Chris had Keenen Allen and Scott had Broncos Def and Emanuel Sanders. The only hope Chris had was that he took a 3 point lead into the final game. But with Scott's defense still yet to play. I knew my first week 1 win would have to wait for another year. Bonus note: Scott has averaged 155.1 the last 3 years in week one while Chris has averaged 150.3..... Well Scott won 155.0 to 151.8.... I would say they were right in line with there week 1 averages.

🏈 Congrats to Matt on being the first team to get to 100 fantasy points on the year. At one point yesterday Matt had the lowest projected team but with the help of Matt Stafford and Aaron Hopper, Matt found himself rocketing to 100 points faster then anyone else. 

🏈 We have 2 games with in the game this year. One of them is the Eliminator Challenge and also the $25 High Score for the Week Challenge. You can keep track of both of these on my league manager note on the home screen of our fantasy league. This week one winner and the $25 goes to Eric who was only one to score over 200 points. Congrats Eric. The week 1 eliminator was Brian who barely got over the 100 mark. Crazy coincidence that they just happen to be playing each other. But in Brian's small defense, he did not have his stud RB Ajayi playing. Not that he would of got the win if he was playing but he might of not been the worst team in week one if he was playing.
