0-1

L 64 - 101, @MBOMBERS 

QB:  Played Peyton Manning over Joe Flacco.  Flacco went 350+ for 3 TDs and 1 INT. Peyton: 301, 1 and 1.  Had considered playing Flacco, thinking he might have a break out year. Was disappointed in my decision not to play him.  Asked a guy in the parking garage at work about it.  He said, "You gotta play your studs man."  Manning remains the starter.

Loss: 9 points.

RB:  Starters Brandon Jacobs and Ronnie Brown carried 26x for a dismal 89 yards and 0 TDs collectively.  They also had 5 catches between them for 27 yards, but they didn't catch any touchdowns and it didn't seem to mean much in the points column.  Again, my bench was better.  Julius Jones: 19 for 114 and 1.  

Loss: 13 points.

RB/W: On Friday I'd taken ESPN's advice and lowered my expectations for Tampa Bay's Cadillac Williams.  "He's part of a 3-headed running-back hydra this year," they warned.   I dropped him for the Jets' Leon Washington.  

LW: 14 for 60, + 4 catches for 25 yds, but no TDs. CW: 13 for 97 and 1.

Loss: 7 points.

WRs:  Played NYG's Steve Smith (6, 80, 0) alongside Antonio Bryant.  The latter was likely not 100% in week one, considering he caught 2 balls for 29 yards and now is benched week-two with a wrist injury.  Anquan Boldin played hurt too and did even worse (2, 19, 0).  

Should Have Played (SHP): Patrick Crayton, Dal:  4 for 135 and 1.  

Loss: 8 points.*

* I would have had 8 more points had I played Patrick Crayton and no other receivers.  This team would be better with blank spots in the roster.  This seems directly to mean I'm no good at fantasy football.  

D/ST:  Own: NYG D/ST.  3 better D's week one: Eagles (35 pts), Falcons (16), Seahawks (15).

ON THE BENCH WEEK 2:  Ronnie Brown, Anquan Boldin, Antonio Bryant, Ted Ginn, Jr., Joe Flacco, Joey Galloway, Steve Smith (NYG).
