UDBNFL Week 1 Review

4 Simms’ Unsullied (Jon Stinchcomb) 108.42 vs 7 TWB Gets Laid (Ted Washington’s Belly) 107.92

Summary: Simms’ Unsullied wins a tight game over TWB Gets Laid on the strength of Victor Cruz’ 29.8.

Game High Points: Victor Cruz 29.8 (Simms’ Unsullied)

Surprise of the Game: This has to go to Victor Cruz, as he was the only player to substantially outplay his expectations.

Most Disappointing Performance: TWB Gets Laid surely expected more than 2.6 points from Stevan Ridley. Simms’ Unsullied was disappointed for his fantasy team when Lamar Miller only scored 1.0 point, but I’m sure he felt better seeing how well the Brown’s run defense played.

Notables: Of a handful of close games this week this one was the closest with a 0.5 point margin of victory. Simms’ Unsullied left Jared Cook on the bench with 24.10 points.

.

1 Now I’m Done (StuckInPa) 146.68 vs 9 130lbs of Kosar (Brownie’s Year) 99.36

Summary: Now I’m Done rides Peyton Manning to the biggest blowout of the week over 130lbs of Kosar.

Game High Points: Peyton Manning 46.28 (Now I’m Done)

Surprise of the Game: A number of players could qualify here, including Jason Witten for 130lbs of Kosar and Owen Daniels for Now I’m Done. Peyton Manning beating his projection by more than 25 points belongs here as well.

Most Disappointing Performance: CJ Spiller only scored 3.5 points for 130lbs of Kosar.

Notables: Now I’m Done had Brian Hartline on his bench with 17.4 points. Both teams had a backup QB go over 20 points on the bench, but both starters outperformed their respective backups.

.

2 Optimist Prime (The Licensed Optimist) 131.88 vs 8 Kosar for President (Weeden2Gordon) 106.02

Summary: Another big Denver performance sparks a win as Demaryius Thomas helps carry Optimist Prime over Kosar for President.

Game High Points: Adrian Peterson 29.1 (Optimist Prime)

Surprise of the Game: Adrian Peterson and Demaryius Thomas combined for nearly 60 points for Optimist Prime.

Most Disappointing Performance: Kosar for President would have liked more than 5.0 points from his kicker Matt Bryant.

Notables: Kosar for President left Julius Thomas’ 23.0 points on the bench, but it would not have changed the outcome.

.

3 Stig-o-sauruseseses (Stigosaurus) 122.20 vs 10 Tucks Gong Shows (TuckJob) 87.98

Summary: LeSean McCoy, Reggie Bush, and Stig-o-sauruseseses opened the season with a big win over Tucks Gong Shows.

Game High Points: Colin Kaepernick 30.68 (Tucks Gong Shows)

Surprise of the Game: LeSean McCoy and Reggie Bush combined for 50.0 points for Stig-o-sauruseseses.

Most Disappointing Performance: James Jones played but did not record any stats, gaining 0 points for Tucks Gong Shows.

Notables: Greg Jennings and James Jones combined for 3.3 points as Tucks Gong Shows’ starting wide receivers while Anquan Boldin and Julian Edelman scored 46.7 points from his bench.

.

5 Badass Honey Badgers (Aussie Brown) 88.66 vs 11 Weeden Cough Syrup (SpecialBrownie) 86.78

Summary: Badass Honey Badgers and Dan Bailey won a close victory over Weeden Cough Syrup and Vernon Davis.

Game High Points: Vernon Davis 21.8 (Weeden Cough Syrup)

Surprise of the Game: The biggest surprises were Vernon Davis with 21.8 points and Dan Bailey (Badass Honey Badgers) with 13.0 points.

Most Disappointing Performance: Calvin Johnson and Roddy White combined for 5.6 points for Weeden Cough Syrup.

Notables: Shane Vereen scored 15.9 points on Badass Honey Badgers’ bench while none of his three active running backs scored more than 7.0 points.

.

6 Brownie the Elf (emily522) 73.32 vs 12 Inconcievable (Gabe Durrant) 70.70

Summary: Brownie the Elf overcame David Wilson’s negative points to beat Inconcievable.

Game High Points: Andrew Luck 24.92 (Brownie the Elf)

Surprise of the Game: For lack of a better option Luck is named the surprise of this game.

Most Disappointing Performance: There are plenty of candidates for this dubious honor, but David Wilson certainly "earned" it with -2.1 points.

Notables: Jay Cutler and Brent Celek outscored Cam Newton and Fred Davis from Inconcievable’s bench. Despite Andrew Luck’s game high points, Brownie the Elf would have been better served starting Eli Manning who scored 31.8 points on her bench. Brownie the Elf started Greg Olsen over Jordan Cameron at tight end, giving up 11.2 points in the process.
