Fantasy Football Review (WK1)

Welcome to TimersSports

The first week of fantasy football is in the books (or just about). Each week I try to delicate least one article to "week in review". Week 1 had a little bit of everything. From JCharles 19 yards rushing to Matt Ryan huge day against Saints. Let get rolling.

Positives :

- Brandon Crooks going off against an inconsistent Atlanta Defense. Crooks was impressive in debut.

- LeVeon Bell rewarded his owners with an giant day against the Cleveland Browns.

- Matt Ryan slaughtered the Saints for over 400 yards and multiple Touchdowns. While Drew Brees did the same to Atlanta Defense.

- Roddy White opened the season with an TD for Atlanta.

- Julius Thomas put on a show against the Colts. In a winning effort against Indy.

- Matthew Stafford took it to New York on Monday night with 300+ yards. While scoring 4 TDs in all.

- Mashawn Lynch went off against an soft Packers Defense for 110 yards and 2 TDs.

- New team , same Moreno. Moreno blasted the Pats for 124 yards. Last season he ran wild for 230+ yards against the Pats.

- Vikings looked good in opener. Including an improved Defense and Quarterback play.

- Rob Gronkowski scores TD in his return from injury.

- Vernon Davis rumbles for 2 TD against Cowboys.

-Foster tops 100 yards on the ground vs Washington in his return.

- Chris Johnson looked nice in debut with Jets.

Negatives:

- Peterson , McCoy and Charles combined to score 0 Tds.

- Rodgers and the Pack struggled to do much of anything on Thursday.

- Richardson stumbles as Colts fails to win on Sunday night.

- Tony Romo Owners frustrated after week 1 epic Interception show by Romo.

- Zac Stacy struggles in season opener , leaves owners in slight panic mode

- Vincent Jackson looks horrible against Carolina.

- Bears Defense cannot contain Bills in a losing effort on Sunday.

- New Season , Same Interception-happy Eli Manning.

- Larry Fitz held to limited catches on Monday night.

- Jimmy Graham limited in yardage and No TDs vs Atlanta.

Wanted to put a longer article together with a Waiver Wire Report. But ran out of time.
