About Me

I'm a 27-year-old fantasy football enthusiast originally from Detroit and now living in Chicago. Yes, I am a Lions fan, and yes it does suck. Why do you think I have so much time to spend on fantasy football? I'm going on my 5th season of fantasy football this year and became the proud owner of some hardware last season. I was also recently hired to be the Senior Writer at FantasyCrowd.com.

Team #2

QB Tom Brady 6
RB Adrian Petersen 17.6

Team 2 was not able to take advantage of their one player advantage with LT out. Andre Johnson put on a show, I thought AP would put up bigger numbers considering he was playing against the Lions but what was even more surprising was that Tom Brady did not throw any touchdowns and 1 interception.

Darelle Revis, the Jets defense and Rex Ryan deserve a lot of credit with their scheme. They put Revis one-on-one against Moss who did a great job and were able to pressure Brady all day. The Patroits have not looked like the Pats of 07’ and if it wasn’t for the last couple minutes of their opener Brady would have no touchdowns at all. Granted, they were without Wes Welker who is very valuable. I can hardly believe I’m doing this myself but Tom Brady…you’re fired.

This week was a perfect example of how unpredictable the fantasy apprentice game can be. Who would've ever thought Tom Brady would be gone in week 2?

Since LT is injured and Team 2 has no quarterback now I am dropping LT and picking up Peyton Manning for Team 2. See you guys next week!
