Week Two is winding up and we’re here for it. My fantasy teams can’t wait for this week to be over. Enough said.

Fallout:

-As noted in a slate preview yesterday (Broken Clock Alert) Kupp went down but it was much earlier than I thought.

-Pacheco’s fibula (sounds like a Star Trek galaxy) needs some repairs-I’ve noted in the past that this dude is a hard runner in the Chris Carson vein and here we are. If I were Kareem Hunt I’d be sending Andy a bouquet of ribs to grease the wheels.

-Bryce Young is headed to the headset store. I’ll trust Canalis on this-if his career is to move forward he needs a re-set.

-Tua is always concussed, we just don’t know it yet sometimes.

-Mixon is banged up as are all rb’s with that much mileage on the tires.

-Oh look, the Giants scored three TD’s and didn’t allow one and yet still lost. What’s the secret to their lack of success? Bad roster gameday management. Kicker Graham Gano was on the injury report on Saturday, dealing with a hammy. Daboll figured he was, ‘ready to go’ and that says a bunch. He ended up injuring himself so the Giants had to go for two on their last two TD’s and go for it on 4th down on another drive. Allow me to give you some backstory. Last year vs the Jets Gano was visibly hobbling but was asked to kick a long-ish field goal, injured himself and was put on IR the next day. Hey, things happen, whatever. Last week punt returner Gunner Olszewski was dealing with a hamstring issue, injured it to the extent that he couldn’t continue and the emergency replacement fumbled a punt. And so it goes…

-The Steelers are 2-0 for the first time since Big Ben retired and a certain 911 fella is spreading the news to domestic abuse victims everywhere. They’ll need to pile up the W’s now because starting on November 17th the sked is this-Ravens, Browns, Bengals, Browns, Eagles, Ravens, Chiefs, Bengals and OH MY!

-Malik Woods had the unmitigated gall yesterday to change a passing play to a running play. Was he influenced by the defensive alignment? Nope. The primary influence was his center Josh Myers throwing up on the ball immediately before it reached Woods’ hands. Ewww!

To The Game!

Falcons/Eagles:

-Cousins looked pretty stiff back there last week and Pitts had but three catches and London only had three targets. If it was just rust he should bounce back against a Philly secondary that let the Packers Jayden Reed go nuts.

-Saquon had a mere 26 touches last week and Sirianni has said that he wants his buddy fresh down the stretch. (which is a long way off, btw, Nick) I look at the Eagles rb room of Gainwell and Will Shipley and laugh softly to myself. Let’s be honest, Philly is going to milk Barkley of everything he has and say ‘toodles’ two years from now.

-A.J. Brown is out so Devonta should get double digit looks and have himself a game.

-Since 2022 Hurts has accounted for 75 TD’s, second only to Josh Allen’s 90.

-Bijan tied his career high for touching the rock and maybe you should expect much more of that ce soir.

Get in there and do me proud.
