Who's Got Hunches For Week 2?

[SmokingMonkey]

don't be sleeping on the OAK DEF, they actually held Luck/Indy in check for a lot of that road game. Their front 7 isn't really that bad, and could be borderline good at home.

I like OAK DST more than Henne, just cause there are an absolute shit ton of decent QBs you can plug into your lineup every week

That's one view. Or maybe Luck got lucky last season? (Did Treff pay you to say that?)

Isaiah Pead = hunch. D-Rich has a foot injury. Doesn't seem serious. We have so many Rams fans in the MBBRL. What's the word in the Gateway City?

HAHA! No, but I do agree to a point. Henne will have a decent day is my guess, but not any better than the other dozen options on the wire are capable of. IF the 'Phins have a big day, my money would be on the runners over Henne.

Isaiah Pead = hunch.

Nice call on Pead- I hope you are right. I grabbed him in my Money league early this week. RBs are so thin in that league that when someone like Pead steps forward it is a coop to grab him.

it'd sure make my day in MBBRL! Not to mention the rankings challenge.

Right now my money league team is just the opposite: Hoarded RB after keeping 2, got lucky to get AJohnson, rolling with Steve Smith as my #2 and the rest while decent aren't great. Waiting for the one big WW wonder WR; put a bid on Edleman but was outbid.

Mike Tolbert rumbles for 2 TD in Buffalo.

RG3 is the number 1 QB this week in fantasy.

TKO, if you're out there this morning. ..do you have any reasoning behind this or just a feeling? Asking because I'm getting a headache thinking about how rusty and our of it he was last week. Convince me to start him over Kaepernick against SEA..??

Without getting into depth charts and such, or naming guys like Sherman and Browner and Thomas and Chancellor...woops I just did. Seriously though, I suspect the Seahawks defense have spent the majority of their free time on the 49ers and C.K. In Seattle, I would have no problem at all sitting Kaep and starting RGIII against a terrible, terrible Packers secondary across from a pissed off Aaron Rodgers who will put up points making a shoot out being more likely than that in New Orleans today... or even Giants/Broncos. I would take the over in Was/GB until they moved it to 73.


... the only thing that might make all of this moot is if it's piss poor weather (I think it's calling for "drizzle"), so less that Treff, I go RG3. I would expect a week 1 Newton-like performance from Kaep against the best secondary in the league.

Isn't Browner out this week?

Whether he is or not, it is really hard to sit Kaeps. It is a real gamble either way. The Redskins game plan will be to run early and often with Morris and try to control the tempo. If the Skins are able to do it, RG3's line might look more like Brady's from Thursday with fewer attempts.

Now, I give it about a 1/4 chance of going down like this, but the Skins are going to run a lot until they are playing from behind. The ball will be in Kaepernick's hands regardless. While I agree that RG3 has more upside this week, he is also much more likely to put up a massive dud.

Kaeps will give you 15-25, while the spectrum for RG3 is much broader.

I think the rain, coupled with how unimpressed I was with RGIII last week. .I'm sticking with Kaeps in a dome with best dual that QB bragging rights on the line. Not to mention divisional rivalry.

Nobody is found much hitting on hunches thus far. . glad I only made one, and the way it's going for everyone else., I'm not sure I wanna know.

But, If TKO was using reverse "homer" psychology on his Bills with his.. its working okay thus far.

... RG3 with another terrible first half, but 28 points isn't too bad... just not #1 like I said, but will it be more than C.K. in Seattle?

our scoring he had 36.. if Keaps can get 2 scores from 20 yards out, or one really long one, he'll beat that

Well Kaeps loses an eyebrow, I escape with a 1 pt win, that should have been a 40 pt win had I just listened to TKO... least I sucked it out

And your hunch was pretty good there, Treff.

No scores, and about 25 yds off..but yea, nice day for DMC.

hunch thread was a fun idea, almost like "Being John Malkovich" but more like "Being The Foot"
