Two straight weeks, two straight references to kid’s games and in particular the same one. Of course, my idea of Roshambo is this and apparently it’s spelled differently. Next week, I’ll vary it up and reference this all-time kids classic. Ok, enough links. That’s the lazy man’s way to humor. Or better put, my only way to humor. Prepare for boredom! It was an odd ranking week for me. I don’t feel I’m at odds with too many other ‘perts so I’m doing my best to highlight a few where I chose to get wit dis and they chose to get wit dat. First up, Knowshon Moreno. He’s about as hit and miss as they come and I’ve basically called him a low end RB1 the last two weeks. Was right one, wrong the other. If this is a Fibonacci sequence, he’s gonna finish the year with better stats than AP. Eh, yeah, it’s not a Fibonacci sequence then. In other differences, I’m seeing Gordon putting up a top 10 week at WR. I know, I know, it’s TNF but Cleveland has played too well at home for me not to get behind them at this point. Speaking of the Browns, they’re my #1 defense this week. Again because of how they play at home but moreso, because of TNF. Yes, I just contradicted myself within the span of just three sentences. Though this be madness yet there is…wait, no. There’s just madness. I also think this is the week the Chiefs storied start hits a bump in the road as apparently I really like the Titans at home a lot more than others. Olsen and Cook? Love the matchups and my rankings reflect that love. Oh and I’m sure someone will say ‘WOAH! Kenny Stills?’ out there. It’s a hunch on a deep league weekly play. I ranked Miles Austin and Darren McFadden like the two are playing. If they’re not, I’ll adjust accordingly but they both have good setups for the week which means their backups (T. Williams and R. Jennings) will wiggle up the ranks if they’re declared out. Oh and David Wilson. If this putrid season is gonna get started for him, it happens this week. He’s only my RB18 in standard but I have huge hopes for him given the matchup. And don’t ask why the Eagles defense isn’t ranked. If their first 4 games don’t give you a hint why, I don’t know if me explaining it would help any more. But enough of that. Let’s get this shin-dig shinning. Here’s the weekly ranks for week 5 of the 2013 Fantasy Football season…
Early Thursday AM note: I didn’t save after the Daryl Richardson news yesterday. It happens. I’ve fixed it and this should reflect shortly. Also have removed CJ Spiller. Sounds like he won’t play this week.
