You know what I love around here… Jay. If I even mention the Chargers, I get an editors note. [Jay’s Note: True.] Like if I wanted to be a jerk, I would say the Chargers were originally from L.A. and need to come back home again. Or that I was a Denver fan since they drafted Elway and I found out my uncle had Bronco season tickets from day one of the franchise, but I wore this hat prior to that.  Yup, I thought it was cool because it looked like the old Pittsburgh Pirates hat and it was 1980… I was five-years-old. Speaking of the Chargers, with Gates returning, will this completely change everything they have done in fantasy so far? I hope you sold Keenan Allen… I’m kidding of course, but situations like this do worry me. Philip has a bestie already Ladarius and Keenan. Antonio es numero uno. Like we say on the baseball side, I’ll be watching this situation like a cyclops with a monocle. With possible injuries to Johnson and Floyd, this could be a real shizz show to predict when they are healthy. I also wonder if Woodhead will be catching as many balls out of the backfield. My Samoan NFL guru friend thinks that if they were smart the would line Greene up as a wide receiver and really mess with their opponents. These are just my thoughts when looking at what a team will do when someone this important returns to the field. It’s football, the teams change game plans like Tehol changes booty calls… week-to-week. Wait, a minute, I’m here to write an update… or am I?
Show of hands, how many disgruntled Eric Ebron owners do we have here today? *raises hand* I always love me some cheap TE action, like a catcher in baseball, don’t waste draft day picks on these guys. With that out of the way, I got your under the radar stand in. Okay, well, he’s not that under the radar, at 38% owned he’s obviously getting some run. This week he was 10th in Jay’s rankings, which means he should be picked up, and goes by the name Richard Rodgers (no relation to Aaron even though they went to the same college and play for the same team). Last week he had a season high six targets and the lone TD catch for the Pack. Does this mean a lot? Maybe, maybe not. St. Louis lost Alec Ogletree last week and I have a sneaking suspicion this could become an issue for them as they adjust. The Rams have only given up one TD this year to WR’s and if this trend continues, then it only builds the “upsideness” of Rodgers. What’s the point of this Jack? To re-inforce Jay’s ranks for the week in case you glossed over them. I got your back homie. Okay enough of that, we should get into the update… wait, no, don’t. Really quick, I have an IDP add for you. DeAndre Levy is back and should be added right now, he’s an every down backer and a top 10 LB when healthy. Now, on to the standings…

Bear with me guys… and girls. Hey, this isn’t baseball, we should have plenty of girls on the football side. *goes to closet and dusts off white denim jacket* Sup… How yo doin? Sorry, I get easily sidetracked when I think I might have some girl readers. I was going into some bear with me while I play with the layout garbage. Yup, I’m playing with the layout a bit as I need to make this my own. I did that with baseball this year where I wrote this column every week for 26 straight weeks. Jay, next time I see you, remind yourself to be less nice to me so I don’t end up doing things like this. I keed, I keed, I like that we have leagues for our commenters to play with us and each other while I peep on them and write on a blog about it… Okay that sounds a lot worse than it is. The Bull of Tehol and Judith from Jay-6 are sitting pretty at 1 and 2 of the RCL’s in Week 5. If history has taught us anything, it’s foolish to think this will last. The bye weeks will bring out the bad week in all of us. On the RazzDP side, it’s me in first. Yup… and fourth with Inferno’s Curse and TecmoBallz sandwiched between both of me. I really shouldn’t be talking myself up… anyone who knows me knows I hate talking about myself. As usual, I’m having a blast like I do every year I play in an IDP league, how about you? I invite any of you RazzDP’ers to come in here and share how its been going for you. I want some feedback so I can push for more of these next year. Until next week, enjoy your names in hyper link.
