Fantasy Fiascoes: Week 2
Every week we set our fantasy lineups, and we expect the guys we invested highly in to produce accordingly. Every week someone lets us down. It’s rare to find that perfect week, in which all your starters are lights out and you win by 50 points. It’s infuriating to lose because your stud players just don’t show up. For purposes of this article, I will avoid listing players who had a bad week due to injury. With that said, let’s vent about the fiascoes from this week.
Quarterbacks
Andrew Luck
He finished as QB27 this week, playing against a Redskins team that didn’t even show up. You have be better than that, dude. Luck is looking more like a streaming option than an every week no-brainer. This wasn’t the end of the world, but if you started him and lost, I bet your a little upset with his production.
Dak Prescott
I hate to say I told you so. Unless it’s the Cowboys, then I LOVE IT. We’ve been telling you the Cowboys offense would stink, and boy do they ever. Even better? The Giants looked WORSE! But back to Dak – he connected with Tavon Austin for a long TD, but outside of that he did absolutely nothing. It looks like he should only be played against really bad defenses. If you drafted Dak, I’m sorry.
Running Backs
David Johnson
Guess who’s back on this list! If you drafted DJ (like me), I understand you feel a little dead inside. The way he is being used is complete bullshit. ONE catch on TWO targets!? Mike McCoy should be fired right now. That’s unacceptable. Johnson is one of the premiere pass catching backs in the league. He’s so electric. Give him the damn ball. The Cardinals are god awful, and they are bringing Johnson’s value down with them. To top it off, they get Khalil Mack and the Bears next week! Kill me now.
Dion Lewis
What a bum. He just has to give us more than this. 14 carries for 42 yards. Yippie. Running Backs are just the worst.
Wide Receivers
Odell Beckham
You blonde-haired fuck. He played the Cowboys defense, and came up with 51 yards. It’s probably not even really Beckham’s fault, I mean he plays with the goofiest QB on planet earth.
Either way, he needs to get his shit together, and quick. This guy wasn’t drafted in the first round to not catch TDs and run mediocre routes.
Julio Jones
Speaking of first round picks who aren’t producing, Julio put up a dud this week. Apparently he is allergic to the MFing end zone. He had three TDs all of last year. He has zero so far this year. Can you imagine having a better red zone threat than this guy? It’s absolutely criminal that he doesn’t have more red zone targets and TDs. He plays the Saints next week – if he doesn’t explode in that game I’m going to lose it.
Tight Ends
Rob Gronkowski
Sure, he was paying the Jags, but he’s Gronk. He has got to get more than 15 yards. Like way more. All the time. The risk with drafting TEs early is that they might play like a TE, and that’s what Gronk did here. He needs to be putting up WR numbers or we are doomed. Maybe the Josh Gordon signing will open some things up. Or maybe he will hit the blunt again and none of it will matter.
Tyler Eifert
We probably won’t get many healthy games from Eifert, so we need the production while we can get it. He has five catches so far this year, totaling 67 yards and zero TDs. I threw up a little in my mouth typing that stat line. I hate TEs. Let’s just remove them from fantasy all together.
