So, the week 2 matchups have come to an end.
After a great start, I was 25 points ahead of bueller by 4pm. Unfortunately, the Seahawks then played, and the Legion of Boom proceeded to suck serious ass and gave up 30 points to Phillip "Tantrum" Rivers and Antonio Gates. Green Bay's furious comeback against the New York Jets (including an 80 yard TD catch from Jordi Nelson) meant that I was beaten soundly by the end of Sunday night.
Boost started off well against Absyrd's ALPSholes and never slowed down. DeMarco Murray gained a total of 173 yards both in the air and on the ground, as well as a TD, with Alfred Morris rushing for two more for the Redskins. While the Seahawks didn't have a great day, Marshawn Lynch still managed to get some points for Boost, getting 73 combined yards and a TD. Three TDs from both Peyton Manning and Brandon Marshall, as well as 9 points from the 41 year old Adam Vinateri couldn't save absyrd from falling 30 points behind by the end of Monday, and guaranteeing Boost's place at the top of the league for another week.
TJcaustin has moved up into second after a 30 point victory against now bottom of the league jdcarpe. JD was no match as five of TJ's selections made over 14 points, Arian Foster being the biggest highlight with 150 yards and a TD to his name. Rob Gronkowsi, who has just come back from major knee surgery, only had 32 rushing yards from JD's TE position, despite playing 28 snaps for the Patriots. His Patriot woes continued, as his benched Pats defence scored 24 points, with 6 sacks and 4 INTs, including a punt block, returned for a TD. Riley Cooper and Carlos Hyde (in for Adrian Peterson) had poor games, only scoring 1.3 points between the two of them, rounding off a miserable week for Carpe Victoriam.
Hoff had a good start too, with Le'Veon Bell putting up a 100 yard game on Thursday night against the Ravens. Sunday started with both teams pulling in the points, until RG3 came off the field injured against the Jags. Salt was rubbed into the wounds even more as Phillip Rivers had a great game netting over 25 points, unfortunately from the comfort of pr0ximity's bench. With no QB, and zero points from one of his starting RBs, pr0ximity started lagging behind as Giovanni Bernard posted almost 170 yards for the Bengals and Hoff. Pr0ximity only ended up 13 points behind however, thanks to a great display by LeSean McCoy in the Eagles win over the Colts, bringing him up off the bottom of the table. Hoff remains in 7th.
Our final matchup was our only "home" win of the week, with Signature bagging his first win of the season. HWood started off well, with Aaron Rodgers throwing for almost 350 yards and 3 TDs, while Zac Stacy managed to grab 11 points, even if he didn't keep his hands on the football all day... With DeSean Jackson going off injured in the 1st quarter for the Redskins, and Dwayne Allen not putting up any points against the Eagles, Hwood's other notable scorers were on his bench, with Randall Cobb putting 18.5 points on the board. Even Sunday night's poor show by the 49ers defence couldn't stop Signature, with Nick Foles having a good performance against the Colts, and Superman Jimmy Graham putting 23.8 points up. Darren Sproles also managed the same figure, unfortunately on Signature's bench, maybe a roster move for this week
This win meant Signature leapfrogged Hwood in fifth, and up into fourth place, as the highest scoring team with a 1-1 record.
