ok week 1 appeared to be like opposite day, but there were 3 games that stood out to me the most. so let me highlight those games and the players that stood out/i'm keeping an eye on. not sure if any of this could help fantasy players, but here we go.

starting with the Dolphins vs. Patriots. this went as expected for me, but i really think Belichick's time is done. he has his sons with him coaching and i dont think it's a good idea at all. they need to replace the three of them. this will never happen, but it would be cool to see Brady coach them. Tyreek Hill is definitely a great addition to the dolphins. sunday he had 12 targets with 8 catches, 94 yds. also, jaylen waddle was impressive; 4/5 rec for 69 yds, a 42yd 1 td, and 13.8ypt. lets compare qb's, Mac Jones completed 21 out of 30 catches for 213 yds, but did suffer a back injury in their loss. he was sacked twice, including a strip-sack resulting in a miami td. meanwhile tua completed 23/33 for 270 yds. ne simply can not run the ball too.
final score: mia 20 - 7 ne


bears vs. 49ers
let me just say, what a freaking fun game to be at, even in that rain. the first half for the bears was gross. Fields could not pass and they also could not run the ball. but they came out in the second half looking fresh and the niners looked tired from running the ball so much. for the niners, i will highlight deebo - he only completed 2/8 receptionsfor 14 yards, but he rushed 8 times for 52 yds and 1 td. player highlight for the bears will be david montgomery; although he didn't gain a lot of yards per carry, he did touch the ball the most on the field with 17 carries for 26 yds (1.5 ypc) and 3/4 receptions for 18 yds (6ypt). Also shout out to dante pettis for the 51yd td
final score: chi 19 - 10 sf


vikings vs. packers
now it was so fun to see little princess rodgers throw his fits. he no longer has his favorite weapon in davante adams, and only had 1 td for the entire game by aj dillon. he had 10 carries for 45 yds (9.8 ypc). dillon also received 5/6 targets for 46yds (7.7 ypt). meanwhile for the vikings, justin jefferson really showed out and impressed everyone. he had 9/11 receptions for 184yds (16.7ypt). in the first half alone, jefferson had 6 receptions, 158yds and 2tds while the packers all together had 101yds. and get this, he now has 5 career games with 150 rec yds, and is the only player 150 rec yds at 23yrs old or younger. definitely keep an eye out for jefferson.
final score: min 23 - 7 gb

Opposite day is right. That was some crazy stuff.

I knew Miami was going to be good, but damn they are good. They will be pressing Buffalo for that division.

Being from Midwest, I was happy the bear won and I really like Montgomery as a RB. He'd be a big star on a better team. Bears still need better (I'd take average) QB play.

Rodgers is screwed this year. I don't see how he can carry the team alone. There isn't any talent there. IMO GB will not be going to playoffs.

bears def need better qb play, fields did not have the best game. they should of ran him more than he did cause he had more success w qb rush than handing it off. his handoffs were so obvious the niners would immediately jump on the rb. i've been saying this so much, BUT the second half adjustments were key and eberflus appears to have the knowledge to make the right adjustments to succeed. not going to get my hopes up though

now rodgers.....lol....this man. he has absolutely no one hence why he was throwing his little fits. we have bears vs packers this weekend and i grabbed bears +10 already at Bovada. bears should definitely at least cover this

I hope Eberflus does well. Glad he adjusted at half. That's always the best sign you have a good coach. Nagy would have changed nothing at half and lost. This could be something the Bears can build on.

Good luck to your Bears team this year Le.

OMG, I had a patient that had a nut sack like a bowling ball. I shit you not we had to have the huge elevated toilet seat. He had to piss in a urinal but when shitting had to lift with both hands and pick the nut sack up to sit down to shit. I felt so bad because it looked painful and would get pinch. It was like Christmas day for the dude when I ordered him a bunch of those one size fits all stretchable panties for him that gave him support.
