Another week of JFL Weekly.
It was a little later than expected, but I blame the Phillies.
A big three-game series against the Braves is throwing everything off right now. It's almost a playoff atmosphere.
Which means when the playoffs roll around, I may have some delays then, too.
Nonetheless, it's out and we have a second edition.
JFL Weekly: Second Edition
I must say, while writing these, all I could think about was writing the previews for next week.
I had trouble recapping Week 2 when Week 3 looks so damn sexy.
We have three first-place battles, two featuring four undefeated teams.
Man is Sunday is going to be ridiculous.
Hopefully it won't be as lopsided as Week 2.
It was feast or famine again for teams. It was either win big or lose big for most. Only the Toasters and T-Money saved us from boredom with their exciting matchup that came down to a two-point conversion. Really. It did.
I didn't delve into it this far in the matchup, but had that two-point conversion failed, the Niners would have tried an onside kick, which would have taken away from the return yards that helped the Saints defense score some more points and put the Toasters ahead by more.
Also, had the Saints not won it in regulation, the 49ers could have won the toss in overtime and Frank Gore could have slammed it down the Toasters throat.
It was a wild ending. It was an exciting ending. It's what makes fantasy football great.
That and the game was amazing.
The right decision
I'm shocked.
I was hoping that Andy Reid would make this decision.
He's starting Michael Vick from now on, and it's the right call.
I know Reid has a lot of stock in Kevin Kolb — and I still believe that Kolb can be a legitimate starter — but he has to go with the guy who can win now. And that's Vick. This team completely changes with Vick in the huddle. DeSean Jackson is more dangerous, LeSean McCoy has holes opening everywhere because the outside linebackers, linemen and the spying safeties are too worried about Vick.
Jackson, Maclin, Celek and Avant have 8 second to run around and get open as opposed to the less than 3 that Kolb provides.
With Dallas in an 0-2 hole and the Giants not looking so hot — they did not look good in their win over lowly Panthers — the Eagles have the chance to make a run at this division with Vick.
All I have to say is I'm excited. I'm re-energized. I'm feeling like DeSean Jackson catching a 45-yard TD pass.
I'm feeling playoffs.
