NFL Week 1 Discussion

[pokerface40]

Holy smokes the day is here! It truly feels like Christmas. Let's get things rolling ladies and gents.

It should be interesting to see if the Broncos D can contain Cam again. And as a CJA truther that owns him in every league I am in, I'm hoping for a strong start to the season.

Other than that I will have my eye on Funchess and Virgil Green, two guys I think can break out in a big way this year.

I was actually going to come here and say that I have no one in the games tonight starting for my team.

Then I remembered I am starting Virgil Green in my 2TE league when you mentioned his name.

I will be curious to see what he does.

I also want to see how the Panthers secondary is without Norman.

Finally, what we've all been anxiously anticipating: The debut of Trevor Simiean.

I like Green, but not in this matchup. Panthers have one of the (if not the) most athletic group of LBs so he's got his work cut out for him. I could see Denver having south of 20 pass attempts and being content to play a virtual stalemate and let their D do the damage. Although I'm excited for the game to be back, this one doesn't shape up to be much more than a defensive battle in my eyes.

CJA is going to prove what i have been saying -- he is average

Don't expect much from CJA or Booker tonight, more interested to see how they look relative to each other.

I have DT playing tonight, so I hope he shreds those rookie corners. Not only to help me win, but restore some faith in him. I cant get anyone in my league to trade for him. His value isnt low, its non existent.

I own Jonathan Stewart in all 3 leagues, and he's starting in 2. If he can get me 75 total yards and maybe a score, I will be elated. We shall see what the Denver run-D looks like now.

Interested in watching Marvin Jones this year. I wonder what he can do as his teams #1 guy. I wonder if he's good enough to play against the top DB on the other team every week.

[Friction]

I am pumped, but it is more a Xmas Eve type pumped, and Sunday I Xmas morning. I have very little fantasy implications and am not betting on the game in any fashion.

I'm in way too many leagues to own CJA in all of them (plus we're in a league together so it'd be impossible for me to own him in ALL of them), but I do have heavy exposure to him. I too was one of the original CJA truthers from back when Moreno was having a top 5 season and Ball was anointed the heir-apparent.

I'm starting CJA everywhere I own him this week, but the matchup is pretty tough. The Panthers secondary is decidedly weaker, but their front 7 is still pretty beastly. With Siemian making his first start, and CJA's backfield running mate Booker making his first start as well, I expect CJA to get a heavy workload tonight and supplement his stats with some nice usage in the passing game. I'm not expecting a huge game, but on sheer volume I could see CJA getting close to 100 total yards and maybe he picks up a TD. Let's go CJA!!!

Booker's first NFL carry is a lost fumble.

Not good for him.

[The Fantasy Feud]

Wow great start Booker!

[KeepCalmandDynasty]

Booker oof

[BuckeyeNation]

On the bright side, that should ensure Anderson an even heavier workload the rest of the night.
