1. Rushing, we have 2 WRs who are RB1's and in the top 7 for yardage. Farrelly/Browns and Stures/Texans, so apparently, there are no position rules/restrictions for the RB position The Eagles RB John Cruz is the leader with 416 yds, 4.6 per carry and 4 TDs with next best being 2 TDs. Next is WR Farrelly followed by the Bills RB Sean Stein, a 7 yr vet who was a 3rd round pick! He is +5 for his career with a a super high 95 Ai rating. How did he get to the 3rd round with a 90 rating at the time!!?? wow!
2. The top 2 QBs have outstanding 125 qbr's, Livengood/Texans and Walker/Falcons, close in the 3rd spot is KC's Stephen "Lotion" Jurgens with a 122.5 qbr. Just under the 120 mark, is Oakland's Vince "PL" Moses with a 119 qbr. (PL is Promised Land)
3. For a team who's owner downplayed his roster at the start of the season, the Chiefs have the top receiver so far in Danny "Cool" Breeze, with 5 TDs and very nice 26.6 ypc. To go along with the #3 QB. No more "poor mouthin" Meat, lol. Well, at least about the offense and those two players. After opening with a strong win, the Chiefs are 1-3 so far with two of the losses by 1 & 3 pts.
4. Best scoring team in the NFC is the Falcons (surprise!) with almost double the points vs the next best Eagles. 208 to 129. Best in the AFC are the Raiders with 154. ricmoneys Saints are the surprising leader in the NFC in points against, giving up only 49 pts. Unfortunately, they are also the lowest scoring team with 39, all they need is a little better offense! Three teams in the AFC have given up fewer than 50 pts, Texans & Colts (40) and the Patriots (44).
5. CJs Vikings are 3-1, 2 more wins already than they had last season and on top in the NFC North division. Another good example of what happens to a team when an experienced owner with a high winning % takes over a losing team, and the result is a quick turnaround.
6. The Cardinals LDE Harold Doane is the sack leader with 5. 5 yr vet that was a 1.11 pick by the Cards and has played up to his rating/atts. Right behind Doane, with 4 sacks, is Atlanta's LDE3/RDE2/DT2 Charles "Stork II" Hendricks, He's a 13 yr vet, originally drafted by the Bills with the 1.2 pick!! And busted in camp along with -22 for his career to date, current Ai rating of 73. This is his 2nd season with the Falcons and has already equaled his sack total from last season after signing him in FA3 for double the next best offer, he def paid off for marinarul, another reason that supports the 3 time LC winners run and strong shot at a 3 peat this season. (not tryin to jinx, ..... not, lol)
7. The league leaders in thefts with 4 each are the Skins (thats right, team name has not been changed) CB1, 7 yr vet Anthony Hanson, and the Chiefs 8 yr vet(there u go Meat!) MLB Jeromy Unruh (famed CA state politician Jesses great grandson). So far, experience looms large as an important attribute.
8. jgcruz's Chargers are 4-0 but have been cuttin it pretty close, the wins are by 1/Chiefs, 2/Bengals, 4/Raiders, and 7/Broncos.
Cheers all, and on to the rest of the season.
Eagles RB Cruz ........................... Chiefs WR Breeze..................... Texans QB Livengood
