Week 1 GC: Houston @ Pittsburgh

[D3C4K]

I told myself this year that I would stock up on receivers early and take my chances on backs later, as I had a low pick and wasn't crazy about the other options around that spot. So Parker falls to me in the 6th, and I nab Turner in the 7th, praying that they ive me decent numbers while Moss, Ocho, Holt, Gates and Smith give me steady production. So what happens in week 1? Turner runs wild on the Lions and Parker has more tds in his first game than he did all last season, while Chad and Holt give me nothing and Moss is looking at Matt Cassell as his starting qb. Fantasy football is crazy sometimes, but I love it all the same.

Hopefully AJ gets a garbage time TD.

wasn't Houston supposed to be one of the surprise teams this season???

Well, I guess this means Parker gets the starting gig and goaline carries for good now.

Zach Diles with 11 tackles? The new Demeco Ryans?

big ben left early in the 4th due to the scoreboard and not to injury, right?

Big Ben left the game because the Steelers were winning 35-3.

They still could be, but when the offensive line decides to block, the Steelers are as good as any team in the league. IMO this wasn't a reflection on Houston as much as it was on Pittsburgh.
