Week 3 Recap: PopoZão

The commissioner was on vacation last weekend, so here is the Week 3 recap!

Team of the Week!

Team KFed Shiner is our Team of the Week, with 142.2 points, the highest total of the week by 25 points. Their leading scorers: 

EJ Manuel, with 23 incompletions and a whopping 8 sacks, good for 44 points;

Mike Nugent, with a missed 50+ FG, and the highest scoring play in Bizarro Football, the Missed Extra Point, worth 25 of his 30 points for the week. 

Trent Richardson, with 13 carries at 2.7 yards/carry, and 3 dropped passes, for a healthy 24.5 points, despite scoring a touchdown.

Player of the Week!

Chad Henne may have put up the most points this week, but Mike Nugent missed an extra point, so I'm naming him your Cymbalta: Depression Hurts™ Player of the Week!

Your other leading scorers:

QB: Chad Henne, 46.5 points (20 incompletions, 2 INTs, 1 fumble, 3 sacks), 2 Girls 1 PUP

RB: Maurice Jones-Drew, 33.1 points (19 carries at 2.3 yards/carry, 3 drops), Team McNasty (on the bench!)

WR: Kenny Britt, 25 points (ZERO catches on 5 targets), Purple People Eaters (on the bench!)

TE:  Kyle Rudolph, 15 points (5 catches on 8 targets), Hannibal Lechlers (on the bench!)

D/ST: Raiders, 25 points (37 points allowed, 536 yards allowed), Purple People Eaters

K: Mike Nugent, 30 points, Team KFed Shiner

P: Dave Zastudil, 9 points (8 punts, 1 blocked punt), Team KFed Shiner

News and Notes!

Josh Freeman out, Mike Glennon in! Greg Schiano probably angry!

Trent Richardson traded to the Colts! I think that means I'm the Browns' 1st string running back. 

Week 2 Recap: That's Ms. Bizarro, if you're McNasty

Going up late, because I'm lazy! Woo!

Team of the Week!

Team McNasty is our Team of the Week, with 141.7 points, the highest total of the week by 17 points. Their leading scorers: 

Ryan Tannehill, with 5 sacks, 3 fumbles, 11 incomplete passes, and also ran the ball 4 times for barely a yard, for a total of 40.7 points

Montee Ball, who managed to pick up a whopping 14 yards on 12 carries, and threw in a fumble for good measure, good for 22.8 points

Chris Johnson, who ran the ball 25 times, picking up 96 yards, scored 22.2 points, which is what happens when you run the ball a lot and fail to average 4 yards a carry. 

Player of the Week!

Geno Smith is your Cymbalta: Depression Hurts™ Player of the Week! Geno Smith threw 20 incompletions, 3 interceptions, and took 4 sacks, for a week-high total of 50.9 points. He is now the 2nd-leading scorer this season, trailing only Week 1's player of the week Brandon Weeden. 

Your other leading scorers:

QB: Geno Smith, 50.9 points, Team Williams

RB: Adrian Peterson, 33 points (26 carries, 1 fumble lost, 1 dropped pass), Purple People Eaters (on the bench!)

WR: Greg Little, 38 points (4 catches on 12 targets), Golden Showers

TE:  Jared Cook, 19 points (1 catch on 5 targets), 2 Girls 1 PUP (on the bench!)

D/ST: Redskins, 35 points (38 points allowed, 580 yards allowed), Hannibal Lechlers (on the bench!)

K: David Akers, 20 points (2 missed 40-49 FG), Team McNasty

P: Robert Malone, 9 points (9 punts), Golden Showers

News and Notes!

None, because this is posted way too late. 

The big Bizarro news of this past week would have been that Brandon Weeden is hurt, and Brian Hoyer, not Jason Campbell, is set to start. 

Week 1 Recap: Purple People Ate

Welp, I forgot to do the season preview stuff. Oh well. Here is your Week 1 Bizarro League Recap!

Team of the Week!

Congratulations to the Purple People Eaters, who scored an outstanding 158.5 points, 30 points higher than the next highest team. Their leading scorers: 

Kenbrell Thompkins, who led all WR with 46 points (more on him in a bit); 

Christian Ponder, with 40.4 points, thanks to 10 incomplete passes, 3 INTs, 3 Sacks and a lost fumble; and 

Marshawn Lynch, who managed just 43 yards on 17 carries, and dropped a pass for good measure, for a total of 27.1 points. 

The Purple People Eaters also managed only one negative score this week, with the Oakland Raiders Defense somehow only allowing 21 points and less than 300 yards of offense for a total of -3 points. 

Players of the Week!

The best performance this week came from Brandon Weeden, who put up an astounding 6 sacks, 3 interceptions, a fumble, and 27 incomplete passes, for a week-high total of 62 points!

Here are your highest scorers from each position (not on the wire):

QB: Brandon Weeden, 62 points, Hannibal Lechlers

RB: Doug Martin, 54 points (4 dropped passes, 2 fumbles, 24 rushes for 65 yards), Team Williams (not in starting lineup)

WR: Kenbrell Thompkins, 46 points (10 dropped passes on 14 targets, only 42 yards), Purple People Eaters

TE: Ed Dickson, 19 points (4 drops on 5 targets), 2 Girls 1 PUP

K: Randy Bullock, 5 points (1 missed 50+ FG), Dwarf's Penny

P: Bryan Anger, 12 points (11 punts, 1 touchback), Hannibal Lechlers

D/ST: Chargers, 14 points (28 points allowed, 400-449 yards allowed), Golden Showers (not in starting lineup)

The worst performance from an active player was Reggie Wayne, started by yours truly, who had zero dropped passes, 8 catches, 96 yards, and a TD, netting him -17 points. 

News and Notes

Blaine Gabbert, the #2 QB last week, will be out this week, so Chad Henne will get the opportunity to make the Oakland Defense look good. 

Danny Amendola is out, which means Tom Brady will probably throw Kenbrell Thompkins more than he did last week, which hopefully will mean more dropped passes. 

Brandon Jacobs is back in a Giants uniform, which will probably cut into David Wilson's fumble opportunities. If Wilson does lose his job, Jacobs is a great candidate to run into the line 20 times a game. 

Intro, Theory & Basic League Settings

Hello everyone, welcome to the Bizarro Fantasy Football League, not affiliated with any previous Bizarro Fantasy Football Leagues you might have heard of (and a quick Google search turns up a few). Due to the demand of people wanting to get in but only having 10 spots, we've decided to create this blog so people can follow along with the league. We'll be posting some analysis, matchup summaries, and probably nominating players of the week at each position. Be warned, we are lazy, and will probably give up posting after Week 2.
