For the 2nd year in a row TPD began his season in style, with back to back week one come from behind victories on Monday Night Football. Fans of the franchise rejoiced as TPD's stellar gameday managing once again put his players in a position to perform their best, and they came through with a huge victory. TPD picked up Blair Walsh a day before the match-up began and he started C.J. Anderson in place of Ameer Abdullah. Without each of those moves TPD would not have won the match-up. It's the nature of the beast in the MFFL, one flip of a coin changes the fortunes of all, but one thing that gives TPD and his fans confidence is his ability to more times than not make the right decision come gameday morning.
Week 2 begins tonight and TPD is squaring off with a familiar foe. The TDs franchise is the typical week one opponent of TPD, but they had to settle for a week 2 match-up as TPD did battle in a championship rematch. The TDs franchise is always confident and this season present perhaps their toughest challenge. Their roster is very solid from top to bottom and the differences in talent are negligible when comparing specific player match-ups.
TPD will look for a much stronger showing from Brady. If it does not come this week against the Saints then serious questions will arise regarding Brady's long term value. TPD is looking for bounce back weeks from his other stars as well, and better performances from Green, Thomas, and Kelce seem like a positive possibility. The late additions last week will remain in the starting lineup, Anderson and Walsh, while TPD could change it up in his flex with a possible free agent pick up from earlier this week.
Week one victories for TPD are somewhat of a rarity, but having it happen two years in a row gives him confidence. TPD is not forgetting though that he lost 3 straight after week one a year ago, and his team struggled to score points during that span. While a week 2 victory may not be a necessity, it would be a huge boost for a franchise plagued by slow starts. Giving this team an early buffer could spell doom for many a manager of the MFFL. While the NASTY may not have been maxed out on Sunday, it was still oozing everywhere as TPD scored over 100 points while his best four players combined for only 36 points. That's some scary NASTY. The TDs franchise is as confident as ever, but a NASTY display come Sunday may remind them of the awesome oozing power they have fell prey to in the past. The quest to conquer the East begins this week.
Player Profile: Jacquizz Rodgers
Remember last year in this same match-up when TPD's stunning selection of DeAngelo Williams paid off on a Monday night comeback victory over this very franchise. Well TPD remembers, and this week he will attempt do something of a similar sort. In steps Jacquizz Rodgers as the lead back for Tampa Bay, and with it big opportunities. It's a quintessential TPD move, and one that reeks of NASTY. Do it Jacquizz...do it.
Friday Update: TPD made a massive splash just before the Thursday kickoff. He acquired Odell Beckham Jr. OBJ was an invaluable piece of the championship puzzle last season and having him back in the fold for this year is truly remarkable and unexpected. TPD has taken on risks with a few trades of late, but the rewards could be exponential. TPD is working out a Beckham dance as we speak. NASTY.
