I thought I would start off with this video. Most of these videos are corny, but I got a kick out of this one so thought I would share. Maybe we can do one of these next year.
Question: is the guy in the 83 Wes Welker Broncos jersey's hair real?
Let’s jump around and chat about a few different things:
1) Tweets that didn’t age well:
Now he deleted his twitter account and has requested a trade. Whoops?
2) Please Please Please let this be real.
3) Maybe Aaron is onto something…
4) This sounds about right…
5) Did you know?
6) Carolina Panthers Trades. First they shipped Robby Anderson out of town faster than Billy at a Crab Leg Buffet. Then they traded Christian McCaffery in a shocker to the 49ers. Meanwhile DJ Moore (who had 0 points, 7 yards on 7 targets in Week 6) is like:
7) When do we think Sam Howell gets his first shot? That may actually motivate me to watch a Redskins game.
8) Yes. Way off.
9) Bye weeks are starting to impact matchups. Week 7 will be a crucial one.
10) Like Monsters Inc. But scarier.
11) Not safe for work. But leaked audio of the Tom Brady tirade last weekend.
12) Is he talking about the Bears or The Commish?
13) Hey KRABS, just in case you want to listen to him. Hit me up.
14) PS, KRABS you do realize that the curse of Jeff Wilson Jr. struck again right? This time he vaporized all of his own fantasy value with the trade of Christian McCaffery. Dang.
Oh and don’t forget you were the Jose’s Taco Truck Blowout of the Week so yeah. Things aren’t going great right now. Maybe you want to drop Jeff Wilson?
15) LMAO at this
16) Brent and Billy continue to pace the league with 5-1 records. For what feels like the seventh year and a row Billy's team is Josh Allen, Austin Ekeler, and some other dudes. That equation tends to flame out as the year goes on, can it work this year? The Hype Train on the other hand has one of his deepest rosters in his franchise's history and is riding a wave of First Round WR and Mark Andrews to first place. Mark Andrews is probably the highest ROI keeper in the league for this season and there are no signs that this team is slowing down anytime soon.
Before we get to the awards lets check this week’s episode of Gridiron Heights:
Manager of the Weak
4 of 6 weeks I have scored 13 or less points at the QB position. You would think I was purposefully trying to pick players who stink. I mean it’s a little ridiculous at this point. And I mean let’s throw to every other receiver on the Patriots other than Jakobi Meyers the week I spend $16 FAAB and start him.
And of course Barkley would have a shot to score another TD at the end of his game and decided to go down at the 1 to run out the clock (if he scores I win). But hey two straight weeks in the 70s that isn’t really something to be impressed about. It’s something that gets you selected or Manager of the Weak.
And lets be honest. I am getting sick of picking VZ here even though he started a player on bye (loser).
It’s time to pick it up Jonathan. Let’s go.
Move of the Week
Wasn’t anything really interesting this week so I am going to go with the ACC refs for move of the week. Honestly its been a rough season for the ACC Refs but lets give them some credit for not screwing it up and basically saving us Saturday night.
MVP Brandon McManus, Joe Burrow, Mark Andrews, Josh Allen, Kirk Cousins
I mean Joe Burrow going off in Week 6 (he was the highest scoring player of the Week) was probably an easy call considering he was going back to Louisiana where he dominated as a NCAA player. He predictably had 36 points and 4 touchdowns and basically locked onto JaMarr Chase ensuring that Tee Higgins would only get 4 fantasy points. Sigh. But it will be interesting to see how Burrow goes from here because if he can play like this Aaron has a strong roster to contend with. Congrats to Joe Burrow and Aaron for winning the Week 6 MVP!
Manager of the Week
Hey wait. Is that….. KYLE PITTS’S MUSIC?!?!?!?
Jeff’s national nightmare is over and he has won his first game. And let me tell you boy was it a win. I mean DJ Moore was in a race with Melvin Gordon to see who could be the most ineffective player of Week 6. But Brian Robinson started off strong on Thursday night, Adam Thielen had a red zone touchdown that was a huge play for the week and VZ started a player on BYE and a and Marques Valdez Scantling. So not exactly the Steel Curtain, but hey a win is a win and congrats to Jeff and Jacob for winning the Week 6 Manager of the Week!
Until Week 7…
