The bye weeks are upon us, so most teams are going to have to go to their bench for the next 10 weeks or so. All of this week's match-ups can be considered toss-ups, but the results should help further define the haves and the have nots. Therefore, this week's rankings except for the very top and very bottom may be debatable. Also, unfortunately this week, no photos to accompany the rankings, as there was only one positive feedback for all that work.
1. Victor - Escaped with a narrow victory thanks to Peyton. However, can't win by Peyton alone, needs help with DST FA pickup Colts. Let's see, look who returns this week to face the Colts? Why, it's Blaine Gabbert, who you have to scroll to the end of all QB stats since he has -3 points Year-to-Date.
2. Donny - Two straight 80+ point performances justify the #2 spot. I still think this team has the best-balanced roster, especially with judicious FA pickups Julian Thomas and KC Defense, along with rookie-of-the-year Gio Bernard. Takes a hit this week with Cam on bye.
3. Katy - Unlike past years, Katy has accumulated some depth in her roster. With Steven Jackson injured, putting in BGE who can get a goal-line TD or two means the drop-off is shallow. Also has #1 troll-move of the week: Sitting Mike Vick and starting Tony Romo vs. Hai.
4. Kevin - While three games do not make a trend, dropping about 10 points each week is a bit disturbing. Andrew Luck does have a juicy matchup versus Jacksonville, but Kevin's strength, his WRs, face tough matchups this week as well. Hey wait a minute! Did I just rank 3 Asian teams before putting up a Caucasian team? Yes, I did. Asians are 3-0 versus Caucasian teams this year. That is a disturbing sign for the Caucasians.
5. Bill - Despite 1-2 record, has scored more than 80 points in two of his games. Has favorable matchup versus Lily this week. Also, Bill is either ranked #5 or #4 in ALL categories when you look at the game previews.
6. Tuna - LeSean McCoy is carrying Tuna. Matt Ryan isn't the fantasy monster he was last year, with Roddy White injured and Tony Gonzalez showing his age. Boom-or-bust roster players means Tuna can get high score of the week a couple of timed, but it looks like a 7-7 plus-minus one win record for him.
7. Andrew - Big drop from #2 in part due to Aaron Rodgers and two other starters being on bye this week. As of 5 PM, still hasn't put in backup QB Bradford who's playing tonight. Maybe a sign we're going to get Apathetic Andrew instead of Alert Andrew this year.
8. PJ - After scoring 95 points in week 1, has drastically fallen in scoring, averaging about 50 points only for the next two games. The culprit? Being dead last in managerial efficiency. Starting Eli Manning over Tom Brady will do that for you.
9. Hai - Wow, busts on three of four keepers so far this year. However, pundits insist on patience with Spiller and Kaepernick. If they remain busts, expect Hai to resign as GM and let his wife take over. If they turn things around, Hai has a relatively easy schedule for the last 5 games of the season, which can help build momentum for the playoffs.
10. Lily - Being 0-3 and yet not taking advantage of waiver wire priority in the last 2 weeks? That's a Katy move. If PJ wasn't so busy with his new baby, I'm sure we'd see calls for Lily's banishment on the 1st and 11 columns.
