BQBL: Week 3 Scores

  • Nan: 78
    • Panthers - Cam Newton: 16
    • Jaguars - Blaine Gabbert: 23
    • Chiefs - Matt Cassel: 13
    • Buccaneers - Josh Freeman: 26
He won again? It's kind of not fair that two of his teams played each other on a Slip and Slide...

  • Alison: 53
    • Cowboys - Tony Romo: 20
    • Eagles - Michael Vick: 27, Mike Kafka: 27
    • Browns - Colt McCoy: -2
    • Lions - Matthew Stafford: -19
Eagles and Cowboys turn out to be solid picks. Even if the passer himself has a good week, they get hurt, and have a ton of sportscenter highlights. That's two weeks in a row she's gotten points outside of gameday from the Cowboys - last week for an official vote of confidence from the coach (10 points) and this week for an argument on the sidelines replayed on sportscenter repeatedly (15 points). Mike Vick almost threw his offensive line under the bus (I would have, they're terrible), but instead he put the spotlight on the referees not giving him the 'roughing the passer' calls. Cool your ire, Trent Dilfer, at least he didn't complain about his terrible offensive line or coaching staff, which are the real problems here.
  • Me: 45
    • Redskins - Rex Grossman: 10
    • Bills - Ryan Fitzpatrick: -11
    • 49ers - Alex Smith: 10
    • Bengals - Andy Dalton: 36
You're killing me, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Need I recite your QB history to you? First, you don't need any make-up to play a Geico Cavemen, you've floated around the worst teams in the league as a backup for six or seven years, and you started your career with the Bills throwing more interceptions that touchdowns. I need us to get back to that place, Ryan. Not out-dueling Tom Brady in a massive come-from-behind divisional shootout. I get it, Buffalo needs something to cheer for, those guys seem like nice fans. But that's enough, now. You can go back to being Ryan Fitzpatrick. One more week of this, and I'm going to suspect a "Freaky Friday" body switch between you and Brady. I'm on to you, Ryan Fitzpatrick.
  • Rob: 73
    • Dolphins -Chad Henne: 5
    • Raiders - Jason Campbell: 16
    • Broncos - Kyle Orton: 16
    • Colts - Kerry Collins: 36
Let's talk BQBs. The Raiders. Sixteen points for you this week, after a miserable success story last week.
Jason Campbell is a solid pick in this league. But I'm expecting him to have a breakout game sometime soon.

And the Dolphins?
Somewhat disappointing... but I know things will get worse sooner rather than later. There's talk of Sparano being on the 'hot seat' already.

And the Colts. The news of Peyton being out long-term and Kerry Collin's concussion must be really exciting for you. Have you heard of the supplemental BQBL rules concerning Jamarcus Russell?
Wow, no I had not! That is awesome news! I mean, if they dug out Collins, Russel could be on their radar. It is desperate times in Indy.
  • Xian: 11
    • Texans - Matt Schaub: -9
    • Steelers - Ben Roethisberger: 6
    • Ravens - Joe Flacco: -7
    • Seahawks - Tarvaris Jackson: 21
Even with the extra 10 points from Seattle for a 'vote of confidence' during the week, the Ravens and Texans let Xian down.
  • GOOD QB NPC: 55
    • Patriots - Tom Brady: 37
    • Chargers - Philip Rivers: 22
    • Saints - Drew Brees: -4
    • Packers - Aaron Rodgers: -0
  • MEDIUM QB NPC: 14
    • Giants - Eli Manning: -10
    • Falcons - Matt Ryan: 21
    • Cardinals - Kevin Kolb: 12
    • Jets - Mark Sanchez: -9
  • BAD QB NPC: 45
    • Titans - Matt Hasselbeck: -1
    • Bears - Jay Cutler: 6
    • Vikings - Donovan McNabb: 22
    • Rams - Sam Bradford: 18

WTF, Tom Brady!
