The top 5 all-time when it comes to sh*t talking. What makes some one so good at it? For some, it is the sheer confidence that they are going to take care of business. For others, it is delusional confidence. Either way, when you truly believe the nonsense that is about to come out of your mouth - you can say anything you want.
Yes, this is getting written during the SNF game and my phone is blowing up from two fans running their mouth back and forth - annoying? Yes. Respectable? Sure. However, it is much easier to talk trash from the top of the mountain.
Those teams that can talk trash in our league? Cocaine Cowboys. Yes, they have never won the belt - but they just put a beatdown in the Match of the Week. Don't worry, I am not going to sit here and "glaze" this team - there just happens to be another team on top of the mountain. One team, that many doubted - many questioned... "How is this the top team on the D.D.A?"
Welcome to the f*cking show. You want to run your mouth? Come and get us. Yes, I have never won this league (and most likely won't win this year)... but for now I sit atop the mountain with Cocaine Cowboys and I await the next challenger. Why bring this up now? Why bring this up when Nips barely broke 100 points?
Because the team that everyone argued with my about who should be number 1, happen to be the team that now sits 1-3 and failed to do what no one has done yet. Truthfully, if you want to get into the top of the D.D.A. - you gotta do 2 things...
A) Come to draft
B) Stay for the rankings
You don't like it? You can leave.
For now, this is a mountain top made for 2... everyone else can eat a bag of d*cks.
Matchup of the WeekCocaine Cowboys (4-0) v Ertz/Eifert (3-1)
It doesn't hurt when you have the best RB on your team... Bijan Mustard. It also doesn't hurt when your defense scores 20, sure it was against the Browns - but Detroit looks like a true Super Bowl contender with that defense and that is a good thing for Cocaine Cowboys. CC is a team that looks primed for the long run... think about this, they just scored 133 points and that is with a double TE set. On the flip side, Ertz/Eifert was labeled as a team that was a "Pretender" - looks like they lived up to that label. They have pieces to make moves... but the question remains - Do they feel the need to make a move?
Prediction: Cocaine Cowboys... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Cocaine Cowboys... RIGHT!!
Nips and Salsa (4-0) v ARBL (1-3)
You hate to see it, you really hate to see it. ARBL not only loses this week, but Tyreek has a nasty knee injury (on top of Lamar Jackson leaving his game early this week with a hamstring issue). If you missed it...
Prediction: Nips and Salsa... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: ARBL... WRONG!!
Indiana Jones (1-3) v Downs Syndrome (3-1)
Some teams just have all the luck.... Downs Syndrome has Daniels and Evans not play this week and Drake Maye comes in and scores the 2nd highest point total in the entire matchup. I mean, sureeeeeee the bottom half of the lineup looks a little shaky - but hey when you can get nearly 75 points from just 3 guys.... you are sitting pretty. On the flip side, Indiana Jones needs to do something... they need wins and they need them in a hurry. They have pieces to move and bring in more depth and consistency... but is that something they are looking to do?
Prediction: 1st Downs Syndrome... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: 1st Downs Syndrome... RIGHT!!
Bootay Pirates (1-3) v Project Tush Push (2-2)
Hey, look who finally showed up to the NFL - it's Ashton Jeanty! Jeanty finally had his breakout game of the season... albeit still a lose for the Raiders - but Tush Push doesn't care! If the Packers defense doesn't give up 40 points and score -5 points, Tush Push would have broken 130 points this week! On the flip side, Bootay is going to struggle without CeeDee in the lineup - creating a domino effect of having to move players around and constantly filling holes that are never appropriately filled. One team looks good for the future.... one team looks lost... I will let you decide which one is which!
Prediction: Project Tush Push... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Project Tush Push... RIGHT!!
Slender TD's** (2-2) v BEKH (1-3)
You hate to say it, but we gave seen this before from TD's in fantasy. In 2023, they won the belt once and lead the league in scoring through the first 4 weeks. On the plus side, during that year they were able to finish 9-5 and they were able to make the playoffs. Who was on that team? Puka. Who is on this team? Puka. Who is the best WR in football right now? Puka. On the flip side, BEKH had a good week - but it just wasn't enough. They have no real answer for Burrow's injury and this is now a representation of their team - most position scoring well and the QB and kicker dragging them down.
Prediction: Slender TD's.... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Slender TD's... RIGHT!!
2AP (1-3) v The J-Bones* (2-2)
What do you do if you are holding the number pick in fantasy football, he isn't injured, he is getting plenty of playing time - but he isn't scoring due to the ineffectiveness of Bengals offense without Joe Burrow? Do you trade him? Do you hold on to him? The Bengals are a bottom 5 team without Joe Burrow, but 2AP could be a team that could make a run for the playoffs - if they handle the Chase situation correctly. On the flip side, The J-Bones are quickly making a believer out of me. Will they get that type of production out of Hampton every week? Probably not - to be fair though, this happened in a game script that was not specific to running the ball. Knock on wood... The J-Bones might be the only team with 3 legitimate RB's.
Prediction: The J-Bones.... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: The J-Bones... RIGHT!!
Cleveland Streamers (1-3) v AR Finger* (2-2)
Welllll.... it is hard to say it, but Streamers had the highest scoring QB and the highest scoring WR and still found a way to lose. What does that tell you? Everyone else sucked. More than half the points were scored by 2 players... even worse - three players didn't break 5 points and one those players is a long-necked Chargers receiver who suppose to have a big year. What do you do? On the flip side, AR won - but they are going to have to decide who to start? Gainwell scored 30+ points this week, but is that him blowing his load or is that him proving he is worthy of starting?
Prediction: AR Finger... RIGHT!!
Mystery Guest: Cleveland Streamers... WRONG!!
