When the dust finally settled on Sunday, my team submitted its document and put up a robust 169.30 points A number that should win just about any matchup. However, the "Vick in A Box" squad is super potent and currently has a total of 137.00 points with Ray Rice playing tonight. The lead is 32.30. The odds are against it, but Ray Rice is capable of achieving that total. It was looking like it was going to be around a 22 point lead late in the AZ/Minn game, but that last 31 yard TD to Percy Harvin gave me an extra 10 points. I found it exceptionally irritating that AZ kept kicking away from Harvin.
Before that last TD, I was lamenting two two things. One that was within my control and one that wasn't. On Tuesday, I had installed Knowshon Moreno as one my RBs. Early Sunday I switched to Jamaal Charles. Moreno scored 2 TDs and produced 7.9 pts more than Charles. It remains to be seen if that decision is going to make the difference. The other was in the Eagle/Falcon game. I played the Eagle D/ST and they had a strong game that included a defensive TD. I also had Tony Gonzales at TE. On the last play of the game, Redmond tries to hit Gonzales in the endzone (on a 1 yard pass), but throws it a little behind him. The ball goes of his hands, hits the defender, and deflects into the hands of Roddy White for a TD with no time left. Instead of getting 10 points for a shutout, the Eagles D/ST gets 6 for allowing 7 points. At least if Gonzales catches the ball, my team gets another 7.1 points. If it hits the ground, my team has 4 more points.
