Thursday Night Opener: The Questions

I talked Redskins/Giants in the Week 1 rankings and I will be providing live commentary (not sure if you call it liveblogging or what) on tonight's first-ever free live-streaming internet broadcast of an NFL game. I'll be doing the same for each NBC broadcast, or at least until they boot me off the job. Come say hi at 7PM. The Football Night in America crew will also be chiming in to the commentary during the game, which should be cool. Very excited to be part of it. (Warning, I think you have to download the new Adobe player to see the video.)

Since the commentary will be football football rather than simply fantasy football, I thought I'd list my biggest fantasy questions (and my guesses at the answeres) heading into the night here.

1. How many carries will Brandon Jacobs get?
My guess: 17-20. Ahmad Bradshaw will be involved, but mostly late and in special situations.

2. Will the Giants run a spread offense often?
My guess: Absolutely. With six decent wideouts and Kevin Boss at tight end, New York is set up to spread Washington's top-heavy secondary out and go vertical more often than they did last season.

3. Can Stephon Heyer handle Justin Tuck?
My guess: That's why he's playing, not Jon Jansen. Just as important, can Chris Samuels stop Mathias Kiwanuka? I expect a lot of max protections, three step drops, and a conservative offense from the Redskins.

4. Does Santana Moss fit the system?
My guess: I would use him as a WR3 this week because he'll see enough targets. It will be interesting to see how he fares catching shorter routes.

Thanks a lot, Tony C ... I think I just pissed myself.

BTW, I hope you didn't hurt yourself tripping over furniture to lung at your computer to ACCEPT the trade offer before it was revoked.

5. Where was Ahmad Bradshaw?

RE: Tatum Bell, that's silly. You're trading for a worthless player who will probably never play again. (See Rotoworld blurb to that effect)

RE: Kitna, thanks for the advice guys. I'm going to go with the spot start. Seems like the highest upside move.

The fact the Tatum Bell thing went over some of these guys heads is high comedy!

He was talking about trading a Pancake Blocks POSTER for Tatum Bell guys... lol
