Week 1 Photo Finishes!!

Will Carson Palmer secure a Week 1 win for the league's most handsome GM? Tune in and find out!!

As many of you shuffle home from work tonight, you'll ponder your chances in your fantasy football. Maybe your team is up big, but you face a slew of talented players. Maybe you're hoping for that one last Matt Stover field goal to get your team over the top. Well, ponder no more, leaguemates. Every Monday, I'll break down the post-Sunday action and let you know who's coming out of your game with a W.

Game 1: Mike (Anquan Boldin and a 12.5 point lead) vs. Craig (Alex Smith)

Analysis - I expect the Arizona-San Fran game to be fairly high scoring, and I think the Cardinals' passing attack will benefit from that. With a 12.5 point cushion, Mike should have what it takes to hang on for the win. Good luck staying up until 1:30 to find out, though, Craig.

Game 2: Aaron (Frank Gore and a 2.2 point lead) vs. Rich (Larry Fitzgerald)

Analysis - It's too early in the season to bail on Rich...he's #1 in my power rankings for a reason. After last night's Tony Romo explosion, Rich feels like a team of destiny. Aaron carries the lead into the 4th quarter, but watches it squirt away on a Frank Gore fumble. Rich eeks out a win and stays at #1.

.

Game 3: Hefty (Carson Palmer, Vernon Davis, and a 12.6 point lead) vs. Melvin (Rudi Johnson)

Analysis - I'm expecting the Ravens to stuff Rudi. Palmer could have his troubles as well, but with a 12.6 point lead and Vernon Davis in the late game, I think I'm in pretty good shape here. Hefty gets the win.

.

Game 4: Shawn (Matt Leinart, Willis McGahee, and a 11.9 point lead) vs. Adam (Todd Heap and the Ravens D)

Analysis - The Ravens defense and Todd Heap sound like a potent duo, but you losing this game is the Fantasy Gods' way of showing you how badly you screwed up your draft. Shawn wins handily.

So there you have it. If I didn't preview your game, your fate is sealed. Go in peace.
