This was a deflating start to the season. LT pulled it together for 17 (though that really doesn’t compare with some of last year’s numbers), and Marion Barber was decent. The Patriots D and the kicker contributed some. But my #2 draft pick Drew Brees just gained and lost the same three points over and over, my wide receivers didn’t do anything, and my bench doesn’t give me hope for next week. Eric played a Seattle trio of Shaun Alexander (my disasterous first pick last year), Maurice Morris, and DJ Hackett (who wasn’t even playing due to injury), and beat me 68-50. On the plus side, things have to improve next week?
