NFL Fantasy Report, Week #2: The IF Lists

Hernandez is Out, Welker is BACK BABY!!!!
We can only refer to this week as "The IFS". Since all I heard all weekend was "If only I knew" or "Were is so and so...?"
Fantasy Football League's finished 1-2.
Semi-Serious and casual fantasy football owners are all in shock as the five year string of dominance by the top ten performers at each position came to an early conclusion. In performance drops that usually begin to happen around the time teams are mathematically eliminated from the play offs and contract bonus money is in the bank left all but the most serious fantasy footballers dazed and confused. All the experts said pick this guy or drop that Defense but nobody could predict this last weekend.
My TOP "IF" Lists of the week:
In a week that saw Peyton Manning Intercepted three times in the first quarter, little brother Eli set game scoring records in just the fourth quarter, New England losing to the Arizona Cardinals and RG3 putting out 36 fantasy points while losing there plenty of "IFS".
If you benched Andrew Luck (like I did) that was a major screw up.
If Adrian Peterson was your feature back.
If Hernandez had not gotten injured......
If Mr G made his fifth 40 yard field goal of the game to win it in Foxboro.
If the college trained Replacement Referees could come to an agreement on "Pass Interference", "Game Administration" and "Forward Progress".
If the Packers offense could get back into gear. (Yes, I know they won but it was ugly).
Head Coach Notes:
If the Harbaugh brothers don't start getting some respect.......
If the New Orleans had a Head Coach.......
If Tampa Bay's Head Coach wasn't a giant douche bag then Tom Coughlin would not be pissed.
If Kansas City would just perform to potential.
If Rex Ryan would just go ahead and swap Tebow for Sanchez. He knows he is going to do it and Mark looked like his old, flat, unmotivated self while losing a yawner.
Quarterback Notes:
If Josh Wheedon played that well every game.
If Jay Cutler wants to get his team to hate him don't change a thing about what you do, say or hit.
If RGIII would let someone else run the ball.
If Cam Newton would let someone else run the ball.
If Mike Vick would let someone else run the ball.
NOTE: Guys this is not high school AAAA football. It is OK to hand it off once in awhile. Those guys get payed a whole lot of money to run the ball and the have to feed their families on their performance bonuses. Trust them or you might start getting blindsided by that blitzing linebacker he was supposed to pick up.
NFL League Notes:
If New Orleans Saint Line Backer Vilma would just quit the "Poor Me" circus.
If you don't think the Ref Lock Out is not impacting the pacing and flow of games ask Flacco, Ryan or Cutler.
If the commissioner wants the NFL to grow then give LA, Mexico City, Toronto and London franchises no matter the cost.

All fantasy football team owners should start checking the injury reports, analyze their match ups and check their Waiver wire positions before clicking SUBMIT.
