Quote of the day
"There were a lot of pundits and ignorant idiots who thought we were gonna lose this game. Don't doubt us. Did they not see the last time we played this team?" -- Seattle CB Richard Sherman, after a dominating 29-3 win over San Francisco. (The previous meeting was a 42-13 home win in December.)

Daily blurb
A few random observations after the second NFL Sunday:

  • Philly looks like it’s going to score a lot of points this year. But it also looks like a team you are going to want your offensive fantasy players to face.
  • After two weeks, we’ve already had three games delayed by lightning. Doesn’t that seem like a lot? Yet, there hasn’t been a single MLB game postponed since July 25. So the bad weather must be targeting NFL venues.
  • The Redskins have been outscored 50-7 in the first half this year, and their seven points were scored by the defense. RG3 owners are happy that games are 60 minutes long.
  • Buffalo’s offense may not be a woeful as some feared. Of course, it helps that E.J. Manuel has been able to play. When the preseason ended, his availability wasn’t clear.
  • Until Marshawn Lynch scored three TDs on 135 total yards in the late game, James Starks was the top producing running back of the weekend. In three of the four RIFC leagues, Starks is not even rostered. Then again, he appears to have hit the daily double: the primary GB runner went out with a concussion on the opening drive, and the team was facing the Washington defense.
  • All credit to Colin Kaepernick, who honored the commercialized bet with Russell Wilson and shaved an eyebrow.
  • After two weeks, the Super Bowl looks like a matchup between Denver and Seattle. It will be interesting to see how soon that assessment seems to fall apart.
Baseball may have avoided rainouts, but Sunday was an almost total washout for the PGA. GuruGolf won’t be available for final week’s lineup setting until after today’s final round is completed.
