Challenge results

By my scoring I won the challenge 3-4-1 to 1-4-3. I'm counting a "win" as great call, a loss as a bad call and a tie as something in the middle. If you disagree with the scoring I want to hear about it because this certainly wasn't scientific.

Congrats for Mike for having the guts to throw his name in the ring, but in all honesty it wasn't a great week for either of us. For challege rules scroll down to a previous post and get your picks in for next week!

Reader selections (Mike Andrews, Norwich)
(1-4-3)
Studs

*DeShaun Foster – The Panthers running back was more of a "dud," rushing for 59 yards and adding two catches for 20 yards through the air.

*Reggie Williams – Williams didn’t register a catch.

*Jon Kitna – Kitna looked good throwing for 269 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions (and 17 rushing yards).

*Neil Rackers – Rackers finished with nine points on three field goals with the deepest one from 45 yards out. Rackers also missed a field goal.

Results 1-2-1

Duds

*Matt Hasselback – This is a tough one to grade. Hasselbeck was only 7-for-17 before getting hurt, but he did have a touchdown and no interceptions.

*Tom Brady – Brady looked good connecting for 195 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. That’s a solid day for a fantasy quarterback.

*Warrick Dunn – Dunn carried the ball 26 times for 69 yards and a score. Not “dud” worthy.

*Chad Johnson – Johnson was a frequent target Sunday, but he finished with six catches and 73 yards. A decent day, probably not stud or dud worthy.

0-2-2

Expert selections
(3-4-1)
Studs

*Brett Favre – Favre threw for 206 yards and two touchdowns and didn’t throw a pick. The veteran also added 14 yards on the ground.

*Edgerrin James – James continues to disappoint, totaling 34 yards on the ground and one catch for four yards.

*Chad Johnson – Johnson was a frequent target Sunday, but he finished with six catches and 73 yards. A decent day, probably not stud or dud worthy.

*Kevin Jones – I said, “Jones is a must start this week.” And I was right. Jones rushed for 86 yards and tossed in six catches for 59 yards and a touchdown.

Results: 2-1-1

Duds

*Tampa Bay defense – The Bucs actually ended being “studs” thanks to Ronde Barber, who returned two Donovan McNabb interceptions for touchdowns. In my defense, the Bucs defense looked bland otherwise, finishing with one sack and one other interception.

*Reuben Droughns – Droughns had a total of 60 yards and lost a fumble. Definitely a dud.

*Mark Brunell – It was a solid day for Brunell, who tossed two touchdowns and 226 yards.

*Ben Roethlisberger – Big Ben made me look bad, throwing three touchdowns on 238 yards. He did lose a fumble, but who cares when he’s putting up those kinds of numbers. Bad pick.

Results: 1-3
