4-0
Our reader picks this week were excellent. Well, some of them anyways. Mike Andrew was right on with several selections, but others were far less impressive (Chad Johnson). See my picks and the reader’s picks below. This win brings my season record to 4-0 when taking on readers head-to-head. If you think you have what it takes to beat the Coach, submit your “Studs and duds” to my email (tonyfarmer45@yahoo.com) or reply to this entry with your picks, name and town.
Reader picks
Studs
Brian Westbrook – Westbrook had 113 yards rushing and three catches for 37 yards through the air. I’ll be generous and label Westbrook as a stud.
Jon Kitna – Nothing special from Kitna, who threw for 202 yards and had a touchdown, an interception and a fumble lost.
Willie Parker – Great pick. Parker ran his way to 213 yards and two touchdowns.
Roy Williams – Five catches for 81 yards. Certainly not the “stud” material, especially against San Francisco’s weak secondary.
Total: 2-for-4
Duds
Chad Johnson – The worst pick in the history of studs and duds. Johnson had two touchdowns and 260 yards on 11 catches.
Randy Moss – Only one catch for eight yards. Excellent pick.
Reggie Bush – The rookie looked great running for 49 yards and a score while adding seven catches for 40 yards in the passing game.
Rex Grossman – Grossman was more of a stud than a dud (three touchdowns and 246 yards)
Total: 1-for-4.
Expert picks
Studs
Jason Witten – Witten had a decent game for a tight end, but it wasn’t stud worthy (five catches – 58 yards).
Maurice Jones-Drew - Who else is the business predicts that No. 2 running backs will have better days than the No. 1 back on a depth chart? Point, Farmer.
Alex Smith – Smith had no touchdowns or interceptions (one fumble lost) on just 20 attempts. He also ran for 15 yards, but he was no stud.
Matt Leinart – Leinart had 216 yards through the air and a touchdown on the ground, but his two interceptions prevent him from being labeled a “stud.”
Total: 1-for-4.
Duds
Clinton Portis – Before you go saying I got lucky with this pick because Portis got injured, read what I said in Saturday’s paper, “The Redskins’ running back won’t be getting many carries when his team is trailing significantly all game long.” Final score : Eagles 27-3.
Joey Galloway – Five catches for 87 yards and no touchdowns.
Alge Crumpler – Crumpler was hot coming into this weekend, but as I predicted, his streak of solid games ended Sunday.
Chicago defense – When I made this pick, I said that the Bears would have a solid game, but not be as good as what some people expected. I think two sacks, two interceptions and 20 points allowed fits that description.
Total: 4-for-4. (You could argue 3-for-4, but either way it’s a win)
