Thoughts on Start Em’ results: I thought I could have done a lot better than 50% correct. Week 1 is unpredictable, like I stated in the Start Em’, Sit Em’ blog. I definitely see room to improve at every position.
Thoughts on Sit Em’ results: I thought I did well besides the Henry pick. I expected the Browns to be better and game script not to be in Henry’s favor. They went up by a lot and leaned heavily on him. The downfall of doing the blog early is the injuries. I wish I picked someone other than Reed as a Sit Em’ tight end. I got 83% right, which I’m content with. #WeAreOnToWeek2 🏈
Random note: Instead of calling it Start Em’, Sit Em’, it will be renamed Sacc’s Starters and sits. In effect week 2.
