9/14 MON
(7:47amET)
Today:
-- Executive Summary Report day.
Veterans of FFM, you know the drill. Newbies...you’re in for a treat.
This report takes me approx. 12 hours to do...starting Sunday night and all day Monday. It will be done/published...when it’s ready. Probably between 6-8pmET on this first one. I never know how long it takes, how much side research etc., until I get going into it.
It may be the only thing we publish all day. It’s a monster, probably 6-8K+ words of information.
See what THEY say all day...then you’ll see what I have to say later on.
-- After the Executive Summary, I will try to do a small preview of MNF and then it’s actual MNF time to wrap the week.
-- New Rookie Card giveaway...as soon as I get all the Week 1 into Week 2 stuff up and running --then I’ll start announcing winners and the lottery for the first pick, etc. We’ll announce here on RC Notes to start, one per day into the pool then the pool gets to start picking their cards.
-- New Two Scouts Talking YouTube Video today -- scouting Jadarian Price and talking about the Seattle RB situation. Subscribe for free to that channel and you’ll get notified on your devices when the next video hits.

== NEWS & NOTES & Xs ==
-- I’m not going to dive deep into things from Sunday here. There’s too much to analyze and I’m gonna start that with the huge Executive Summary later today. So, below I have a lot of things I found interesting posted in the universe from football Sunday.
I will say two things as a primer...
1) The single highest scoring Week 1 in the history of our tracking, collectively across FFM tracking...in all platforms: Dynasty, Redraft, Best Ball. Some all-time records set for scoring in a week with a few tracking leagues. The win rate was great, but you’d think much higher with the scoring, but scoring was up all over for a week and I don’t know how people found a way to play the high scoring team for their week, but they did.
Don’t lament whether you won or lost--it’s about you actual and potential scoring. I’ll explain deeper on the Executive Report.
2) I kinda killed it betting this week. I new I had this week figured out, in general...felt great about it...but I know there will be weeks I’m lost and sit out or reach. This week...wonderful.
My best bet lost because Houston’s DB dropped the game winning INT. My next 3 best bets hit. Blazing Five is 3-1 going into Denver +3 tonight.
All picks ‘meh’ 7-7-1 going into tonight.
Survivor pick JAX crushed.
Games I bet and won, some weeks ago: NYG, JAX, CHI, SEA (in game)
Lost: HOU
LEFT TO GO: DEN
Bring it home Denver!

== INJURY CENTER ==
-- Not good for AJ Brown: https://x.com/DrJesseMorse/status/2099199901540503740
-- Deepak Chona, MD. SMA @SportMDAnalysis...his takes on Week 1 injuries:
Zay Flowers - Avg = 3-5 wks. Severity TBD but most re-injuries = multi-wk absences. Would be major outlier to play Wk 2
Ladd McConkey - Report suggests possible rib injury. If fractured, avg = 2-3 wks. If not, Wk 2 = possible return
Sam Darnold - Seeking 4 opinions suggests severe injury. Suspect glute tear that he'll try to play thru. Wk 2 = out. Strongly suspect Wk 3 as well. Data = very limited. Lean toward 3-5 wk timeline
De'Zhaun Stribling - Reported 1 month out. Likely to see production hit 1st 3 wks, but less severe than high ankle
Brock Bowers - Reports suggest Wk 2 target. Possible, but data suggest Wk 3 = more likely. Project rapid ramp up ~2 wks
