I’m in a ten man point per reception league with my friends, and after week one. My record is one and zero. First player is Patrick Mahomes, my Quarterback, Patrick threw for two hundred ninety-one yards, one touchdown and one interception. Mahomes was projected 19.3 fantasy points and he fell short of that with only 15.14 fantasy points.
Starting off with my running back one: Jonathan Taylor. Taylor had 10.8 fantasy points on sixteen touches for forty-eight yards and one touchdown. He fell short of his projection of 16.5 points and he finished as running back thirty on week one. My running back was Kenneth Walker III, Walker had twenty touches for one hundred and three yards and one touchdown. Walker was also involved in the passing game with three targets, two catches, and six receiving yards. Walker was projected 16.1 fantasy points and he did better than his projection with 18.9 fantasy points. Walker got beat up a little bit and exited the game with an abdominal injury late in the second half.
Now onto wide receivers, My wide receiver one last week was Garret Wilson.
Wilson was projected to have 16.5 fantasy points, but Wilson busted with only 12 fantasy points.
Wilson was targeted 11 times with only 6 catches with only 60 yards. Cooper Kupp is wide Receiver two, and Kupp had a monster week. Kupp was projected 14.7 fantasy points, and Kupp boomed with 32.0 Fantasy points.Kupp was targeted 21 times, and came down with 14 of the 21 targets with 110 yards and a touchdown. Kupp finished as the wide receiver 3 this week!
I started Rashee Rice from the Kansas City Chiefs as my flex this week. Rice was projected to have 14.1 fantasy points this week, and finished with 17.3 fantasy points. Rice had 9 targets and 7 receptions for 103 yards. Rice was one of my sleepers going into this year, and my friends called me an idiot but I am proving them wrong.
Onto with the defense and the kicker, I started the Bengals defense. The Bengals projected 7.9 fantasy points and he ended with 4 fantasy points. The Bengals defense gave up 16 points to the Patriots and the defense had 1 sack. My kicker was Cairo Santos, he was projected 7.8 fantasy points. Santos finished with 13.0 fantasy points, and Santos had 3 field goals and 1 extra point.
That is a wrap for team Dipper Kupp Fantasy breakdown week 1. We will see you in week 2.
