After a thoroughly entertaining week 1 of the NFL season, one can only guess what is in store for week #2.

Some of the craziness from week 1:

• The Buccaneers vs Dolphins game was postponed until later in the year after Hurricane Irma wreaked havoc on Florida
• Kareem Hunt scored 45 points in Fantasy in his first game (nice pickup @paradise-found)
• The Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots collapsed in the 4th quarter in their loss against the Chiefs
• Alex Smith, Sam Bradford, and Matthew Stafford were among the most impressive quarterbacks in Week 1.

Matchups for Week 2

Preview of the Week

@nikethemutt (0-1) vs Jupiter Explosion @breakthrough (0-1)

This intra-divisional matchup features two 0-1 teams that are both extremely talented. @nikethemutt relied heavily on LeSeasn "Shady" McCoy in Week 1 and he came through with a 20 point performance. I expect another monster week for the Buffalo Running Back. The X-factor for @nikethemutt is Martavis Bryant who was disappointing in Week 1 after only scoring 3.4 points. If he can have a good week, @nikethemutt has a great shot at victory. Jupiter Explosion @breakthrough dealt with the Odell Beckham Jr. "OBJ" and Adrian Peterson sagas last week. OBJ did not play with an ankle injury and Adrian Peterson only ran for 18 yards against the Vikings. If these two guys can have strong weeks, Jupiter Explosion @breakthrough might pull out the victory.

Prediction: @nikethemutt 134.50 | Jupiter Explosion @breakthrough 129.36

@paradise-found (0-1) vs Nic Nasty @nicnas (1-0)

This intra-divisional matchup is the showdown of the running backs. @paradise-found has arguably the best running back in the league in Le'Veon Bell, who underwhelmed many in week 1, but I expect a major bounce this week and it will be interesting to see how defenses game plan to stop Kareem Hunt after the masterful performance he put on in week 1. If this pair of running backs put on a show, @paradise-found will be sitting mighty pretty after week 2. The Nic Nasty @nicnas (1-0) running back duo of Ezekiel Elliot and Isaiah Crowell are going up against two historically good defenses in the Broncos and Ravens respectively. In this game, the X-factor is no doubt Stefon Diggs. If he has a similar performance as he delivered in week 1 expect Nic Nasty @nicnas to remain undefeated.

Prediction: @paradise-found 145.74 | Nic Nasty @nicnas 135.97

Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 (1-0) vs @sevinwilson (1-0)

This matchup features one of the two games with two undefeated teams. Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 maximized his week 1 performance with Sam Bradford throwing darts like he used to against those Big 12 defenses. This week should be a tougher as his Vikings take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Golden Tate was not injured before the start of his week 1 game, and contributed 21.40 points, but he's listed as questionable in week 2 due to an injured finger , which might severely limit his fantasy production for Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91. If Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 can amass impressive fantasy numbers from Sam Bradford and Golden Tate, the underdog may be able to pull out the victory. @sevinwilson has two possible breakout stars at running back, but don't let their week 1 performances get you too excited as consistency is key in fantasy football. The X-factor in this game is not on either team, but is the quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, Matt Ryan. Both Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 and @sevinwilson have a wide receiver on the Falcons and whichever receiver Mohamed Sanu for Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 or Julio Jones for @sevinwilson has the better game may be the difference maker in this matchup.

Prediction: Corn Cobb Pipe @mstodola91 93.47 | @sevinwilson 142.03

Harambes Revenge @kryptocek (1-0) vs @mikeshuh (1-0)

This matchup features the other of the two weekly games with two undefeated teams. Harambes Revenge @kryptocek (1-0) is starting Jameis Winston at quarterback after the Buccaneers/Dolphins game was cancelled week 1. I expect Jameis to have a solid game against the Bears secondary. It will be interesting to see how Tyreek Hill performs for the Kansas City Chiefs after his electrifying performance in week 1 where the speedster shredded the Patriots for 133 yards and 1 TD. The quarterback for @mikeshuh, Aaron Rodgers, had a slightly underwhelming week 1 performance against the Seahawks even though he scored 16.5 points. Aaron Rodgers was the preseason MVP by many, so lets see if he gets back on track this week against the Atlanta Falcons. Tarik Cohen, the rookie running back for the Chicago Bears, surprised many with his dual threat ability out of the backfield as he gashed the Falcons. If Tarik Cohen can have a repeat performance, look for @mikeshuh to pull out the weekly win.

Prediction: Harambes Revenge @kryptocek 133.97 | @mikeshuh 143.98

@Shenanigator (0-1) vs Gators @tom74 (0-1)

This is a pivotal week for these two teams as both are currently 0-1. @Shenanigator had a disappointing week 1 performance from his wide receiving core except for Antonio Brown as he outscored the combination of Dez Bryant, Allen Robinson, and Kevin White 29 to 12. If Randall Cobb has another impressive performance for the Packers, it appears likely he will pull out the victory in week 2. On the other hand, Matt Ryan cannot wait to play the Packers defense in week 2 for Gators @tom74. If Bennie Fowler can score another two touchdowns this week against the Cowboys, it's possible he can pull the upset. Otherwise, John Brown and Robby Anderson need to have big weeks for Gators @tom74 to pull out a victory.

Prediction: @Shenanigator 145.42 | @Gators @tom74 124.76

A team has no name @boatsports90 (1-0) vs Rico's Raiders @richq11 (0-1)

Two young running backs square off in this matchup of intra-divisional rivals. Melvin Gordon from A team has no name @boatsports90 will carry the load for the Chargers against the Dolphins in week 1 after his 18 point performance against a tough Broncos defense. There may be no better young receiver in the league than Amari Cooper and if A team has no name @boatsports90 can get another solid performance from this budding star, look for him to stay undefeated. Devonta Freeman from Rico's Raiders @richq11 splits carries with Tevin Coleman on the Falcons, but this has not stopped his fantasy production as he scored another touchdown in week 1. There was no player to come out of nowhere like Austin Hooper did for the Falcons last week and if he has another outburst similar to that in week 1 look for Rico's Raiders @richq11 to escape with the victory and get back to .500 on the year.

Prediction: A team has no name @boatsports90 143.01 | @Rico's Raiders @richq11 131.38
