WHO DAT NEEDS ALL OF THE NATION
Black Cats Claim Trophy in Week 1?

Week 1 in the Subsim Fantasy Football League. First game, first opportunity, and judging by prior commentary, first bold statement of the year. We find out if the defending champions have what it takes, we'll look at the silent threat of the Gunners, and check out if the Cats can defend their pre week one engraving on the Torpedo Bowl

Before we look at anything, let's make sure that look at what's really important to this game.

DONATE TO SUBSIM...AND NOMINATE SUBSIM FANTASY FOOTBALL FOR BEST OF SUBSIM.

Week 1 and if you're based anywhere in the world outside of the continental United States, you're on the road. The first of our two foreign teams on the road from London are Mister Chris and the Helmands Nighthawks traveling the FurBall Path headed to meet the Black Cats. Coach Halo after making the wildest claim of "put our names on the trophy....before the season starts" backed up his claim for the trophy with a Week 1 stamping of assertion. The Cats, carrying less Panthers this year than ever before, began the season riding on the shoulders of Derek Carr (QB). An untried commodity against the once glorious Nighthawk Russell Wilson (QB), Carr was able to throw for over 300 yards and put two of his wide receivers, Jordy Nelson and Kelvin Benjamin into the endzone more times than the Nighthawks.

We always seem to have this same conversation year after year, where the question do the Black Cats have the legs to go all the way. Usually the week after we question them the Cats come out and stomp their opposition, so this year, we're going to put the Black Cats victory down to a well oiled piece of machinery, churning it's way through the league beginning with the surprise demolition of the Helmand Nighthawks. Black Cats win their home opener 122 - 108.

Guns of Hochuli got to stay at home this weekend also based on Coach Thad forgetting the draft. You gotta show up for the draft Thad, or you'll end up picking a defense in the first round. Gunners this years are lead by Big Ben (QB) who return to the team after a few years of some other substandard teams. The Drunk Monkeys are no slouch having drafted the returning from injury Andrew Luck (QB), but they had no help when they started suspended Le'Veon bell (RB). Again, we find ourselves Monday Night Quarterbacking some poor choices. Had Coach Thad chosen a Running Back that had any points, he could have reduced the score line and put himself into the running for a win. No running back, no win, and the Drunk Monkeys fall to the Guns of Hochuli 136 - 149. Gunners get the win and look forward to the Defending Champions the Who dat Nation, to determine if they sit alone at the top of the division after Week 1.

Our Match of the Day, as always for Week 1, features our defending Champions staying at home against a really good team. Somehow a really good team was unavailable and the Australian Taipans were scheduled in their place. The Who Dat Nation was favored by 50 points, it didn't even look like it would be a close game. But it was, Drew Brees (QB) set the tone for the Who Dat Nation by coming out and just lighting up the scoreboard with 44 points. The Nation could have had more points if they hadn't make a rookie mistake in starting Justin Landry (WR) and Seattle (Defense). Fortunately for Coach FuelForBlood, they two didn't cancel each other out. The Taipans however got off to a wild start before the game even started, having to trade out two starters, and then losing two more starters to injury during the game. But they stayed with their game working against the Tide and putting up one of the most recent record losing score. If they had played anyone else, they would have had the W, but instead, fall short late on Monday Night when Todd Gurley (RB) gets shut out. Who Dat Nation opens the season off with a high scoring, but less than convincing win against the Taipans 186 - 163.

So, at the end of week 1, here's how the league looks: half the teams are 1-0, the other half are 0-1.

Next week, we head across the Atlantic to the home of the American British team, the Helmand Nighthawks, as they play the Australian American team, the Taipans in our Match of the Week. The two internationals go head to head, once again, early in the season but this time, both teams are trying to get to 1-1.

Each week, the Associated Subsim Writers (ASW) will nominated their Most Valuable Torpedo (MVT) of the week, the single player who proved decisive in their teams performance.

For the effort of 8 receptions for 126 yards and 2 touchdowns, for a total of 38.6 points (and was still not the highest individual score of the week)

, the Associated Subsim Writers are pleased to present Antonio Brown of the Who Dat Nation, the Week One MVT.
