I'm sure everyone decided to swear off fantasy football at least once during this bizarre week 1. The NFL is full of surprises - like coaches that don't involve their stars in the game plan, touchdown vultureing fullbacks, shutdown corners, and the dreaded injury bug - that haunt fantasy owners throughout every single week. But this isn't the time to panic. Just like with real NFL teams, winning or losing in week 1 does not seal your playoff fate. Let's take what we learned from week 1, apply it accordingly, and make the necessary adjustments to prepare for the upcoming week.
