Peyton Manning was successful as the QB, scoring above projections most weeks. The defense also did well, beating projections most weeks. However, the kicker rarely met projections, and tight end Jared Cook only met projections in two weeks. Running backs Darren McFadden and Maurice Jones-Drew both had only two successful weeks each where they scored above projections, well below their averages. The wide receivers were fairly consistent, usually scoring close to projections led by Demaryius Thomas and Andre Johnson, though Mike Wallace often fell below his projections.

Our QB, Peyton Manning, was successful throughout the season because he was our top scoring player almost every week and 5/10 weeks and one of those weeks was a bye for him he scored a higher amount then the projected points. Out of all of those weeks he came close to the projected points except for only one week. At one point Peyton Manning was one the highest scoring players in all of fantasy. He was very successful week by week and that is the one of the reasons he was kept in throughout our whole fantasy season. Our Kicker, Greg Zuerlein, was unsuccessful throughout our fantasy season because he really did not contribute that much to our teams total points scored. Out of the 10 weeks one including a bye our kicker had, six weeks he did not even come close to the projected points given to him. Only three weeks did he meet the projected points or beat them. Even with this the highest amount he contributed to the team was 10 points other weeks he only had like one, two, or three points contributed. Our Defense, the Denver Broncos, was successful throughout our fantasy season because they did contribute a lot to our teams total points. They beat the projected points almost every week except for four weeks. For a defense it is almost impossible to project what would happen because based on the game anything can happen. This is really good for a defense and for one week to get twenty points is something that you dont see a defense do a lot. Jared Cook, tight end for the St. Louis Rams, did not live up to his expectations for the fantasy league. For each week of fantasy, the actual points he scored were never equal to or higher than the points he was expected to score, except for the first and ninth week. In each of those two weeks he more than doubled what the projected points were. However, in every other week he did not generate the points that were projected. By the stats, Cook was not as successful as he could have been. Player Summaries: Darren McFadden (RB), Maurice Jones-Drew (RB) The two starting running backs for our team were Darren McFadden and Maurice Jones-Drew. While both of these running backs are known to perform at high levels, this season their stats were not quite up to par. Both running backs had unsuccessful seasons. Darren McFadden and Maurice Jones-Drew both had only two successful weeks where they scored more points than they were projected to. The average of both running backs actual points scored were way less than they were projected to. Darren McFadden barely scored over half of what he was projected to, and Maurice Jones-Drew scored a little over a third of what he was projected to score. Not only did these players not meet their own projections, but they also could not outperform the opposing running backs. Each player was outperformed by the opposing running backs by at least double. The running backs throughout the course of the season turned out to be a major weakness for this fantasy team.
Throughout the season, the wide receivers on our fantasy football team were fairly consistent. For the most part, the receivers remained close to their projected scores. Wide receivers one and two, Demaryius Thomas and Andre Johnson carried most of the weight for the wide receivers while wide receiver three, Mike Wallace, usually remained a little below his projected score. For most weeks of the season, all of the wide receivers were a bit under their projected scores week to week. However, our wide receivers, especially Demaryius Thomas and Andre Johnson outscored their opponents more than they themselves were outscored. In general, the wide receivers pulled their own weight for the season, but were not huge factors in winning or losing with the exception of a few big games throughout the season.
