2014 Reap: Rowdy had a rough 2014 season. At times , Rowdy looks to be putting everything together. At Others Rowdy was just terrible. Was it all Rowdy fault? No. Bad luck was big reason for Rowdy's misfortunes. The lack of speed also was something that was a factor. JGR never true contended in most races because they didn't have the power to stay with the HMS and Penske powered cars.

Strong tracks: Richmond , Bristol and ACS

Weak tracks: Kentucky and Sonoma

Additional info on Rowdy: Rumors are the 2015 cup car drives like the nationwide car. If that the case , this new package just screams Kyle Busch. Of course we won't truly know until February , but Rowdy might be a nice long shot to win it all in 2015. As I expect JGR to be more like 2013 then 2014.

Yahoo Grouping Prediction: B Grouping Tier

Overall Value Prediction: Inconsistency with huge upside

2015 Fantasy Outlook: Honestly I feel like KB will be overlooked early. Mainly because how he struggled in 2014. Realistically I expect a bounce back year for the 18 of Busch. He's in a top ride with a new Crew Chief in Steve Adams. Most of all , Busch too talented not to bounce back from one of worst seasons ever in wins , Top 5 and Top 10s. In 2015 I expect 2-4 wins , 12-15 Top 5s, 18-21 Top 10s , and 1-3 poles.
