The theme for week 2 was game-winning drives. Some of the NFL's top quarterbacks led their teams down field to get the victory in the fourth quarter.
Some of the performances were breathtaking. Eli Manning marched the New York Giants' offense 56 yards down field before allowing Lawrence Tynes to kick ... Continue Reading

Under NFL Tags: Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Felix Jones, Jamal Lewis, Jerry Jones, Kevin Kolb, Lynell Hamilton, Marion Barber, Michael Vick, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, Nick Hardwick, Philadelphia Eagles, San Diego Chargers, Tony Romo, Wes Welker
Michael Vick to Play For Eagles on Sunday
Don't get too excited, it won't be as the quarterback.
Still, the coaching staff is counting on Vick to make plays, projecting him to be involved in somewhere between 10-15 plays.
You can probably even count on more than that. Kevin Kolb is expected to ... Continue Reading

Marion Barber Still Hoping to Play Under the Lights
Despite reports stating that Barber will be shut down for at least the next 1-2 weeks, Barber himself is expressing his desire to push through the pain and play against the Panthers.
This might just show the rest of the league how bad ... Continue Reading
Favre playing better than credited for
Posted By Kevin Roberts On Wednesday, September 23rd 2009. Under NFL Tags: Brett Favre, Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings, NFC North
No thanks, Adrian Peterson. Brett Favre had this one.
Favre may still not own a 200+ yard passing day as a Viking, but no one ever said winning games had to or would come by launching 50-yard passes.
Favre can't face the 2007 Denver Broncos in overtime every week. But then again, ... Continue Reading
Just another Florida-Tennessee weekend
Posted By Chris Humpherys On Tuesday, September 22nd 2009. Under NCAA Football Tags: Eric Berry, Florida Gators, Lane Kiffin, Tim Tebow, Urban Meyer
The road trip to Gainesville had been planned for months.
Just as both Florida and Tennessee had earmarked September 19 on their calendar, my friends and I had done so as well. Although we didn’t have Lane Kiffin’s off-season comments posted as bulletin board material, some of us did have our own ... Continue Reading

Under Fantasy Football Tags: Aaron Rodgers, Baltimore Ravens, brandon marshall, Clinton Portis, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Felix Jones, Green Bay Packers, Julius Jones, Kevin Kolb, Mario Manningham, Matthew Stafford, Minnesota Vikings, Nate Burleson, New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, New York Jets, Percy Harvin, Peyton Hillis, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, Ray Rice, Reggie Bush, Seattle Seahawks, Thomas Jones, Washington Redskins, Willie Parker
After a rough week two of bad calls and poor suggestions, I vow to bring you the best 15 plays, and at the very worst, to come out of week three with a winning record.
It's always tough to gauge if/when guys like Donovan McNabb and Matt Hasselbeck will last the ... Continue Reading
Kevin Roberts’ 2009 NFL Power Rankings: Week 3
Posted By Kevin Roberts On Tuesday, September 22nd 2009. Under NFL Tags: Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars, Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, New York Jets, Oakland Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Diego Chargers, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tennessee Titans, Washington Redskins
Eli Manning is starting to look like his brother, while his brother Peyton finally is starting to look like, well, himself.
Both the Colts and Giants have it "going on" on offense, but it's their defense that has both teams in the top five, and the Giants in the top spot.
Julian ... Continue Reading
Don’t Kill the Messenger: NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 2 Review
Posted By Kevin Roberts On Tuesday, September 22nd 2009. Under Fantasy Football Tags: Arizona Cardinals, Austin Collie, Baltimore Ravens, Bernard Berrian, brandon marshall, Carolina Panthers, Cedric Benson, Chicago Bears, Chris "Beanie" Wells, Chris Wells, Cincinnati Bengals, Darren Sproles, DeAngelo Williams, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Eddie Royal, Greg Olsen, Indianapolis Colts, Joe Flacco, Kansas City Chiefs, Kevin Smith, Knowshon Moreno, Kyle Orton, LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Louis Murphy, Minnesota Vikings, Oakland Raiders, Pierre Garcon, San Diego Chargers, Santana Moss, Todd Heap, Washington Redskins
I've seen and heard some bad calls in my day, but this past week of poor calls (by me, I must admit) bordered on absurd.
There, I said it. I didn't see some strong fantasy plays coming, and I suggested you to sit some others that put up some hefty performances.
Still, ... Continue Reading

Marion Barber Questionable For Week Three
Updating earlier reports that Barber would get an MRI on an apparent quad injury, a report has surfaced that Barber is "50-50" on whether he will play against the Carolina Panthers on Monday night.
It's a quad strain, and with great depth at the position, it's ... Continue Reading
NFL Quick Hits (September 21): McNabb doubtful for Week 3, Hasselbeck fractures rib, Jaguars lose WR Williamson for season, and more

Under Fantasy Football, NFL Tags: Dallas Cowboys, Detroit Lions, Donovan McNabb, Jacksonville Jaguars, Julian Edelman, Kevin Kolb, Marion Barber, Matt Hasselbeck, Matthew Stafford, New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles, Seattle Seahawks, Troy Williamson, Wes Welker
Lions Stand Behind Matthew Stafford
Despite five interceptions and only one touchdown in his first two games as the starter, Stafford still has Jim Schwartz's full support.
After Sunday's loss against Minnesota, Schwartz snuffed out any doubt, saying Stafford "is our quarterback".
As if they'd really crush the kid's confidence and turn to ... Continue Reading
