Under Fantasy Football Tags: Baltimore Ravens, Brady Quinn, Brandon Jacobs, bruce gradkowski, Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, Cedric Benson, Chad Ochocinco, Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Danny Woodhead, Detroit Lions, Green Bay, Green Bay Packers, Greg Camarillo, Greg Olsen, Jay Cutler, jeremy shockey, Lee Evans, Malcom Floyd, mark sanchez, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, New York Jets, Oakland Raiders, Pittsburgh Steelers, Rashard Mendenhall, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Shonn Greene, Thomas Jones, Tom Brady, Washington Redskins, Willis McGahee

As it turned out last week, Pittsburgh Steelers offensive players were not a "full go", as out Week 14 Start/Sit column suggested. The Cleveland Browns gave most of the Steelers offensive weapons fits, and a poor weather game made for ugly results in a 13-6 Cleveland victory. Which was more unlikely ... Continue Reading

We've had two straight average-to-unsatisfactory weeks of our Start/Sit column, and based on our track record of solid calls and usual winning record in most weeks, quite frankly, we're just getting annoyed. But the playoffs are quickly approaching, and now is not the time to feel sorry, give up, or cry. ... Continue Reading

Michael Turner Returns to Practice Turner returned on a limited basis on Wednesday, but since head coach Mike Smith hasn't given any estimate on when Turner could play in a game, it's a safe bet he won't start this week's game. Jason Snelling looked good last week, and Jerious Norwood is back ... Continue Reading

We had great success in Week 10, making the right call on Brett Favre, Ricky Williams, and nudging you in the right direction on sitting Matt Ryan and Matt Cassel. We also picked some fine sleeper picks, as Matthew Stafford and Josh Freeman dropped in respectable efforts, and Jamaal Charles ... Continue Reading

Week Six brought anyone who took my advice some nice rewards. But before we can dive into preparing for week eight, we need to look back on week seven's picks to see if we saw success for a second consecutive week. Starts: 2-3 Sits: 3-2 (check Chris Cooley) Sleepers: 3-2 (Check Jason Campbell) Overall ... Continue Reading

We had great success in week six, as you can find all about in in the Start/Sit Week Six Review. But now we're onto greater pastures, running high on last week's 12-3 record. Some of the match-ups are difficult to predict, but well do our best to lead you in the ... Continue Reading

The first two weeks of the NFL season have been nothing short of exciting and informative, both from a fantasy and "real-life" spectrum.
