Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 14 Fantasy Start/Sit Review

As it turned out last week, Pittsburgh Steelers offensive players were not a “full go”, as out Week 14 Start/Sit column suggested.

After a couple so-so weeks with some hot hits and a few mishaps, we finally ran into a week full of bad start calls. For that I apologize. But, like always, before you “Kill the Messenger” and lose all hope in yours truly, take a step back and see why these picks or suggested sits [...]

NFL Week 3: Five Things to Watch For

The first two weeks of the NFL season have been nothing short of exciting and informative, both from a fantasy and “real-life” spectrum. We’ve seen a ton of close games, prime-time performances worthy of being shown under the lights, and enough stud fantasy production to make us feel “okay” about how we drafted before the [...]
