NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 9: Keep Eli Manning on the Bench
Last week’s Start/Sit column offered you an average 8-7 record, but also suggested you start Brett Favre, who threw four touchdown passes, and LaDainian Tomlinson, who finally had a big game, and scored two touchdowns. We also wisely suggested you to sit Eli Manning (above), and continue to suggest you to do so. As for [...]
NFL Week Six: Five Things to Watch For
(Can Brandon Marshall and the Broncos stay undefeated?) I’ve been saying it since week one, and the theme of this article (and this season) hasn’t changed: The NFL started with a bang in the off-season with it’s story-lines, and it hasn’t stopped. Brett Favre and Michael Vick were just two of the many interesting stories [...]
Winners and Losers: Matt Gentile’s Week 5 NFL Awards
We all think we’re right. Yes. It’s true. We bloggers, the experts on television and radio, and all the sports writers want to be right. So, we all give predictions before the season. Prior to the NFL season, many of us slighted the Denver Broncos and their head coach Josh McDaniels. Heck, we thought that [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 6: Shockey to break out against old team?
(Wait til’ you see this kid under the lights.) Last week’s Start/Sit column brought you a mediocre 7-8 record out of five starts, five sits, and five sleepers. But week six offers much more promise. Take a look for yourself and see if you don’t find yourself in agreement. As always, mind your bye week [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 14th) Steelers lose Aaron Smith for season, might get back Willie Parker and Troy Polamalu, and more
Pittsburgh Loses DE Aaron Smith For the Season Smith was originally reported to be out for several weeks, but further diagnosis revealed that he would not be able to come back this season from a torn rotator cuff. This put the league’s number two rush defense in a bind, as Smith was a decent ass-rusher [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 3 Review
This was supposed to be the week that the Washington Redskins turned it around. Well, at least in terms of offensive production in the fantasy realms. And for Jason Campbell and Santana Moss, that’s exactly what happened. However, someone forgot to tell Jim Zorn that thousands of fantasy owners around the nation were counting on [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 3: Keeping up with the Joneses
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 game, and it’s also [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 2 Review
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, I’m riding my [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 22): Cowboys RB Barber questionable, Lions LB Sims out indefinitely, Falcons lose DT Jerry for season, and more
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 unlikely the Cowboys [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 2: Big day for Berrian, Flacco to fall flat
There were plenty of huge performances that could have potentially rescued your entire team, despite the countless eggs laid by supposedly “stud” fantasy options. A few of my week one picks made the latter list, so if you haven’t already, hit up my Start and Sit Week 1 Review to get some explanations, as well [...]
