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.

NFL Fantasy Start and Sit Week 13: Jay Cutler to Rebound Against Rams

We had a rough going in Week 12, missing on start calls for Matt Ryan (injury) and Jason Snelling (Michael Turner returned), while missing on all of our sleeper picks.
