2010 NFL Week 8 Fantasy Football Start/Sit: Who to Sit – Running Backs
After reviewing which signal-callers to sit in Week 8, here’s our look at which running backs fantasy owners should shy away from this week, at least in my opinion. Sit RB Cedric Benson, Cincinnati Bengals: Benson has found the end zone only three times thus far this season (twice rushing, once receiving), has topped 100 [...]
AFC Wild Card Preview: Cincinnati Bengals vs. New York Jets
The Jets laid a 37-0 whooping on the Bengals to seal their place in the postseason, but can they make it two in two weeks? The motivation and the confidence will certainly be there for the Jets, who more than took advantage of the opening that the Colts gave them in Week 16 (not to [...]
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. 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 heading into that game; [...]
NFL Fantasy Start and Sit Week 14: Pittsburgh Steelers Are “All Go”
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. Read on for our [...]

Matt Ryan “Day to Day” With Sprained Toe Ryan sprained his toe early in Atlanta’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and ended up missing the rest of the game.

NFL Quick Hits (Nov. 27th): Big Ben questionable for Sunday, Cedric Benson’s status still uncertain, and more
Big Ben Considering Sitting Out Sunday’s Game Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is contemplating sitting out Pittsburgh’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, despite being cleared to play and practicing all week. Roethlisberger is just taking the necessary precautions, and considering the bad luck Brian Westbrook and Clinton Portis are having this year with head injuries, he’s [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Nov. 25th) Michael Turner practicing, Matthew Stafford doubtful, Kurt Warner to face Titans, and more
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 to practicing fully. [...]
Kevin Roberts’ NFL Power Rankings Week 9: Saints Still on Top
While the Minnesota Vikings certainly impressed with a 38-26 win against Green Bay in Lambeau Field, the fall of the previously undefeated Denver Broncos has now left just two unbeaten teams remaining in the league. The Indianapolis Colts eeked past the San Francisco 49ers, 18-14, while the New Orleans Saints survived a late onside-kick and [...]
Winners and Losers: Matt Gentile’s Week Seven NFL Awards
Is this the year the New Orleans Saints get back to the post season? Well, they’re undefeated through six games. So, it looks like they’ll make it there. For the past two seasons, head coach Sean Payton and quarterback Drew Brees have created one of the league’s most dominant passing attacks. But the two things [...]
Kevin Roberts’ NFL Week 8 Power Rankings
(The idle Broncos lose their top spot) The unofficial “best team in the league”, the Denver Broncos, sat out week seven’s exciting action, and despite their solid play through a 6-0 record, they won’t be able to hold onto their top spot. If they weren’t already the team to beat in the NFL, the New [...]
