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 [...]
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. We learned not to trust in Browns players, and that even though a quarterback (Tony Romo) is struggling and going up against a very solid [...]
2010 NFL Draft Prospect: Stanford’s Toby Gerhart
I know what you’re thinking. Anyone who knows anything about Pac-10 football knows Stanford’s Toby Gerhart. He’s not a gem. He’s a force to be reckoned with. Hell, anyone who knows college football knows Gerhart. But even though this may be fairly accurate, his name isn’t littered all over ESPN. He’s not on the covers [...]
NFL Trade Possibilities: Who Needs To Go

Winners and Losers: Matt Gentile’s Week 2 NFL Awards
The theme for week 2 was game-winning drives. Some of the NFL’s top quarterbacks led their teams down field to get the victory in the fourth quarter. Some of the performances were breathtaking. Eli Manning marched the New York Giants’ offense 56 yards down field before allowing Lawrence Tynes to kick the game-winning, 37 yard [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 16): Vick OK’ed to practice, Pats’ Mayo out with sprained MCL, Tomlinson a game-day decision, and more
Michael Vick Taken Off Exempt List, Okay to Practice Jeff Garcia just cried. Now that the Eagles have Donovan McNabb, Kevin Kolb, Garcia, and an active Vick, decision will have to be made. Vick should be ready to go in week three and is a strong candidate for some serious action in Wildcat packages, and [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 11): Steelers beat Titans but lose Polamalu, McFadden named Raiders’ starting RB, and more
Steelers Troy Polamalu Possibly Out With Sprained MCL Coach Mike Tomlin wouldn’t give a definite on the injury or how much time his star saftey would miss, but it’s not looking good. This isn’t good for Pittsburgh, though, as Polamalu was all over the field before the injury, while their pass defense saw a significant [...]
