NFL Quick Hits (September 30): Barber in, Jones out vs. Denver, Anderson to start at QB for Browns, Saints OT Brown out for season, and more
Marion Barber Expected to Face Denver Considering how badly he wanted to play on Monday night, this isn’t very surprising. Throw in the fact that Felix Jones is hurt, and it’s downright predictable. ESPN’s Michael Smith reports that Barber may be “eased” back in, and may not actually start Sunday’s contest with the Broncos, but [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 29): Colts’ Freeney out 2-3 weeks, knee to sideline Cowboys RB Jones, San Fran’s Gore out for three weeks, and more
Dwight Freeney Out 2-3 Weeks For Colts Freeney hurt his quad in Sunday night’s win over the Cardinals, and will almost surely miss the next two games, but should make it back for week seven after Indianpolis’s bye. This puts added pressure on Robert Mathis, as the Colts had already been dealing with a slew [...]
Fantasy Football: Week Three Risers and Fallers
(Coffee will benefit from Gore’s absence.) It took one carry to change Glen Coffee’s fortunes, sending him from solid back-up to fantasy riser status.

NFL Quick Hits (September 28): Ankle to sideline 49ers’ Gore?, which Chad will start at QB in Miami?, McNabb back for Eagles after bye, and more
Frank Gore Expected Out For “at least” Two Weeks NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora is reporting that Gore will miss about two weeks with what seems to be a high ankle sprain. There are conflicting reports, but the fact that Gore only had one carry in a very close and heated battle with the Vikings, [...]
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 [...]
Which 10 NFL studs could be the biggest fantasy duds this season?
Like any other writer, I kick myself when I see a writer like Brandon Funston (and other Yahoo! Sports writers) come up with a smartly-themed piece like “10 Players I Hate More Than You”. Not because it’s ingenious or brings in traffic, but more because I love to hate on certain players, and it pains [...]
Who should you take #1 in your fantasy football draft?
So, you’re in one of those last-minute leagues, or the type that waits about a week before the season starts. Good for you. Not just because you had the patience and will-power to keep yourself from joining 15 leagues, but because now you know everything you need to know to draft the best possible team. [...]
Fantasy Football: 15 Players To Draft With Confidence
After going through the top 50 players in the league who provide good potential but give you reason to worry, I decided to put together a smaller list of guys that you shouldn’t think twice about drafting. Drew Brees (pictured) doesn’t even have to be on the list. But a better example there is not. [...]
Five possible destinations for Michael Vick
So the ankle bracelet is now off Michael Vick and teams will start training camp as soon as next week. That doesn’t make it easy for Vick to find a new team. Apparently, he has been staying in-shape despite an 18-month stay in prison and an additional two months under house arrest. Vick has also [...]
Fantasy Football Tier Rankings: Running Backs
As with the receivers and quarterbacks, this list is here to split up the A’s from the B’s, and let you know where to draft guys, roughly. Okay, so Adrian Peterson is your running back with the first pick. That was easy. Hell, Yahoo suggested it, right? But now what? The second round rolls around, [...]
