Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 4 Start and Sit Review
(Coffee wasn’t loaded with fantasy caffeine, but he did the job.) After two straight weeks of tripping over my own suggestions, we finally saw some Start and Sit success in week four. If you check out the week four preview column, hopefully you took heed of some of the suggestions. After going 4-1 in the [...]
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 Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 4: In a slump? A little Coffee can help
Brett Favre and Mark Sanchez further established themselves as, at the very worst, fantasy roster candidates. While normally “sure-fire” performers like Clinton Portis and Thomas Jones bombed. And what was with Willie Parker finally playing well and scoring a touchdown the very week I tell you to sit him? I swear, that guy has it [...]
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. Read on for analysis on Coffee and other risers, as well as some players who are dropping in value, and are strong candidates to also be dropped from your team. Risers [...]
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, [...]
2009 NFL Draft Team Grades – NFC West
We round out our 2009 NFL Draft team grades by taking a look at the NFC West. Last season, the Arizona Cardinals won the West without much of a serious fight from the rest of the division, and they went on to make a surprise run to the Super Bowl. Did the Cardinals make the [...]
2009 NFL Draft Prospect Rankings – Running Backs (4/20)
1. Chris “Beanie” Wells (Ohio State) Has near perfect size and strength, with great vision and a solid burst. Breaks a ton of tackles and runs hard, but doesn’t have elite speed or quickness. Not a very good receiver, and has durability concerns. 2. Knowshon Moreno (Georgia) Very productive runner who has great agility and [...]
Score one for the little guy? Utah proves they’re worthy of the big time
Four years ago, Utah was a team led by a hotshot young coach, with a cute gimmicky offense and a future #1 pick in the shotgun. The Utes rolled through their schedule and slid up the polls through the season, and when all was said and done, they became the first ‘BCS buster.’ The reward [...]
Alabama suspends Outland winner Smith for Sugar Bowl
Nothing like a little bowl season suspension news to spice things up, right? Alabama takes on 12-0 Utah in the Sugar Bowl on Friday, but the Crimson Tide will be taking the field in the Big Easy without one of their biggest players, as award-winning offensive lineman Andre Smith has been suspended for a violation [...]
