Brian Westbrook to be Released: Where Will He Go?
So much for waiting to see if Brian Westbrook would take a pay-cut and stick with the Philadelphia Eagles. After months of speculation on his future playing career, with or without the Eagles, we at least finally know that Westbrook is no longer going to be playing in Philadelphia. And despite letting go one of [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: Week 13 Fantasy Start/Sit Review
It’s been another mediocre week from out Start/Sit column, but we made enough solid calls that should have helped you win this week. So, give us the benefit of the doubt, take a quick look at a recap on last week’s winners and duds, and then stay tuned for Week 14′s Start and Sit column. [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Dec. 4th): Michael Turner and DeSean Jackson out for Week 13, Kurt Warner questionable, and more
Michael Turner to be Inactive For Week 13 Turner rushed back last week and it got him right back where he was the week before, so the Falcons are doing the right thing by holding him out again. It’s not like there will be a ton of running room against a solid Philadelphia Eagles run [...]
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 [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 12 Review
We had a horrible week with our Start/Sit column in Week 12, and not to make excuses, but injuries to Matt Ryan and Michael Turner (again) played a helping hand in it. While we finished with a less then desirable 5-10 record on the week (counting sleeper picks), we still vouched for Week 12 fantasy [...]
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. [...]
NFL Week 12 Gameday Fantasy/Injury Update: Simms starts in Denver, Atlanta’s Turner sits, Betts starts for ‘Skins
Simms, Not Orton, To Start For Broncos As expected, Chris Simms will start in place of the injured Kyle Orton today when Denver hosts San Diego in their pivotal AFC West clash. Now, unless something has drastically changed from last week to this week, or from the rest of Simms’ NFL career, there’s no reason [...]
Turner needs to shake slow start to boost Falcons’ hopes
Michael Turner has given fantasy owners a weekly boost by scoring at least one touchdown in each of his last five games, but even they have to be disappointed by his overall numbers after Turner ran for 1,699 yards and 17 touchdowns in his first season in Atlanta last year. Turner has seven touchdowns this [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 22nd) Anquan Boldin a game-time decision, Frank Gore back, and more
Cardinals’ Boldin to be Game-Time Decision This is old news, but we’re updating the fantasy twist. Steve Breaston is already a rock solid WR3 in all leagues, but Boldin’s absence or hindered presence makes him a fine WR2, while also elevating the mediocre stock of Jerheme Urban to a solid WR3 play. Frank Gore Fully [...]
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, [...]
