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 Fantasy Start and Sit Week 12: Ryan Grant to Feast on Detroit Lions
We had a great showing last week, giving you the right calls more often than not, while posting an 11-4 record for Week 11. We suggested that you start Eli Manning and Ricky Williams, two plays that paid off big time, while a few of our sit calls, Carson Palmer, Chad Ochocinco, and Jay Cutler [...]
Fantasy Football Week 10 Start/Sit Review: Don’t Kill the Messenger

NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 10: Back to the Brett Favre Magic
We had a productive Start/Sit column last week, as we took advantage of some “can’t miss” match-ups and suggested some solid starts out of Alex Smith and Ryan Grant, while made quality sleeper predictions by recommending you keep an eye on both Vince Young and Josh Freeman. Every week brings forth another collection of favorable [...]
Week Five Start/Sit Review: Don’t Kill the Messenger
After a couple so-so weeks with some hot hits and a few mishaps, we finally ran into a week full of bad start calls. For that I apologize. But, like always, before you “Kill the Messenger” and lose all hope in yours truly, take a step back and see why these picks or suggested sits [...]
NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 10th) Eli Manning still questionable, Jerricho Cotchery not a lock for Monday Night, and more
(Cotchery’s hamstring could keep him out.) Eli Manning Participates in Saturday Practice This just means he would probably play if he absolutely had to. But since the rush attack is operating smoothly, the defense is competing at an elite level, and they’re facing the Oakland Raiders, there isn’t much sense in rushing Manning back. Still, [...]

Fantasy Football Preview: Tight Ends
With only around five “elite” tight ends in the league, and only another 10 that could be deemed “solid” fantasy starters, it’d be a waste of time to run through two separate conferences. Here at The Red Zone Report, we’re all about delivering fast, accurate knowledge. We don’t beat around the bush. Here’s a quick [...]
2008 NFL Draft Needs: NFC West
The NFC West, at least in its current incarnation, has never produced a Super Bowl champion, and the last team in the division to win the Big Game was the St. Louis Rams in 2000. Needless to say, the division has been fighting for respectability for nearly a decade.
Combine updates: Keller boosts his stock, Dorsey may drop, and more.
Here are a few notes from the first couple of days of the combine. The quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers had their drills today, and there’s a lot to report from those, which we’ll have later on today. But, until then, here are a few morsels to chew on.
