Buffalo Bills Quarterback Watch: Who Is The Starter In 2010?
Buffalo Bills beat writer Sal Maionrana reportedly “agrees” with the Buffalo News that Trent Edwards has a very good chance at returning as the Bills’ starting quarterback in 2010. Considering, at the moment, his main competition is Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brian Brohm, that seems to be a solid prediction. However, there are many reasons why [...]
OC choice important for Bears
Since I live in the Chicagoland area and have been a Bears fan ever since my mother told me stories about Dick Butkus before bed, I try not to write exclusively about them. As a blogger, it’s important to be unbiased and fair, which hopefully is the case whenever you see my rhetoric. However, this [...]
Don’t Blame Josh McDaniels For Denver’s Woes
His tenure started with a bang. Down Goes Cutler, in a way, is what should have rang in the ears of NFL fans everywhere. Of course, you had your Jay Cutler haters, who shrugged off the bold move by new head coach, Josh McDaniels, to challenge the rising superstar quarterback. Bold? Yes, you’d say. Stupid? [...]
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 [...]
Week Eight Fantasy Start/Sit Review: Don’t Kill The Messenger
We nailed it right on the head with Brett Favre, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Miles Austin, giving us a solid record of 8-7 on the week, while struggling with some sleeper picks, and urging you to go the wrong way on Frank Gore and DeAngelo Williams. Start: 4-1 Sit: 2-3 Sleeper: 2-3 Read on for brief [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 8: Brett Favre Returns to Lambeau
Last week was an average week for Start/Sit calls, but we nailed it right on the head with calls in favor of starting Cedric Benson and sitting Rashard Mendenhall. If you’re feeling lost this week and need bye week help or just can’t decide on how to play from your own roster, allow this week’s [...]
Winners and Losers: Matt Gentile’s Week 5 NFL Awards
We all think we’re right. Yes. It’s true. We bloggers, the experts on television and radio, and all the sports writers want to be right. So, we all give predictions before the season. Prior to the NFL season, many of us slighted the Denver Broncos and their head coach Josh McDaniels. Heck, we thought that [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 6: Shockey to break out against old team?
(Wait til’ you see this kid under the lights.) Last week’s Start/Sit column brought you a mediocre 7-8 record out of five starts, five sits, and five sleepers. But week six offers much more promise. Take a look for yourself and see if you don’t find yourself in agreement. As always, mind your bye week [...]
Week Six Fantasy Risers: Wide Receivers
(Edwards should be owned in all leagues.) Week five was a huge week for receivers, as several formerly back-up receivers got a shot at major action and never looked back. After we saw guys like Mike Sims-Walker and Steve Smith step-up in huge ways last week, it was nice to see more young receivers step [...]
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 [...]
