Fantasy Football Quick Hit: Marion Barber Out for Monday Night
There have been conflicting reports on Barber’s status all week long, but even the Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones, is finally admitting that Barber is doubtful for the prime-time game. The Dallas Morning News is reporting that the Cowboys are playing it “conservative” with Barber, most likely because they have two quality back-ups ready to step-up [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 24): Heavy dose of Vick on Sunday, Pats’ Welker practices, Cowboys owner Jones behind Romo, and more
Michael Vick to Play For Eagles on Sunday Don’t get too excited, it won’t be as the quarterback. Still, the coaching staff is counting on Vick to make plays, projecting him to be involved in somewhere between 10-15 plays. You can probably even count on more than that. Kevin Kolb is expected to start as [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 23): Cowboys’ Barber hopes to play Monday night, Seahawks not sweating on Hasselbeck, Pats’ Welker still sitting out, and more
Marion Barber Still Hoping to Play Under the Lights Despite reports stating that Barber will be shut down for at least the next 1-2 weeks, Barber himself is expressing his desire to push through the pain and play against the Panthers. This might just show the rest of the league how bad Carolina’s run defense [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 22): Cowboys RB Barber questionable, Lions LB Sims out indefinitely, Falcons lose DT Jerry for season, and more
Marion Barber Questionable For Week Three Updating earlier reports that Barber would get an MRI on an apparent quad injury, a report has surfaced that Barber is “50-50″ on whether he will play against the Carolina Panthers on Monday night. It’s a quad strain, and with great depth at the position, it’s unlikely the Cowboys [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 21): McNabb doubtful for Week 3, Hasselbeck fractures rib, Jaguars lose WR Williamson for season, and more
Lions Stand Behind Matthew Stafford Despite five interceptions and only one touchdown in his first two games as the starter, Stafford still has Jim Schwartz’s full support. After Sunday’s loss against Minnesota, Schwartz snuffed out any doubt, saying Stafford “is our quarterback”. As if they’d really crush the kid’s confidence and turn to the equally [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 9): Broncos’ Marshall and Moreno ready for opener, Texans’ Walter questionable, Bills waive LT Walker, and more
Brandon Marshall Reportedly Ready For Week One Considering he hasn’t even learned half of Josh McDaniel’s playbook, one has to wonder how “ready” Marshall truly is. Reports have McDaniels saying Marshall has been “great” since returning from his team-given suspension, and that he is likely to have some sort of a role in Denver’s opener [...]
Five Things To Watch For: Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys were supposed to be “America’s Team” again. They were fresh off of an impressive 13-3 record and an NFC East title. They were Super Bowl contenders, and at the very least, playoff guarantees. Well, one broken pinkie later, and all that 2007 created in Dallas was ruined. Fast forward to the off-season, and [...]
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, [...]
Best in the NFL? Look no further than the NFC East
I’m waiting until after at least next week to start any sort of NFL power rankings, simply because I wanted to see how everyone did in the first month or so of the season before really making any judgments one way or another as to who the best of the best is. I considered waiting [...]
Seahawks nab Jones, Cowboys fans don’t care
The Seattle Seahawks have agreed in principle with free agent running back Julius Jones. Jones agreed to a 4-year deal worth 12 million dollars. It looks like he will once again provide the lightning to someone else’s thunder, as Jones will be splitting carries in his new gig too, with big-bodied free agent running back T.J. Duckett being [...]
