Fantasy Football Preview: NFC Wide Receivers
One of the most difficult things to guess is a team’s starting receiving line-up, especially this early in the season.

Fantasy Football Preview: NFC Quarterbacks
Tony Romo lost his most talented weapon (Terrell Owens) this off-season, and now only has Roy Williams as a reliable receiver target.

Monday NFL Minute: Titans, Bills keep rolling at 4-0, Broncos, Cowboys fall from the ranks of the unbeaten
Sunday was an action-filled day in the NFL. We saw the number of unbeaten teams reduced from six to four, a career day from Brett Favre, a couple of vintage performances, an extension of misery for a few teams, including one (at least) who’ll likely have a new coach in the coming days.
