Tom Brady Named Comeback Player of the Year Brady topped 4,300 passing yards, while throwing 28 touchdowns to just 13 interceptions a year after tearing his ACL. Despite being out for 15 and a half games last season, Brady looked much like his old self, and helped get the Patriots back in ... Continue Reading

Turner needs to shake slow start to boost Falcons’ hopes

Posted By Eddie Griffin On Monday, November 2nd 2009. Under NFL Tags: Atlanta Falcons, Jerious Norwood, Matt Ryan, Michael Turner, NFC South

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. ... Continue Reading

We’re only in Week 8, but you could go as far as saying that the New Orleans Saints could well wrap up the NFC South for all intents and purposes with a win over Atlanta tonight. The 6-0 Saints hold a two-game lead over the 4-2 Falcons coming into ... Continue Reading

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 ... Continue Reading

Houshmandzadeh, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Torry Holt, Washington Redskins

One of the most difficult things to guess is a team's starting receiving line-up, especially this early in the season. Rookies can gain huge strides due to injuries or poor performances from veterans, while lackluster efforts from the corps can cause the front office to panic and sign someone off ...

Up for grabs: Is Plaxico coming to a team near you?

Posted By Matt Gentile On Monday, June 15th 2009. Under NFL Tags: AFC East, Antonio Bryant, Byron Leftwich, Cadillac Williams, Chicago, Chicago Bears, Devin Hester, Earnest Graham, Jay Cutler, Kellen Winslow, Laveranues Coles, mark sanchez, Matt Forte, New York, New York Jets, NFC North, NFC South, Orlando Pace, Plaxico Burress, Rashied Davis, Rex Ryan, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Free agent wide receiver Plaxico Burress should be eligible to play in 2009. On Monday, June 15, his weapons-possession case was adjourned until September 23. Burress, who shot himself in the thigh with an unlicensed gun at a nightclub last November, was charged with criminal possession of a weapon and ... Continue Reading

Fantasy Football Preview: NFC Running Backs

After taking on the task of assessing 2009's quarterbacks situations (AFC/NFC), I began my quest to finish the rest of the offensive positions with the AFC running backs, and continue here with a look to the NFC. As far as fantasy relevance goes, Adrian Peterson and Michael Turner easily top the ... Continue Reading

Tony Romo lost his most talented weapon (Terrell Owens) this off-season, and now only has Roy Williams as a reliable receiver target. However, the word in Dallas is that Owens being gone will lift any distractions from the team, and will have the offense performing more fluidly and in turn, will ... Continue Reading

It's a great debate heading into every season, but generally gets even more interesting after the first 4-6 weeks. Everyone wants to know - is this the year their team's coach gets canned? Well, if your favorite team is Cincinnati or Washington, it's entirely possible. Still, it's a strange marvel when ... Continue Reading
