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 the street, or even try to pull a trade. There are a lot of questions regarding Plaxico Burress, Matt Jones, Marvin Harrison, and now even Brandon Marshall. With the AFC out of ...Read More

The running back position has been covered. Now to the prima donnas, the popcorn, and the drama. Or should I say, the gun-hoarding, gold grill flashing, girlfriend abusing, fantasy all-stars? At this point, yes, I could say that. But it's June, it's warm out, and I'm feeling good about most of the top receivers in this league, even if they are in legal trouble and flirting with costing themselves 3-4 games in 2009. Regardless, if they made the list, they're probably worth taking ...Read More

Earlier, we gave the first half of our NFL head coach rankings, giving our take on the 16 'worst' head coaches in the NFL. Several of those coaches in the bottom 16 could see themselves in the top 16 in a few years' time with a few successful seasons, and all the same, some of the coaches in our top 16 could land in the bottom 16 (or out of a job) Then, there are those coaches won't be ...Read More

New England Patriots (From Kansas City) - Louis Delmas, S, Western Michigan It's time for New England to find a quality replacement for Rodney Harrison. Delmas is the best safety ...Read More

There are two ways you can look at the number of candidates that there are for this season’s NFL MVP. On one hand, the optimistic fan or voter could say that there have been so many excellent performers that it’s too hard to single out that one deserving player. On the other hand, many can say that there have been many good performers, but that no one had a ‘great’ season. Last season, it was pretty cut ...Read More

There are a couple major things that can be taken from the New York Jets’ thrilling 34-31 overtime win at New England last night. The first for many is likely whether or not the Jets are now the team to beat in an AFC East that has been a lot more competitive than anyone would‘ve expected in the preseason. It’s hard to argue against it right now, certainly. The Jets are 3-1 against their division foes, with all ...Read More

Opening week has come to a close, and it surely rocked the entire foundation of the league in many ways. Reigning MVP Tom Brady suffered a season-ending knee injury, Brett Favre got a "W" for the Jets and NOT the Packers, the Bears upset the Colts on Sunday Night Football, giving them their first opening day lose since 2004, and Aaron Rodgers got his first win as a starter against the Vikings. This is the first of 17 blogs that will ...Read More

So, the almost unthinkable has happened, and Superman reigning MVP Tom Brady may be out for the season with a torn ACL that he received in the first quarter of New England's 17-10 win over Kansas City. Whether or not you think that Kansas City safety Bernard Pollard’s low hit on Brady was right or wrong, those hits are a recipe for disaster, and that’s exactly what happened. And everyone who’s a fan of one of the other ...Read More

The NFL season is still nearly four months away, but fantasy football enthusiasts are no doubt thinking ahead and strategizing.

Fantasy content will become a regular part of The Red Zone Report, and I thought what better to kick it off than to give my fantasy top 10 for the 2008 season. All ...Read More
