We backed up two straight solid weeks of gutsy start and sit calls with another batch of sensational recommendations.

NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 4: In a slump? A little Coffee can help

Brett Favre and Mark Sanchez further established themselves as, at the very worst, fantasy roster candidates. While normally “sure-fire” performers like Clinton Portis and Thomas Jones bombed.
