NFL Quick Hits (October 1): Turf toe troubles Steelers’ Parker, Chargers’ Tomlinson practices, Seahawks’ Hasselbeck likely out for Week 4, and more
Willie Parker “Iffy” With Turf Toe One decent game, and everyone gets up in a whirl over Parker’s foot. While he “seems” to be back on track, this injury could either keep him out of week four, or also slow him down. If he plays, he’s sure to split carries with both Rashard Mendenhall and [...]
NFL Week 3 Fantasy Game-Day Decisions
Randy Moss a Go, Wes Welker a No Just like last week, be sure to get Welker out of your line-up immediately and sub-in either Julian Edelman or another decent option. Jonny Knox or Mario Manningham, or even Kevin Walter could be good plays in place of Welker, as well. Brian Westbrook Out For Philly [...]
NFL Week 3: Five Things to Watch For
The first two weeks of the NFL season have been nothing short of exciting and informative, both from a fantasy and “real-life” spectrum. We’ve seen a ton of close games, prime-time performances worthy of being shown under the lights, and enough stud fantasy production to make us feel “okay” about how we drafted before the [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 26): LT Out, Derrick Ward to Start, and more
Derrick Ward to Start Over Carnell Wiliams This is awesome news for anyone who drafted Ward and was holding out hope that he’d start to get more carries. Congratulations, your wish has been granted. Williams, owners, yours has not. As expected, Cadillac’s knee is acting up again, which doesn’t bode well for the rest of [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 25): Pats’ Welker questionable, Tomlinson sidelined for Week 3, Browns RB Lewis doubtful vs. Ravens, and more
Derrick Ward to Start Over Carnell Williams This is awesome news for anyone who drafted Ward and was holding out hope that he’d start to get more carries. Congratulations, your wish has been granted.

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 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 [...]
Fantasy Risers: Julian Edelman
Eat your heart out, Wes Welker. With the Patriots usual slot-man unexpectedly inactive for Sunday’s match-up with the New York Jets, Tom Brady found himself confiding in a rookie receiver. And I mean really confiding. How’s sixteen targets, for ya? Welker could only salivate over all the possibilities from the sideline. You give Welker 16 [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 12): Seymour to report to Raiders, Pats’ Welker questionable, Chiefs’ Cassel a game-time decision, and more
Richard Seymour to Report to Oakland Despite reports suggesting he wouldn’t be reporting to the Raiders, Seymour will be flying to Oakland to meet with his team and coaches, although he is not expected to suit up in week one. Seymour expressed the move of his family being more important than football, and simply was [...]
