At this point, you should be starting your studs. We stopped posting all the week-to-week start posts as a result, but I do have a few thoughts to throw out this week with many of you in championship or at least playoff matches. In the Cowboy game tonight, I like Tony Romo and the...
Read more →If you’re in the playoffs, your team should be pretty strong, but injuries and/or a Week 17 championship game might soon leave you hurting for some unlikely names. Backups who haven’t seen any action this season are much more important, and you might find yourself saving your season or winning in Week 17 by...
Read more →You’re obviously starting your studs at this point. For many of you, it’s the playoffs. For others, it’s the last week before the playoffs (and you should hate that your championship game is in Week 17, where anything goes). This week, whether you are in the playoffs are about to be, is a critical...
Read more →There’s no tying in football. None. You only get one sudden death overtime, and if no team can manage to score a single point, you’re done. It’s bad enough that Andy Reid and the Eagles have a hard time managing the clock, but before taking the field to come away even with one of...
Read more →It’s go time. Once again, a ‘$’ marks all of Nick’s locks of the week while a ‘#’ marks all of Chadam’s locks. Thursday Night Football: New York Jets at New England Patriots SPLIT DECISION! Chadam Takes: Jets (+3) over PATRIOTS Nick Takes: PATRIOTS (-3) over Jets In taking the Jets, Chadam says: I’ll...
Read more →Yeah, I said it. Tyler Thigpen. It was popular to hate on him when he first got the start in Kansas City. We all expected Daunte Culpepper to sign with the Chiefs and immediately take Thigpen’s job away. Luckily for Thigpen, Culpepper knew he was going to be able to crush Dan Orlovsky’s thumb...
Read more →Who is the better Manning now? I think Peyton Manning put ex-lax in his brother’s Gatorade this week. It was time to shut up the critics. Peyton gets three touchdowns; Eli gets three picks. At least in fantasy, it looks like Peyton may have reclaimed his top spot on the Manning mantel for now....
Read more →In 2006, I drafted Clinton Portis as my lead running back. I don’t even remember who my second running back was, but, in the late rounds, I picked myself up a rookie with too many names, Maurice Jones-Drew. When Jones-Drew blew up with his big rookie season (1300+ yards and 15 TDs), I thought...
Read more →Chadam and Nick had a rough weekend. Nick was swamped last week trying to put together a fantasy lineup that could stop my crushing force of a team in our shared fantasy football league. Unfortunately for Nick, it looks like his efforts were in vain. Chadam, on the other hand, spent the entire weekend...
Read more →Last week, Nick and I were on fire. We had identical picks for 12 of the 15 games, and in those games, the two of us went 8-3 with one push. Sadly, I lost the three picks on which we disagreed. After a sterling 11-3-1 record in Week 2, Nick is now up by...
