2020 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 3

There were so many injuries to top players last week. Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey, Giants RB Saquon Barkley, Broncos WR Courtland Sutton & QB Drew Lock and Niners DE Nick Bosa will all miss considerable time. A few of those will miss the entire season due to injuries. The waiver wire will be busy this week.

Colts rookie RB Jonathan Taylor appeared to jump to the top of the depth chart with his breakout performance against the Vikings last week. Can he find the same success against the Jets?

Will we see another breakout game from one of the long list of backups starting this week?

2020 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 2

Since we didn’t have any preseason games, we really had to watch the Week 1 games to really see the rank and file of all the players. We now know where some of these players fall in their teams offensive plans. There are a few former elite players that may find themselves on the waiver wire soon.

There was a game of musical chairs this offseason and there are a ton of new starting quarterbacks around the league.

Can Tampa Bay QB Tom Brady (that’s still strange to type) start the season off strong against New Orleans?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 16

Did you make the Super Bowl in your fantasy playoffs?

You are definitely one lucky guy if you made it to the championship game this season. There have been so many backup QBs and just oddball injuries to star fantasy players.

It’s always fun to go back to your fantasy draft this time of the year and look to see where certain players were drafted. There’s a chance that three or four players on your roster weren’t even drafted at all. It’s definitely been an odd year, but it’s been fun.

Can the Cleveland Browns stop QB Lamar Jackson or will his fantasy owners cruise to a championship?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 12

This is the final week of byes, so we will have a full schedule of sixteen games starting next week.

The Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals and the Los Angeles Chargers are on bye this week. It’s a pretty quarterback-heavy group, so you might be looking for a quarterback to stream this week while your starting QB has the week off.

Some of the top fantasy quarterbacks have tough matchups this week. Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson faces the Rams, New England’s Tom Brady faces the Cowboys and Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers faces the 49ers.

This is the first week of the 2019 NFL season that four teams on a bye.

The Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Indianapolis Colts and the Oakland Raiders are off this week. Those four teams aren’t exactly stocked with huge fantasy studs, but there are enough players off this week that could alter your lineup.

Now that we have a good chunk of games under our belt, there’s more and more information out there to help you make better, more informed decisions to build your lineups.

2018 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 10

There are four teams on bye this week. The Broncos, Vikings, Ravens and the Texans are all off.

You could be in need of replacements for fantasy studs like QB Kirk Cousins, WR DeAndre Hopkins or WR Adam Thielen.

Now that many of your players have dealt with bye weeks, it’s time to look at your roster and trim the fat. There may not be a need to carry two tight ends anymore. You can build your roster towards the fantasy playoffs.

When is your league trade deadline? If it hasn’t passed, you could look to improve your team through late-season trades.

The Oakland Raiders, Pittsburgh Steelers, Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers are all out on bye this week. Your team could be in the market for a number of positions due to those teams being out.

There are still some pretty significant injuries again affecting teams this week. There are a handful of guys that can’t seem to heal from nagging hamstring injuries.

Can the Chicago Bears hang with the New England Patriots?

2017 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Week 16 was a rough one for us. We took a couple risks that didn’t pay off. I honestly thought the Browns would play much better against the Bears and that the Lions would show up to play against the lowly Bengals.

Week 17 is full of landmines since some last-minute changes could mean players end up resting and taking the week off. Keep track of possible playoff outcomes and what their head coaches are saying this week.

Every game this week is on Sunday, so this could be a rare time to completely waste your money and put a few jellybeans on a 16-team parlay…which would have odds somewhere in-between astronomical and impossible. I don’t recommend anyone ever do this unless it’s a gag and is only a few bucks.

We pick ever NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 17 of the 2017 NFL season.

Super Bowl 51 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets

I LOVE prop bets. I actually get more joy out of betting Super Bowl prop bets than betting against the spread. Yes, most are a crap shoot, but with the right research, you can end up winning bets with very favorable odds.

I’m not saying you can research who will win the coin toss, but there are many other player and team prop bets out there that have nice odds.

Some prop bets aren’t worth the money (the vig isn’t worth the slight risk), but sometimes you just have to lay a few bucks down, cross your fingers and wish for the best.

I picked out some of the most popular (and the most absurd) prop bets for Super Bowl 51. We also pick the game against the spread.

2015 NFL Team Preview: Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons come into the 2015 season with new head coach Dan Quinn, who was in charge of the Seattle Seahawks defense for both of their last two Super Bowl appearances. Defense is what Atlanta owner Arthur Blank hopes Quinn brings to the team. They have some weapons on offense, but their defense lacks a playmaker in the middle.

Matt Ryan, Julio Jones and Roddy White can’t do it all for Atlanta. They learned that lesson the last two seasons. They lacked an efficient running back. Their porous offensive line didn’t help either. Atlanta drafted Indiana running back Tevin Coleman and hope he and Devonta Freeman can help keep the safeties in.

The Carolina Panters won the NFC South last year with a losing record. Can Atlanta bounce back and make the division respectable again?

Here is the 2015 NFL team preview for the Atlanta Falcons.

Can the Falcons Make The Playoffs?

The Atlanta Falcons were dealt a huge blow this week. Star receiver Julio Jones was officially ruled out for the rest of the season.

The injury bug has not only bitten the Falcons, but it has nearly devoured their chance to make the playoffs this season. Roddy White and Steven Jackson have both been dealing with their own injuries. It leaves the 100-year old Tony Gonzalez to carry this team offensively.

Matt Ryan has been fortunate to have a consistent running attack with Michael Turner, but he’s no longer on the team. Can he be effective without help in the backfield?

2012 Fantasy Football Rankings: Quarterbacks

Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady or Drew Brees have been the top fantasy quarterback picks over the last few seasons. The 2012 season is no different. The same trio is at the top of the preseason rankings and all of the usual suspects following them.

The quarterback situations in Seattle, Cleveland, Jacksonville, and Tennessee have left some question marks on where the value is at the quarterback position in fantasy football this season. Can you wait to pick a quarterback or will you have to grab one early or spend $45 dollars in an auction draft to have an elite QB.

We have some surprises for you in our quarterback rankings. I am not sold on Cam Newton this year and I love Philip Rivers more than most people. How will the rookie QBs fare this season?

Here is our Top 50 quarterback rankings for the 2012 NFL fantasy football season. Continue reading →
