Predicting the Future: 2013 Week 1 Fantasy Impact


Posted by Chad Scott on 19 Apr 2013 / 0 Comment



We’re starved for football. Well, at least any kind of football that doesn’t involve a soccer ball.  My hunger for the NFL is peaking.  The draft is quickly coming upon us, then OTAs and then the pre-season. But it’s simply not enough. The 2013 NFL schedule was announced last night. It was kind of like [...]

The Fantasy Football Walking Dead


Posted by Chad Scott on 07 Feb 2013 / 2 Comments



Sundays will never be the same. That is, of course, until next football season. During football season, Sundays are my favorite day of the week. You see, writing about fantasy football doesn’t exactly pay the bills around the house (or even the gas in my car). I, too, have a day job that I hate. [...]

There’s No “I” in Fantasy Football: It’s Time to Be Rational


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 21 Jan 2013 / 3 Comments



As Joe Flacco threw his third touchdown against the Patriots, the single thought that rushed through my head was, “Here we go again.” I mentioned (well, it was more than just a mention) last week that I have this unreasonable disgust for the Ravens quarterback. I’ve never called him “bad” at the quarterback position, but [...]

Whether your fantasy team is decimated by injuries or you’re looking to lock down that elusive playoff berth, the waiver wire can make or break your fantasy season. In years past, players have risen out of the abyss to settle all of your fantasy worries. This year was no different. The following is a list [...]

Reaction Monday: When It All Goes Wrong


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 17 Dec 2012 / 0 Comment



I received a tweet during the late-afternoon games that made me realize my fantasy football playoff situation really wasn’t all that awful.  From  @benjam227, a follower of mine, it read “Got killed today no thanks to Eli, Martin, D. Alexander, Myers & the Lions.” They combined to score 1 point in that particular league. I [...]

Reaction Monday: A Week of Bad Beats


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 11 Dec 2012 / 0 Comment



The unfortunate part of single-elimination playoff games is that plenty of people get – to be blunt – screwed. Did you face Seattle’s defense yesterday?  Good luck making up that 35-point defense differential. How about Cam Newton? Yikes. For those on the wrong side of a playoff matchup due to these insane occurrences, it’s a [...]

Fantasy Football Aside, RGIII is the Best Offensive Rookie


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 08 Dec 2012 / 0 Comment



I know this is a fantasy football blog, but you can’t play the pretend game without its football core. And the sport– through the media and other outlets – has this bizarre debate being talked about to near exhaustion: Just who is the NFL’s best offensive rookie? The debate differs completely when analyzed from a [...]

Reaction Monday: Who Needs an Elite Quarterback?


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 03 Dec 2012 / 0 Comment



When you draft your fantasy team in mid-August, there’s little reason for you to stare down and analyze the Week 13 schedule. After all, who would’ve thought the Dolphins would be decent, the Rams would be competitive against the 49ers and Charlie Batch would be starting at quarterback for the Steelers? No, you’re not drafting [...]

Reaction Monday: I Just Fumbled This Blog Entry


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 27 Nov 2012 / 0 Comment



Some people think the end of the world is next month. For Steeler fans, including myself, the end of the world already happened. We’re just now in some purgatory-like place. Turning the ball over eight times to the Cleveland Browns is nothing short of embarrassing. Sure, the Browns defense has been playing much better over [...]

Reaction Monday: What Did I Just Witness?


Posted by JJ Zachariason on 19 Nov 2012 / 1 Comment



No strategy would have helped you win your Week 11 matchup. Unless, of course, you used reverse logic. While we did see typical stars like Andre Johnson, Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski and Calvin Johnson perform exceptionally well, we also noticed some newcomers to the top of the weekly rankings. Marcel Reece, for instance, gathered 193 [...]

Quarterback Injuries Have Rippling Effects


Posted by Austan Kas on 16 Nov 2012 / 0 Comment



Week 10 treated quarterbacks like Chris Brown does Rihanna. Jay Cutler, Alex Smith, Blaine Gabbert, Ben Roethlisberger and Michael Vick were forced to exit their games early because of injuries (and another, Eli Manning, didn’t show up at all, but that’s a different story), sending some fantasy owners scrambling. In one-quarterback leagues, the ramifications are [...]
