    NFL Team #1 Defense and #1 Offense Not Make Playoffs?

    Has there ever been a team ranked #1 in defense and #1 in offense (yards per game) not make the playoffs? Currently, the Chargers allow 282 yds per game on defense, in front of Giants at 291 and Bears at 300. On offense, the Chargers are almost #1 in the league: Eagles 401, Chargers 397...

    Vick QB1 in Week #3 According to Dodds

    I am sorry if this is not appropriate as this is subscriber material. If so, then please remove my post and I apologize. Otherwise I just wanted to bring up the issue of Vick being ranked QB1 this week, which I think is nuts. Yes JAX's secondary is not looking too good right now, but there is...

    Assisted Tackles in STL

    We've always known that games played in STL have usually been low on assisted tackles because they are quite stingy over there, and I took this into consideration to some extent in the past. I don't know if they have a new guy in charge this year, but yesterday was stingy beyond imagination...

    Are the Vikings Really a Lock This Week?

    1. The Vikings had an easy win on paper last week, but they only outgained the Browns 310-268 in yardage. 2. The Lions can move the ball on offense 3. It's a divisional game. See Bills-Pats and Chargers-Raiders last week. The dogs lost, but they made it close. There are several such...

    Have You Ever Drafted Only Using FBG Rankings and Projections?

    So during the offseason I changed jobs, moved my family to another continent, was very busy at work, dealt with death of my grandfather, and ended up having no time whatsoever to spend on fantasy football. So I will draft exclusively using material provided by FBG. I barely know what has been...

    Overtime Rules

    The problem with the current OT rules is that the team that wins the coin toss before OT has a much greater chance of winning the game. So you introduce a luck element that should not be there. I thought after the Colts-Chargers playoff game the league would change the rule, but not so. I...

    How Many Wins Would the All-Cut Team Get?

    Who is the Next Superstar Fantasy RB?

    Who do you think is the next superstar fantasy RB? I am thinking multi-year dominance like E Smith, M Faulk, and LT, players who carry fantasy teams by themselves. As of now it looks like Adrian Peterson *could* be next. But after that, who is your (wild) guess? How has the tools to do it...

    Alex Smith vs Aaron Rodgers

    Going into the 2005 draft, I thought A Smith and A Rodgers had almost equal NFL potential. One got put in a very bad situation and started in his first year, the other one was put in a good situation and had years to learn from (watch) a future HOF QB. One became a bust, and although it's...

    Can the Punter be MVP of a Game?

    Ok I am half serious half joking. But if a punter can ever be the MVP of a game, it would be Scifres yesterday: 1. punt 51 yards to Colts 10, no return 2. punt 58 yards to Colts 15, return 4 yards, net 54 yds 3. punt 50 yards to Colts 3, no return 4. punt 67 yards to Colts 5, return 2...

    John Abraham

    In one half of football, the Raiders have 13 offensive plays and J Abraham has 4 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 forced fumble. This gotta be a record for fantasy points scored per defensive play in a half :confused:

    DeMeco Ryans Injury Status

    Does anybody have any injury info on D Ryans this week beyond what's in the "players in the news"? It just says he did not practice but will play. Do you expect him to be fairly limited?

    Ronnie Brown vs Ricky Williams

    What kind of workload should we expect for R Brown vs R Williams going forward? I suspect some think R Brown will now be the workhorse based on the NE game. But my feeling is that R Williams will continue to be used significantly and that this remains RBBC until one gets injured. I would say...

    C Palmer Week 4 Projections

    Please delete if I am not allowed to post this because it's subscriber material. But Dodds is projecting C Palmer as QB13 at home against the Browns. Ok I get it, Palmer has a bad season start. Ok I get it, O-Line is horrible. Ok I get it, running game is not there, etc. But gimme a break...

    Who Will See Greatest Increase in Value From 2008 to 2009?

    Last year one example of a player expected to see a significant improvement in value/ADP from 2007 to 2008 was M Turner. It has happened. Who do you forecast to have a big improvement in value from 2008 to 2009, regardless of reason, but most likely because free agency movements?

    Why is Romeo Crennel Considered Good Now?

    I must ask why is Romeo Crennel suddenly considered a good coach while there were serious question marks not a long time ago? I mean, if he's so good as a coach, why did he not start Derek Anderson game #1? Why did he not see right away (early in camp) that Anderson was the starter and that he...

    Ernie Sims

    I don't see E Sims very often. He's had a decent year but I came away very disappointed today. I thought he had an awful game. I counted at least 4 missed tackles, not to mention taking bad angles on some plays which prevented him from even touching the Packers receiver after a catch. He had...

    What Happened to Vernand Morency?

    V Morency was brought in GB to be the 3rd down RB. From what I saw he was adequate last year - not great, not bad. This year, after returning from injury he seemed to do ok once again, especially in the passing game. That's why I thought he was a decent 3rd down back. But now he's barely on...

    Do the Bills Have a Chance to Beat the Pats?

    Do the Bills really have a chance to beat the Pats? At first glance, no, especially not without M Lynch. I would certainly not claim that the Bills will win ("mark it down" :eek: ), but consider this: 1. In general, I am less surprised when a very good team loses to a weaker team when it's...
