So if you take away 2 weeks of preseason, replace with 2 "real games" and add a 2nd bye week, who loses in that equation? It seems like wins across the board - players hate preseason - problem fixed - profits increased for owners - fans get more "real" football to watch - players get an...

Give me Aromatherapy from Chicago in a late round. He can easily be a top 20-30 WR this year with some potential to be inside the top 20.

Interesting stats from ESPN magazine a few weeks back. Cold weather really has no effect on passing statistics according to their findings. The top 15-20 coldest games in NFL history (many in recent decades) show passing stats all over the map. So if its wise to ignore the thermometer when...

Past injury trends are part of the equation for future projection. You don't remove them or else your missing a major component of forecasting.

The Steelers last year proved that you can win the Superbowl with no offensive line at all or running game. But to focus on your Jets, I think if Ryan would have shelfed Sanchez a few weeks ago and ride out the season with Clemens (isn't that the backup? sorry I forgot the shmuck) the Jets...

He fell all the way to the 3rd round in your rookie dynasty draft? I think he went top 10 pick in the 1st round in our draft. (like 5 RB's, Crabtree and Heyward Bey or something like that in the beginning). Depending on your roster depth size of your league, I'd keep him another year.

Just my observations over the last couple of seasons, but you'll get surprising RB performances by young backups in these late season games, much more than at the WR position. Our dynasty superbowl champs the last few years are won by owners whom have picked up and started virtual unknown RB's...

:lmao: Agree with this strategy 100%. Additionally, late season quality performances from RB's like Harrison and that KC running back are always really big unknowns for the long haul of dyanasty. Sometimes you get a Pierre Thomas (respectable dynasty back after replacing Bush in the mid...

I may throw fleaflicker out there to our commish to check out for next season. We play in an IDP Dynasty league with lots of specialized scoring rules and starting lineup formations. Currently we are with CBS, but they charge an arm and a leg. It would be nice to find a less expensive/free...

I live on the east coast and I am not even a Raiders fan. I'll sign that petition right away, just out of compasion for the coaches, players and fans of the Raiders!!!

Vince Young to Britt...TD with game clock at 0:00. Tennessee wins. But wait! Bironas then goes out and kicks extra point and the entire betting line just changed. My fantasy opponent (who has Bironas) also just got 1 more point. This was a non-conference game so the points don't matter for...

The only real problem now is giving up 4 TDs in 5 weeks on kick returns. That merits a coach firing. Spotting a team 7 pts. every week is just horrible.This loss was good for the Steelers and Hines getting frustrated and fired up will only make them regain focus going forward (this is only...

:blackdot: as simple as it sounds, I think the fact Bush is used sparingly is actually the reason for his success this season. Bell and Thomas are bigger backs with a different running style and offensive strategy. Defensive schemes are created to stop that style. When Bush comes in on a...

I think the 2 Wild Card teams can safely be narrowed down to Pittsburgh, Baltimore and the Texans. Pitt is no sure thing, if Baltimore beats them 2x, then Pitt could easily miss the playoffs all-together. San Diego is a lock for the West with Denver being exposed as a fraud and clearly was an...

Lets see...listed as questionable most of the week, facing the #2 passing D, Denver is in free-fall mode....Marshal goes out and puts up 130 yds and 2 TD's in 1st quarter alone (not to mention best fantasy game production total for the year) than disappears for the rest of the game. Yeah, he's...
