Seahawks – Browns preview
Posted on 20 Oct 2011 by Erik Olsoy.
The bye week could not have come at a better time for the ailing Seahawks. By the end of the Seahawks’ win against the Giants two weeks ago, the Seahawks were without starters Tarvaris Jackson, Zach Miller, Max Unger, Mike Williams, and Robert Gallery on offense. Cornerback Marcus Trufant was also placed on the injured reserve list this week, forcing the Seahawks to play out the remainder...

61-yard field goal falls short to halt furious Seahawk rally
Posted on 3 Oct 2011 by Erik Olsoy.
The Atlanta Falcons had a 27-7 lead near the beginning of the third quarter. A friend texted me from work asking me how the Seahawks were doing, and I responded “they’re getting killed.” The Falcon offense was running smoothly, and the game looked to be firmly in Atlanta’s control. However, like they have done in nearly every game this season (not against Pittsburgh), the Seahawks...

Seahawks final roster cuts and projected 2011 starting lineup
Posted on 6 Sep 2011 by Erik Olsoy.
On Saturday, all NFL teams were required to make enough roster cuts to drop to the league-mandated 53 man rosters. The Seahawks cut 20 players; none of these moves were particularly surprising. Among the players cut were veterans defensive lineman Colin Cole and offensive lineman Mike Gibson. Cole’s future had been in doubt since the team re-signed Brandon Mebane to an extension with th...

Posted on 11 Jul 2011 by David Willow.
Onto the league divas and in a pass heavy league perhaps the most important picks of your draft. Wide outs can be unpredictable at points and it's because of this that it's important to grab a reliable pass catcher before the board is ravaged. So let's take a look at the top guys coming into the 2011 season. 1 – Andre Johnson – Speed, height, and bulk would be an adequate physical d...

Buffone’s Weekend Menu: The Final Feast
Posted on 25 Dec 2010 by John Buffone.
Everything you’ve worked so hard this year comes down to a single weekend. For most, this Sunday is the last time you’ll set a lineup until September of 2011. It’s essential that you go out in style. Here’s the last menu of 2010. Healthy: Josh Freeman- The Tampa QB is only averaging one TD a game this month but look for that to change at home this week against Seattle. The Seahawks pa...

McFadden, Stewart lead Week 15′s Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 16 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Start’em in Week 15 Darren McFadden (vs. Denver) There’s something about McFadden exposing horrendous rush defenses and then playing doormat to average to good ones. Against defenses ranked 1st to 15th, Run DMF has TOTALED just 61 fantasy points — six games for an average of just over 10 — but against the bottom half of the league, he has totaled 131 fantasy points — five ...

Week 13: Start’em or Sit’em
Posted on 2 Dec 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
If the playoffs started today (NFL, not fantasy), three out of the four games on Wildcard Weekend would have the visiting team favored. For the NFC, No. 5 New Orleans would travel to No. 4 St. Louis. For the AFC, No. 6 Pittsburgh would travel to No. 3 Kansas City and No. 5 New England would travel to No. 4 Jacksonville. Through all of this, should division winners be guaranteed a home playoff g...

Posted on 24 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
It’s a short week, so let’s just get to the good stuff. Start’em in Week 12 Kevin Boss (vs. Jacksonville) No Steve Smith, no Hakeem Nicks and Boss – the Giants’ leading receiver per yards per reception (15.1) – takes on the NFL’s 28th worst pass defense in the Jaguars. Mario Manningham (vs. Jacksonville) The Giants’ No. 1 receiver for the next three weeks Danny Woodhead (@ Det...

NFL Power Rankings Week 12: Vick’s Eagles on Top, Cowboys, Bills, Packers Rising
Posted on 23 Nov 2010 by Bear Heiser.
I'm starting to get the feeling that the top 10 teams in the NFL are interchangeable right now. Take your pick: New England, Pittsburgh, the Jets, Baltimore, Green Bay, Philadelphia, the Giants, Atlanta, New Orleans, Chicago. Any clear cut favorites? It's one big smorgasbord of wins and losses. We will probably have a better idea of things after the Week 12 action. Top Five Matchups To Watch in...

Week 11 (and beyond) Pickups
Posted on 16 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Week 10 (and beyond) pickups: Quarterbacks Sam Bradford (available in 57% of leagues) Back-to-back 15-point performances have Bradford in a good position against the Atlanta Falcons this week (23rd against the pass) and the Arizona Cardinals (27th against the pass) in Week 13. Colt McCoy (available in 93% of leagues) The Browns are hot as of late and playing against Jacksonville this week (29th...

View from my Couch: Bucs Win Big
Posted on 16 Nov 2010 by Justin Chechourka.
Yes, the Bucs won big, but it wasn't the blowout I was hoping for. I wanted to see the team perform flawlessly. I wanted to see them roll through the Panthers. Instead, it was sloppy… a couple turnovers, a few missed opportunities and a lot of penalties. Too many penalties. Still a win's a win and I'll take it. Carolina didn't bring the “Kitchen Sink Playbook” like I thought t...

NFL Week 10, The Midseason: Some Like It Hot
Posted on 11 Nov 2010 by Al Buzzelli.
Fantasy football, like the midseason period for NFL organizations can be a stressful time to make difficult choices. Whether to pickup Minnesota’s Sidney Rice, Tennessee’s Nate Washington or even Arizona’s LaRod Stevens-Howling can be equally as contemplative for NFL owners and coaches as they have to deal with their own dilemmas. Dallas’ Jerry Jones didn’t seem to have that tough a t...
