Fantasy Football Brothers has shifted gears to focus on the NFL Playoffs. Many fantasy owners are somewhat new to the Playoff Leagues, but it is something that is challenging and keeps the fantasy season going for those of you that missed out on a championship. As my colleague stated in an earlier post, "It let's me watch an NFL game knowing I have that player in my starting lineup." These ranking are in depth and they provide for the leagues that do select backups at their respected positions. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Running Back rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and these rankings are done by a last man standing type rules.

Fantasy Football Brothers is in full swing for the NFL Playoffs. The Fantasy Playoffs are a great way to keep your Fantasy season going....shhhhh...."Just don't tell the wife." If you missed out on a championship because Steven Jackson decided not to play in Week 16, then this is the time for redemption. These rankings are in depth and they provide for the leagues that do select backups at their respected positions.

The regular season of Fantasy Football is over, but that doesn't mean the season is over. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Quarterback rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and these rankings are done by a last man standing type rules. This of course means the highest ranked players we believe will go the furthest in the NFL Playoffs. If you own Peyton Manning and the Colts are knocked out, you are done with scoring points from the Quarterback position. While we don't think this will be the case, you never know, anything can happen in the post-season. Playoff Leagues draft only one player at a position and no moves are allowed, again your player gets knocked out and he is done, that is where the last man standing comes in. Leagues usually run with the basic 1-QB<--->2-RB<--->2-WR<--->1-RB/WR<--->1-TE<--->1-K<--->1-D/ST type roster. Have a... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Kickers heading into the NFL Playoffs. Many fantasy owners are new to Playoff Leagues, but it keeps the fantasy season going for those of you that missed out on a championship. The Kickers from the top two favorites (Colts and Saints) going into the NFL Playoffs come with caution, notably the Colts with Adam Vinatieri and Matt Stover. Is Vinatieri healthy enough to kick and has he been away too long? Will the Colts switch back to Stover? Another question rests with the Saints as Garrett Hartley got a case of the shanks to end the season. Would they switch back to John Carney at some point in the Playoffs? These ranking are in depth and they provide for the leagues that do select backups at their respected positions. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Kicker rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers has an eye on the NFL Playoffs. Many fantasy owners are Playoff Leagues rookies, but it is easy and fun to do. There are no moves to be monitored and you only set your lineup once. Your wife/girlfriend won't even realize your Fantasy Football season is still going, as long as you don't let the cat out of the bag. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Defense/Special Team rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and these rankings are done by a last man standing type rules. This of course means the highest ranked players we believe will go the furthest in the NFL Playoffs. If you own the Saints D/ST and they are knocked out, you are done getting points. While we don't think this will be the case, you never know, anything can happen in the post-season. Playoff Leagues draft only one player at a position and no... read more
Week 17 and Fantasy Football Brothers has the kicking situation covered in your league. This is a tough week to gauge kickers because most teams will be resting their starters on offense, as well as defense. That doesn't mean there aren't points to take advantage of with your kickers, because there are some who have decent matchups, starting with Matt Prater of the Denver Broncos. Prater has been consistent throughout the year and now the Broncos get to take on the Chiefs and their leaky defense. The Broncos are playing for a Wild Card so we know nobody will be resting in this game, although Brandon Marshall will be a scratch for being a malcontent. What else is new? There are also some kickers who have battled back from injuries, notably Neil Rackers and Adam Vinatieri, though they... read more
It's the season finale and it's also the close of the fantasy season for most, unless you play the fantasy playoff season that is. The D/ST's units have been a crapshoot this year and I hope most of you remember that when it comes draft time next year. There is no need to go out and spend a high draft pick on a D/ST unit, they can be found, and matchups can be played. For those of you in your final games it must be tough being in a league where the championship is played in Week 17 where players will undoubtedly be sitting.

With so many teams resting starters this week, submitting your line up could become difficult. Guys like Chad Henne, Matt Moore and Devin Aromashodu should be added to your roster and inserted into your line up over guys we're certain will sit. I know your studs got you to this point, but it's the guys on this list who could bring you home a title. Make sure you pay attention to what the coaches are saying this week. Most will indicate if certain players will be rested and who may see an increase in playing time. It's not the way we like to wrap up fantasy seasons, but it is what it is. It's why most leagues have moved to a 16 week season. If your in a league where your playoffs run through week 17, you should consider changing... read more

Week 16 and it's the final round for most fantasy owners. Points are much needed and kickers are a great way to get those much needed points. Stephen Gostkowski of the New England Patriots is Fantasy Football Brothers top rated kicker going into Week 16. This was the presence of many factors, the main one being the Patriots offense is sort of in a funk right now and there red zone package is predictable at best. Which leaves Gostkowski to boom them in and put points on the board. Have a sit/start, or waiver wire question? – Send it in. The Brotherhood answers ALL questions FREE of charge.
