This week the Brotherhood will be releasing our 1st LOOK at the 2010 dynasty rankings. We know the season isn't technically over, but we also know how important it is to stay ahead of the competition. There is nothing wrong with starting your prep work a little early. We're going to kick off this week with the quarterbacks.  This is how I would rank and value these players if I had to select my keepers today. These rankings will change throughout the off-season.  Some teams are going to improve through the draft and free agency and others are going to lose key players. Philip Rivers is a good example of a player who could find himself losing several key members of the Chargers offense. The San Diego front office has a lot of decisions to make this off-season. Do they resign Vincent Jackson, Malcom Floyd and LaDainian Tomlinson? If they... read more

With the wild card round in the rear view mirror now, we're left with eight teams battling for divisional supremacy. The eight teams left leave us with a healthy batch of quarterbacks entering different paths in their careers. As many as four are destined for the hall of fame and will look to continue building there legacy. Two are striving to take the next step in an attempt to move into the top tier while the last two guys are simply out to make a name for themselves. We should take a moment and reflect on how special this group of quarterbacks truly is. We'll start at the top with Warner and Favre. Both are sure bets to make the hall and could be playing in their last games respectively. Warner is... read more

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

Week 17 is upon us. The final week of the NFL regular season inevitably signals the end of the 2009 Fantasy season. If your reading this then your probably playing for a title. I'm not a fan of the week 17 playoff format and will never play in a league that extends until this week. I feel like it takes away from everything owner's did throughout the year. To many teams rest players this week and I'm actually ok with it. I'm not ok with what the Colts did last weekend, but that's a separate rant all together. If you rode Peyton and Co. this far they either burned you last week or have you scrambling this week. The key is to find players who have something to play for, but at this point in the season, it's... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers goes into Week 16 with our ears pinned back and our hair on fire. This is the week we have been looking forward to the whole season. This is it, the big one, the one where you collect your title and reap the rewards as you bask in the glory of fantasy greatness. Week 16 offers alot of good matchups in the NFL as teams are scrambling to fill the last playoff spots. Some of the more notable games this week are the San Diego Chargers at Tennessee Titans, Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans at Miami Dolphins, New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts, Denver Broncos at Philadelphia Eagles. One of the games flying under the radar this week is the Jacksonville Jaguars taking on the New England Patriots in Foxboro. The Patriots have been offensively challenged their last four games and have... read more

If your reading this then you're either playing for a championship or you're a week away from fantasy glory. This is the week to pay attention to what the coaches are saying. We need to know if certain players are going to rest or play sparingly. Check your waivers and look for those free agents who have solid match ups this week and could help your team in a pinch. We're not sure how the Colts are going to use Peyton Manning, if you own him have a backup plan in place just in case. The Colts have locked up everything in the AFC, unless they're shooting for perfection this could very well be the week Manning only plays a half. It's worth noting that some of our top QB's have very friendly match ups. Brees, Brady, Rodgers, Warner, Rivers and Schaub... read more

Tuesday at Fantasy Football Brothers means that it is 1ST LOOK ranking time. If your reading this there is a very good chance your playing for a title or your one win away. Either way, now is not the time to reflect back on the season. This is the week to pay attention to what the coaches are saying. Are certain players going to rest or play sparingly. Check your waivers and look for guys available who have solid match ups this week. We're not sure how the Colts are going to use Peyton Manning, if you own him have a backup plan in place just in case. The Colts have locked up everything in the AFC. Unless they're shooting for perfection this could very well be the week Manning only plays... read more

Welcome to week 15! If you have made it this far congratulations, but don't pat yourself on the back just yet. There is still work to be done and it starts at the top with the quarterbacks. Week 15 offers some difficult match ups from some of the previously safer options. After the top ten passers it becomes kind of a crap shoot. I wouldn't be very comfortable heading into the weekend with anyone outside the top 10. Difficult match ups and the weather will definitely play a roll and are sure to cause some sub par performances. One guy I'm not worried about is Kurt Warner. I know he didn't produce great numbers against the 49ers but they came into that game with a solid plan and executed it to perfection. That will not happen over the next two weeks when the Cardinals face Detroit and St.Louis. The only thing I would be... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers cruises into Week 15, so get on board, this is a big week for fantasy owners. This is the week that is do or die, no one wants to be left out of their leagues prize pool. In Week 15 there are many concerns with the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints. Will they or won't they rest their players? It's the time that teams think about getting healthy for the playoffs, and for fantasy owners there is no worse time. One player we received alot of questions about was Joseph Addai of the Colts. In my opinion he is a "risky" play going into the Jacksonville game because he has a banged up knee. The Colts may choose to go with a tandem of Mike Hart and Chad Simpson, my advice would be to play it safe if you have other suitable starting... read more

Thursday night looks like a classic mismatch at first glance. Many NFL fans will instantly think the Colts win in a blowout. Looking further into the numbers, Fantasy Football Brothers thinks there is one team that is great at one thing and another that is pretty well balanced offensively. That doesn't mean they don't have certain deficiencies that can't be exploited though. The Indianapolis Colts come into this game with the number one passing offense in the NFL. It's no secret, Peyton Manning and his wide receivers of Reggie Wayne, Pierre Garcon, and Austin Collie are special. That goes without even mentioning one of the leagues top pass catching tight ends in Dallas Clark. Sprinkle in Joseph Addai catching balls out of the backfield and they are nearly unstoppable. With that said, the Colts are ranked 28th in the league in rushing. They are... read more
