Fantasy Football Brother's heads into Week 10 and this is a tough bye week for many fantasy owner's as three elite quarterbacks are on byes this week. Fantasy owner's will be missing Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, and Philip Rivers this week. OUCH! That's not even mentioning the wideouts that go along with these quarterbacks such as Greg Jennings, Marques Colston, Lance Moore, any fill in the blank Charger wide receiver. DOUBLE OUCH! This week also marks the beginning of Thursday Night Football, which forces owner's to make tough decisions as to whether or not to start a player that is a little banged up. Roddy White owner's know what I'm talking about. The Player Projections for the Thursday Night Game are up in a different article. The Eight Ball will be updated after game time. This is the... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the Team Defense Ranks for Week 10. The top defense this week is the New York Giants, there front four continue to wreak havoc and their secondary is playing very well. The Cowboys are in for a long day Sunday afternoon. The cream is starting to rise to the top as old stalwarts like the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers are again amongst the top units in the league. Other units such as the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots are struggling to find consistency. Looking for a bye week filler? The Tampa Bay Bucs have a solid matchup against the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are depleted and Jimmy Clausen and Mike Goodson will start, meaning fantasy goodness for your squad. Looking for a deep sleeper? Revisit the scrap heap and take a look at the... read more

Week 8: Player Projections

Posted by in Projections on Oct 28th 2010 and last modified on Oct 29th 2010. (Print This)

The Week 8 Player Projections are here! I know they're late and I was reminded of that by our esteemed leader Bill Sherman. The truth lies somewhere in between that I lost data due to operator error (Thanks Eric) and the fact that I have been wrapped up in college football lately. My sincere apologies. Fantasy Football Brother's rolls on and as we take a look at the Week 8 Player Projections there are some noticeable names missing due to injury. Here's looking at you Dallas Clark, Joseph Addai, Malcom Floyd and Tony Romo (who according to Roy Williams, Jon Kitna is just as good as Romo) We'll see about that. Week 7 brought us more parity, though we can just call it a competitive balance. What has happened to the New Orleans Saints? They got manhandled by Cleveland last week, maybe Eric Mangini read Bill's... read more

Week 8: Defense/Special Teams Rankings

Posted by in Defenses,Ranks on Oct 28th 2010 and last modified on Oct 29th 2010. (Print This)

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at team defenses for Week 8. The New England Patriots grab the top spot this week as they take on a Minnesota Vikings team that is being held hostage by the egomaniac that is Brett Favre. The Patriots have been playing solid defense as of late and the younger players are starting to show their worth. A sleeper defense or bye week filler? Look at the Tampa Bay Bucs who take on the Arizona Cardinals on the road. Tampa's defense should be licking their chops with Max Hall under center for the Cardinals, add to that the lack of running game by Arizona and the Bucs are a solid play. Looking deeper? Check out the St. Louis Rams who are at home against the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have been atrocious on offense this season and if anyone can... read more

Week 7: Defense/Special Teams Rankings

Posted by in Defenses,Ranks on Oct 21st 2010 and last modified on Oct 22nd 2010. (Print This)

Fantasy Football Brother's ranks the team defenses for Week 7. The season is in full swing and offenses are ripe for the picking this week as many playmakers are out due to injuries (concussions). This could be a big week for team defenses and the top spot belongs to the Baltimore Ravens as they take on the Buffalo Bills in what should be a lopsided affair. Looking for a sleeper team defense? Look no further than the Seattle Seahawks who are still not on many people's fantasy radars. They should be and this week they take on the Cardinals who have been less than stellar offensively. Add in the fact that the 'Hawks are at home in the friendly confines of QWest Field and fantasy points should be aplenty. Still looking for another sleeper, let's go deep sleeper as we tab... read more

Week 7: Player Projections

Posted by in Projections on Oct 21st 2010 (Print This)

The Brotherhood takes a look at the Week 7 Projections. Hopefully everyone is taking advantage of the Eight Ball to make those hard to decide lineup questions, on top of asking the Brother's any questions you might have concerning fantasy football The injury bug has taken a bite out of fantasy rosters in Week 7 and this is where solid roster depth comes into play. We might have to rethink that whole depth doesn't win fantasy championships after this week. The defensive players have been hit hard by fines due to concussions and certain players such as the Steeler's James Harrison are said to be mulling retirement. While we don't buy into that, defensive guys have come out and said they won't change the way they play and will deal with the fines brought down by the NFL. The NFL is going to act like they care in... read more

Week 6: Player Projections

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the Projections for Week 6. We are pleased to announce the new tool for our reader's. At this moment we'll call it the Eight Ball. The project has been a long time in the making and we feel it is a good tool for fantasy owner's that are on the fence deciding between player's. The Eight Ball allows you to adapt the settings to your league scoring, much the same way our Draft Tool was run, so everything is customized and tailored to your league's scoring format. We hope you enjoy it! With that out of the way, the NFL has been wacky and weird to say the least as we head into Week 6. There have been a number of trades as I stated last week and there is one more to add to... read more

Week 5: Player Projections

Posted by in Projections on Oct 6th 2010 and last modified on Oct 7th 2010. (Print This)

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the Week 5 Projections. It's do or die time across fantasy leagues and it could be time for many fantasy owner's to try and make a move to improve their teams. Andre Johnson owners are between a rock and a hard place because Johnson is a little nicked up and he hasn't been putting up his typical numbers. Fantasy owner's in the lower part of their league standings might need to wait to get full value for him. Other owner's will try to pounce and buy low on Johnson. With all that being said this is a critical time in the season, unless your team plays two games a week, but if you play in a one game per week league, it could be time to address some of your team's issues if you haven't done so on... read more

Week 5: Defense/Special Teams Rankings

Posted by in Defenses,Ranks on Oct 6th 2010 and last modified on Oct 8th 2010. (Print This)

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at team defenses in Week 5. There have been a number of injuries that will affect offenses across football and we look for defenses to take advantage of these situations. We like the road defenses this week as six out of our top ten play on enemy soil. Though not an injury, the Saints defense should absolutely dominate Arizona's new quarterback Max Hall and unless the Cardinals can get the ground game going, it could be a long day and fantasy points should be at a maximum for the Saints defense. That is why they are our number one team defense heading into Week 5. Remember if you have the Miami Dophins, New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, or Seattle Seahawks team defenses it's time to make a move and plug and play. Let's get to the Ranks: 1) New Orleans Saints - NOR - DF, at Arizona Cardinals,... read more
