Eli Manning's poor performance on Sunday probably cost more than a few owners a shot at playing for a fantasy title.  It's a tough pill to swallow considering how well he has played over the last month.  Two of his three interceptions came when the Redskins sent an all out blitz.  Pryor to this game Eli was doing  a great job of exposing opposing defenses in these exact situations.  Unfortunately for us, this is exactly what we've come to expect from Eli when we need him the most.  He lets us down.  This performance is the reason why I had Eli as a preseason bust.  We know he's a QB1.  We know he'll throw for 4,000 + yards and 25 + touchdowns.  And we know he will let us down. Rodgers almost pulled an Eli, but managed two second half... read more

Week 14 is the beginning of the Fantasy Playoffs in 99% of all leagues.  If you've made it this far congratulations, you’ve most likely earned it.  The journey begins now. This week also marks the return of Michael Vick who missed the last two games with Broken ribs.  Vick should have his top target back in Jeremy Maclin who is also scheduled to return this week.  The Eagles face the Dolphins who have been playing solid all around team football.   Like the Eagles, Vick has been a disappointment for Fantasy owners who drafted him hoping they were getting the Vick of last season.  If you have another option you might want to go with it.  Vick is a tough call this week.  Josh Freeman put in a full practice today and is scheduled to start Sunday.     1) Aaron Rodgers... read more

Tom Bradydismantled the Eagles on Sunday with relative ease.  His owners should be licking their chops with the Colts coming to town.  Aaron Rodgers comes in at #2, and it's only because Brady gets the Colts.  Drew Brees put on a clinic Monday night.  He's hitting his stride at just the right time.  The Lions seam to be falling apart, but Stafford is still producing high end QB1 numbers.  His fantasy day was bailed out thanks to a garbage time touchdown to Megatron.  I have a well documented love hate relationship with Eli Manning.  However, know one can deny his production.  He's close to joining the lower end of the first tier.   I have Philip Rivers at #12 this week.  He has been disappointing all season long and would be difficult to recommend at this point.   1) Tom Brady - NEP -... read more

Fantasy owners have to be getting tired of Philip Rivers inconsistent play.  I can honestly say I don't blame them.  However, I still have confidence in him, and believe he still has the ability to produce QB1 numbers.  This will be an important test against a solid Bears defense.  The Chargers need to win if they want keep pace in the AFC West.  If they lose owners might need to search elsewhere for consistent fantasy production, and that's not a good thing heading into the playoffs. Michael Vick has been ruled out for Sunday.  Vince Young will start in his place and makes an okay option if your in a bind.  We can expect the Eagles to run a ton against a week Giants front seven.  I expect Tony Romo to put up decent numbers against a solid Redskins secondary.  This... read more

Week 10 was a difficult one for the quarterback position.  Matt Schaub is likely done for the year.  This is a major blow to fantasy owners and the Texans.  Houston has been playing well and looking for their first ever post season birth.  With Schaub going down, Matt Leinart will take over as the Texans starting quarterback after the teams week 11 bye.  Leinart is a former first round pick (11th overall) who has never been able to play up to his potential. With Leinart under center we can expect the Texans to feature a healthy dose of Foster and Tate going forward.  I expect the coaches to simplify the offense and get the south paw out of the pocket on play action fakes and bootlegs.  He's an interesting prospect going forward in deeper leagues and leagues that start two quarterbacks. Michael Vick took a ton of... read more

Rodgers is hands down the top signal caller in fantasy football.  He has a surplus of weapons and is on pace to break some pretty impressive records.   Brees disappointed his owners in week 8, but I expect a nice bounce back performance againstTampa.  He's the type of player that responds well after having a serving of humble pie.  I have Eli ranked #3 this week, and I wanted to put him higher.  The Patriots secondary has been horrible and the Giants passing offense is better than most think.  Vick had a very good showing against the Cowboys on Sunday night.  The Eagles offense could be extremely explosive in the second half of the season.  Brady should have a solid day against the Giants.  This game has the potential to be a shoot out. Matt Ryan has a very favorable match... read more
