Don’t know if we’re comfortable with Dwayne Bowe, “still getting up to speed” with the Chiefs offense after his suspension.  If you found a different option while he was out, you might want to stick with it.

Nobody’s been able to beat the Saints this year; apparently Tim Cowlishaw's got the knowledge.

Larry Fitzgerald sayz he’ll play this week against the Lions.  He’s a risky start though, could reaggravate his knee, could get yanked when the Cards roll up a 28 point lead in the first quarter.

A ton of snow on the east coast could affect a couple games.  SF/Philly, Atlanta/Jets, Chicago/Baltimore.  According to the weather channel, it should blow though before game time, but you still might see your fantasy dudes slippin n slidin.

If you reeeallllyy need a RB this week, Maurice Morris gets the start for the Lions with Kevin Smith on IR.  I wouldn’t expect much production, but he should get the bulk of the carries and any goal line snaps.

The Rams had a flu outbreak that hit Steven Jackson.  Bet he’ll be a game time decision; make sure you’re checking the updates all Sunday morning.

Reggie Brown starts for the Eagles Sunday.  Remember him?  Dude is a free agent in just about every league and could be an emergency play if you need to fill a hole at WR

Week fifteen's 100% Correct Fantasy Football Player Rankings are up.  You're welcome.

Dwayne Bowe’s back on the field after his suspension.   Use with caution this fantasy play-off week.  He could just as easily not do much because of the lay off; r blow up because he’s playing the Browns.

Been a while since we’ve had a dude with weed in the car. 

Any strides the Raiders were making lately will end if Bruce Gradkowski can’t go.  JaMarcus Russell is so bad, they’re considering Charlie Frye.

Houston’s RB spot is a jumble.  You’d love to start one of these dudes against St Louis this week but how can you when all three backs looks to get some time.   Guess you go with Moats for the goal line & late-game-kill-the-clock opportunities.

Sandra Bullock played Michael Oher's mom in a movie and was nominated for a bunch of awards.  THe movie looks like a chick-flick, but we like the Blind Side book. 

After dropping four of the last five; the Rountable’s entry in the Razzball Invitational fantasy blogger league finished 8-6 and didn’t make the final four playoff round.  Shucks.  Big ups to Razz for hosting; it was a stone grove my man.   Razzball, Rookieblitz, Rotoscoop and Fantasy Depth Chart cage fight it out for the title.

Matt Cassel will start again, but fantasy owners need to keep in mind that he was yanked last Sunday; no reason to think he couldn’t see the bench again against a better-than-average Buffalo D.

Matt Ryan may try to play on his turfed toe.  Probably not the best idea, but then you have Chris Redman breathing down your neck; you can’t afford to sit out.  Turf toe is a mother, so you should look another way if Ryan is usually your guy.

Coach John Fox was stoked his back-up QB lead the squad to a 16-6 victory against a 1-and-whatever team.  Matt Moore may be at this helm again Sunday, but should stay safely on the fantasy waiver wire.

Some interesting fantasy play-off stuff from the free hotel paper.

Drew Brees will be on Leno Wednesday night.
 
Coach Tomlin’s making a bunch of changes to his defense for Thursday.  Pittsburgh D owners would be if they were playing anybody other than the Browns.  Don’t panic, Steeler D should be ok this week, but If you have a better defense platoon that you think is better than ok, you might go another way.

Ochocinco’s late on his car note.

12/5/2009

DeAngelo Williams hasn’t practiced all week.  Never a good sign for your fantasy team, but a plus if dude needs more time for paintball.

Steve Slayton can’t feel his thumb, which is bad when you’re trying to hold on to a football.  He may be a scratch Sunday. 

DeSean Jackson is out Sunday.  The Jason Avant was the hot WR pick up last week; go ahead and grab if if you’re in need.  Avant’s picked up his game with 17/276/1 the last three weeks.

Male tramp stamps are a fail, whatever the situation.

Haven’t talked up the Razzball Invitational fantasy league in a while.  The Roundtable sits at 8-4 tied for third with two games to go.  As you can imagine with some of the best fantasy ballers on the planet involved, it’s still tight with seven of ten teams still in contention for four play-off spots.  We hit a little bump in the road with the recent Steve Slayton situation; but were still pretty stocked at RB with Addai and Benson leading the charge.  We got on the Jason Avant bandwagon this week as we’ve been struggling at the #3 WR spot since Dwayne Bowe’s suspension.  Oh, the needle and the damage done; to our fantasy team.

12/4/2009

Cedric Benson will play and with Bernard Scott in (sweet) street gear, we think Benson will get the carries until the Bengals roll up 14-point or so lead against the Lions, then look for Larry Johnson to take over.

Looks like Matt Moore’s gonna get the start for Carolina.  We wouldn’t figure Coach John Fox thinks that much of the dude; for as bad a Delhomme has played, Moore gets in the game only now and only because of Delhomme’s injury.  Leave Moore on the fantasy waiver wire.

Not that Dolphin receivers have been anything to write home about, but Brian Hartline might get a little more action in the coming weeks.

Weather will be a factor Monday night with the Packers and the Ravens.  Two good defenses, but Green Bay is used to playing in the snow, Baltimore maybe not so much.  Flacco and Derrick Mason may have subpar games if they play to the weather and keep it on the ground.

The Niner’s new offensive scheme may limit Frank Gore’s numbers.

The 100% Correct Fantasy Footbal Player Rankings are updated. 

Kind of stunned that Jim Mora sayz that Julius Jones is still his starter.  What else does Justin Forsett have to do?  If you benefited from Forsetts A+ fantasy day Sunday, keep your eyes on the situation.  Jones has a bruised lung, but it sounds like he’ll start if he checks out this week in practice.

Elam’s out as Atlanta’s kicker.   Replacement Matt Bryant should be a decent fantasy option as the Falcons score some points.

Sounds like Fred Jackson’s the man in Buffalo.  Try to avoid starting him this week against the tough Jets D, unless you gotta have somebody going in the Thursday night game.

This is a good idea for the local papers when the local team sucks; trot out stories from the glory days.  For the Brownies, you go back to 1968.

The Saints: on a mission from God.

11/21/2009

Ladell Betts is the man again this week for Washington.  Look for him to take a fantasy step back this though against a good Cowboy rush D.

Kyle Orton didn’t practice Friday; usually sitting so late in the week means you’ll be on the shelf Sunday, but Orton isn’t ruling himself out.  He’s either going to not play or be severely limited.

Reggie Bush is out.  From the fantasy perspective, you can’t point to one player and say so-and-so will pick up the slack.  With two solid RBs and an armada of dudes that catch the ball, Bush’s production will be spread around the existing weapons; might see a little more actions in dudes you all ready start, but nothing that should change your line-up decisions.

Brian Westbrook’s out for the next three games.  When he’s out of the line-up the Eagles roll with a 60/40 split between LeSean McCoy and Leonard Weaver.  There aren’t a lot of rushing opportunities in the Eagle offense so you don’t want to go with either in your fantasy line-up.

We had issues with the internet yesterday and appologise for the late updates on the 100% Correct Fantasy Football Player Rankings and our take on the latest news.  Without further ado….

Expect back-up Jason Snelling to start in place of Michael Turner Sunday.  A high ankle sprain is a real bad boo-boo and we don’t think Turner will make it, not matter how tough he is (and oh by the way, all that hate on the Theory of 370 can now stuff it).  The Giants rush D isn’t all that exciting so figure Snelling to have a good day.

Looks like Larry Johnson could go from the unemployment line to the starting line-up this Sunday.  We like Snelling better as this week’s waiver wire hottie, but if you’re short a dude, he might be worth something, maybe.

Dick Jauron gets the rest of the year off and Perry Fewell’s taking it home.  Fewell’s only in for the rest of the year, and as the defensive coordinator, don’t expect big offensive changes.  This week’s opponent, Jacksonville, is without their #1 CB for the second week in a row; three Jets WRs had decent games against the Jags secondary last week ; Owens and Evans might bust out for decent games.

Dwayne Bowe’s on ice for the next four week.  Oh the needle and the damage done.   Chris Chambers is a long shot waiver wire play if you really need somebody in the short term.

How dare Devin Hester be more concerned about the birth of his son than his performance last Thursday night.  Doesn’t he know that were making the fantasy play-off push?

Bruce Gradkowski starts at QB for Oakland.  Whatever.  Cincinnati defense is a start start start.

The Giants are crying about playing on Thanksgiving.

Our boy Steve Hauschka got the boot and Billy Cundiff gets the kicking gig in Baltimore.  If you’re not happy with your current kicker, Cundiff might be a pick.  The Ravens are a playoff quantity team and put some points on the board.

Clinton Portis probably isn’t going to play Sunday.  Ladell Betts has played well but against the Cowboys, don’t expect the same, might want to go another way if you have the option.

Ron Brown is out for the year.  With Lex Hilliard as the new #2 RB, look for Ricky Williams to get the bulk of the playing time.

The Silverdome sold for $583,000.  Cost $55.7 million to build in 1975; that’s about $212 million in today’s $$$s.  Nice investment.  Best Silverdome moment ever?  Hulk Hogan v Andre the Giant.
