Week 16 Start/Sit Special Thursday Edition—Panthers/Steelers

In last week’s Thursday start/sit column, I complained about how these Thursday night games stink a majority of the time. Well, this matchup is even worse as we, the viewing public, are supposed to watch the wretched Carolina Panthers attempt to hang with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are looking for a bounce-back win. There are [...]

Start’em and Sit’em: Sunday’s afternoon games

ATL @ SEA Start: Michael Turner, RB, and Roddy White, WR, Atlanta Falcons–The Seahawks haven’t been able stop top notch receivers or running back all seasons and it doesn’t look like they’ve got what it takes to stop Atlanta’s top weapons, Turner and White. Both appear to be heating up as the season ends, which [...]

With QB Ben Roethlisberger suspended at the start of the season, Pittsburgh was supposed to be in a deep hole when he finally [...]

Start’em and Sit’em: Sunday’s early games

Quarterbacks: Which are soaring and which are sinking?

If you’re in the playoffs in your fantasy football league, there’s likely one reason and one reason only—you’ve got a stud quarterback. Or, at least two decent quarterbacks and you’re smart enough to play the one with the best matchup. Because, just like real life, a good fantasy team is worthless without a good quarterback. [...]

Running Backs: Who should you start and who should you sit?

You don’t want to look like a fool, do you? Because you will if you continue to start the same dumpy RB that put up 40 something points in Week 2. I get it; he did it once, that doesn’t mean that Jahvid Best will do it again THIS season. It’s the fantasy playoffs now [...]
