DET @ MIA Start: Calvin Johnson You have to. If you’re in the Championship, Calvin is one of the guys that got you there. Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games.

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

SD @ CIN Start: Philip Rivers, QB, San Diego Chargers–Despite the Chargers’ poor record, Rivers has put up outstanding numbers all season long, even without some of his top playmakers available.

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 15

It’s Monday, we’re in the fantasy playoffs; time to review. Top Performer At one point Mike Vick had 1 fantasy point in the 2nd quarter and things didn’t look like they were going the get any better. In fact, I was in a bar with a concerned Vick owner who was losing his mind. Here [...]

FF All-Matchup Team: Stay Away From These Guys in Week 15

We did this last week…and now we’re back for more! As I wrote last week, just because a player has a bad matchup doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t start them. An example: coming into last week, Tom Brady had the second worst statistical matchup, but he excelled as his Patriots crushed the Bears. You’re just [...]

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

Cleveland at Buffalo Start: Peyton Hillis–He’s a given. Though the Dolphins figured out how to slow him down last week, the Bills really pose no defensive threat except Paul Posluszny.
