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 [...]

If the Pittsburgh Steelers can manage a win this week against the New York Jets, the Steelers will be poised to win the AFC North. This wasn’t supposed to happen this season.

The Brightside: Chances are that if you made it into your league’s playoff, then your matchup is likely fairly low scoring and with four teams playing tonight, you probably have a good shot to win this game. The Downside: With four teams playing tonight and some huge stars yet to go, your chances are equally [...]

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. Ryan Fitzpatrick–I also really like Ryan Fitzpatrick in this matchup. He has Lee Evans and Steve Johnson to throw to and he has hit Johnson [...]

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. [...]

You may think that you need to have a good QB and good RBs to go into the playoffs, but chances are you are already locked in with these guys and you have been using them all season. A good boost to your team can be noting which receivers are hot and which ones are [...]

With fantasy football playoffs in full swing, it’s important to plug the best players in every starting slot on the roster. While the quarterbacks, running backs and receivers are the “sexy” fantasy players, tight ends are many times the forgotten players on a fantasy roster. Sure, Antonio Gates, Tony Gonzalez and Dallas Clark are worth [...]
