Well folks, we're heading into Week 4 now. That sense of familiarity with football is setting in. The chaos of week-to-week adjustments, realizing you saw a trend where there wasn't one, or hitting the jackpot and cashing in a huge day. We can all agree that Week 3 was pretty absurd, with many studs and […]

There’s nothing more frustrating than throwing together a rag-tag collection of […]
Full Story »The Daily Divide: Week Four DFS
Daily Divide: Week Four Matt and Nathan each offer Week 4 cash game picks for every position, then the other insults or compliments those picks, as warranted. They hope their arguments debates provide enough information to make help people make their own decisions. Matt probably makes more good points than Nathan though, over the long haul, […]
Full Story »Andrew Luck (QB, IND) - Week 4 Lineup Busts?
I thought I was getting out of here without one more crack at my oh so disappointing lineup, didn't I? Oh no, me, I don't get off that easy! That was very confusing. I apologize. Anyways, Luck shows up on this list because the Colts have been exceedingly lackluster this season - and while it's always […]
Full Story »Alfred Morris (RB, WAS) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
There was really a guy in my league who drafted Doug Martin and Alfred Morris this season. I was legitimately worried he'd suffered a head trauma and thought it was 2012 again. Like, I wanted to ask him if he was voting for Obama or Romney. I was 95% sure "Call Me Maybe" was playing […]
Full Story »Melvin Gordon (RB, SD) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
He's losing goal line touches to Danny Woodhead. DANNY WOODHEAD. Danny Woodhead is the exact antithesis of a "goal-line threat" RB. Typically those RBs are like 6 foot, 250 pounds and score by leaning forward and trusting gravity. Danny Woodhead is not 6 foot, 250. Danny Woodhead is closer to 5 foot, 150. Danny Woodhead […]
Full Story »Peyton Manning (QB, DEN) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
Surprise! There's a QB who's been even bustier than Andrew Luck this season - I just now realized that was a terrible way to phrase that and good luck getting THAT mental image out of your head. Peyton "Fivehead" Manning and Andrew "Secretly a Cave Troll" Luck in a wet T-shirt contest. Ugh. Uuuuuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhh. Turns out […]
Full Story »Doug Martin (RB, TB) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
Remember when Doug Martin blew up on the Raiders in 2012? Remember how he hasn't done anything even remotely resembling the same sort of thing since then? If you own Martin, the chances you answered "yes" to question A are pretty high. The chances you answered "yes" to question B are probably pretty slim, though. […]
Full Story »Allen Robinson (WR, JAX) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
Yeah, Robinson was a trendy sleeper pick this season, and he certainly showed up in Week 2, but his Week 3 left a lot to be desired - and the Patriots don't have Vontae Davis like the Colts do. With one of the league's premier shutdown corners covering him, and the Immortal Blake Bortles (which […]
Full Story »Lamar Miller (RB, MIA) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
Oh hey look, it's my RB2! People were expecting an offensive breakout in South Florida this season, but it looks like the offense is just broken. With losses to the Bills (who are surprisingly good) and the Jaguars (unsurprisingly not good), the Dolphins have been a disappointment this season. Miller came in to this season […]
Full Story »Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN) - Week 4 Lineup Busts
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I COULD'VE DRAFTED JULIO JONES I HATE EVERYTHING. Seriously, last year I had Antonio Brown and Jordy Nelson and my team was named the WRecking Crew* I could've had the WRecking Crew 2 it even rhymes gaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh. Anyway, Hill was most likely a late first, early second round pick and aside from a Week […]
Full Story »Travis Benjamin (WR, CLE) - Week 4 Lineups Busts
While many people may not believe in Benjamin, I do. Benjamin leads or is tied for the lead on the team in targets, receptions, yards, and receiving touchdowns. In Cleveland's last game, Benjamin was targeted 10 times (catching four passes), while hauling in a four-yard TD. This tells me that the young receiver is not just […]
Full Story »Andre Ellington (RB, ARI) - Week 4 Lineups Busts
This isn't a "gang up on the Cardinals" pick, because I do love the Arizona offense in general. This is more about how impressed I have been with Chris Johnson so far this season. The running back formerly known as CJ2k (as well as CJ1k and CJ0k), has run with a purpose that hasn't been […]
Full Story »Carson Palmer (QB, ARI) - Week 4 Lineups Busts?
Palmer has played as many hoped he would following last year's torn ACL. The Cardinals passing game has fired on all cylinders this season, and Larry Fitzgerald has risen like a Phoenix (alright, I admit it, the pun was intended). But with all that being said, Arizona has beat up on some pretty bad defenses […]
Full Story »Philip Rivers (QB, SD) - Week 4 Lineup Booms
Rivers has come back to Earth after throwing for 404 yards and two touchdowns in his first game of the season against the Lions. Road games against solid defenses in Cincinnati and Minnesota will do that. But this week the Chargers host the Browns, who just allowed more than 300 yards in the air at […]
