Fantasy Pop Quiz - Questions for Week 4 Lineups

A friend of mine shared a Facebook post this week that I found myself relating to very differently than he intended. He mused that before he became a parent, he swore he'd always answer his kids' questions with well thought out, logical responses. When he, y'know, actually became a parent, his responses were much more comical, […]

Running Backs Waiver Wire - Week 4 Pickups and Adds

Week 3 saw things revert back to normalcy in the fantasy world. Just kidding, it was a ****ing mess. Not so much in the running back world, though. The studs were mostly studs, except for the one that got to play the Jets. The early waiver wire pickups have mostly paid off, except the one […]

Fantasy Football Buy-Low and Sell-High Candidates for Week 3

It has been tougher for fantasy football owners to get yards and points out of their players this season than we expected.

Top 10 Fantasy Lineup Busts - Week 3

Another week in the NFL and another disappointing fantasy performance by [insert the name of someone or, more likely, someones from your lineup here]. I saw on Reddit earlier that there's only been 11 100-yard receiving games through two weeks after there were 30 last season, so it's not just you who's thinking that something […]

Todd Gurley - Top Fantasy RB in the Land?

Todd Gurley was the 10th overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft. At the time, Gurley was hailed as the best back to come out of college since Adrian Peterson. Gurley was drafted to be an every-down, featured back, and is one of the few backs in the NFL to live up to that designation. […]

Welcome back to another Thursday Night Football matchup preview, Rotoballers!

Top 10 Fantasy Football Lineup Busts: Week 2

Last week in this column I made this little joke: "if I tell you to bench David Johnson, you have my permission to send me mean Tweets about it." Well--ugh.

NFL Survivor League Picks - Week 2

Week 1 is in the books and it sure was a doozy. The games were mostly lopsided and dull. Only two games, the Falcons at Bears, and Chargers, Broncos came down to the final possession.* I had the Bears as an upset special and they should have won the game. Week 1 also leads to massive overreaction. […]
