    Tharold Simon apparently set to return

    Speaking of, anyone know what Wagner's injury is? I heard high ankle sprain for Maxwell, but nothing on Bobby.

    One game does not define a season or a team

    Yesterday was definitely a combination of two factors: our poor play and Dallas' excellent play. That Dallas O-line, oh man, I want it. They made holes big enough to drive a herd of cows through. I find that every year we have a game or two where we get, for lack of a better term, too cute. We...

    Cowboys fan wants to slap Wilson in the face

    Wait wait wait...Cowboy fans, who's QB last I checked is the master of the choke Tony Romo, are insulting OUR QB?! I honestly don't know how to respond to that. Uh, count the rings I guess?

    Who won this trade

    Yeah but Jennings won't be out that long. I think you both win. I personally like Ertz, got him in my league, and while he hasn't been what I'd hoped, the Eagles in general are sputtering, so I'm not putting it on him completely. With RBs like that, I'd definitely package a bench RB or two for...

    Rivers or Wilson?

    Either? Not trying to be non-committal, but both circumstances are pretty ideal. Against a weak D like Dallas I can see us trying to break in our rookies a bit more, both the ground and the air. I think we really mix it up here, but ultimately Wilson will have control. For SD, I think they will...

    Washington Post on Seahawks players' responses to the game

    You'd think the Post would have better things about their team to cover. Oh where to start: - Your team name is blatantly racist and EVERYONE agrees on it except you - Your field is so crappy it cost you your top player, perhaps permanently (let's face it, RG3 hasn't been the same). It cost us...

    Tailgating 101

    Best spot is where you make it. They're all packed, so get there in the morning. Unless the game is in the morning. Then get there REALLY EARLY in the morning. I like the lots just south of the stadium, maybe a block or two, along 4th or 1st. They tend to be a bit cheaper than the others (this...

    Flex: Michael Floyd or Arian Foster?

    Foster. He'll have a bit more rest under him against a shoddy Dallas D. I just don't see the Cards offensive line holding up under the billion dollar defensive front that Denver has.

    I trade for Maclin...

    Does anyone else see Cousins as a weird blend of Foles and Flynn? I can't shake that feeling. Shady is a whole different problem. I get the feeling that Kelly likes Sproles better. He seems to fit that flexible playing style that Kelly cultivated at Oregon better.

    Weirdest win or loss this season

    One matchup this week in my league: One team was down by 3 points with Gostkowski to go. Other team, nobody playing. As commish I do writeups each week, try to inject some humor into it and make it more than a simple "set your lineup and pray". I held off on writing her down as a win. I've been...

    Russell Wilson vs. Andrew Luck: The Debate Rages on!

    Andrew Luck is a great QB. He'll undoubtedly be one of the names we talk about for years to come. The Colts made no notable changes between the year they lost Manning and added Luck, other than the QB, and he turned them from nothing to something. But when it comes down to stats, Russell takes...

    Epic Fantasy Fail

    In my opinion, not cool. Keep a full roster and play it out. It's FF. Stuff happens. Sucky way to lose, but that's how the football gods roll

    AP - keep or drop

    6? No way. Jail or not, this is a goodwill/PR game the NFL is playing. The Vikes will want to distance himself from them as fast as possible. Another team MAY pick him up next season when the noise has died down, but I seriously doubt, in the wake of multiple abuse problems with players, no...

    AP - keep or drop

    First, is this a keeper league? That might be the only reason to keep him. Otherwise, he's not coming back this year. No matter what he says, he's going to get all the fallout from the NFL's mishandle of Rice. There are doctors reports, photos, etc documenting the kid's injuries. You don't come...

    Should I do this trade?

    I like the thought on dealing Thomas, but a TE that could is a game changer with the disparities there are between Graham/Gronk/Thomas...and everyone else. If you did that, you'd better pick up something huge for it.

    Tom Brady

    Bench him, put Cousins in as your starter. Brady isn't a bad backup to have for a bye week. Cousins will continue to churn up the yards. Or use him as trade bait. Either way, unless you're in a tight spot and have to drop him, no need to rush it. You're 3-0 as you said.

    Should I do this trade?

    How many teams in the league? So you need RBs, but would give up Pierce for Thomas? So you're not actually gaining a RB, just moving. Laterally if not downward. I don't like it to be honest. It's a downgrade in my opinion. I'd say hunt on waivers or go for a bigger fish. TEs are hard to come...

    PFF article on Sherman, Revis, and Peterson - LOL!

    I honestly never felt like there was much merit to this debate, except perhaps to entertain me in the offseason. Despite the numerous intangibles about Peterson's "superior athleticism" and Revis' "presence", at the end of the day it comes down to the win, and the stats in support of. Sherman...

    I lost by less than 1 point!!!!!!!!!!!

    When people ask me this, I always say: matchups? It matters people! Without knowing them, Benjamin at least. The rest are a tossup, but I shy away from getting cute and counting on lightening to strike twice (ie don't play Hurns) Gore and Ingram/Spiller. Remember Pierce got benched, not...

    The Ray Rice problem

    If he's in a 14 team league I'd think all these guys are long gone. Also, Donald Brown is on the Chargers now. But that said, if Khiry is somehow available, I'd grab him. They REALLY want him to be the lead back and he has the talent, but it's a pass first offense and Ingram will force him to...
