Monday Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 16)

I usually start this column with "another week, another Monday," but that would be inappropriate this time around. Yes, today is actually Saturday, but this Monday isn't just any Monday either – it's a double order of Monday football that is going to determine fantasy champions all over the world! And while we're at it, […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 14)

RotoBallers – another week, another Monday, and another Tom Brady primetime game! Stop me if you've heard this before: the Patriots enter tonight looking to extend their league-best win streak as they look to take another step towards securing the #1 overall seed in the AFC. Though this seems to be a yearly tradition, here […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 13)

RotoBallers – another week, another Monday! And a big Monday at that, as many fantasy owners take their final stab at a playoff spot. Coming off of the lowest-scoring Monday night game since Week 6, the football gods have blessed us with plenty of fantasy goodness as the red-hot Steelers travel to Cincinnati to face the […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 12)

RotoBallers – another week, another Monday! For all of the bad football that we've seen in the NFL this year, the last few weeks of nationally televised games have actually been pretty good. The last two Monday night games have had total scores over 60 and have featured some of the NFC's best teams in […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 11)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. 2017 hasn't exactly gone to plan for the Atlanta Falcons. I'll save you the details that you already know, but it all dates back to February 5th, when the Falcons ended up on the wrong side of the record books during the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history. Entering […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 10)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. Tonight's Monday Night Football matchup pits together two teams going in very different directions. Once 4-2 with early playoff hopes, the Dolphins now find themselves trying to avoid a third consecutive loss in as many weeks, all under the national spotlight in primetime. They'll have to do so without (former) […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 9)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. This season hasn't quite gone as planned for the Green Bay Packers. One of the preseason favorites to reach Super Bowl LII (that's 52), there's been a bit of a change of plans. Ever since lord and savior Aaron Rodgers went down with a broken collarbone in Week 6, the […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Trade Deadline Analysis

It's been a pretty crazy last few days in football land. Despite six teams on a bye week, half of this weekend's twelve games ended within one score, including the possible game of the year between Texans and Seahawks in Seattle. And if Week 8 of football wasn't enough action, the last 48 hours have […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 7)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. Unlike last week, tonight's Monday Night Football matchup pits together two divisional teams on the upswing. The Redskins visit Philadelphia having won three of their last four with the passing attack finally starting to click. Meanwhile, the Eagles might be the hottest team in football, looking for their fifth […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 6)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. That means more football! This week's Monday Night Football pits the bottom of the AFC South against each other as the 2-3 Colts head to Tennessee to take on the 2-3 Titans. In a division that is very much still up for grabs, both teams are still looking to overcome […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Bit By The Injury Bug?

There's always the inevitable weeks where most of the major storylines coming out are injury-related. Unfortunately, Week 5 was one of those week's as one of the biggest fantasy stars was lost for the season. But it didn't stop with Odell Beckman. The Giants also lost Brandon Marshall for the year, Rob Gronkowski was surprisingly […]


Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 5)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! Another week, another Monday. But hey, at least you're not Chris Foerster (if you haven't caught up yet, that's the Dolphins offensive line coach who had a video leaked doing cocaine before a team meeting). Tonight's matchup sends the 2-2 Vikings to Chicago to take on the 1-3 Bears, as both teams look […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Trust Your Big Guns

After a Week 1 where six teams failed to score double digit points and a Week 2 where the same amount of teams failed to even score a touchdown, Week 3 was the breath of fresh air that fans were waiting for in this young season (on the field). Exactly half of the games played finished […]


Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis (Week 3)

Happy Monday RotoBallers! While you might be back at work and/or on the grind today, there's always some solace in knowing that Monday Night Football awaits. And if yesterday's Sunday slate was a preview of what's to come tonight, we should be in for a good one. The 1-1 Cowboys travel to the 1-1 Cardinals […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Buy Low, Sell High

Two weeks into any fantasy season is my favorite time. No, it's not because I'm always 2-0 and vindicated by all of my amazing draft picks – but it's because now is the ideal time to buy low and sell high. Many owners are ready to hit the panic button, and this year's rash of […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Weathering The Storm

On the field, Week 1 was fairly lackluster – six teams scored in the single digits, and many of the week's marquee games ended up being duds. For fantasy purposes however, Week 1 was action packed and game-changing. The most noteworthy news, of course, is mostly-consensus #1 pick David Johnson headed to the IR, but […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag – Let The Games Begin!

Football is back! After 213 days of free agent signings, training camp reports, beat writer projections, and fantasy drafts, the new NFL season officially gets underway tonight as the Patriots welcome Kansas City to Foxboro. That typically triggers a sense of excitement to fans and fantasy players, but it can also trigger anxiety and hasty decision […]


Fantasy Football Mailbag - Zeke Backup Plans, the Redskins' Offense, & QB Strategy

Thanks to everyone who reached out with questions for our first ever fantasy football mailbag! As this will be a weekly feature throughout the entirety of the upcoming season, please continue to direct any/all questions by using #RotoBallerMailbag on Twitter or by emailing [email protected]. As if the first set of preseason games doesn't signify the […]


2017 PPR Rankings Analysis - Tight Ends

As NFL training camps kick into full gear, we take a position-by-position look at the RotoBaller PPR fantasy football rankings to help prepare you for draft day. In case you missed it, here are our running back and wide receiver analysis columns. And that leaves us with the often forgotten, often undervalued tight end position (since QB rankings don't differ from […]


2017 PPR Rankings Analysis - Wide Receivers

As NFL training camps kick into gear, we take a position-by-position look at the RotoBaller PPR player rankings to help prepare you for draft day. Stop me if you've heard this before, but the NFL is a passing league. In 2006, just two teams averaged 250+ passing yards per game. Ten seasons later, nearly half of the […]


2017 PPR Rankings Analysis - Running Backs

As the start of NFL training camps quickly approaches, we take a position-by-position look at the RotoBaller PPR player rankings to help prepare you for draft day. With the recent surge of the running back by committee approach in the NFL, looking at stats like total offensive touches and trends like snaps taken has become increasingly important […]
