Week 6 Rankings Analysis: Nick Mariano vs. Industry Consensus

Week 5 was good eatin’. Last week we said Matthew Stafford was a good play, and while he only posted 180 yards, his 3 TDs really buoyed his value and illustrated how having zero "true" running backs can affect things. Matt Ryan also got slipped below Brian Hoyer, Dak Prescott and Jameis Winston, which was […]

NFL Survivor League Picks – Survivor Pool Targets and Avoids (Week 6)

Through five weeks of the season, it’s safe to pronounce the Houston Texans as this year’s good bad team. They’ll defeat the bad teams, but get crushed by the good ones.

Week 5 Rankings Analysis: Nick Mariano vs. Industry Consensus

Howdy again folks, and hopefully you're all ready to fully lose yourselves into football now that baseball season is over. Week 4 wasn't the prettiest for the QB and RB calls, but WR and TE were perfect. We correctly called that Brandin Cooks was definitely not top-10 WR material, that Mike Evans needed to be […]

Week 4 Rankings Analysis: Nick Mariano vs. Industry Consensus

Week 3 went pretty well for us. We pushed Ben Roethlisberger down a few slots and said we didn’t have faith in Ryan Tannehill.
