How Much Attention Should We Give WR/CB Matchups?

Depending on who you ask, you will get widely varying answers.

Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis: Rams vs Bears

After salivating over the high scoring potential of fast-paced offenses last week, Week 7’s Monday night matchup feels downright underwhelming.
