Monday Night Football Matchups and Starts/Sits (Week 1)

I don't, though, so let's progress with the analysis instead. Since 2006, the NFL has graced us with a Monday Night Football doubleheader in Week 1 - a tradition which […]

The Method to the Matchups Madness - An In-Depth Look

Conference Championship Game Picks - NFL Playoff Predictions

Championship Sunday has arrived and boy did it take some dumb stupid coaching decisions to get here.

Heroes and Zeroes - Divisional Round Fantasy Football Picks

I have to admit I'm a bit peeved that LeSean McCoy miraculously healed from his ankle injury in time to ruin my Marcus Murphy sleeper pick.
