Week 3 Booms and Busts: Late Games

Week Three Booms QB Russell Wilson, SEA: The Seahawks are much better than their 0-2 record indicates.  The Bears are not.  Chicago has been gashed for seven passing touchdowns already this season, which is worst in the league.  Enter a Seattle passing attack still looking to incorporate it's new, shiny toy in Jimmy Graham.  The Seahawks […]

NFL Survivor League Picks: Top Targets & Avoids for Survivor Pools (Week 2)

Week 1 of the NFL saw the favorites win nine of 13 contests. I correctly picked the Jets and Cardinals to win, but unfortunately the Bucs were hammered.

Dallas Cowboys @ Green Bay Packers: NFL Playoffs Recap

Dallas Cowboys @ Green Bay Packers Let’s start with that sorta-but-not-really-a-catch-call shall we?
