Ravens Defense Will Have Earl Thomas Against Patriots

Baltimore Ravens safety Earl Thomas (knee), who didn't practice on Wednesday, said he will play on Sunday night against the Patriots in Week 9.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) and cornerback Jimmy Smith (knee) both returned to practice on Wednesday.

The All-Regression Team

The NFL season has reached its halfway point. About half of the league has played eight games, and the rest of the league has played seven with their byes out of the way. With the regular season half over, it's likely the majority of your fantasy regular season is over as well. We've seen some […]

The Forthcoming Resurrection of Cam Newton

After Kyle Allen’s 4-0 start as the starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, many fans and analysts were clamoring for his permanent placement atop the depth chart.

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

We're heading into the ninth week of NFL football now. Time flies and all that, right? Week 8 was one of those weeks where it can be hard to watch football, as the matchups weren't great and the best teams kept winning and anyone who had to play against Tevin Coleman had a really bad […]

Mid-Season Awards: MVP's and LVP's

When it comes to awards, everything is subjective. Some people just go with the best player at each position. That is fine in real football but not in fantasy football. Christian McCaffrey has had the best season as a running back, but as the first or second pick in drafts, he needed to do so […]

We're just days away from crossing the halfway mark of the season. It sucks, I know, but we fantasy owners can't lose time crying and lamenting about what we can't fix.
