Howdy again folks, and hopefully you're all ready to fully lose yourselves into football now that baseball season is over.

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.
