Sorry for the confusion: since the re-tooling of the site the people-powerful men and women, all of them-behind the scenes are still sorting through all the hamsters that operate the levers and cogs that make this place purr. It's an arduous, hands-on process that involved a mass firing and then

TO THE GAMES! Fins/Broncs: Another rook wr in a great incoming class that should have more folks wagging their chins is Denver's Jeudy but poor qb play has held him back. He's been targeted 32 times in this month's games but only has 15 grabs. But he's made the most of them-his

We're all a bit curious to see how things shake out down Bourbon Street way, aren't we? Stupid thoughts to follow... TO THE GAME! Eagles/Browns: Is wr Reagor the next rook to break big? The last 2 weeks his target share has been 23% and 20% and the Browns have given up huge

I just jinxed it, didn't I? You can blame me after the game when you look at Hopkins' 3 catches, 45 yards stat line. The game does look promising and there a number of quality tilts on offer this weekend. (unlike the first two "Point and Laugh" games featured on

The fantasy football satellite radio channel I listen to told me that this was a week of 'bad beats' and to just 'move on' which struck me as odd. You see, I was projected to lose in all five of my leagues and ended winning in four of them. (if

The last two sunsets this week have been almost blood red and that's got me to brooding. Brooding about a lot of things but most times those other thoughts are pushed aside and my appetite takes over. It's more of a longing, a yearning to cleanse myself and society in

TO THE GAMES! Broncos/Raiders: Nobody seems to be talking about how efficient Derek Carr is this season. The Raiders O has been helped immensely by his 16/2 TD/INT ratio. That man takes good Carr of the ball, amirite? Guh, bad pun is bad. Denver has struggled through the 5th hardest sked with

Well, it's looks as though all my whining and carrying on has been heard by the powers that be and we'll get a half-decent number of games on the late end. But I never thought things all the way through. We've got ourselves a real mixed bag here. Shall we put

TO THE GAME! Colts/Titans: -I get the feeling the Titans are gathering themselves for another run. Maybe not just yet but soon. They tweeked their underperforming D by nabbing Des King (who ran back an intercept for a TD in his first game. Thankyouverymuch) They also have taken above average cb Adoree

There's a lot not to like about the tilt on offer tonight if you're a fan of well-played football. There's not likely any meaty fantasy action to be had here. We'll waddle on through as we always do though. Fallout: -Someone who has fallen out of a job (for now) is Takk

TO THE GAME! Saints/Bucs: This should be a headliner between the old fogies stating at qb but Antonio Brown has a way of making himself the center of attention. Should you start him? Well, the Saints have given up the most fantasy points to wr's the last four weeks so why not? Where

TO THE GAMES! Raiders/Chargers: That durn rook qb Herbert is 4th in the league in QB rating while passing on third downs. It wasn't supposed to be this easy but the slipper keeps on fitting. The Raiders don't defend outside the numbers very well so wr Williams might see some action and
