Another factor is across the league, rushing stats are down, a lot. RB scores just aren't what they have been in years back. I'm almost starting to think in PPR you should start trying to find a 3rd WR rather than a 3rd RB as your first choice for a flex spot if the trend continues.

First: Redzone, outside of the Niners I can't even watch the NFL unless it is on Redzone anymore. I don't watch the Sunday or Monday night games specifically because of the commercials. Second: The commercials I am sick of seeing are that stupid NFL.com fantasy football one where the...

Yeah, the whole point of Boldin was to have someone who could win the battle for the ball against some of these NFC West corners. The Niners get absolutely destroyed by tough man coverage and Boldin was suppose to be the guy to help them beat that. Crabtree/Boldin/Davis looks to be a pretty...

FWIW The N4 isn't compatible with Verizon's network. I would wager a guess that the N5 won't either (but we will see). You may want to have a back-up plan if you plan on sticking with Verizon. Also I am pretty sure that I read they aren't producing any more N4's.

What kind of beer? Some beers have a little yeast left in them that is suppose to be mixed up in the beer. If sitting upright for a long time that yeast can settle out. (Only thing I can think of off the top of my head). Also should note, some beers have yeast left in them that is NOT...

hmmm, who wins between NY Giants and Tampa Bay...

Nope, Jacksonville is still an NFL team... *edit: Oh, you said 31... yeah, probably.

Fears being realized.

I must of have missed the original info request. Hopworks is one of my favorites down there. Deschutes has some really awesome looking growlers, little spendy but worth it, I am convinced they are magical and make beer taste better.

1 game according to substance abuse policy, but he will get more because he has crossed into the 'good of the game' area. Guessing 4 appealed down to 2.

Yeah, that is really a coin-flip choice in my eyes so go with your gut. I would go with Pierce since Ridley is probably another fumble away from getting benched again.

Every team (or maybe it is the league) offers a 'no questions asked, no cost' ride service that is available to every player. Also the NFLPA just released an app for the players so that they could take advantage of Uber. A 49ers linebacker was just tweating about it encouraging players to take...

Yeah, not pretty choices, I would rank them Hilton/Gordon/Moore/Shorts, but if Hilton doesn't go I would also look at the waiver wire. Doug Baldwin is a possible option, only owned in 15% of leagues, going against Jacksonville and has good "chemistry" with Skee Lo.

Aldon Smith arrestedon suspicion of DUI this morning. /sigh Looking more and more like this guys career is going to get derailed by legal issues.

You know who else was getting a ton of targets, Anquan Boldin. Playing in a much better offense with a much better QB he managed just 1 catch for 7 yards against Seattle. I would say that *maybe* Shorts gets some catches in garbage time when Seattle puts their back-ups in like it is a...

I've done one Tough Mudder and am signed up again to do the Seattle area one this October. I had a blast the first time I did it. It was challenging but it reminded me a lot of running around in the woods as a kid. They are spendy, but TM supports the Wounded Warrior project (over $5...

Yeah, my advice up there was Kaep vs Vick. Brees qualifies as one of those studs you run out there every week regardless of match-up. Between the two I would have picked Brees, has just as much upside as Vick and isn't nearly the risk to either put up a stinker or get hurt. Another reason...

I'm all in for anyone playing against Philly at this point. That defense can't stop anyone right now (and no way their issues get fixed in a short week) and their offense promotes shoot-outs. Whether or not Chip Kelly's offense translates to success in the NFL, it is looking like a fantasy...

Sproles is a no-brainer start in PPR this week. I think you are getting to cute on Spiller, he is your stud (most likely) first round pick, play him like one. It's not like CJ is lighting the world on fire. Chargers D has been tougher against the run than the numbers are showing.

Seattle fans are in a tissy about that, seemed like an obvious troll to me. Seahawks fans get so offended any time anyone criticize their crowd noise. I love accusing them of piping in sound, that makes them go full agro.

Cameron was available on waivers? That surprises me, try to trade whichever one of the two has a big week to strengthen your RB or WR depth, as I don't think either one of the two TE's will be that far apart at the end of the year. Also, don't thank me yet, did you see my track record for...

You cannot compare point production across positions like that. Look at how the trade effects the entirety of your lineup. What kind of advantage point wise are you gaining at RB, and what kind of point advantage are you giving up at TE? And yes, I still make the deal if I have Graham (and...

Everything I am reading says Davis starts. I am all in on Cameron this season... but I also don't carry 2 TE's (you should consider this next year). Indy is ranked dead last against the TE this season, I probably start Davis if I were you. For your flex, I start Sproles. I like starting a...

Standard scoring or PPR?

That offer is still on the table and you haven't taken it...? STOP comparing the two guys, you cannot look at it like that. You have to look at it this way, is your line-up better with J. Thomas and J. Rodgers or is it better with T. Richardson and ? Also, if you are stuck with starting a...

Well, Pryor did manage to run all over that Indy defense and Kaep is playing at home, and so far KC is the top ranked D against opposing QB's. But right now I'd have a hard time not starting Vick. #3 ranked QB overall in standard scoring and the only way Philly has a chance of winning any games...

I personally don't carry a backup QB at all. Not that hard to find a serviceable starter at the QB position on the waiver wire when you are on bye and it allows you to stash some more RB/WR options.

I'm not a fan of pumpkin beers, but for those who are:

So... what are some of your favorite sites for football coverage? Generally I dislike ESPN but I thought the divisional bloggers did a really good job. Well now they split the coverage up to individual teams and even though each team has its own reporter somehow the coverage is way worse than...

So I haven't followed this thread much so sorry if this theory has been floated:

The first 6 months I lived with my now wife was like a damn honeymoon the entire time. I'd say at least a year, if not 2 and you need to have at least one major fight where there is nowhere to run.

Mike Holmgren was at the game last night and was asked which was louder, last night or the NFC Championship game against Carolina. He said the Carolina game and it wasn't even close. 'Hawks still have a tough road schedule and I still maintain whichever team between the Hawks and Niners wins...

Star Fleets mission is one of peace and exploration. Marcus believes that war with the Klingons is not only inevitable, but already happening and outside his one covert ship and a secret military program hidden under some archives, Star Fleet is not ready for the war that is coming. He needs...

War equals funding and support to take his goals of militarizing Star Fleet into the mainstream. Since Marcus was operating off the books so-to-speak, it isn't to much of a stretch to assume who ever is in charge of shooting those guns didn't know wtf to do or who to target since it was two Star...

So, he doesn't like the rules, doesn't mean he isn't going to tell his team to feel free to play with-in them. He suppose to put his team at a competitive disadvantage over principle?

So I ended up with a terrible fantasy week this week. I'm going to end up with the lowest points total scored by one of my teams in years and I think 90% of the advice I tried to divvy out this week ended up being dead wrong (my apologies). I am really glad I decided not to keep a backup QB...

So Seattle sports talk is blowing up about a couple of hits put on Skee Lo. The one where he was faking the read-option and another on the sidelines. Both were verified as league hits but Seattle still has their panties in a wad claiming the intent was to hurt the QB. All I can say is "no...

So a local Orlando TV station is apologizing for airing the Jags game.

No, the purpose the dome serves is to keep the crowd/team from getting wet. The fact that it enhances crowd noise is a by-product of that, not a design element.

I can't think of one stadium that was built under specific marching orders from the owner of the team to the architect to be designed in a way to enhance crowd noise. That was the #1 design priority handed down to the people who built C-Link. You were asked to provide other examples of...
