After draining the dramatic game-winning 3-pointer from several feet beyond the arc against the defending world champion Dallas Mavericks, Kevin Durant was just as he always is; calm and in control. The two-time defending scoring champion doesn’t just score, he scores in the clutchest of moments. That’s right, I said clutchest. We all have known for a while now about this guy’s ability to fill [...]

Okay, I’ll admit right off the bat, the touchdown celebration was funny. But there is a time to be funny, and a time to do the right thing for your team. You obviously worked hard to prepare for your matchup with Darelle Revis, and for all intensive purposes, you were getting the better of him. BUT THEN… you got the clever idea in your head [...]

This is a story about two Harbaughs, their journeys through the football world, and the quest to bring toughness back in a league with rising puffcake-penalties and fines. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, the success speaks for itself. The Harbaughs were both born in Toledo, Ohio and grew up in the Ann Arbor area of Michigan. Their father Jack, was an assistant coach for the Wolverines [...]

Since when was an average quarterback who hasn’t taken a snap in over nine months worth not one, but two first round draft picks? I know this is the Raiders, but I think this might have been considered to be a little crazy even by the late Al Davis’ standards. Palmer better be more productive than he’s been the past couple of years. I’ve always loved [...]

There are a lot of great matchups to choose from in week 3, but no other matchup has a history that includes 22 world championships between the two teams. More importantly, both these teams are in the NFC North, and just like last year, this game could play a big part in home-field advantage in the playoffs. It’s no secret that the offensive line for [...]

So this is the guy who fails his Oregon teammates by knocking out a kid from Boise St. during a heated exchange after a game in Boise. This was while they were both still suited up and on the field no less. THEN, after being lucky enough to be drafted, he gets in to a scuffle at a Titans practice in Tennessee. I mean, seriously? [...]

First of all, let’s all make sure that we understand what qualifies as a bust. If someone were to say that Ricky Williams is not likely to be a big factor in fantasy thisseason, they wouldn’t really be calling a bust, more just spouting out common knowledge. The player has to be relevant and have a fairly large following of people who believe he will [...]

On a scale of 1 - 5, I project both the actual impact to their real teams these players will have this year, and their fantasy football impact for 2011. Julio Jones, WR Falcons - Roddy White has needed a legitimate complimentary wide-out with the talent of Julio Jones for a while now. Julio has arrived to the NFL, and much sooner than later, he [...]

In the fantasy football world, there is something known as handcuffing running backs. It is basically capitalizing on a weak run defense with more than one of the key backfield ball handlers for the opposition. At the same time, you would be limiting this player’s likely performance ’ceiling’ for the day because you already know the carries will be split. Thus, we have the term handcuffing. There [...]

Getting even better this season will be Tampa Bay Quarterback Josh Freeman. The emergence of Blount in the backfield will continue to draw defenses in and open things up for Freeman to operate. He is a big quarterback who plays to win, regardless of stats. Part of that statement would make a fantasy player hesitate to pull the trigger on him. But I say, go for it. [...]
