Time for the final Offensive Tendencies article for the NFL season. It has been a fun season with some great calls and of course some misses but I hope you have enjoyed reading the column as much as I have enjoyed writing it. So, for this weekend’s…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Wild Card Weekend

Time for the Playoff Edition of the Offensive Tendencies article. With only four games in the Wild Card round, the gaps to find increased opportunities is very limited. So, I will once again be utilizing the “Hot Sheet” style that I used…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 14

Week 13 went well with my Top Plays for the week finishing in first place out of 22 experts graded in our NFL Week 13 Expert Grading Recap article. I will look to try to build on that success in Week 14 with a full slate of 16 games as we have…

NFL Value Index - Week 14

Week 13 was a slate chock full of receiver value. Being able to utilize that value allowed you to pay up for the top RBs easily, and if you did that, you likely were profitable. I started to look at things differently last week, and it was…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 8

Welcome to Week 8 of the Offensive Tendencies article. Hard to believe after this week the NFL season will be about half way completed. With six teams on bye this week and another game in London on Sunday morning, in addition to the usually…

NFL Value Index - Week 8

I for one am glad to see Week 7 of the 2016 NFL season come and pass. Like Gandalf vs. the Balrog, I wanted to slam my staff into a concrete bridge and plummet to the abyss below. If you have never seen the Lord of the Rings trilogy...well,…

NFL Value Index - Week 6

I have rewritten this intro this week at least four times. I have not liked what has spewed from my fingertips, so instead let's talk about the Dallas Cowboys (where my allegiance lies0 for a moment. They are doing something pretty great,…

NFL Value Index - Week 3

NFL Value Well, damn, that escalated quickly. In my season-long leagues, especially PPR leagues, I avoided taking RBs early. I knew injuries would happen and I could snag a few guys off the waiver wire. But I expected that to happen maybe…
