A QB probably won you a championship this week or lost you one. Such is the disparity of life. Let’s review with a special QB-centric version of this week’s studs and duds.

DET @ MIA Start: Calvin Johnson You have to. If you’re in the Championship, Calvin is one of the guys that got you there. Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games. Man, I sounded like Ron Jaworski there. Brandon Marshall Same as above about big-time players. Marshall’s been having a down year, but had [...]

So, these are the guys you should stay away from in these last weeks of fantasy [...]

ATL @ SEA Start: Michael Turner, RB, and Roddy White, WR, Atlanta Falcons–The Seahawks haven’t been able stop top notch receivers or running back all seasons and it doesn’t look like they’ve got what it takes to stop Atlanta’s top weapons, Turner and White. Both appear to be heating up as the season ends, which [...]

We did this last week…and now we’re back for more! As I wrote last week, just because a player has a bad matchup doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t start them. An example: coming into last week, Tom Brady had the second worst statistical matchup, but he excelled as his Patriots crushed the Bears. You’re just [...]

STL @ NO Start: Marques Colston, WR, New Orleans Saints–While Colston’s season started off slow like the rest of the Saints’ offense, he has come back in a big way. He has five touchdowns in his last six games and has the second-most receptions in the league on the season. Coupled with the fact that [...]

If you’re in the playoffs in your fantasy football league, there’s likely one reason and one reason only—you’ve got a stud quarterback. Or, at least two decent quarterbacks and you’re smart enough to play the one with the best matchup. Because, just like real life, a good fantasy team is worthless without a good quarterback. [...]
