So you’re nervous about Aaron Rodgers.

I figured I would just jump right to it; Rodgers hasn’t been great since the Packers came off their Bye week. But he hasn’t been terrible, and he isn’t the one you should worry about.  Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audible For Packers Vs. Lions”

Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Bills Vs. Jets

I like Rex Ryan.

Seriously, I like everything about him. He tells it like it is, he’s good at his job, and he knows how to bring a group together.

Think about his tenure as head coach of the New York Jets and what he was able to accomplish. Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Bills Vs. Jets”

Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Browns Vs. Bengals

Gio Bernard (439 RuYards, 141 ReYards, 2 touchdowns) looks like a strong play tonight against a Cleveland Browns team that has been generous to the position all season.

Can I be the one to tell Browns fans that tonight isn’t going to be their night?

Thursday Night Football has offered up some great games for us this 2015 season but, unfortunately, this isn’t going to be one of those games.  Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Browns Vs. Bengals”

Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Audibles For Dolphins Vs. Patriots

Tom Terrific: Brady has torched opposing teams to the tune of 2,054 yards, 16 touchdowns (one interception) and a 113.2 rating.

I’m sorry, Patriot fans.

I was blinded by $100 million dollar Defensive Tackles and shiny up and coming Quarterbacks in South Beach. I was fooled by defensive geniuses aligning themselves with the unbelievable talent in Buffalo. The jury is still out, but I was also a little head over heels for “Gang Green” after Geno got punched in the jaw.  Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Audibles For Dolphins Vs. Patriots”

I remember a time not very long ago when this game had a lot more Fantasy star power.

One of the more underrated rivalries now, not long ago before the San Francisco player exodus, NFC Championship conversation began and ended in the Pacific Northwest with these two teams. Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Audibles For Seahawks Vs. 49ers”

Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Falcons Vs. Saints

The Falcons seemed to have figured out the Drew Brees factor (0-2, 646 yards, 2 touchdowns, 3 INT's in 2014). Can he turn it around for fantasy owners against an improved Falcons defense? (Photo: The Times-Picayune)
The Falcons seemed to have figured out the Drew Brees problem (0-2, 646 yards, 2 touchdowns, 3 INT’s in 2014) that troubled them for so long. Can Brees be trusted to turn it around for fantasy owners against an improved Falcons defense tonight in New Orleans? (Photo: The Times-Picayune)

It’s funny how fortunes have changed in the span of 10 months for the Falcons.  Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Falcons Vs. Saints”

Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Colts Vs. Texans

Do not, I repeat, do not be afraid to take a chance on Matt Hasselbeck tonight against the Texans. (Photo: Sam Greenwood/Getty Images North America)

This game lost a little bit of its shine for me once it was reported that Andrew Luck would be forced to miss his second consecutive start due to injury.

Not to say there still isn’t plenty of intrigue. Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Football Audibles For Colts Vs. Texans”

Thursday Night Audibles will be a season long weekly series that helps you fill (or unfill) those last-minute roster holes before the fantasy football week begins

If there were a “can’t miss” Thursday Night Football game this year this would probably rank among them.

I say that for two reasons; the first being that the Giants and Washington have an opportunity tonight to change perceptions about their teams in the NFC East to a national audience early. Continue reading “Fantasy Football 2015: Thursday Night Audibles For Redskins Vs. Giants”
