Thoughts on which is the better play, the old RB coming off a groin injury, or the younger guy who's already proven he isn't up to the task. Some of us need to start one of them. Thanks!

I've never found Brady particularly engaging in interviews or thought "I'd like to see him call a game." How do you think he'll do in his new job? I think he'll be average at best. Just a guy. I know Fox is paying for the name, but I don't think he'll bring anything particularly new or fresh to...

Despite our best research, sometimes we're just wrong about a guy. Who was your biggest mistake this year (underestimated or overestimated)? For me: Justin Jefferson. Perception on draft day: He's good, but way overrated. He's not on Kupp's level and the Vikings are a middling team focused on...

Wanted to see if we could keep an eye on player milestones that might affect contract bonuses, etc. that teams might help them achieve. Examples: Lamb has 91 receptions. Godwin has 89. Mike Evans needs 83 yards for 1,000. If they want to rest starters in week 18, they might want to get these...

That's a lot of guaranteed money and a lot of picks for a five-year deal. Wondering what people think the Browns need to accomplish (if anything) to look back and say it was worth it.  Edit: I voted reach at least one Super Bowl. Anything can happen in one game, but if they reach at least one...

Before the games start, I usually look back on a couple of errors I made on draft day that I wish I could take back. Of course, it might turn out they weren't errors at all, but good luck that seemed like an error (I "reached" for Devonta Freeman the year he broke out, and regretted it until the...

Seems like just going with the suspension would have put Dallas in a better position to make the playoffs. The schedule seemed a little easier for them at the beginning of the year, and they could have gotten the backups more game-ready knowing when they'd be playing instead of the weekly...

If you've been playing for a long time, you know these guys. They've won you titles, and cost you titles. Big trades in your league hinged on them. Sunday highlights belonged to them. And now, we say goodbye. Peyton Manning, Arian Foster and Jamaal Charles might all play in the NFL next year...

With a historic point spread in the Den/Jax game, most people are talking about the fantasy potential of Jaguars players...because the Broncos will probably rest starters some time in the third quarter. Even with such a great team playing such a bad team, that seems pretty presumptive in the...

Just wondering if anyone has any insight as to who Champ might shadow-- if he does that at all. I know he covered AJ Green exclusively, but does he normally pick a guy or cover a side or mix it up? Anyone know what side Floyd and Alexander normally take? Any insight appreciated. Thanks.

It seems like a foregone conclusion that the Saints will be moving on after Saturday night. I know "anybody can win" but I'm not seeing, hearing or reading much in the media about the Lions having a realistic chance to advance. Granted, the Saints have a terrific offense and have been perfect...

* Brady is less than 200 yards behind Brees headed into week 17. * Brady's team needs to win to guarantee HFA throughout the playoffs. He should play the full game. * Brees' team can secure a bye only if the 49ers fall to the Rams. * The teams all play at the same time. Suppose this happens...

With the game streaming on NFL.com and NBC's website, how will that affect television viewing? I understand it's an event and in the first few years it might just help people who have to work/can't be home to see the game. But over time I can see this taking away from TV viewers, and...

I didn't watch any of this game, but the stat line shows Austin had one rush for -9 yards. Just wondering what the play actually was designed to be. If it was a pass that went behind the line (counting as a run) but could be reversed to a reception later in the week, it could affect a game in...

The Jets deserve a lot of credit for their playoff run, and while I think it ends in Indy you never know. But I wonder if this deep run isn't setting up Sanchez for unrealistic expectations-- especially in New York. I think he's played well for a rookie and the team isn't putting him in...

I think the intention of the "Rooney Rule"-- to make sure minorities get opportunities to obtain coaching positions-- is good, but the implementation is absurd. Everyone knows that Seattle wants Pete Carroll to be their next coach. But they have to interview a minority candidate...so they pursue...

I know there was a previous thread where David suggested that the Patriots would play their starters and try to win, using some good history to show that they often try to end the season with a successful finale and head into the playoffs with momentum. While that was a rationale supported by...

Anyone have a target but miss out on him in ALL of your leagues? I think Donald Brown has a lot of potential this year and I wanted to see his name on a roster or two. But I missed out on him every time. As a side topic, if you have a target do you make sure you get him...or just keep an eye...

Yes, I know this is the time you're supposed to pity the Super Bowl loser and heap praise on their gritty performance and blah blah blah. I expect to hear from * Steelers fans willing to toss out some praise to the team that never wins anything as they celebrate their sixth world title. It's...

I like a lot of their players, I've enjoyed watching them in the playoffs and I'll be rooting for them to claim their first ring. But if they lose, they're just another team that had a nice little run in the playoffs and came up short-- Like the '94 Chargers or '98 Falcons. I can respect the...
