Start & Sit: Week 1
 
Our first Start/Sit of the season did not go entirely as planned yesterday. I guess I still am shaking off some of the rust, as Jason Campbell looked lost in the new offensive system in Washington and Eli Manning was not as terrible as I thought he would be, though he probably was not good enough to start for your fantasy team this week. In other news about starting this week, Antonio Gates ...

Hasty AFC predictions
 
Like everyone else, last night’s game between the Giants and Redskins didn’t quench my thirst for some regular season football action. Don’t get me wrong, I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve once I got home from work and turned on the pregame festivities. But I think that this Sunday’s action is going to be the coup de gras for my summer-long football boredom. But ...

Daily Haze: Contest winner
 
First, congratulations to commenter mxd737 for submitting the winning fantasy football team name in our recent contest . “My Vick in a Box” scored 332 total votes, representing 40 percent of the total votes casted. If it had been a political election, it would have qualified as a landslide. The runner-up, “Kibbles’n'Vicks”, made away with 17 percent of the ...

Start & Sit special: Thursday night football
 
T-minus 5+ hours and counting down to the kickoff the first NFL regular season game of 2008 tonight, when the Giants and Redskins do battle in the Meadowlands. The Giants are coming off an improbable run through the playoffs and an unpredictable win against the then-unbeaten New England Patriots to win the Super Bowl last year. But the questions still remain for the G-men this season, ...

 Hasty NFC predictions
Hasty NFC predictions
With the 2008 NFL regular season kicking off tonight, it is about time to roll out some predictions for this season. Matter of fact, today is the last day I could roll these out without a guilty conscience. Since the Giants and Redskins, both NFC teams, kick things off tonight, I will roll out the NFC predictions today and the AFC ones tomorrow. New York Giants fans, be warned. Even ...

More on Tom Brady’s “injury”
 
I picked up a rumor floating around the internet last Friday that suggested Patriots’ quarterback Tom Brady could miss as many as the first four weeks of the regular season. I realize it was just a rumor, but it makes for good fantasy football fodder, particularly when it comes to taunting and prodding the Brady owner in your league. I mean, how good would the Brady owners’ ...

We play fake football according to some. Why not give out some fake hardware to go with our fake football? If fantasy football bloggers are good at anything, it is making predictions. Be they logical or not, I have yet to meet a ffblogger not ...
Daily Haze: Rudi awakening
 
See what I did there? Rudi awakening, instead of Rude awakening. Get it? No? Maybe this will help clear things up a bit: It appears as if Tatum Bell jacked Rudi Johnson’s stuff when Rudi reported to Detroit for service. Seriously, Tatum? How old are you? Here are today’s great reads: Temper your expectations for these players as of week one. [FF Toolbox] Bill ...

Daily Haze: Tuesday morning rehab
 
A flood of injury news came in yesterday after I posted the Monday morning rehab . Convenient. So instead of waiting a week to post these stories, which would be irresponsible on my part since they are relevant now, consider this Daily Haze an extensive of the MMR. If you want to call it the Tuesday morning rehab, I don’t hate it. Derek Anderson and Braylon Edwards practiced on ...

Rudi Johnson signs with Detroit
 
Matt Millen lied. Earlier I reported that Rudi Johnson had worked out for the Detroit Lions after being cut by Cincinnati, but that Millen said no deal was imminent. Well, that was a big fat lie as Johnson has agreed to a one-year contract to play football in Motor City this year. So what does all this mean for fantasy footballers? First of all, bump Kevin Smith down your cheat sheets ...

Notable camp casualties
 
All NFL teams were required to pare their rosters down to 53 men this past weekend, and in doing so several notable names hit the open market. Also still missing from an NFL roster: Shaun Alexander. His name has not come up lately and I have not heard of him making any visits to NFL teams. I think at this point he may only play this season if a team loses a starting runningback to injury ...

Daily Haze: Gustav > Labor Day
I know today is Labor Day and most people around this great nation are enjoying the time off work, hopefully have some nice weather and are firing up the grill for one of the final times this summer. However, our brethren in Louisiana are getting hit by Hurricane Gustav today. It is no secret that I am a New Orleans/Baton Rouge boy. I love the New Orleans Saints, went to and graduate ...
Tom Brady to miss two-to-four weeks?
 
Internet rumor has it that Patriots’ pretty boy quarterback Tom Brady may miss the first two-to-four weeks of the regular season. NFL Juice picked up an anonymous tip from a “reliable news source” that Brady could miss several games due to his mysterious foot injury. According to NFL Juice, the source has been right before when it came to an unsubstantiated rumor, so there ...

Daily Haze: Less than a week to go
 
So many links today, you would think the regular season is right around the corner or something. Oh yeah. It is. The 2008 preseason wrapped up last night and, thankfully, none of my fantasy players fell to injury this year. I dodged a bullet, but I am sure other fantasy owners may not be as lucky. Sorry, but remember to check back on Monday for all the latest injury news in the Monday ...
