Welcome to Stat-o-Matic where we will look at some advanced stats around the NFL. As a disclaimer, I am using this space to play around with some numbers and present some interesting findings. But, by no means is this validated or predictive data. I hope that it will lead to meaningful discoveries or it could inspire you to go down your own rabbit hole. We’re going to explore together, crunch some numbers and see what pops out. Stats courtesy of PlayerProfiler.com.

I’ve been talking about this since last season and I’m sure no doubt you’ve heard about it plenty this off-season as well. Arian Foster went over the 400 touch mark in 2012, finishing the playoffs with 460 total on the season. Now there are great achievements you want your running backs to unlock over the course of the season. You love it when they clear 1000 yards rushing. It’s great when they clear the 10 touchdown total as well. But joining the Misfortune 400 List isn’t exactly something to strive for as history can attest to. Consider this a pre-draft warning that Foster is going to carry a lot more risk in 2013 than many will assume. To find out what I mean by this, pretend I’m the ghost of fantasy football season’s yet to come and you’re Ebenezer Scrooge as we journey into what the future might hold for Arian for 2013 fantasy football…but wait, there’s more! But not about Arian, this is about Facebook. In particular the Razzball Facebook page. For many years, we couldn’t stand each other. We just HAD to have a different Facebook page for each sport and we were spreading the love thin. Well, now you can go to one place on the Facebook interwebs to get your Razzball lovin cuz like a human centipede, we’ve merged into one page! That exclamation was for excitement not sarcasm! Ok a little sarcasm but mostly excitement! So if you could, mosey on over to that Razzball Facebook link and caress it, hold it, love it, and lick the screen. After all that, all we really wanted was a ‘Like’ from you and a ‘follow’ if you’re in the mood for such things. We don’t ask much…ok, we will ask for one more thing. You see that big mural of how we’ll work for fantasy sports? Yeah, like that too. Maybe if you’re lucky, we’ll even let you poke us…woah, we meant on Facebook! Ok, now on with the fantasy sports…

Hola gang.  Here are some quick target hits from week eleven. Eleventh Heaven Joe McKnight-McKnight earned himself a seat at the roundtable Thursday night with his 121 total yard performance (59 on ground, 62 through the air on six receptions).  His role certainly increased with Tomlinson sidelined but when he got his opportunity,McKnight ran with […]

(EDIT: Here are the most up to date rankings –>  Auction Values, Tiers and Cheat Sheet for PPR – http://su.pr/A17UuB NonPPR – http://su.pr/9DEgIM) Here are the PPR Rankings for Running Backs. For some reason the running backs who have more receptions are the ones that score more points here. Weird. Here are the rankings. Be […]

(Doc’s note: First off I’d like to thank everyone for sending in entries for the first round. I had an extremely difficult and rewarding time narrowing these down. As the chief honcho here at Razzball and a nerdy English professor, I found good stuff in every entry and feel like all of you have the […]

Here are this week’s rankings.  Both games have good defenses, are in cold weather and should be close games which makes ranking the individual players quite difficult.  I’ll break down the games tomorrow with a little water boarding and sleep deprivation. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers – GB at CHI Ben Roethlisberger – PIT vs NYJ Jay […]
