NFL is back baby! Nick and JB preview week 1′s match-ups, including tonight’s NFC East throwdown pitting the Cowboys versus the Giants.
Listen for sleeper picks, game-breakdowns, and general team analysis as we head into the season. Nick even makes a bold prediction about Percy Harvin that gives JB a migraine.
Weekly analysis recapping week 1 and previewing week 2 will be up at the same time next week and every week through the 2012 season!
Don’t forget you can tweet us questions, comments, or general insults @jbgilpin (me) or @nickcapozzi (not me) and we’ll get to your thoughts on the ‘cast.

I have 3 RBs (FJax, Sproles, Greene) and 7 WRs (J.Jones, Colston, V.Jackson, S.Johnson, D.Moore, Crabtree, S.Rice) in a 10 team PPR league with 2RB/2WR/Flex. Most of the value in the auction was WR for the flex spot.
Should I drop S.Rice or D.Moore for any of the following RBs or hold:
Jizz
R.Jennings
K.Hunter
P.Thomas
Bess (another WR but may be good in ppr)
@smegma, Wow, I’m surprised Jennings wasn’t drafted… That said, I think you stand pat for week 1. Jennings is going to have his biggest workload of the year in week 1 if MJD stays healthy. So his value is mostly tied to this opening week. I would stay with your squad and readdress after the first week of games.
.5 ppr league, who would you start in a flex, ced benson or p garcon, all other points are equal rc/yds=rush/yds points wise
@mcbluntsky, I’d go with Garcon, even though I’m not too high on him. I want to see what Benson does and it’s a tough matchup for the Packers run game vs. 49ers.
I have a ranking question for the whole season…
where do you see brandon marshall and julio jones?
also matt forte and steven jackson?
@Yumi, Marshall, but it’s very close. Forte, and it’s not close.
@Jonathan Gilpin,
thanks!
Is Greg Olsen as douchey in person as his mugshot looks? Guy looks like Stifler from the “American Pie” movies..
@Ronkonkoma, I would imagine a lot of NFL players have moments of douchey-ness, but I have no idea! If you think he looks like Stifler in his profile picture, look at Brandon Morrow on the Jays. Uncanny resemblance.
Cowboy’s will take the Giants…
@Kevin W, You were right! Glad my Austin over Bryant was a good call, but I didn’t call Ogletree over both. Where was my head!
Drop Lafeil for Ogletree?
Another Laurent Robinson??
@Mike, Probably too late for ya as the wire is now barren of Ogletree stocks, but I definitely would. As a Panthers fan, not a big LaFell believer.
Great game for sure. The Boys had a ton of penalties, this time they were bale to overcome them. They really played a strong game hope they can continue this progress the entire season.
