Remember the crappy bikes (you didn’t realize they were crappy at the time) you had when you were in elementary school? I’m talking about the type where you’d brake by moving the pedals backward.
Then, one day, it happened. You got a REAL bike; the kind that changed gears, had hand brakes and, wait for it….. Please, blog, may I have some more?
I’m subbing for Mark this week and bringing you my take on the passing matchups. Instead of going with just the passing yards against for the last 6 weeks, I’ve gone to my Statistical Strategery numbers for this week’s matchups. (Which I’ll be posting later today) And to the main event:
Thursday 8:20 PM
Indianapolis (24th) @ Jacksonville (23rd)
The word is good for this week regarding the imminent sittitude of the Colts studs. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Remember how last week we talked about the importance of using small sample sizes? At this point in the season, team defenses have so many games under their belt that even an extremely good or bad performance will only swing their season ranking by a 2 or 3 spots.

While I was writing this article, Doc and I started discussing the importance of looking at the most recent performances from a defense instead of relying on the full season’s worth of data. In fantasy baseball, the danger is in placing too much importance in small sample sizes, but in fantasy football, I’d argue that the opposite is true — there’s at least as much if not more danger in relying on large sample sizes.

So, apart from Belichick’s gamble creating the greatest debate since Wittgenstein vs. Popper, the big news from last week was the slew of running back injuries. “But Razzball,” you say, “this is a passing matchup article — why are you bringing up running backs?” Please, blog, may I have some more?

I’m fresh out of risk management parables and parlor game analogies this week, so I’m going to indulge myself by just skipping to the good stuff.
Let’s recap how the system works here: start with your basic ranking of players, and then consider -1 and +1 ratings to move the player to the bottom or top of their current tier. Please, blog, may I have some more?

As I flipped back and forth between MNF and the World Series (and thought over my fantasy baseball and fantasy football seasons), I couldn’t help but compile a mental fantasy baseball vs. fantasy football monologue in my head. Most of it probably only made sense to me in that moment, but through it I realized that the same reasons that people give for fantasy football being easier than fantasy baseball are also the same reasons it can be harder.

Ray Rice got 143 total yards and 1 touchdown on 21 touches to Willis McGahee’s 2 touches and 2 total yards. I’ve been shouting his praises from my porch for a while now and my neighbors have left all kinds of notes on my car about McGahee and how many touchdowns he has, and unveiled threats of dismemberment, but Rice is the main man now!

We have a new addition to “Game Day Companion” that should help your team out some weeks. I have been talking about Bye weeks a lot lately. There are times when you have multiple players out and you have to start players you normally would not consider. Please, blog, may I have some more?

It is week 4 in the NFL. Oh how the time flies. It seems just like yesterday that Anthony Gonzalez was my favorite receiver to draft and I would take him way too early. And remember that time when LT fell to me in the 2nd round and I thought, yeah, I have to take him; it’s a steal at half the price! Please, blog, may I have some more?
The men on the wire jump off tonight. Get out your big, soft, trampoliney things with the bright red bullseyes on them.
Glen Coffee: I know this is a no-brainer, but just in case you were on the fence or lost your brain in some kind of farming accident, pick him up if you still can. Please, blog, may I have some more?
