Pat Angerer vs Chiefs - You've got to love the Tampa-2 defensive scheme as the middle linebacker drops way back in coverage to play the pass, and at no time was that clearer than when watching Pat Angerer play against the Buccaneers. With Gary Brackett lost for the season, Angerer is primed for a huge year as the Colts defense relies on him to make plays. Thus far, Angerer has 50 tackles through four games ...

Finnegan, McCourty, Babineaux @ Steelers - The Steelers are quickly becoming a team IDP fantasy owners need to focus on for production opportunities. With a suspect offensive line and stars like Ben Roethlisberger and Rashard Mendenhall hurting, the Titans appear to be facing this squad at the right time, and consistent pressure from the linemen like Dave Ball, Derrick Morgan and even defensive tackle Jerre ...

Osi Umenyiora vs Seahawks - So much for coming back slow as Osi Umenyiora posted two sacks and a forced fumble in limited snaps. Justin Tuck remains a question mark, but even if he plays, look to Umenyiora as at least a DL-2 play this week against the Seahawks. Last week Seattle failed to give up a sack to the Falcons but remember that Atlanta has failed to post a sack since their five against Jay Cutler, w ...

Start'em Matt Ryan vs. Packers - Another week, and Matt Ryan lands on our start-worthy options once again, as the Falcons take on the Packers at home. While Green Bay should win this game, expect Ryan to throw the football over 50 times, and that means good things for his fantasy owners. Audio: Julio Jones A Solid No.2 Receiver For Ryan Julio Jones is turning out to be a quality No.2 option playing opposite ...

Another week is coming to a close, and it's time to take a look at some key players of interest as we take perspective of the games that were. While Aaron Rodgers had a career day, it's a par of big name running backs that finally broke the hundred-yard mark that highlight our week four podcast in Chris Johnson and Arian Foster. Audio: Week 4 Fantasy React Some of your that have listened to our weekly podca ...

Heading into the first bye weeks of the season, it's time for fantasy owners to focus on the depth of their squads, to add useful options, while regular starters are out. Week five we have the Cowboys, Browns, Rams, Dolphins and Ravens all out, which means many of you are likely looking for a running back to help out.

Frank Gore vs Buccaneers - Due to an ankle injury, the 49ers actually started rookie Kendall Hunter against the Eagles, but Frank Gore responded with 15 carries for 127 yards and a game-winning touchdown in the fourth quarter. Gore will likely be on a pitch count again vs the Buccaneers, but he clearly showed big-play ability in Philadelphia and will face another beatable run defense at home. Hunter will ge ...

Matt Ryan vs Packers - The Falcons haven't looked like a playoff team this year, as their secondary couldn't even hold Tarvaris Jackson under 300 yards passing last week, as the Seahawks almost came from way behind to win. While Ryan will get knocked around this year, he's likely to throw for over 4,000 yards and throw close to 30 touchdowns. Rookie Julio Jones has picked it up in recent weeks, and his 11 r ...

Jimmy Graham @ Panthers - We all know by now that Jimmy Graham is an elite fantasy tight end, but it's time to wonder if Graham is the true No.1 receiver in New Orleans. Graham has at least four receptions in all four games this year and over 100 yards in each of the past two games. With Colston easing his way back into the lineup, Graham should continue to be the main option in the passing game and his fou ...

This is a tough week for team defenses as many of the top groups face high-scoring offenses, so look to the Giants as a nice option to start as they return home to play the Seahawks. Tarvaris Jackson has a decent game against the Falcons last week, but Seattle are one of the worst road teams in the NFL, and that trend should continue in New York's hostile environment.
