Peon's Place

While there was only one mystery to be had on playoff positioning (New York Giants making it, the Dallas Cowboys going home) there were plenty of surprises with the performances of each top player this week. I was able to win my second money league’s super bowl, thanks to my opponent’s Aaron Rodgers resting up for next weekend.

Now that we’re done with the regular season of 2011, enjoy the playoffs, as all 3 of my favorite teams are in it this year.  Read the rest of this entry » Top NFL Players week 17

All year long football fans have witnessed his explosiveness. He won the Super Bowl last season, and sent a message to the other 31 teams in the NFL, “Just you try to stop me”. I wonder how Brett Favre is feeling right now?

I won the Fantasy Football Super Bowl in my $50 entry league (winning $200), and am 15 points up coming into the final game of my $20 entry league’s Super Bowl, with an ESPN projection that may plant me another 30 points over my opponent. Two championship wins out of two leagues, there we go! How have your teams fared?

With one week left to go…  Read the rest of this entry » Top NFL Players week 16

So I’ve made it into the fantasy Football Super Bowl in both of my money leagues, hooray for guaranteed cash! Do you have a little bit more trust in my weekly football blogs now?

Drew Brees, with 2 games left to play, is a meager 300 yards from breaking Dan Marino’s record. The good news is, he’s averaging 340 yards per game. The bad news is, Brees owners need to find a backup, as the Saints not only have a playoff spot locked up, but still have a chance at taking a first-round bye as well. Any game they have a blowout locked victory, you can expect Drew to be eating hotdogs on the sidelines.

Weeks 16 and 17 will be practically here and gone before you can say “Merry Christmas”, so let’s get excited about our upcoming conclusion!  Read the rest of this entry » Top NFL players week 15

I’ve been dominant in my first week of my 2 money fantasy football leagues. It’s all about paying attention to your players and their matchups.

Do you take that average quarterback going up against the Minnesota Vikings or the New York Giants, who have the worst 2 pass defenses in the league? Of course you do!

Should I pick up a Toby Gerhart who has barely touched the ball all season, just because Adrian Peterson is injured? Heck yeah!

If you stay active in your leagues, you win games. If your team consists of players who are outside of the top 20, you can still achieve success. Watch the waiver wire, stay in-tune to player news and injuries, and grab those backups!

Three weeks of regular season football remain, good luck out there.  Read the rest of this entry » Top NFL players week 14

Most fantasy football leagues are down to the last week, and your favorite NFL team has  just 4 more games to play this season.

Will the Saints QB break Dan Marino’s record?

Will the Packers go undefeated?

Will the 49ers not blow it at the end?

Will the Colts win the Suck for Andrew Luck contest?

You’re less than a month away from all the answers, my friends.  Read the rest of this entry » Top NFL players week 12
