Right so apologies for the lack of content over the past few weeks after my fantasy reviews were done. I have had a bit of time off to rest my brain and now it is time to jump back in to things. Having played fantasy for several years but only writing about it seriously half... Continue Reading →
An informal look at the draft, maybe even potential bets!
As you will probably be aware if you've found this site, things happen slightly differently on the other side of the pond to over here. I think anyone who's made it this far probably has a pretty good knowledge of the game and doesn't need me dumbing it down for them. BUUUUUT just in case.... Continue Reading →
Suggested team records for next season, O/U (well, before Free agency anyway)
So as I mentioned in the previous post, Steve Fezzik - @FezzikSports (2 time winner of the Superbowl of sports betting) took the plunge and posted what he believed to be the wins/losses for all the teams for next season, let's take a look at them. (http://pregame.com/pregame-forums/f/9/t/1640859.aspx) - Also on the Ross Tucker even money... Continue Reading →
A very very early look towards next years Superbowl (yes really.)
So this is ridiculously early. But i wanted to get something down, as much for me to record what i was thinking at this time of the off seasons as anything else. Free agency is pretty much wrapped up. There's a few big name RBs still looking for teams. Jamaal Charles and AP are floating... Continue Reading →
Free Agency Roundup – @TouchdownTips
It's been 4 days since the NFL equivalent of the transfer window opened, and wow, what a hectic few days it has been! It all began at the start of last week when "legal tampering" a weird (oxymoron americanism) window opened, allowing teams to talk to players contracted to other teams and let them know...

Under the Hat – Fantasy 2016 Review. Wide Receivers @jayhatton49
So in the final part of this series of posts, the wide receiver. Much of this season was actually a disappointment for the position. Only 3 receivers scored 200 or more points which was the lowest since 2012 and only 4 players recorded 1000 yards and 10 TDs which was the lowest since 2011. The... Continue Reading →
Under the Hat – Fantasy 2016 Review. Kickers and Defense @jayhatton49
So thanks to the extra point being pushed back, the kicker has been pushed back into relevancy again. It is costing a few kickers jobs but man they are at least important again. So many games this year were lost because kickers miss an extra point, even the Patriots in the Superbowl had a usually... Continue Reading →
Under the Hat – Fantasy 2016 Review. Tight Ends @jayhatton49
The tight end position has gone through much change over the years. As the position title sort of suggests, he fits on the end of the offensive line and is both a blocker and able to release off the line of scrimmage and catch passes. They have to have strength and footwork of a 300lb... Continue Reading →
Under the Hat – Fantasy 2016 Review. Running Backs @jayhatton49
So Adam and I talked and thought it best to hold off the continuing review of the Fantasy Football season till after the Superbowl, and rightfully so because WOW. One of the best games I have ever seen and discussions about Brady as the best QB ever will continue forever. Personally I would always go... Continue Reading →
Wow… Just… Wow. Superbowl Review
Where do you start after a game like that?! What an amazing end to the season. The list of records broken in that one game covers a whole sheet of A4, https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C39rGd0VUAEKSOo.jpg - The biggest ones, I guess... Bellichek and Brady playing in their 7th, winning their 5th Superbowl ring. Brady breaking passing records all over... Continue Reading →
