Listen to internet radio with The Swollen Dome on Blog Talk Radio
Jay Cutler on The Score in Chicago
“Defensively, we carried all year, and looking back at the film offensively, those first four or five games , it’s hard to watch at this point.” That statement says it all. Cutler doesn’t do many interviews, which made Thursday morning’s appearance on the Mully & Hanley Show mighty intriguing. Listen to his voice inflection when […]
Sanchez, Fitzpatrick Among Many Sitting: Know Your Backups
The talk in the Twitter-verse and talk radio this morning is about the “enhanced NFL schedule” and the new CBA. What will the new 18-game mean to the NFL universe and to fantasy footballers. Did you look for a Mark Brunell and Brian Brohm finale? Did you have time to pick up Joe McKnight and […]

Week 1 Receiver Looks Through Sunday
Over the course of the season, we’ll be tracking the Looks and Touch leaders in the NFL. Obviously, you’ll have those mutant stats that leap off of the board, such as Roddy White’s 23 targets against the Steelers. Or, the fact that the Colts and Bengals were absolutely dreadful early, thereby forcing Peyton Manning and […]
FOXSports.com Hit: Sneaking Around the Waiver Wire
I spent my Sunday night poring through box scores, play-by-plays and film to load up the quick-hit solutions on the waiver wire. Look, we don’t normally push you to the wire so soon, but there were injuries of significance … and we know you love to try and punch that lottery ticket. Lock and load […]
NFL Back: New Heroes Rise
Welcome back, old friend. Amid a rush of information and activity as the countdown clock ran to zero, fantasy owners texted, Tweeted, emailed and fired off derisive comments to their fellow league members. Team “xxx” is going to run all over you. More than a few of us in this fantasy realm banged the drum […]

We recently held a draft for our fantasy community in conjunction with our FOX Fantasy Football. I sent out a quick hit to the fellas for a reaction to their drafts. Here are two of the early replies. Bryan Bishop The lesson I learned: Don’t draft your fantasy team and podcast at the same time. […]
Heading into the Opener
Who’s ready for some REAL football? No, I’m not bemoaning last week’s fantastic run of college games. Believe me, I’ve spent a ton of time watching tape, scouring rosters and getting ready for what promises to be an even bigger Week 2. Rather, I’m looking forward to the grandiose celebration set to take place down […]
Fantasy Football Glossary
Fantasy Football Glossary ACL: This is perhaps worst acronym that you can have associated with your running back, wide receiver or QB when reviewing the weekly injury report. The word “torn” in front of this acronym effectively ends the player’s season and sends you scurrying for a replacement. Auction Draft: A draft style in which […]
Harmon Updated Defense Rankings
The final rounds of the draft are reserved to fill two roster slots. After loading up on running back depth and building a deep receiving corps, fantasy owners roll toward defenses and kickers. Occasionally, some intrepid soul will leap from the fray to fill this roster slot early, but owners have been burned by this […]
Harmon Updated K Rankings
Kickers are people, too! Seriously, it’s rare that a fantasy owner reaches to snag a kicker before the final rounds anymore, but it does happen on occasion. Still, kickers do play an important role in deciding fantasy matchups where, just like on the real playing field, games can be decided by narrow margins. They’re selected […]
Harmon Updated WR Rankings
Fantasy owners will have to work deeper at wide receiver than any other position. Sure, everyone needs to react to injuries and workload splits (thank you, Mike Shanahan) at tailback while working the waiver wire feverishly in-season. The fact that most leagues still require three starting wide receivers forces owners to tap into those third […]
CJ Spiller: How High Does He Climb?
You can’t stop CJ Spiller. You can only hope to contain him. Spiller helped lead the Bills to an exhibition win over the Bengals, scoring twice in the 35-20 win on Saturday night. He carried the ball 12 times for 52 yards, including a 20-yard sprint. Spiller added two catches for 33 yards. The workload […]

Vernon Davis of the 49ers Gives His Thoughts on Fantasy Dominance
It’s not a lengthy conversation, but Vernon Davis gave his thoughts on the 49ers’ growth under Mike Singletary in 2009 and hypes his fantasy value for 2010 (he’s a free agent to be in a much-improved offensive set).

FanEX Analysis Draft Complete: Review It
Recently, I worked my way through a long, arduous journey. I completed a slow fantasy football draft. That is, instead of the normal fast-paced draft with 60 to 90 seconds between picks, this draft worked off of a 12-hour clock. As such, it took weeks to wind to completion, and more than a few twists […]
