Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the RB position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Seems just the other day he was going first or second overall in fantasy drafts, a lock for 100 yards and a touchdown per game, right? Well much has changed for LJ. His starting job isn't in jeopardy quite yet, but his games featuring 25 carries minimum behind what used to be an incredibly sound O-line are long gone. LJ is the prototypical grinder, his effect on opposing defenses felt most sharply in the latter stages of games. It isn't out of the question he could reach the century mark and maybe even rack up a few more touchdowns than people expect at this point in his career, but the problem is that LJ is sort of a square peg in a round hole. When you think of Todd Haley and Arizona's pass-happy tendencies, doesn't LJ seem perfectly suited for the pass blocking and route running asked of RBs in that offense? I didn't think so either.
Thursday came the news of Chad Ochocinco saying that he wanted to see Terrell Owens sign with the Bengals. During a party in Miami on Friday, which was attended by coach Marvin Lewis, Owens said that he would change his name to Ochouno if he came to ...
I can't believe nobody comes to the team talk and we are 7-2. We should be 10- 2 after Oakland, Cleveland, and Detroit. At least 9-3. I thought at the start of the year we might be a fringe playoff team at 9-7, I couldn't see better than 10-6. ...
How long you been a bengal fan, how long have you live in or around the Cincinnati area?
Personally, Im tired of the Cedric Benson bashing; B. Scott aint doing squat until Benson goes down. It amazes me from a couple years ago listening to the ...
1. Everyone knows I have a man crush on Bernard Scott... He will probably get a little at first and I think he may end up getting as much as 40 to 50% by seasons end. Possibly more if Benson can't cure his fumbling and pass blocking woes.
2. Our ...
T.J. Houshmandzadeh's apparent exit raises questions about the status of Chad Ocho Cinco, whose trade value has fallen significantly in the past year. By trading him, the Bengals could make a clean break from the diva-receiver years, if they are so ...

Draft Analysis
Round 1, Pick 5
Positives He is a dominate top 3 back. Negatives Hold out. Draft Strategy I had to take Larry at the fifth pick. He is a top 3 back and I couldn't pass him up, even with his hold out. (Contributed by: ThunderDan53)
Round 1, Pick 5
Positives One of the most explosive RB's in the game who could easily be the best at year end. Negatives The only negative is the uncertainty with his contract negotiations (or lack there of). No doubt with out this uncertainty he would have gone 2nd overall. Draft Strategy This is a classic example of a high risk, high reward pick. At this point in the draft his potential value is too high for me to ignore. (Contributed by: sport.nut)
Round 1, Pick 4
Positives Workhorse back with TD potential every time he touches the rock.
27 years old.
Negatives WORKhorse back with over 400 carries last season.
Holdout in camp. Will it last into the season?
Line is weaker than it's been for him in his career so far.
His QB... Draft Strategy When Hussy took Reggie Bush #3, I had to double check the facts on LJ's holdout situation. Might sit out most of training camp, but that might be a good thing after his workload last season. I went back and forth between LJ and S.Alexander. Both have their issues, but in the end thought I will either be getting a steal at #4 or a RB1 that I might have to sub for at the beginning of the year. We'll see!!
