We are at the penultimate week of the 100th season of the NFL and the only thing we know is that there will be two new participants in the Super Bowl this year.

Next up are the Tennessee Titans and Derrick Henry traveling to Baltimore Ravens and to deal with their talented QB Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson has to prove he can win in the playoffs and I say he struggles. Upset alert as the Titans run all over Baltimore.

Six teams return to the playoffs this year. That is one less team than 2018. With a turnover of six new teams, parity is at 50% and that keeps the NFL spicy. There is only one team coming back from Super Bowl LIII and that is The New England Patriots.

The season passes and you find yourself wondering where did the time go? My article dropped around Sept. 4 this year and it asked some questions about the then-upcoming NFL season. With the season over let us try to answer them now shall we?

Merry Christmas everyone! This article will drop on Dec. 24 and in homage to Clement C. Moore … it ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas when you could read this tome and all through the house … well you know the ...

The narrative for this week is that the following will occur: QB Drew Brees will pass for more than three touchdowns because that is what he needs for the overall record over former QB Peyton Manning. He passed for exactly four touchdowns and delivered the win.

I was leading by eight points as late as 11:15 p.m. on Monday Night and tight end Zach Ertz caught a touchdown to send the game into overtimes. Then I was up by those same two points until tight end Zach Ertz caught the game-winning touchdown and went for 30 points on me. I lose on the last play of the game.

Hello and greetings. For everyone in the normal world, I have news. It is snowing in New England with an unusual flurry. However, we are better in New England at handling the elements than most. So it is without further ...

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone I know and don’t know. I will be giving thanks this year for what my family possesses. I wish your time with your family brings about a more Norman Rockwell moment with that turkey than a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation sequence of events with the same type of bird.

Well, I talk about my week and whether Mexico is naughty or Mexico is nice (#EarlyChristmasReference). I also get my Li’L Yoda on … spoiler alert the Mandalorian is freaking Lannik awesome! So let’s get to it, shall we?

What I noticed about football is that if a team is doing well or if a team is doing poorly they seem to mention the same list of issues. The only difference is the record of the team. I guess that means during football season there is always something to talk about.

Cerberus is a three-headed dog in Greek mythology who guards the gates of the underworld to prevent the dead from leaving. It is an intimidating and scary image.

Halloween is here and that means it is time for ghouls and ghosts and other costumes to take to the streets and haunt the early evening on Oct. 31. It is a trick and treat kind of week so I am going to mention all items coming into Week 9 that are treats. In this era of all things offense, there are plenty of treats to hand out.

So get out and enjoy. The winter always feels longer in the Northeast. Our summer may have been a precursor to the real bitter cold winds yet to arrive. This in-between time keeps pulling at you until the first frost on that pumpkin on my doorstep.

When my wife asks me who Baker Mayfield is, it means the information she is seeing outside of the game is not properly aligned with the performance on the field. I hope Mayfield pulls it together but the message is just not completely all there. Just like my team this week.

The NFL comes into Week 6 with all of these strange issues. Teams that should win do not. See the Kansas City Chiefs at home. See the Dallas Cowboys at home. Players that were number one in receiving yards are held back. See Keenan Allen.

Week 5 is a stepping off point for your fantasy football team. No matter what your record, realize that you must always go over and over the waiver wire. There will be a player acquired in the month of October who will propel your team forward; whether it is from an injury or just performance, be on the lookout.

It is the time of year people predict the foliage. It goes something like ...“Farmer’s Almanac says the rain over the Summer means beautiful colors”. Then you have those all convinced that wooly bears can predict our winter.

The 2019 Red Sox have essentially the same players with the exception of 135 innings of relief pitching from closer Craig Kimbrel and bullpen guy Joe Kelly. How did that work out? Well, not so good.

All I needed was an en temps performance from Tyreek Hill and Mike Evans but they went all bunsly on me. If Deshaun Watson goes for a 44 burger I will win. Hooray! But he only went for a 39 burger and I am 0-1.

Like an old friend coming back for a 20 week or so visit, the NFL is about to knock on the doors of our homes again. So welcome to the 2019 NFL season. There are lots of ups and lots of not-so-ups throughout an NFL year. When confronted with the complexity of it all you could get a brain cramp.

The NFL is a wildly successful business. It consists of 32 teams that all have positive revenue and operating income in the millions. How many businesses can say that? Everyone is a winner in this business model.

It is official. Stop the presses. It is the return of the virgin articles to the pages of the www.fantasysharks.com website. As you are well aware, it is the greatest fantasy football website in the business. It happens to be ...

Super Bowl LIII has arrived. Other than Christmas, what kind of hype in America is so worthy? I would say none. Over 100 million Americans will sit down with their wings and their chips and their dip and their favorite ...

It is Championship Weekend and I went 2-2 over last weekend. All four home teams won. How boring is that? The end of the NFL season is nigh. Generally speaking it is a force that is both fantastic and very ...

First up are the surging Indianapolis Colts at the Kansas City Chiefs. I sense either brilliance from Patrick Mahomes or another scheme by the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts run-run-run and throw-throw-throw so I see the latter and another road victory this playoff season for the Colts.

The Ravens play this crazy old offense that was outlawed sometime in the late 60s. Since defenses don’t understand it, they wonder where the time went and they lose. Twelve minute possessions will do that to you in the NFL.

In 2018 the NFL was watched more than 2017. But more importantly, an NFL game occupied 40 of the Top 50 slots in the television ratings for 2018. An 80 percent mind-share is outrageous.

My team is not my team. Geez Louise I love DeShaun Watson. He went for 44 points this week! Come on! The problem is the rest of my team has not shown up for the last five weeks.

I bet big on the fact that wide receiver Amari Cooper would go for (at least) a respectable 30 points after getting 49 with Dallas last week. Especially against Indianapolis, right? …double uh-oh.

Well hello there.  I am on a bye week and I am fretful.  I take the bye week very seriously and I try to put my best team forward just to see if I can pick a team that can ...

On the last week of our fantasy football season, RB Phillip Lindsay, RB James Conner, and QB Deshaun Watson went for a combined 70 points. Only Phillip Lindsay went for a 28 burger but that was enough. I have been winning by getting 90 points from my Top 3 players and coasting in.

I have a decent lineup and I have a fantastic bench. And on that bench is WR Amari Cooper because he has been struggling to score. Amari Cooper goes for a 38 burger and I lose the week.

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.  I consider it one of the greatest holidays because most people get Thursday and Friday off.  How cool is that? So enjoy your Turkey.  Enjoy your stuffing.  Devour that pumpkin pie.  Thanksgiving is a ...

Week 11 has arrived.  We are nearing the home stretch and the Bye weeks are getting down to the final count.  Every week is important and sometimes your team cannot find the end zone.  Somehow it becomes critical to try ...

The combination of Belichick and Tom Brady have cast a penumbra over the NFL. I am going to explain it through a list of bulleted sentences. Check this out …

Happy Halloween! There is a lot going on my friends. Personally and impersonally we have learned nothing. However, we are closing in on a solution. The NFL season is winding up and it is on full tilt. Generally speaking, there ...

Hello. It is Week 8 and the Fantasy Virgin is about to lose the first game of the year. What the what? Can this be? In fantasy football there are winning times and there are losing times. I actually had ...

This part of the year focuses on the harvest. The pumpkin patch. The end of apple picking season. The preparation for Halloween festivities. The danger of wishing back that hot summer when there is a hint of snow in the air. I want to let Don Henley know that for adults this is the time we should lament the end of Summer.

Where is the season going? It is on fast forward and I lost running back Jay Ajayi. Just when you thought the reigning Super Bowl Champions would be forced to run the football they find themselves without a running back and one game under .500.
