This may be one of the worst fantasy football seasons in recent memory when it comes to the waiver wire. I can’t think of another season in recent years with as little to choose from on the wire.

En Fuego: Brian Hartline
Peterson is no Revis Juan…
OK, so this was an easy one. Hartline went nuts today and that might be an understatement. With 12/253/1, Hartline is Captain Obviously the #1 target for Tannehill and has been all season. The Dolphins staff compared him to Jordy Nelson this Summer and that is looking like a pretty good comparison.
Before today’s monster game Hartline had 13/202/0,...
Jackie Battle listed as the Chargers’ starting running back
With San Diego Chargers running back Ryan Mathews struggling to hold onto the football, Jackie Battle is now listed as the starting running back down in Southern California.
I’m sure the Chargers will give Mathews a chance to earn his starting spot back, but right now Battle is getting the job done.
Search for answers starts with turnover battle
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Marty Schottenheimer was in town for the Chiefs' alumni weekend before heading back to his home in Charlotte, N.C., and back into retirement.
Perhaps some Chiefs fans should have tackled him before he got to the Kansas City airport.
Yes, it's getting that desperate in these parts.
The Chiefs not only fell to 1-3 on Sunday with yet another head-scratching...
Cards Visit Rams for NFC West Bout
Cards Visit Rams for NFC West Bout
By SBRForum.com
When the NFL schedule came out over the summer Thursday night's scheduled bout between the Arizona Cardinals and St. Louis Rams at the Jones Dome (8:20 pm ET, NFL Network) didn't garner much attention. But suddenly this is a rather attractive matchup, pitting one of the last undefeated teams in the league against another...
The bye weeks begin: finding a week 5 fill in QB.
I’m responding to an email inquiry, in advance of the Thursday game again this week. With bye weeks starting this week (yes, we had a ‘mini bye’ last week) owners are faced with some difficult add/drop decisions for the first time this season. In an attempt to solve some of the problems, we’ll take a [...]
Chargers Bounce Back, Rout Chargers 37-20
Jackie Battle had one receiving touchdown and ran for a score as the San Diego Chargers pounded the Kansas City Chiefs, 37-20, at Arrowhead Stadium.
Philip Rivers was 18-of-23 passing for 209 yards with two touchdowns and Antonio Gates had three catches for 59 yards for the Chargers (3-1), who bounced back from last week's 27-3 setback to Atlanta with 17 first-quarter points...
Quarter Mark – 5 Things about Fantasy Football in Week 4
Hart Breaking
One question. Did you start Brian Hartline against the Cards? Chances are you didn’t. Well, the bad news I don’t Hartline won’t be putting up 245 yds receiving again, but the good news is he may have merged as a viable fantasy threat. Hartline is certainly not a WR1 option, but he could be a solid Flex play going forward. Just don’t expect 200 yards a game...
San Diego Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs: Hero and Zero of the Game
The Chiefs were riding high after a solid victory last week against the Saints, but their parade was promptly and torrentially rained upon by Phillip Rivers and the Chargers. This game was not so much about the Chargers being vastly superior, as it was about how truly terrible the Chiefs are.Heroes: Phillip Rivers, Jackie BattleFor years, Phillip Rivers has led this Chargers team...
Fantasy Football: Chris Johnson Among Biggest Surprises Of Week 4
I am highlighting the top 3 guys who I feel had a “freak show” performance this week. In other words, these are the guys who exceed any and all projections that were made for them going into Week 4. Most people consider these performances a “fluke”.Brian Hartline, WR – Miami DolphinsThis guy is going to be hit or miss every single week and will never do the same thing...
It's no fluke: Vikings lead NFC North
Leslie Frazier had a wide smile as he hugged receiver Jerome Simpson on the field after the Minnesota Vikings' 20-13 win at Detroit on Sunday.
Frazier had good reason to be happy. He took over as Minnesota's coach 11 games into the 2010 season, replacing the fired Brad Childress on an interim basis and then earning the permanent job with three late-season wins. One thing...

Coming into the season with major question marks at the quarterback position, Kevin Kolb has led the Arizona Cardinals to their first 4-0 start in 38 years.
Kolb threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-tying 15- yard score to Andre Roberts with 22 seconds left in the fourth quarter, and Jay Feely nailed a game-winning 46-yard field goal in overtime as the Cardinals...

We wrap up the fourth Sunday of the NFL season by looking at a handful of players who exceeded expectations and a handful who failed to deliver.

Know your enemy: Rams-Cardinals Pregame Q&A with Seth Cox of The Sports Headquarters
The Arizona Cardinals - check that, THE FOUR-AND-OH ARIZONA CARDINALS - have been the biggest surprise in the NFL season so far, and a major factor that sees the NFC West leading the league in wins at the quarter pole. But now they prepare to take on an improved Rams team that is undefeated in their home stadium so far.
If respectability starts at home - and the four...
