Each week we analyze the match ups and provide our take on which Quarterbacks you should start and which should be sitting on your fantasy pine. We take several variables into account including matchups, injuries, potential weather problems, arrests, baby mama trouble, etc. Eli Manning is the only fantasy relevant QB with a week 11 bye as Jake Locker, Christian Ponder and Russ Wilson are not sniffing QB1 status anytime soon. On the injury front, Big Ben (shoulder) , Mike Vick (concussion) and Jay Cutler (concussion) are likely to be in street clothes.

Phil Simms Says Giants QB Eli Manning Is A Champion, But He's Not Elite

Via GridironFans.com  |  November 13, 2012
Phil Simms needs to make up his mind about Eli Manning. Last summer, with Manning's second Super Bowl MVP trophy still fresh on the brain, the former Giants great said Manning and New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin were destined for the Hall of Fame.

Phil Simms Says Eli Manning, Dan Marino, Warren Moon, Dan Fouts Are Not Elite Quarterbacks

Via NESN.com  |  November 14, 2012
The word “elite” get thrown around in football a lot, but no one really knows what it refers to. Does it mean that player is currently Top 5 among their position? Does it mean they’re Top 10 at their position all time? Or does it mean that they’re a future hall of famer? To Phil Simms, it may be an even higher honor. Simms created some controversy on Monday when he said that...

How the New York Giants Are in the Perfect Situation…Sort of

Via New York Sports-Kings  |  November 13, 2012
To say that the New York Giants played a bad game on Sunday would be an understatement.  Watching that game, many would think that this was the worst game the Giants have played in recent years. After watching that game, it was hard to tell if the team that was just on the TV was the Giants or if it was a misprint and everyone just watched the Jets. Despite the horrendous game and...

Buy Low: MJD

Via Juan Elway  |  November 14, 2012
They thought Jennings was the answer Juan… There are very few guys that you can stick on your bench and possibly win you a championship.  MJD is one of those guys.  Rashad Jennings stinks.  OK, he pretty much sucks…at least in comparison to MJD.  This is blatantly obvious when you watch this team play. Look, MJD can be probably be acquired for next to nothing (maybe) and...
