We're in the final steps of our long and winding road through the 2011 fantasy season. Are you going to tiptoe to the finish line or will you demonstrate your flair for the dramatic?

Time For Giants to Exploit Mismatches
Just a few years ago, the Giants had several players that created mismatches that kept opposing coaches and players up nights.
TE Jeremy Shockey, in his early years, was a two man job for defenses. DE Michael Strahan had to be doubled, too. RB Tiki Barber was spied by the league’s best defenders, much of the time to no avail. RB Brandon Jacobs just plain scared people.
