Veteran WRs Are Back

The lack of performance from veteran WRs like Chad Ocho Cinco, Terrell Owens, Torry Holt, and even Donald Driver and Derrick Mason recently has had fantasy owners scratching their heads. Seasonal owners simply weren’t getting production, while dynasty and keeper owners were wondering if their stars value would continue to decrease. Read more

Holt, Chad & T.O. Are Reborn In Week 9…

Week 9 wasn’t unlike any other week this year, as unexpected things continued to happen. Just when it looked like a few veteran pass catchers were about to fall off the face of the earth, they were resurrected from the near dead. Several youngsters also continued to prove they could perform under tough conditions. Read more

We Were Right About, We Were Wrong About

Week 9 was a crazy one, as a few struggling superstars bounced back and had great games, while other guys who were on a roll, just couldn’t keep it up. Second year WRs like Detroit’s Calvin Johnson and Kansas City’s Dwayne Bowe continued to be consistent fantasy options, and look like the future studs of the position. Read more

Fantasy Owners Believe In Ocho

It’s no secret that public opinion of Bengals WR Chad Johnson has gone down over the past six to eight months, since he began complaining about his situation in Cincy, demanding to be traded, pushing public relations guys, changing his last name to “Ocho Cinco” and most recently hitting on a female reporter in the locker room. In spite of these factors, and the fact that he doesn’t have more than 57 yards in a game this season, fantasy owners are starting to have faith in him once again. Read more

Housh: “They Can’t Cover Us…”

Apparently, Bengals WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh told media prior to the Bengals loss against the Cowboys in Week 5 that - “they can’t cover us.”

Despite the loss, Housh was right, as he hauled in seven passes for 85 yards and two TDs. Teammate Antonio Chatman caught seven passes for 55 yards, but Chad Johnson continued to struggle, catching only three balls for 43 yards.

Underachieving Wide Receivers

Inevitably, many fantasy owners find themselves dumbfounded and perplexed by the poor play of several wide receivers that were considered top of the line pass catchers heading into the 2008 season. Granted, one of them has only played two games, and another lost his starting QB in Week 1, but for the others, there seems to be no legitimate reason why they shouldn’t be playing well right now.

Should You Buy Low On Braylon & Others?

It’s no secret that the Cleveland Browns offense is off to a pitiful start in their first two games of the 2008 NFL season. Wide receiver Braylon Edwards, who was second in the NFL with 16 TD catches last season, only has five catches for 46 yards this season, and has had a case of the dropsies, but should fantasy owners look to trade for him now, while his value is low?

Ocho Cinco Uses “He-Man”

He-Man to No-Offseason.com for spreading the use of the phrase “He-Man” so far that now NFL players are starting to use it to describe one another.

Check out what Chad Ocho Cinco recently said about Washington Redskins free safety Laron Landry.

“The last time we played, he [Scott] cussed me out and told me to stay out of his huddle, and I took offense to that, so this Sunday I am going to hit him in the mouth,” Johnson said. “He’s really rude.” As for Landry, Johnson said, “He’s always trying to be a he-man when there’s a running play.”

Fantasy Football Week 1 - WR Questions

As fantasy owners get ready for Week 1, there are several question marks surrounding the wide receiver position. Guys like Plaxico Burress, Braylon Edwards and Chad Johnson all have injury concerns this week. Who should owners target in non-PPR leagues, and, who will boom and bust? Read more

Fantasy Impact: Chris Henry Returns

During his first two seasons in the NFL, a young, 6’4”, 200 lb. physically gifted WR out of West Virginia named Chris Henry looked like an up and coming player with superstar fantasy potential. Not only was he big and talented, but he played on a team – the Cincinnati Bengals – that had one of the most explosive passing offenses in the league. Fantasy owners saw his potential in 2006 as he caught 36 balls for 605 yards and nine TDs as Cincy’s third WR. He looked like a player who would play a key role for years to come.. Read more

Chad Says He Can Out-Swim Michael Phelps…

By now you may have already heard the most recent ridiculous comment out of the mouth of Bengals WR Chad Johnson. During an interview on ESPN’s Pardon The Interruption with Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon, Johnson - who recently stated he wants to legally change his last name to Ocho Cinco - said he could beat Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Phelps in a swimming race.

Wow, Chad. This is taking things to a whole new level. How about you focus on regaining on the strength in your surgically repaired ankle, and actually perfect your craft, before you start worrying about taking on the best swimmer ever to walk the face of the earth in his own craft.

Chad’s New Last Name - Ocho Cinco

When ESPN’s Suzy Kolber asked Cincy’s Chad Johnson how his surgically repaired ankle felt during Monday Night’s match-up with Green Bay - he said he was “85 percent.”

Chad has always had a crazy infatuation with his jersey number, because he has a crazy infatuation with himself.

Chad, who nicknamed himself “Ocho Cinco” last year - which means “8″ and “5″ in Spanish (it doesn’t even mean “85″), has now officially lost his mind.

He has announced that he will legally change his last name to “Ocho Cinco.”

If this comes to fruition, it will be the most ridiculous thing we’ve seen happen this year. But the mere mention of the possibility on his part, deserves a solid “He-Man” from us.
