Culpepper vs. McCown... where's JaMarcus?

Well it looks like the quarterback competition in Oakland is finally winding down. Although at this point this battle should have very little fantasy implications, the winner might be a name to consider during the year when you run into injury problems or the bye week blues. McCown has proven himself to be a completely mediocre quarterback, averaging only 155 yards a game and throwing only 25 touchdowns in 35 games, while also throwing 29 interceptions. I wouldn't expect much different from him if he takes over as quarterback for the Raiders this season. However, Daunte Culpepper brings a lot more intrigue to the conversation.

Could Edgerrin James relocate his Edge in 2007?

Michael Silver thinks so. His editorial comes off mostly as a fluff piece, and it's important not to get too excited about a player over one of those, but there's one thing to consider: Maybe Denny Green was just a terrible coach. This passage in particular makes it seem as if there's some hope for a resurgence of sorts now that Green's gone:

Joey Harrington: Not too shabby, actually

Harrington must feel like he's on top of the world right now. His evil plot to frame Michael Vick for dogfighting actually worked (wait, what?), he's got the starting job locked down in Atlanta, and he just finished a preseason game with a 118.0 passer rating.

  • Playoff leagues: Keeping the fantasy football season alive to the bitter end:
    • frank m: I'm playing at ESPN. I'm also doing weekly tournaments at www.papersports.com.
    • ffexchange: I've done my own for a while where we set a lineup each week and you can play anyone, but can only play them once. One third fantasy, one third survivor style pool, and one third guessing the games. Its not the same as the real thing, but going cold turkey isn't easy.
  • 2008 Fantasy Football Playoffs MVPs:
    • Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Just to update the situation, it looks like the PT Cruiser may have a flat tire (i.e. he's questionable with various injuries) and does not seem to be a good play this weekend. Go with Steve Slaton and hope he can find the endzone.
    • Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Sorry for the delay, but was busy with Christmas. Hope yours is going well too. Anyways, in terms of your questions there...I'd go with Thigpen and Pierre Thomas. It looks like Boldin will be questionable for this weekend, so I'd keep him out of your lineup just in case. If Hixon and Ginn are...
    • e-roc: @Brandon - Go figure I'm in the office and reading blogs... Anyway, I have both Manning & Wayne so my conundrum is this: QB - Thigpen @ Cin or Garcia v. Oak? RB - PT Cruiser v. CAR , Slaton v. CHI or McClain v. Jax? WR - Do you know if Boldin...
    • Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: I'm not generally in favor of starting players on teams that are playing for nothing and it seems that Indy is one of the worst culprits of this (maybe because they are always in the playoffs?) If you have someone like Peyton Manning, you may try to find a suitable replacement, as he'll probably...
    • e-roc: @Brandon - somehow I managed to own just two of the names above and still came away with the wins down the stretch. Any thoughts/recommendations on teams like Indy who will probably be sitting starters in Week 17?
  • Quick Hits (and Misses): Colts @ Jaguars:
    • Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @JT: Yeah DeAngelo Williams went off huh?! I'm not sure what either the Texans or Jets were trying to do on Sunday, but it just wasn't working for them. The Patriots almost pitched the shutout, but that garbage time touchdown probably took a few points from you. See you next season!
