If we learned one thing about the NFL in week one: the lockout certainly did not slow down the offensive numbers. A ridiculous 14 quarterbacks had more than 300 yards, four of which went over 400. 13 receivers topped 100 yards, including seven double-digit touchdown performances. Needless to say, fantasy teams weren’t suffering. Now it’s time to build on that success and … [Read more...] about Week 2 Fantasy Football Rankings: Building on a strong week

Woodhead & Law Firm Show Patriots have Ground Game too
