Top Scoring Players on Fantasy Football (Week 12)
Week 12 was quite an appetizing week, especially for those of us in Fantasy Football who were making that playoff push. Week 12 is part of that final stretch in Fantasy Football, as the regular season in that field is down to the final two or three weeks in that field. It's usually by this point that the trade deadlines have passed, and teams have to pretty much hope that their rosters either continue to thrive, or come through and climb that ladder

Let's Get This Party Started! (Week 13)
Time sure flies faster than KaVontae Turpin did during that kickoff return. It seems like yesterday that I was drafting Fantasy Football teams and getting ready for the season. Now here it is, three months later, and we are down to the final six weeks of the season, the final one-third of the year that will determine who joins the playoff party, and who ends up with a good or decent draft pick.

The Wild, Wild NFC West
Once Week 12 is officially over, I'll start on the yearly tradition of composing week-by-week playoff scenarios and looks at the playoff picture up until the last week of the season. However, this is something that has to be talked about right now, and it's the NFC West this season. Holy Toledo! The NFC West is 2/3 through the season, and they're on an even keel. No byes remaining for any of the teams; they've all played 11 games in 12 weeks. As we football fans have seen, the NFC West has been quite cluttered this year, with both teams being up and down for most--if not all--of the season.

Top Scoring Players on Fantasy Football (Week 11)
Well, folkx, we are at that crucial period in the Fantasy Football season, and depending on the type of league you're in, you're down to either the final five weeks of the regular season, or the final four weeks. In a standard league, Week 11 begins the final five weeks of the regular season, though some leagues may only allow 14 regular season matchups and a three week playoffs that ends on Week 17. By this point, any and all trade deadlines have pretty much passed, so whatever team you have is yours in the long haul. If you have a pretty strong record by this point, the playoffs are in your future. If you're in the middle of the pack, hit the waiver wires. Anything worse, be prepared for that consolation tournament.
