I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!
Week 6 kicks off with a NFC East matchup in prime time, which usually brings plenty of excitement. The battle will be between the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) vs. the struggling New York Giants (1-4). While this division has brought much excitement in the past, it is the worst division through five weeks of football. Not a single team in the NFC East holds a record above .500, and all four also are in the negative for point differential. Both the Eagles and Giants enter week 6 with a two-game losing streak, yet each locker room is responding…
This really has been a crazy/exciting NFL season. For the first time since 1990, every team has at least one win through week 5. Only 12 teams have a record over .500! It feels like anybody can lose to anybody, or tie for that matter, which has led to crazy upsets and exciting football, despite the quality of play being lower. It feels as though the crazy upsets are dialing down and teams are showing who they are. This helps us from a fantasy standpoint, since we can be pretty damn sure of a player’s role for their given offense.…
We have seen many of the top fantasy quarterback selections struggle in the early part of this season. Now, we add in bye weeks, and everything gets complicated to just stay afloat. This week, we have the Saints and Lions on bye, so obviously no Drew Brees or Matthew Stafford. My rankings will be out tomorrow for you to compare your starting quarterback to these options, but those with Brees or Stafford may be looking for a bye week fill-in off waivers, so it’s important to get these out early. Here are the best week 6 QB streamers. To be…
We have two fantasy-relevant teams on bye this week: the Lions and Saints. This means we will be missing two good quarterbacks, the top running back, and three top-20 wide receivers. Not to mention, Mark Ingram owners will now move him back to the bench. Surviving the bye weeks is what will put you in the best position to make your fantasy playoffs. To do this, you need to pick up some bye week fill-ins. To be included in this article, players must have an ownership of less than 60% to be considered an “add.” Here are my favorite Add/Drops…

FitzMagic REALLY turned into FitzTragic against the Bears last week. In one of the most depressing falls in modern history, Ryan Fitzpatrick is again mortal and will back-up the crab leg stealing, “W” eating, Uber driver-touching Jameis Winston. Week 4 also brought us a Thursday night shootout in the matchup against two of the toughest defenses in the league. We almost got a couple more ties, but coaching decisions and kickers got in the way of that. Oh, and the Bills are bad again. Who would’ve thunk it? Now a month into the season, if you are sitting at 0-4…
Streaming D/STs in fantasy football is a popular strategy year in and year out. Many believe in this strategy so deeply that they draft the team specifically for week 1, then they think about week 2 when it comes. Of course, many others are forced to stream a defense during the dreaded bye week. This week, we have the Bears and Buccaneers resting. While I highly doubt anyone has been rolling out Tampa, Chicago has been a popular play throughout the first month of the season. Picking up the right streamer can be a stressful task, so no worries, I…
FitzMagic officially went FitzTragic in week 4. Originally, Bucs coach Dirk Koetter wanted everyone who played fired, but he settled on benching Ryan Fitzpatrick for Jameis Winston going forward, a decision that I’m sure will work out. This week also gave us 1,000+ yards of offense in a Thursday Night Football matchup that featured two of the league’s top defenses. We also had head coaches making terrible decisions in overtime, since we don’t play the game to tie. Well, apparently you don’t play to win either. I, however, only play to win. You should know if your team is good…
