COLTS vs TITANS Saints, Sinners, Wire Hire

noreply@blogger.com (JD Godchaux and Childs Dunbar) — Thu, 9 Dec 2010 17:57:00 -0700

Colts vs Titans

I'm am going to nickname this game the Outback Comeback Bowl. I see Peyton Manning and Chris Johnson both bouncing back from awful back to back performances.

Saint: Manning and C. Johnson

I am still leaving the Colts run game as my sinner. I see Kerry Collins having a rusty night also. unless you are in a 2 QB league Collins should be on the bench.

Sinner Indy RB and Kerry Collins

As far as wire hires.
there is no one standing out that should be noted for this game. I say the colts finally put it together against the titans and win a key divisional game.

Houston Texans vs Philadelphia Eagles Saints, Sinners and Wire hires

noreply@blogger.com (JD Godchaux and Childs Dunbar) — Thu, 2 Dec 2010 14:17:00 -0700

With the Thursday night game coming up tonight. JD and Childs put out their Saints, Sinners, and Wire Hires

Texans: (Childs)

Saint: Andre Johnson with no helmet, and just gloves burns the Eagles secondary. After the game Andre is carried off the field by Gary Kubiak screaming "Courtland Finnegan, I coming for you boy!!"
Sinner: Arian Forster with get his carries but look for Ward or even Slaton to steal some carries from him. Foster is coming of 30 rushes and 9 cathes last week vs TEN. and on a short week he could be worn on by the end of the game.
Wire Hire: Joel Dreessen is a top target since Owen Daniels is still OUT.

Eagles: (JD)
Saint: Jeremy Maclin should be able to torch the Texans secondary.
Sinner: Brett Celek will lose touches since the Eagles WR will be too busy running down the field alone.
Wire Hire: Jason Avant should be next in line to be picked up in any league. he will be a nice addition this week to your roster, especially in a PPR league.

Look for our Podcast this week and make sure to send in your questions.

Saints, Sinners and Wire Hires Week 6

noreply@blogger.com (JD Godchaux and Childs Dunbar) — Sun, 17 Oct 2010 08:54:00 -0700

Last week it was a trip to Vegas that derailed our podcasting. Totally our fault. This week it wasn't our fault. We actually recorded an entire show and it was awesome - without a doubt the best fantasy football podcast ever recorded. Clearly, however, the recording software thought otherwise and recorded nothing but static.

For those of you eagerly awaiting the next show (and that's all of you), we promise that we'll get one out next week. In the meantime, we did pick our Saints, Sinners and Wire Hires for Week 6 that you can see below. We know it's not as satisfying as hearing us BS for an hour, but hopefully when our picks go off, you'll forgive us.

Remember that our Saints are guys that we recommend to start that normally wouldn't in fantasy match-ups (or, in some cases, they might be the only guy worth starting on that team), our Sinners are guys that we're recommending to sit who usually start and our Wire Hires are guys that you can pick up an play in that match-up if your desperate for a starter.

Sinners: Matt Hasselbeck, Matt Forte

Childs and JD talk about all news, injuries, all the Week 4 matchups and guys that you can use on your first bye week to fill in. And for some reason, we make a bet on Denver WRs. It's anyone's guess who'll win that one. Good luck in Week 4!
