Weekly Fantasy Football take on a positive and a negative after the Sunday NFL games

Positive

It seems like we finally have a few new Fantasy Football Quarterbacks to choose from this season. Specifically two Quarterbacks have played their way into Fantasy Football stars right in front of us. We are talking about Matt Cassel and Sam Bradford. During the beginning of the season many Fantasy Football GM�s stayed away from these two players due to past history. Matt Cassel represented the Quarterback that has not amounted to much after a sophomore slump and Bradford represented rookies on bad teams. Early in the season these guys did nothing to prove us wrong but that has changed as of late.

In the last 7 games Matt Cassel has been outstanding. He has put up 18 touchdowns and 1 interception. As a Fantasy Football GM myself I would take those numbers in a heartbeat. What about Bradford? In his last 7 games Bradford has tallied 11 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. He also had his first 300+ yard game of the season in Week 12 against the Broncos. Clearly, these two players are on up and coming teams and have a great future as Fantasy Football Quarterbacks. Can�t wait to see, where these two are ranked at the beginning of next season.

Negative

We are getting close to the end of the Fantasy Football regular season. Many leagues end their regular seasons during Week 13 to avoid the NFL playoffs and NFL teams resting players. What has been hard to avoid as usual is injuries. Just look at what happened on Monday night. Frank Gore already injured started the game and after looking very promising fractured his hip. That was a clear team killer for all the GM�s that drafted him in the first or second round. Here are just some of the players affected by major injuries during this Fantasy Football season:

QB Tony Romo
QB Vince Young
QB Bruce Gradkowski
RB Clinton Portis
RB DeAngelo Williams
RB Montario Hardesty
RB Kevin Smith
RB Ryan Grant
RB Reggie Bush
RB Jerious Norwood
WR Austin Collie
WR Sidney Rice
WR Roscoe Parrish
WR Anthony Gonzalez
TE Jermichael Finley
TE Dallas Clark

Looks much worse when you put it in a list...
