Andy, I would just add that there was a lot of poor tackling on defense in the first half. Granted they had been on the field...

Tre Faaborg commented on It's Back To the Drawing Board for Mike Singletary and the 49ers

that was a pretty good analysis of the game. I would perhaps throw in a mention of the shotgun spread style offense that was successful in...

I have to say though, running Gore 7 times in the game doesn't make for much of a smashmouth style. More like short, ineffective passing game...

Hey Tre,

I just completed the second of a three part series between myself, Mike Kline and Justin McTeer, breaking down the Duke Blue Devils basketball season.

I highlight the back court of Duke and the different players that will need to contribute to the team. If you get a chance, check it out.

Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks!

I would take that unless you don't have any quality RBs other than MBIII. I'd caution against Brees starting fast and slowing down, but I expect Flacco to finish with far inferior numbers, so that doesn't matter.

Like I said, it depends on what your current lineup is. If you already have a stud QB and are hurting at RB, this trade MIGHT still make sense since you could turn around and swap one of your QBs for a better RB. If not, then the trade almost certainly makes sense in all other scenarios.

Seems like you did pretty well in your drafts. I know just what you mean about drafting with a bunch of guys who overvalue one position (QB, usually) and you end up taking one earlier than you want to just because the first 8 QBs were off the board already. The PPR league I mentioned with the two Johnson receivers and S-Jax and MJD ended up being a bad draft QB-wise, but Schaub and Edwards should do well enough to let my other guys win games.

That trade was foolish. Colston is unbenchable, and Bell and Crayton won't contribute consistently throughout the season.

I don't like guys coming after my elites either, especially this early in the year. Sometimes I'll try to sell a fluke player high after a good game for a currently underperforming guy who should have a better season overall, but that's exactly the kind of trade proposal I roll my eyes at.

Hey man, I want to know how your fantasy draft(s) went. Any great value picks? Any big mistakes?

I took a couple bad picks here and there but mostly had good drafts. I had one PPR draft where I ended up with Maurice Jones-Drew, Steven Jackson, Andre Johnson, AND Calvin Johnson. I didn't do great at QB, but my Schaub pick late looked pretty smart last week.
