  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don There’s no doubt the first 55 minutes of Thursday night’s game was brutal, but the ultimate payoff (and this coming from someone who picked the Jets ATS) made it worth it. Seriously how can an offense look so bad – they had five possessions that started in New York’s territory and…

  • Bet On It

    By Dalton Del Don Last week I went 8-8, losing my best. It’s past time to start fading my best bets this year. I’m 70-71-5 so far this year. Best bet is 3-6-1. Onto the Week 11 picks: JETS -6 at Broncos Panthers +7 at LIONS Buccaneers +15 at PACKERS Cowboys -8.5 at REDSKINS Bills…

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don As someone who had been relying on Darrius Heyward-Bey, then subsequently spent FAAB on Jacoby Ford only to see the latter leave with a serious injury after his first catch Thursday, I wasn’t too pleased.

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don If Felix Jones remains in the mix after returning from injury it would hardly be the first time a coach plays a less deserving veteran over a superior younger player, so a timeshare can’t be ruled out, but I’d have a hard time not treating DeMarco Murray as a top-10 fantasy…

    By Dalton Del Don Last week I went 4-8-1, also losing my best bet thanks in part to a missed 31-yard field at the buzzer. I’m 56-55-5 so far this year. Best bet is 3-4-1. Onto the Week 9 picks: DOLPHINS +4 at Chiefs Buccaneers +9 at SAINTS Falcons -7 at COLTS BROWNS +11 at…

  • The Scoop

    By Dalton Del Don Eli Manning completed 68.9 percent of his passes for 349 yards with a 2:0 TD:INT ratio Sunday, and while it came against a suspect secondary that was dealing with injuries, the numbers could have been much bigger had the Giants not suffered numerous drops on perfectly thrown passes (Hakeem Nicks and…
