Fantasy Update: Anthony Gonzalez Hurt In Colts Win
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez left Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars with a knee injury.

NFL Superlatives
Offensive MVP:
Will: Drew Brees (NO) – Brees was robbed for the award last season when the media dinosaurs gave the award to Peyton Manning because of the lack of an established name at the top of the stat sheets. We’ve stated before that no other player could have guided last year’s Saints to an 8-8 [...]

Why Drew Brees is the Best Player in Football
Peyton has the MVP’s. Brady’s got the rings, but no single player does more for his team than Brees. Sound crazy?
