Thanks, Peter, That's Very Helpful
I'm going to go ahead and follow FJM's lead by criticizing Peter King's weekly fantasy advice article. For those who haven't read these things, rest assured that PK's otherwise pretty solid knowledge of the players/teams/game does not translate to the world of fantasy sports. In fact, I'm pretty sure he's only played fantasy football, like, once. If that.
This particular foible isn't really about bad advice, though, per se, so much as..."huh?" advice:
Got Cedric Benson? This is the week he blows up against the Lions.
Peter...uh? Wait wait wait- what does that even mean? Does that mean he "explodes" with lots of yardage and touchdowns? OR does that mean Benson completely "falls apart" against a ferocious(uhhh...) Lion defense?
Personally, I really hope that he literally meant that Cedric Benson's body will shatter into thousands of pieces rapidly moving away from each other. That would be....AWESOME (ifnotgrossandsad).
Also, in a possible sequel to last week's advice to sit Brian Westbrook, this week he's advising to sit Larry Johnson for "any warm-bodied running option." Will do, Peter.
