It's Week…Lou hurriedly counts on his fingers, apparently confused as to why they stop at five on one hand…seven! It's Week 7, folks! Boy, time flies when you're having fun.

It's Week 6, and there are only two teams on bye: the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings. Enough time has gone by this season that we're starting to know what these teams are in 2025. Like the Colts, it's much more than a hot start at this point; they're AFC contenders. There's a lot of

Preseason Week 2 has now come and gone, and if you're not a complete degenerate like me, you didn't watch all the games and break down game film. Frankly, I'm proud of you for that. Just like Preseason Week 1, we have some expectations to set here. But first, an acknowledgement. I could not write

Welcome to the AFC West version of Optimus Fantasy's Team Previews! Today, we're looking at the Denver Broncos. In order to best know where we're going, we often need to study where we've been. With that in mind, I will cover what the team looked like in 2024, fantasy significant changes to philosophy and personnel,

Did you watch all of those preseason games? No?! Well, that's OK, I didn't either. But I did go back and watch the relevant parts of all of the ones I missed to bring you this article. Let's start off by setting some expectations about this column: Jobs are not won or lost in Week
