With the fantasy season at an end, Jason Smith looks back at the year and builds a list of rules for fantasy owners to help them succeed in 2012.

Don’t file this one as a surprise: The Browns plan to release veteran QB Jake Delhomme.

Even if Mike Holmgren is hesitant to do so, I have no problem anointing Colt McCoy as the Browns’ starting quarterback for next season. Of course, we know it’s not my decision.

It’s always been my mentality that you have to play a young quarterback to know what you have in him. The time for the Browns to play rookie Colt McCoy is now. If they don’t play him, they won’t know.

I was very encouraged at what I saw from rookie QB Colt McCoy. I don’t know that you could ever put a rookie quarterback in a more difficult situation in his NFL debut than what McCoy faced against the Steelers.

Anyone wearing white and taking snaps Sunday in Pittsburgh is taking plenty of hits. One of them — WR/Wildcat QB Joshua Cribbs – won’t return to the game after suffering a head injury.

Browns rookie QB Colt McCoy will make his first NFL start Sunday. The bad news? He’ll face the Steelers’ blitz-crazy defense. The good news? He’ll have bruising RB Peyton Hillis at his disposal.

Peyton Hillis has been a fantasy star this season, but he’s a major risk in Week 6.

I know Browns fans might not want to hear this, because they’re probably not enjoying all the losing, but I really think this team is on the right track.

A look at some of the notable injuries around the NFL in Week 5.

Jake Delhomme replaced Seneca Wallace at quarterback to start the second half for the Browns.

While QB Jake Delhomme is active for the Browns, Seneca Wallace will start against the Falcons.

The Browns will be Seneca Wallace‘s team in Sunday’s game against the Chiefs.

The Cowboys offensive line will get a boost with the return of linemen Marc Colombo and Kyle Kosier. And not a moment too soon, facing Bears DE Julius Peppers this week, too.

At the final day of Browns’ minicamp on Saturday, coach Eric Mangini came as close to naming Jake Delhomme the starter as he could without actually saying Delhomme is the starter.
