Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 6

In Week 5, Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller was the best wide receiver play of the week. Even if you didn't play Fuller and missed out on his big day, you still had a chance to win your DFS contests if you played other receiver options that were recommended in this column, such as Michael […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 5 Outliers

In Week 5, there were several players that exploded in fantasy lineups, scoring multiple touchdowns. Wide receivers Will Fuller, Michael Thomas, D.J. Chark, Adam Thielen, Chris Godwin and Allen Robinson all had multiple receiving touchdowns and should have been in fantasy lineups in leagues of all sizes. Although these studs had huge performances, Week 5 […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 5

In Week 4, Cooper Kupp and Kenny Golladay came through in a big way if you rolled them out in your DFS lineups. The other wide receivers that were recommended in this weekly piece didn't have the greatest days at the office. D.J. Moore had a great matchup, but he simply wasn't targeted often enough […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 4 Outliers

Through the first four weeks of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better picture of the fantasy landscape as offensive roles continue to solidify. However, as we start to figure out who the go-to-guys are on each team, so are opposing defensive coordinators. Because of this, from week to week, certain studs […]

Auden Tate Targeted Six Times In Loss

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate looked good in the Week 4 loss to the Steelers, but quarterback Andy Dalton simply couldn't get the ball to him consistently. Dalton struggled behind a makeshift offensive line, connecting with Tate four times off of six targets for 50 yards. The Florida State product heads into Week 5 with […]

Tyler Eifert Has A Quiet Week 4

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert was targeted five times in Week 4 against the Steelers, hauling in just two of them for 27 yards. Eifert was targeted in the end zone once, but he failed to catch the pass. The Bengals tight end remains a touchdown-dependent streaming option at the tight end position in […]

Andy Dalton Sacked Eight Times By Steelers

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton had a Monday night to forget in Week 4 against the Steelers as the Bengals fell to 0-4 on the season. The Bengals offensive line was outmatched by the Steelers defensive front all night, and as a result Dalton was sacked eight times in the contest. The TCU product ended […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Scores In Week 4

Cleveland Browns tight end Ricky Seals-Jones had a decent day in Week 4 while filling in for the injured David Njoku (wrist), catching all three of his targets for 82 yards and one touchdown. Seals-Jones had a long play of 59 yards on a play where he was left wide open by the Ravens secondary. […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Slowed By Marlon Humphrey

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was contained for much of the day by Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey.

Jarvis Landry Has 167 Yards Against Ravens

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry had a career day in Week 4 against the Baltimore Ravens. Landry clearly had the favorable matchup in the Ravens secondary, as Marlon Humphrey locked down Odell Beckham Jr. Landry was targeted 10 times, catching eight balls for 167 yards. Landry's longest play of the day came on a […]

Nick Chubb Scores Three Touchdowns Against Ravens

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb absolutely exploded in Week 4 against the Baltimore Ravens, carrying the ball 20 times for 165 yards and a whopping three touchdowns. Chubb's biggest play came on an 88-yard touchdown run. The Ravens were without their talented defensive tackle Brandon Williams, and they missed him dearly as they struggled […]

Baker Mayfield Throws For 342 Yards Against Ravens

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield went 20 of 30 passing for 342 yards and one touchdown in Week 4 against the Baltimore Ravens. Mayfield didn't need to put the ball in the air much, but when he did he was effective. The Ravens put the clamps down on Odell Beckham Jr., but Mayfield was able […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target In Week 4

In Week 3, several of the wide receivers that were recommended in this column went off which helped to make up for a lesser showing in Week 2. The highlight of Week 2 was the three-touchdown performance from Mike Evans where he absolutely scorched the Giants secondary for 190 yards. Tyler Boyd had a modest performance […]

John Ross Has A Tough Matchup Against Joe Haden

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross has been a WR1 through the first three weeks of the season and currently stands No. 4 in the NFL with 292 yards receiving. In Week 3, however, Ross was slowed by Tre'Davious White (two catches, 22 yards) and figures to see a lot of Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe […]

Andy Dalton Primed For A Big Monday Night

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton has really benefited from head coach Zac Taylor's play-calling this season, as he's currently on pace for 5,221 passing yards this year. The Pittsburgh Steelers have given up an average of 306 passing yards and 2.3 touchdowns a game to opposing quarterbacks through the first three weeks of the season. […]

Joe Mixon Needs A Big Day Against The Steelers

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is off to an extremely slow start in 2019, but he should bounce back against the Steelers in Week 4. Through the first three games of the season, the Steelers have given up the fourth most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. Opposing running backs have been […]

Tyler Boyd Has Been Dominating Targets

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd is third in the NFL with 33 targets through the first three weeks of the season. John Ross will have a tough matchup against Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden, which means Andy Dalton may need to look Boyd's way a lot in Week 4. Boyd has a tough matchup […]

Tyler Eifert Has A Chance To Score In Week 4

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert has only been targeted by Andy Dalton on 11 passes through the first three games of the season. Eifert has been able to haul in nine of those passes for an unimpressive 6.0 yards per catch. The Steelers have been stingy against tight ends so far this season, giving […]

Curtis Samuel Should Shine Against the Texans

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel was effective last week against the Arizona Cardinals, even with Kyle Allen playing quarterback in place of the injured Cam Newton (foot). In Week 3, Samuel hauled in five of his seven targets for 53 yards and a touchdown. Samuel should have similar success against Houston Texans cornerback Johnathan […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 3 Outliers

Through the first three weeks of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better picture of the fantasy landscape as offensive roles continue to solidify. However, there were a few players that didn't have their normal roles in Week 3, and those situations warrant a closer look. It's also a little concerning that […]

Marquise Brown Held To 49 Yards

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown came out of the gates on fire in Week 1 and has come back down to earth a little bit since then, failing to score in his last two games. In Week 3, Brown had just two catches for 49 yards. Lamar Jackson completed just 22 of his 43 […]

Mark Andrews Underwhelms Against The Chiefs

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews came into Week 3 nursing a foot injury and was expected to play a lesser role in the offense because of it. Regardless of the injury, Andrews was still able to run decent routes, and actually got loose on a deep route that Lamar Jackson overthrew him on. The […]

John Ross Disappears Against The Bills

After a hot start to the 2019 season, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross came back down to earth against the Buffalo Bills in Week 3. Ross saw coverage from Tre'Davious White for much of the game, and was only able to reel in two of his six targets for 22-scoreless yards. Ross will have […]

Tyler Boyd Has A Modest Week 3 Performance

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd was heavily targeted (11) by Andy Dalton in Week 3, coming down with six catches for 67-yards. Andy Dalton was under tremendous pressure from the Bills defensive line for much of the day and was forced to rush many of his throws, resulting in a few errant passes directed […]

Tyler Eifert Tackled Just Shy Of The End Zone

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert was targeted just once in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills. Eifert nearly converted his lone 18-yard catch for a score, but was tackled just short of the goal line. Eifert has remained healthy through the first three weeks of the season, but he remains a touchdown dependent streaming […]

Joe Mixon Scores In Bengals Loss

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon carried the ball 15 times for 61 yards in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills, adding two catches for 34 yards and a touchdown. Mixon was bottled up for much of the day as the Bengals makeshift offensive line continued to struggle, but he was able to rip off […]

Auden Tate Leads The Bengals In Receiving

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate started in place of Damion Willis in Week 3 and made the most of his opportunity, catching six of his 11 targets for 88 yards. At 6'5" and 228 pounds, Tate is a physically imposing wide receiver, but it's likely Week 3 will be his best performance of the […]

Andy Dalton Comes Up Short Against The Bills

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton was under siege by the Buffalo Bills Defense for much of the day as the Bengals offensive line continues to struggle without starting left tackle Cordy Glenn. Dalton was forced to rush many of his throws, and as a result he narrowly missed Tyler Boyd several times. Dalton ended his […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 3

In Week 2, only two of the wide receivers featured in this column found the end zone, which made for some tough sledding.

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 2 Outliers

Through the first two weeks of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better handle on whether certain players are breaking out, or are one-week wonders. After Week 1, it was unclear whether Marquise Brown would be able to sustain his fantasy production off his 18% snap share. However, in Week 2, Brown […]
