Chargers Defense Struggles In Week 1 Loss

The Los Angeles Chargers defense struggled in a 36-34 Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. They allowed all 36 points without recording a sack. They did secure one interception and one fumble recovery, but Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was getting so wide open on every play that no NFL quarterback would have struggled […]

Cameron Dicker Has A Perfect Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker had a perfect Week 1 performance, making all four of his extra points and two field goals. His field goals came from 25 and 50 yards out, with the 50 yarder setting a new career long for "Dicker the Kicker". Locked into a strong offensive team, Dicker should return […]

Donald Parham Jr. Scores A Touchdown In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham Jr. scored a touchdown in a Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. Parham was targeted three times, catching all three for a total of 21 yards. The Chargers used the tight end's impressive size (6'8") and quarterback Justin Herbert's extremely accurate arm to get him open in […]

Gerald Everett Has Two Catches In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett made just two catches in Week 1, gaining 21 yards. He was targeted three times, as was fellow tight end Donald Parham. The two tight ends splitting targets is bad news for both in terms of fantasy prospects, but it was also a very run-based offensive attack for […]

Quentin Johnston Debuts With Two Catches In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston made his NFL debut on Sunday and came up with two catches. He was targeted three times, and gained just nine yards total. The Chargers went with a very run-focused offensive attack, not leaving much in terms of opportunities for their receivers. Still, Johnston did receive one […]

Mike Williams Works Around An Injury In Week 1

Keenan Allen Catches Six Passes In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen got the season off to a solid start. He caught six passes on nine targets, gaining 76 yards. Allen easily led the team in catches and targets and should do the same most weeks. He's the clear top receiving option on a team that should score plenty of […]

Joshua Kelley Gets An Even Split Of Carries In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers running back Joshua Kelley got the same number of carries as starter Austin Ekeler in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Kelley ran the ball 16 times, gaining 91 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was targeted once in the passing game but was unable to make the catch. With Isaiah Spiller […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 24

We're here, folks. We made it. We've arrived. Mission accomplished. Other such clichés. It's the fantasy baseball playoffs in most leagues by now. By next week, it'll be the playoffs in almost every league. As football season has its Week 1, baseball season has some of its biggest games. Every save, hold, strikeout, and inning […]

Chargers Defense A Risky Week 1 Option

The Los Angeles Chargers defense is a risky option in Week 1 fantasy lineups. Although they certainly have upside and should be better than last season, it's difficult to trust a defensive unit that hasn't finished higher than 20th in fantasy since 2017. A game against the Dolphins and their speedy receiving corps isn't the […]

Cameron Dicker A Solid Week 1 Kicking Option

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker makes for a solid kicking option in Week 1 fantasy lineups. Dicker won the job over veteran Dustin Hopkins in the preseason after appearing in 10 games for the Bolts last year and making 95% of his field goal tries and all of his extra points. "Dicker the Kicker" […]

Gerald Everett Could Surprise In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett could have some surprising upside in a Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins. Everett was solid last season, finishing as the overall TE14, but could have a huge up arrow next to his name this year as he'll presumably fill the Dalton Schultz role in the new […]

Quentin Johnston Set For His First Real NFL Action In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston is set for his first regular season NFL action in a Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins. Johnston opens the season as the fourth wide receiver on the Chargers depth chart, behind Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Joshua Palmer, but it's hard to see him staying […]

Mike Williams Hopes For A Boom In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has been a boom-or-bust fantasy asset for most of his career, but he'll look to get the season off with a boom in Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins. The last time Williams played against the Dolphins, he caught six passes for 116 yards and a touchdown, having […]

Keenan Allen Looks For A Good Start In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will look for a good start to his 11th NFL season in a Week 1 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Allen has been a fantasy WR1 in five of the last six seasons, and assuming he remains healthy this year, he should be able to post another top-12 […]

Austin Ekeler An Excellent Option In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is an excellent fantasy option in a Week 1 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Ekeler has overall RB2 and RB1 finishes over the past two seasons, and there's no reason to believe he can't repeat that this year. While the Chargers are saying he may not see the […]

Justin Herbert Set For A Strong Start In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is primed for a strong start to the season in a Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins. Herbert had to deal with a ton of injuries to the Chargers offense last season and still ended up as the overall QB12. With a new offense and (so far) no […]

Cowboys Defense Could Get Off To A Good Start In Week 1

The Dallas Cowboys defense could get the season off to a good start in a Week 1 game against the New York Giants. The Cowboys come into the season with a highly rated defensive unit that ended last season as the second best fantasy defense just one season after finishing first. They remain an elite […]

Brandon Aubrey Fine As A Week 1 Kicking Option

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is fine as a kicking option in Week 1 fantasy lineups. With kicker being fantasy football's most unpredictable position, why not give a shot to a former professional soccer player in that spot? Aubrey only missed one kick in his USFL season, so he should at least be accurate. He's […]

Jake Ferguson Looks For A Strong Week 1

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson will look for a good Week 1 performance in his first game as a full-fledged starter. Working behind Dalton Schultz last season, Ferguson caught 19 of the 22 balls thrown his way. He'll have some competition from second round rookie tight end Luke Schoonmaker, but Ferguson could see plenty […]

Michael Gallup Looks To Spring Into A Strong Week 1

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup will look to spring into a solid start to the season in a Week 1 game against the New York Giants. Gallup was limited for a lot of last season, he didn't even start his season until Week 4 and oftentimes just did not seem fully recovered from his […]

Brandin Cooks Should Get A Solid Start To The Season In Week 1

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks should be able to get his Cowboys career off to a solid start in a Week 1 matchup against the New York Giants. Cooks was acquired in a trade with the Houston Texans this offseason, and looks like he'll immediately slide in as the second most popular target in […]

CeeDee Lamb Should Start Off With A Strong Week 1

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb should hit the ground running with a strong Week 1 performance against the division rival New York Giants. Lamb has gotten better and better each of his NFL seasons and should remain the alpha receiver on a team that will likely throw the ball plenty of times per week. […]

Tony Pollard Set For A Big Week 1

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard is set for a big performance in a Week 1 game against the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football. Pollard enters the year as the undisputed starter in the Cowboys backfield and gets to start his season off against a Giants defense that was 22nd in the league […]

Dak Prescott A Decent Option In Week 1

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a decent option in a Week 1 matchup against the division rival New York Giants. Prescott played in one game against the Giants last season and threw for 261 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. With a new offensive system and some new faces on the field around […]

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 23

We're getting real close, folks. Some fantasy baseball leagues have already started their playoffs and most others aren't too far away from the first round. It's baseball, so every stat always matters, but never as much as in the playoffs. One save, one hold, one earned run allowed, one strikeout...we've all seen or at least […]

Quentin Johnston Catches Two More Preseason Passes

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston caught two more passes in the final Chargers preseason game, gaining 15 yards total. Johnston was targeted just twice in a game where the Chargers mostly kept the ball on the ground. Johnston's 15 yards receiving led the team and his two catches were just one behind […]

Joshua Kelley Scores A Long Preseason Touchdown

Los Angeles Chargers running back Joshua Kelley got two carries in the third Chargers preseason game, but made the most of one of them, totaling 78 yards with his two totes. But one of them was a 75-yard touchdown, so he got all of his scheduled running in on one play. Kelley should open the […]
