Chargers Defense Has A Chance To Bounce Back In Week 17

The Los Angeles Chargers defense is a solid play in Week 17 against the New England Patriots.

They're showing up in the top-five […]

Cameron Dicker Looks For Another Strong Game In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker will look for another strong game in a Week 17 matchup against the New England Patriots. Dicker has been a top-five fantasy kicker this season and there's no reason to think he won't end up with a top-10 finish in this game. With the Chargers favored over the Patriots, […]

Stone Smartt's Week 17 Role To Be Determined

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Stone Smartt could remain as the starter in Week 17 against the New England Patriots, but that remains to be seen. Fellow tight ends Will Dissly (shoulder) and Hayden Hurst (illness) are both listed as questionable. Dissly missed the past two games but practiced in full on Thursday after logging […]

Joshua Palmer Too Risky To Trust In Week 17 Lineups

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer is too risky to trust in a critical Week 17 fantasy week. The Chargers will take on the New England Patriots on Saturday, and while that's a good matchup for Palmer, he's been playing in much more of a support role in the Bolts passing game than anything […]

Quentin Johnston Searches For Consistency In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston will have another good matchup where he can try to find some consistency in Week 17 against the New England Patriots. Johnston has had a boom-or-bust season without too many huge booms. In the past four games, he has either finished as a top-25 fantasy receiver or outside […]

Ladd McConkey Set Up For A Strong Performance In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey is set up for a strong performance in a Week 17 Saturday game against the New England Patriots.

Hassan Haskins Could Have A Larger Role In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins could have a larger role than usual in a Week 17 game against the New England Patriots. With Gus Edwards (ankle) ruled out and J.K. Dobbins (knee) questionable after missing the past four games, Haskins and rookie Kimani Vidal could split the backfield in a game in which […]

Kimani Vidal Could Have A Huge Role In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Kimani Vidal could end up in the starting role in a Week 17 game against the New England Patriots. Starter J.K.

Justin Herbert Has A Good Matchup For Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has a good matchup against the New England Patriots defense in Week 17.

Chargers Defense Has A Tale Of Two Halves In Week 16 Win

The Los Angeles Chargers defense had a tale of two halves in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football.

Cameron Dicker Has An Exciting Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker had an exciting and productive game in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos.

Derius Davis Scores A Week 16 Touchdown

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Derius Davis scored a key touchdown in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football.

Stone Smartt Makes Three Catches In A Week 16 Win

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Stone Smartt made three catches on three targets in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football.

Ladd McConkey Makes Six More Catches In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey led the Chargers in catches again in a Week 16 win, making six catches on six targets for 87 yards. McConkey made some huge catches in this one and got some solid yardage after the catch as well. His long play was a 27-yard gain on his […]

Chargers Defense Looks For A Rebound In Week 16

The Los Angeles Chargers defense will look to rebound from their worst performance of the season in a Week 16 Thursday Night Football game against the Denver Broncos.

Joshua Palmer An Underwhelming Option In Week 16 Lineups

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer is an underwhelming option in Week 16 fantasy lineups.

He's peaked at 13.3 fantasy points but has scored single digit points […]

Quentin Johnston Looks To Continue His Solid Run In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston will look to continue his recent solid run in a Week 16 Thursday Night Football game against the Denver Broncos.

Kimani Vidal Too Risky To Start In Fantasy Lineups In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Kimani Vidal is far too risky to start in a key fantasy matchup like Week 16. The Chargers take on the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football, and the Broncos defense has been tough on opposing running backs all season long. Vidal has shown some flashes in his rookie […]

Gus Edwards Not Worth Much Fantasy Consideration In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is not in the fantasy starter conversation in a Week 16 Thursday Night Football game against the Denver Broncos.

Justin Herbert Ready To Go For Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has been removed from the injury report for Week 16 and is good to go for a Thursday Night Football game against the division-rival Denver Broncos.
