Rising Stars: Five NFL Assistant Coaches That Could Be Head Coaches Next Year

With the NFL playoffs in full swing, many teams are already looking ahead to preparations for the 2023 season. This offseason will include a head coaching change for at least five NFL teams - the Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos, Houston Texans, and Indianapolis Colts will all be looking to fill vacancies at head […]


Seahawks DST Ends Regular Season On High Note Vs. Rams

The Seattle Seahawks defense did just enough in a Week 18 overtime win against the Los Angeles Rams. Despite the Rams entering this game as the worst offense in the NFL by yardage, they went into halftime with the lead on Sunday, before the Seahawks hunkered down to only allow three points in the second […]


Jason Myers Kicks Seahawks To Overtime Victory Against Rams

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers made five-of-six total kicks on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, including a game-winning 32-yard field goal in overtime. The 31-year-old matched his season high in field goals made in a game with four, and exceeded his previous career best for field goals made in a season with 34. Myers […]


Noah Fant Has a Quiet Week 18

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant caught all four of his targets for 20 yards in a Week 18 overtime win versus the Los Angeles Rams at home. Fant had a down year in 2022, finishing with 486 receiving yards and four TDs. Fant landed on the Seahawks this past offseason in the trade that […]


D.K. Metcalf Disappoints On Sunday Against Rams

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf finished his 2022 regular season on a down note on Sunday, catching three-of-eight passes for 40 yards in a 19-16 overtime win versus the Los Angeles Rams. Rams CB Jalen Ramsey was a headache for the Seattle offense all afternoon, quieting Metcalf for the most part and coming away […]


Tyler Lockett Scores TD In Week 18 Overtime Win

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett ended the regular season with a satisfactory outing on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, catching four balls for 54 yards and a touchdown in a 19-16 overtime win. Lockett finished his regular season with a team-leading nine receiving TDs to go along with his fourth-straight 1,000-yard season. The […]


Kenneth Walker III Ends Rookie Season On A High

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III put an exclamation mark on his impressive rookie campaign against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, rushing for 114 yards on 29 carries and adding one catch for 10 receiving yards. The 2022 second-round draft pick, who is the odds-on favorite for Rookie of the Year this season, […]


Geno Smith Does Just Enough In Win Against Rams

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had a serviceable outage against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, helping the Seahawks to a 16-13 overtime win and keeping his team's playoff hopes alive. Smith went 19-for-31 for 213 passing yards, 1 touchdown, and 2 interceptions, along with 51 yards on the ground. The 32-year-old broke Seattle's single-season […]


Raiders Defense Surrenders 31 Points In Week 18 Loss

The Las Vegas Raiders defense finished a disappointing 2022 season in similar fashion on Saturday, giving up 31 points in a home loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. They managed two sacks and zero turnovers, not having an answer for the Chiefs top-ranked offensive attack. Despite having a talented defensive roster led by Pro Bowl […]


Daniel Carlson Makes Three Kicks In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson hit on all three of his kicks in a 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday, including two field goals and one extra point. The 27-year-old made his league-leading 11th field goal of over 50 yards in the first quarter. Carlson finished the season with a 92% […]


Foster Moreau A Non-Factor In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Foster Moreau wasn't heavily involved on Saturday, catching one reception for 10 yards. The fourth-year pro finished the 2022 season with the highest-receiving output of his career, accumulating 33 catches for 420 yards through the air. Moreau projects as an interesting TE2 with upside next season, needing additional volume before […]


Darren Waller Finishes 2023 Quietly Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller caught three-of-four passes for 40 receiving yards during the team's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. The seventh-year veteran played in only eight games this season, his lowest total since becoming a full-time starter in 2019. Waller, who will be 31 next September, signed a […]


Mack Hollins Fizzles Against Chiefs in Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Mack Hollins caught three-of-four passes for 40 receiving yards during the team's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. The 29-year-old will enter free agency after an impressive 2022 campaign that saw him finish second on the Raiders in receiving behind star WR Davante Adams. Hollins is an […]


Hunter Renfrow Saves His Best For Last

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow caught all seven of his targets for 63 receiving yards and one touchdown during the team's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Renfrow led the team in targets and scored the Raiders' only offensive touchdown, waiting until Week 18 to score his highest fantasy point […]


Davante Adams Goes For 73 Yards Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams caught five-of nine targets for 73 receiving yards in the team's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. He left the game briefly in the fourth quarter after a hard hit, but returned soon after. Adams showed chemistry with QB Jarrett Stidham in their two games […]


Josh Jacobs Tamed In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had a relatively quiet day for fantasy managers in a tough matchup on Sunday, carrying the ball 17 times for 45 yards, adding two catches for five yards through the air. He finished with less than 10 half-PPR fantasy points for just the second time in his last […]


Jarrett Stidham Comes Down To Earth In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jarrett Stidham struggled on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, completing 22-of-36 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, adding 50 yards on the ground. The 26-year-old showed promise in his two-game tryout for the Raiders starting QB job next year, finishing with 584 passing yards, four touchdowns, three […]

Is Dawson Knox Playing In Week 18? Should I Pick Up And Start Knox For Fantasy Football?

TE Dawson Knox is rounding into form at the perfect time for the Buffalo Bills after scoring a touchdown in each of his last three games. Knox has been battling a hip injury this week, however, which limited him in practice on Thursday, and could play a role on Sunday. Is Dawson Knox playing in […]

Is Josh Jacobs Playing In Week 18? Should I Start Zamir White for Fantasy Football?

While many fantasy football leagues conclude their championships in Week 17, Week 18 brings one final full slate of NFL games for DFS and the opportunity for fantasy glory in leagues that go until the end of the regular season. The Las Vegas Raiders have been surprisingly fantasy-relevant in 2022, starting with the league’s leading […]


Daniel Carlson A Mid-Range Starting Kicker In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson showed his strong leg yet again in Week 17, connecting on two field goals, including a 57-yarder that extended his league lead on made kicks over 50 yards to 10 on the year. Carlson has a matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs at home to finish the season. With […]


Avoid Raiders Defense Against The Chiefs

The wheels have come off for the Las Vegas Raiders defense this season. After losing starters DE Chandler Jones, LB Denzel Perryman, and CB Rock Ya-Sin to Injured Reserve last week, the Raiders defense gave up 37 points in an overtime loss to the QB Brock Purdy-led San Francisco 49ers in Week 17. This week […]


Foster Moreau A Sneaky DFS Pick On Saturday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Foster Moreau has been a rising name in fantasy football this year, hitting career highs in targets, receptions, and receiving yards as the Raiders' third-leading receiver so far in 2022. The 25-year-old had his highest receiving total of the season in Week 17 with QB Jarret Stidham making his first […]


Darren Waller A Low-End TE1 Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller has a matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18, who rank as the third-easiest fantasy matchup for opposing TEs this season. Despite scoring two TDs in the three games since his return from injury, Waller has been out-snapped by fellow TE Foster Moreau in each contest, […]


Mack Hollins A Dart-Throw DFS Play Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Mack Hollins finishes a career year against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18. Despite setting career highs in all receiving categories - his highest receiving total prior to this season was 226 yards in 2017 - Hollins has been an inconsistent flex play in fantasy this year. His high […]


Avoid Hunter Renfrow Against The Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow has disappointed fantasy managers for the majority of the 2022 season, and Week 17 was no different. The 27-year-old caught three balls for 19 receiving yards against the 49ers, finishing outside the top 36 receivers for the eighth time in his nine games played this season. Renfrow is […]


Davante Adams A Top Option For One Final Week

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams enters Week 18 as the WR3 in fantasy football (half-PPR). Adams is coming off of a thrilling performance in the Raiders' 37-34 overtime loss to the 49ers last week in which he caught seven of 11 targets for 153 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Despite a few down […]


Josh Jacobs A Locked-And-Loaded RB1 Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs delivered again for fantasy managers in Week 17. Despite failing to top 100 rushing yards, his 21 touches and one rushing TD pushed him into RB1 territory once again. Jacobs has now finished RB10 or better in nine of his last 13 games (half-PPR), averaging 21.6 carries, 108.9 […]


Jarrett Stidham A Solid QB2 In Week 18

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jarrett Stidham has the opportunity to add to his resume after an impressive showing in his first start against the 49ers last week. Stidham finished as the fantasy QB3 in Week 17, passing for 365 yards, three touchdowns, two interceptions, and 34 rushing yards. He showed comfort with the offense, leading […]


Daniel Carlson Connects On Six Total Kicks In Week 17

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson hit on all six of his kicks against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, including two field goals and four extra points in a 37-34 overtime loss at home. Quarterback Jarrett Stidham impressed in his first career start, leading the Raiders to their third-highest offensive point total of the […]


Raiders Defense Torched By 49ers On Sunday

The Las Vegas Raiders defense continued their disappointing 2022 campaign with one of their worst performances of the season against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 18, allowing 37 points and 454 offensive yards while collecting one interception and zero sacks. Riddled by injuries, the Raiders defense could not stop the 49ers in the second […]
