Tyrell Williams Shines Like Fool's Gold

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams has been the man over the last couple weeks. Williams has racked up 236 yards and three touchdowns over the last two weeks, and he reminded everyone that he's one of the fastest players in the league. Unfortunately, his style of play is a risky one for fantasy […]

Mike Williams Is All Or Nothing

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has all the talent to be a top-flight receiver, but for now he's stuck in the doldrums of decoy/one-timer. Williams has only caught one pass in three of his last four games, but one of those was a tantalizing 55-yard touchdown versus the Titans. Williams is floating around […]

Austin Ekeler's Start Up In The Air

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is kind of at the mercy of the injury gods right now, but not due to any ailments of his own. Instead, whether Ekeler starts depends on Melvin Gordon's balky hamstring. Gordon was a full participant in practice on Friday, which hints at him being able to go […]

Melvin Gordon Fully Participates In Practice

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon remains questionable with a lingering hamstring issue, but he was a full participant in practice on Friday. That's the good news, as it bodes well for this chances of playing on Sunday. The bad news is that even if he does play, there will be questions about his […]

Philip Rivers Facing Tough Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has his work cut out for him this week. Coming off the bye, Rivers is matched up against the stingiest defense in the league versus opposing quarterbacks. Seattle's Legion of Boom may be gone, but head coach Pete Carroll has reloaded his defense with stellar players at every level. […]

Bobby Wagner Destroys Detroit Running Game

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner was going to ensure Seattle didn't lose due to the rush on Sunday. Kerryon Johnson was coming off a 158-yard shellacking of the Dolphins last week, so Wagner buckled down and held him to just 22 yards on eight carries. That was the rookie's worst performance on the ground since […]

Sebastian Janikowski Laughs At Your Extra Points

Seattle Seahawks kicker Sebastian Janikowski nailed four extra points on Sunday in Detroit to bring his total to 17 on the season. He's been perfect on the tries this season, and while he got no field goal chances this week, he's knocked through at least one from 40+ in five of the other six weeks […]

Doug Baldwin Disappoints In Detroit

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin posted another poor outing on Sunday as he only caught two passes for 26 yards. Baldwin was targeted just three times, and he's now only been a primary target in two of his five games this season. He's openly admitted that his knee won't be able to fully recover […]

David Moore Finds The End Zone Once Again

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore has certainly established himself as part of the crew now. Moore hauled in four passes for 97 yards in Detroit, including another touchdown and a 45-yarder that was the longest completion of his career. Moore also played one of the main parts in the team's baseball-related end zone celebration […]

Tyler Lockett Keeps The Touchdown Train Going

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett may not get very many chances, but when he does, he's finding paydirt. Lockett was only targeted twice in Detroit on Sunday, but he caught both passes and took a 24-yarder in for the TD. Lockett's fantasy value has been great so far, but the basic concern is still […]

Nick Vannett Has Touchdown Called Back

Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett only finished with one catch in the team's win over the Lions, but he was close to tacking on a touchdown. Vannett caught a beautiful fourth-down pass from quarterback Russell Wilson, but it was called back due to illegal touching by Vannett. Vannett's been the team's only real option […]

Ed Dickson Scores In Debut

Seattle Seahawks tight end Ed Dickson finally got on the field this week, and he made his presence felt by hauling in a touchdown against Detroit. Dickson caught both passes sent his way, and he finished the game with 54 yards receiving after a huge 42-yard gainer. Dickson has previously shown that he can be […]

Rashaad Penny Returns To Purgatory

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny was left wanting on Sunday against Detroit as he was given no offensive touches. Last week in London, Penny found himself solidly in the mix, and he impressed, so the thought was that maybe the time had come for him to see more action. Head coach Pete Carroll […]

Mike Davis Continues Complementary Role

Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis was once again the No. 2 guy on Sunday as he carried the ball 10 times for 33 yards and caught one pass. He went without a score for the second straight game, and he's now carried the ball 12 times or less in each of the last three […]

Chris Carson Carries The Water Against Lions

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson was every bit the primary back on Sunday against Detroit as he hauled the ball 25 times for 105 yards and a touchdown. He also chipped in a couple receptions for another 19 yards. It was the most carries for Carson in a month, and he's now topped 100 […]

Russell Wilson Posts Perfect Passer Rating

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has joined an exclusive club by posting a perfect passer rating of 158.3 on Sunday against the Lions. Wilson went 14-for-17 for 248 yards and three touchdowns, and it's the 41st time the feat has occurred in the modern era. Wilson looked calm and collected behind a stellar offensive line […]

Sebastian Janikowski Is Money

In the last five games, Seattle Seahawks kicker Sebastian Janikowski has made 21 of 23 kicks he's attempted. Seven of those makes have been field goals, and six of those have been from 40+ yards. Janikowski is one of just seven kickers to have kicked 17 or more extra points and still make all of […]

David Moore Is A Long-Shot Play Again

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore has done it the last two weeks, but can he do it again in Detroit? Moore is Seattle's clear No. 3 receiver, but his acrobatic catches and incredible hands have landed him three touchdowns in the last five passes he's caught. Moore's performances have landed him on highlight reels […]

Doug Baldwin Looking To Build On London Game

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin finally looked like his old self when he was in London. Baldwin has been dealing with a balky knee all season, and it's expected to continue to be a hindrance as the year goes on, but he didn't look slowed down by it against the Raiders. Baldwin posted 91 […]

Tyler Lockett Should Continue Good Season

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett was dealt a bit of a bad hand in London two weeks ago when he only racked up 13 yards on three catches, but one of them was for a touchdown, giving him a respectable fantasy performance anyway. This week against Detroit, he should get a chance to post […]

K.J. Wright Expected To Debut Sunday

Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright is finally expected to make his season debut on Sunday against the Lions. Wright has been sidelined since August due to arthroscopic knee surgery, and he talked with reporters at length about how difficult it was to sit at home and watch road games instead of getting to be with […]

Russell Wilson Goes Back To 2013

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has guided Seattle to wins in three of their last four games, and it's like he's taken a step back in time. When the Seahawks won the Super Bowl in 2013-14, it was on the back of a running game that allowed Wilson to work as an efficient playmaker who […]

Mike Davis Will See Questionable Amount Of Work

Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis is stuck in limbo. He's the retread who hasn't been the team's starter besides the game against Arizona, and he's stuck between the expected starter (Chris Carson) and highly-touted rookie (Rashaad Penny). When Carson was out for a week, the team leaned on Davis and he shined. The following […]

Rashaad Penny Is A Decent Deep-League Play

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny is getting the full range of options in the NFL so far. He struggled as the second-stringer at the start of the season, he struggled as the starter for a game, he was relegated to third-string and given no chances in a game, and then he was given […]

Chris Carson Could Be A Good Play In Week 8

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson looks like he has a dream matchup on the surface this week, but there are some risks associated with that. First, Seattle's coaching staff seems dedicated to using a platoon of 2-3 running backs to handle the carries. Carson has lost carries to both Mike Davis and Rashaad Penny, […]

Melvin Ingram Helps LA Win In England

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Melvin Ingram was a force on Sunday against the Titans. Not only did he rack up five tackles and a sack, but he also tipped a Marcus Mariota pass in the red zone that was hauled in by linebacker Denzel Perryman. That was Mariota's first ever turnover in the red […]

Michael Badgley Hits Easy Kicks

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley was perfect again on Sunday. Badgley wasn't tasked with anything too difficult as he knocked through a pair of short field goals and a couple extra points, but in a game that ended up being decided by a single point, those kicks were critical. Most importantly, he stayed perfect […]

Keenan Allen Hauls In Five More Passes, No TDs

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen put on another catching clinic on Sunday as he caught all five passes thrown his way, racked up 72 yards, and still didn't find the end zone a single time.

Mike Williams Snags Huge Touchdown

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams finally got his number pulled on a big pass play and hauled in a 55-yard touchdown reception on Sunday. Williams got a slight bump up in the rotation by starting running back Melvin Gordon being out, but he still only caught the one ball on the day. He […]

Austin Ekeler Struggles In Lead Role

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler got the nod after normal starter Melvin Gordon couldn't go against the Titans on Sunday, but he wasn't able to get much done. Ekeler carried the ball 12 times for 42 yards and hauled in five passes for 26 yards with no scores. Though he's usually electrifying, Ekeler […]
