Joshua Palmer A Strong Option In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer garnered 12 targets in Week 6 and could see similar volume in a Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Chargers will be without top wideouts Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle), so Palmer will be operating as the team's clear WR1. Austin Ekeler will likely […]

Austin Ekeler Will Look To Stay Hot In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler finished as the fantasy RB3 or better in four consecutive weeks before the team's Week 8 bye. This week, Ekeler will take the field against the Atlanta Falcons, who have allowed over 23 PPR fantasy points per game to the running back position. With Keenan Allen (hamstring) and […]

Justin Herbert A QB1 Against Atlanta

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will return from a Week 8 bye to face off against the Atlanta Falcons. The Chargers will be without wide receivers Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle), but the tandem of Austin Ekeler, Gerald Everett, and Joshua Palmer should be enough for Herbert to get the job done […]

Panthers Defense Gives Up 30 Points In Loss

The Carolina Panthers defense recorded two interceptions and two sacks but surrendered 30 points to the Atlanta Falcons offense in a Week 8 loss. Fantasy managers who started the Carolina DST avoided negative points, but this was still a disappointing showing after the team allowed just three points to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week […]

Eddy Pineiro Costs Panthers Divisional Win In Week 8

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro connected on two of his three field goal attempts as well as two of his three extra point tries in a 37-34 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. DJ Moore was penalized for removing his helmet after a game-tying touchdown, forcing Pineiro to kick a 48-yard extra point that he ultimately […]

Tommy Tremble Has Two Receptions In Week 8

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble finished with two receptions for 17 yards on four targets in an overtime loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Tremble was once again more productive than teammate Ian Thomas, who was held to just one catch for two yards on Sunday. He is clearly being deployed as the TE1 in […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. Catches Five Passes In Week 8

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. caught five of his six targets for 26 yards in an overtime loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Shenault was the third-most targeted player on the Panthers' offense and averaged just 5.2 yards per catch, but this usage is still encouraging to see. Fantasy managers shouldn't be looking to […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. Posts Career-Highs In Targets And Yards

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. finished with four receptions for 87 yards on nine targets in a Week 8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. This was a career game for Marshall, who had never tallied more than six targets or 48 yards before Sunday. With Robbie Anderson and Christian McCaffrey recently traded, the […]

DJ Moore Goes Off For 152 Yards And A Touchdown

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore hauled in six of his 11 targets for 152 yards and a touchdown in a Week 8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

D'Onta Foreman Scores Three Times In Week 8

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman handled 26 carries for 118 yards and three touchdowns in an overtime loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Foreman took full advantage of his first start of the season with Chuba Hubbard (ankle) sidelined. With PJ Walker under center, Carolina's offense has been much improved, giving Foreman more upside than […]

PJ Walker Throws For 317 Yards In Narrow Loss

Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker completed 19 of 36 pass attempts for 317 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in a 37-34 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Walker added 20 yards rushing on one carry. His one score came on a beautiful 62-yard pass to wide receiver DJ Moore that tied the game late in […]

Is Russell Wilson Playing? Should I Start Russell Wilson In Week 8?

The Denver Broncos started third-year quarterback Brett Rypien in Week 7 as Russell Wilson was sidelined with a hamstring injury. With the team's Week 9 bye looming, it seemed possible, if not likely, that Wilson would remain inactive for a Week 8 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Fantasy managers of any offensive pieces in Denver […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Drawing Trade Interest

The San Francisco 49ers are reportedly receiving calls inquiring about the availability of running back Jeff Wilson Jr. The 49ers acquired superstar Christian McCaffrey ahead of Week 7, and with Elijah Mitchell (knee) expected to return within the next few weeks, Wilson is likely to be the odd man out in San Francisco. Wilson has […]

Panthers Defense A Decent Week 8 Option

The Carolina Panthers' defense limited the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to just three points last week and will have the opportunity to step up in a divisional matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8. Atlanta is averaging over 23 points per game but is seeing much of its offensive production come on the ground. Carolina […]

Eddy Pineiro Not A Strong Option In Week 8

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro will take the field on Sunday for a Week 8 bout with the Atlanta Falcons. Pineiro has converted on all but one of his field goal attempts this season but has not been a consistent fantasy producer due to a low volume of kicks. The Panthers should be able to […]

Tommy Tremble Will Look To Capitalize In Solid Matchup

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble has seemingly surpassed Ian Thomas on the team's depth chart and will hope to become more involved in a Week 8 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Tremble hauled in his only target for a 29-yard score last week and could produce again on Sunday as Atlanta has allowed the […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. Not On The Fantasy Radar

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. played on 86 percent of offensive snaps last week in the team's first contest without Christian McCaffrey and Robbie Anderson. He has a strong case to be Carolina's WR2 moving forward and will have a great opportunity to prove himself against a struggling Atlanta Falcons secondary in Week […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. Will Suit Up In Week 8

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. will not carry an injury designation into the weekend after being limited in practice this week with a hamstring injury. Shenault returned to the lineup in Week 7 after missing three consecutive games but played on just two offensive snaps. He could have an expanded role going forward […]

DJ Moore Set Up For Success In Week 8

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore finally came through for fantasy purposes, finishing as the WR9 in PPR scoring last week. He will look to build on his chemistry with quarterback PJ Walker in an excellent Week 8 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons have allowed the most PPR fantasy points to wide receivers […]

D'Onta Foreman In Play For Week 8

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman is in line to start and see the bulk of touches out of the backfield against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8. In the team's first game without Christian McCaffrey, Foreman was given 17 total opportunities and totaled 145 yards. The Panthers will also be missing Chuba Hubbard (ankle) […]

PJ Walker A Low-End QB2 In Soft Matchup

Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker is set to start for a second consecutive game, this time against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8. Walker threw for two touchdown passes last week and should be able to find success facing an Atlanta defense that is allowing the third-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Even […]

Fantasy Football Trade Targets - Buy/Sell For Week 8

We are now almost halfway to the fantasy championship. It's been a season full of twists and turns, and as always, a shocking amount of unpredictability.

Chargers Defense Allows 37 Points To Seahawks

The Los Angeles Chargers defense surrendered 37 points in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 7. The Chargers did manage two sacks, one interception, and a fumble recovery, but were once again destroyed on the ground as Seattle totaled 214 rushing yards. With a Week 8 bye on tap, the Los Angeles DST […]

Taylor Bertolet Connects On Three Extra Points In Week 7

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Taylor Bertolet was successful on all three of his extra-point tries in the team's Week 7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Bertolet did not attempt a single field goal as he replaced Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) in the starting lineup for the second time this season. The Chargers have a bye in […]

DeAndre Carter Posts 37 Yards On Seven Targets

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DeAndre Carter tallied three receptions for 37 yards on seven targets in the team's Week 7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Carter was handed an expanded role in this one as Joshua Palmer (concussion) was inactive and Keenan Allen sat the second half on a snap count. Still, he was […]

Gerald Everett Totals 63 Yards In Week 7 Loss

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett finished with five receptions for 63 yards on nine targets in the team's Week 7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Everett remained heavily involved as Keenan Allen re-entered the lineup for the first half on a snap count. The Chargers get a bye in Week 8, but will […]

Austin Ekeler Extends Touchdown Streak To Four Games

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler continued his stretch of dominance in a Week 7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, handling nine carries for 31 yards and a touchdown while hauling in all 12 of his targets for 96 yards and a score. This is the third multi-touchdown performance for Ekeler in the last […]

Justin Herbert Throws Two Touchdowns In Week 7 Loss

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert completed 33 of his 51 pass attempts for 293 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in a 37-23 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Herbert added 22 yards rushing on three carries. This was the second consecutive game in which the third-year signal-caller attempted over 50 passes, and this trend […]

Chuba Hubbard Suffers Minor Ankle Sprain In Week 7

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle in the fourth quarter of the team's Week 7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and did not return. Fortunately, the sprain is believed to be minor and the second-year back "could have come back in if needed", but D'Onta Foreman was able to […]
