Lions Defense Far From Fantasy Radar

The Detroit Lions defense has proven to be one of the worst units in the league through seven weeks of the regular season, so a matchup with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle spells bad news. Detroit's defense/special teams unit hasn't been playable all year long, so Week 8 is just more of the same. Even […]

Austin Hooper Has Low Ceiling In Week 8

Tennessee Titans tight end Austin Hooper is not a great fantasy play in Week 8, even after having his best game of the season against the Indianapolis Colts last week. Houston is just a neutral matchup for tight ends, and with Ryan Tannehill (ankle) banged up, this will likely be a run-heavy and almost run-only […]

Titans Defense A Strong Week 8 Streamer

The Tennessee Titans defense picked off Colts quarterback Matt Ryan twice last week, returning one for a touchdown, and could be in line for another strong game against Houston. The Titans pass rush is coming alive and its secondary is starting to settle in. Ultimately, the positive outlook is based on a poor and ineffective […]

Randy Bullock Not A Strong Option In Week 8

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock has delivered two solid fantasy performances in 2022, but with a projected point total of just 40.5 in this Titans-Texans contest, it's tough to project a high-upside week for the veteran kicker. Bullock could deliver if the Titans are stalled in the red zone a few times, but this game […]

Robert Woods Has Low Floor Versus Texans

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Robert Woods has only had one fantasy-friendly performance thanks to grabbing a touchdown reception, and that appears to be his only path to fantasy relevance in Week 8. Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is banged up and since Houston allows the most rushing yards per game, this should be a Derrick Henry monster-touch […]

Derrick Henry Has Overall RB1 Ceiling

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is poised for a huge day in his first meeting with the AFC South-rival Houston Texans. In his last three games against Houston, Henry has rushed for 673 yards and seven touchdowns, averaging just over 7.6 yards per carry. In 2022, Houston has allowed the most rushing yards per […]

Should I Pickup Tyler Allgeier For Week 8 Fantasy Football? Waiver Wire Outlook

Should I Pickup D'Onta Foreman For Fantasy Football Week 8? Waiver Wire Outlook

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman is a trending name in fantasy football after a stellar performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Is P.J. Walker A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 8? Waiver Wire Outlook

Carolina Panthers quarterback P.J. Walker has started the last two games for the team since Baker Mayfield (ankle) has been out, and interim head coach Steve Wilks said Walker will remain the starter for Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Should I Pickup Sam Ehlinger For Fantasy Football Week 8? Waiver Wire Outlook

There's been a quarterback change for the Indianapolis Colts after Matt Ryan's disastrous start to the 2022 NFL season.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger has been promoted to the starting quarterback after veteran quarterback Matt Ryan's sluggish start to the season.

Russell Wilson Could Return In Week 8

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson (hamstring) could return in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars after head coach Nathaniel Hackett said he's still day-to-day, but trending in the right direction.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Has Good Chance To Face Dolphins

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was knocked out of the Week 7 loss to the Dallas Cowboys early with suspicion of a concussion. St. Brown remains in concussion protocol, but he has been cleared of having a concussion. Lions' head coach Dan Campbell said St. Brown has a good chance to play against […]

Mike Boone Expected To Miss A Few Weeks

Denver Broncos running back Mike Boone (ankle) will miss a few weeks after suffering an injury in the loss to the New York Jets.

PJ Walker To Start Against Falcons

He completed 16-of-22 passing attempts for 177 yards and two touchdowns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and has earned at least one more start. Baker Mayfield (ankle) and Sam Darnold (ankle) could both be healthy enough to […]

Matt Ryan Injured, Benched For Rest Of Season

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan (shoulder) will not play next week against the Washington Commanders, and Frank Reich said Sam Ehlinger would have started this week regardless of the injury. Ehlinger is expected to be the Colts' starter for the rest of the 2022 season after a disappointing start to the season by Matt Ryan. […]

Michael Badgley Makes Both Field-Goal Attempts

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley connected on field goal attempts of 53 and 40 yards, so he'll likely hang on to the Lions' place-kicking job after some doubt that would happen. However, the Lions' offense has failed to score touchdowns in each of its last two games, so Badgley's ceiling might not be high if […]

Josh Reynolds Held To One Catch In Loss

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught just one of his two targets for eight yards in the 24-6 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. With Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) knocked out of the game early in the first quarter, Kalif Raymond was the wideout who stepped up, and not Reynolds. Reynolds will still be a […]

It was a nice fantasy performance considering the Lions failed to score a touchdown for the second straight game. Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) was knocked out of the game early, so Raymond […]
