Travis Kelce Finds End Zone In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught four passes for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Rams. He was targeted a team-high eight times. Kelce has now caught 12 touchdowns this season, but this game also saw him finish with his fewest yards since Week 5. But if 57 yards […]


Isiah Pacheco Dominates Backfield Touches In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Isiah Pacheco had 22 of the team's 30 carries in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Rams, finishing with 69 rushing yards and a touchdown. He also had a 17-yard reception. Pacheco has taken clear control of this Kansas City backfield over the last few games, and it's clear […]


Patrick Mahomes Solid Against Rams

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes didn't have his best showing on Sunday against the Rams, but even Mahomes when he's not at his best is pretty good. He was 27-for-42 for 320 yards in the win, throwing a touchdown on the first drive, but then failing to find the end zone again. He was […]


Nico Collins Targeted Nine Times Against Miami

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins led the team in targets in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins, as quarterback Kyle Allen looked his direction nine times. Collins ended up catching six of those for 44 yards. It wasn't a great showing, largely because the Texans offense couldn't move the ball in the first half. […]


Brandin Cooks Catches Five Passes Against Miami

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks was quiet in the first half but ended up posting a solid stat line in Sunday's loss to Miami, catching all five of his targets for 59 yards. Considering how bad Houston's offense looked early in this one, it's a decent showing for Cooks, who should be viewed as […]


Jordan Akins Catches Touchdown Against Miami

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins caught five passes for a team-high 61 yards, including the only receiving touchdown of the contest for the Texans. Akins has had some solid showings this year, but he's also had some games where he was a complete non-factor, and there's really been no rhyme or reason to which […]


Dameon Pierce Shut Down Again

For the second week in a row, Houston Texans rookie running back Dameon Pierce failed to make much of an impact. He carried the ball just five times, finishing with eight yards. He also added three catches for another eight yards. Dare Ogunbowale ended up with the team's lone rushing touchdown. This is now two […]


Kyle Allen Picked Off Twice Against Dolphins

Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen was 26-for-39 in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, throwing for 215 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Allen managed a couple of good drives in the second half to boost his overall numbers, but his first start for Houston was largely disappointing, and the 215 yards don't really tell the […]


Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7 Include Marvin Bagley, Derrick White, Deni Avdija, Immanuel Quickley

Welcome back to RotoBaller's weekly fantasy basketball waiver wire column and schedule breakdown. How's this season going for you? Need some help with your team? Let's get you some! These recommendations are mainly for 9-cat leagues, but if you play in another format, there's a good chance that the information here can still help you. […]


Should I Start the Dolphins DST in Week 12 Against The Texans? Fantasy Football Outlook

The Miami Dolphins are set to host a Houston Texans team on Sunday that will be starting a new quarterback, as Davis Mills has been benched for Kyle Allen. With Houston facing uncertainty under center, fantasy managers will likely have an increased interest in the Dolphins defense this week. So, should we start the Dolphins […]


Harrison Butker Has Strong Upside In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is having arguably the worst season of his NFL career, making just 72.7% of his field goal attempts. But he looked sharp last week, going 3-for-3 on field goals and 3-for-3 on extra points in a win over the Chargers. The nature of this Chiefs offense puts Butker in […]


Travis Kelce Remains Top Fantasy Tight End Play In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught three touchdowns last week against the Chargers, bringing his total this season to 11, which has already tied his career high. After personnel changes in the offseason, Kelce is now the unquestioned top option in this Chiefs offense, and he's averaging 9.4 targets per game. Kelce is […]


Isiah Pacheco Has Low-End RB2 Appeal For Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs running Isiah Pacheco has taken the reins of the team's backfield, and last week produced the first 100-yard rushing game for the team all season. He now has 189 yards over the last two games. But he also has zero targets over that time and the Chiefs offense is notorious for how […]


Patrick Mahomes Looks To Keep Rolling Against Rams

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has thrown for seven touchdowns in the past two games plus has five games in a row of over 300 passing yards. In Week 12, he'll look to keep that streak alive against the Rams. Mahomes has faced the Rams just once in his career, passing for 478 yards […]


Texans Defense Has Low Upside In Week 12

The Houston Texans defense should be low on the fantasy radar heading into Week 12 against the Dolphins. Miami ranks sixth in the NFL in scoring offense this season and while pass defense has been a positive for the Texans this year, the team has also had the advantage of some good matchups to help […]


Ka'imi Fairbairn Remains A Low-Upside Fantasy Option

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn is in the midst of the most accurate season of his career, as he's made 90% of his field goals and 100% of his extra points this year. But he ranks just 15th in fantasy scoring at the kicker position this season because of a lack of opportunities due to […]


Nico Collins Has Deep-League Upside In Week 12

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has seemingly taken over the No. 1 wide receiver role from Brandin Cooks over the last couple of weeks. On Sunday against the Dolphins, we'll see if that continues even after the Texans make a change at quarterback, as Kyle Allen is starting over Davis Mills. The Dolphins rank […]


Brandin Cooks Hoping To Get Boost From QB Change

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks has seen his usage trend down this season. After back-to-back weeks with double-digit targets to start the season, Cooks hasn't had more than seven in a game yet, and he's had four catches or fewer in five consecutive games. But there's a little hope this week, as the team […]


Dameon Pierce Looks To Bounce Back

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce is coming off the worst game of his NFL career, as he was held to just eight rushing yards in a Week 11 loss to the Commanders. But considering Pierce had rushed for 80 or more yards in six of the past seven games before last week's disappointment, fantasy […]


Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 12: Top Free Agent Adds Include

Does your fantasy team need one final push to get you into the postseason, especially with fantasy trade deadlines past in a lot of leagues? Below, you'll find some wide receivers that you should be targeting on the fantasy football waiver wire ahead of Week 12. Not all of these waiver wire options are the […]


Kadarius Toney Injures Hamstring Against Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney exited Sunday night's game against the Chargers with a hamstring injury. He finished the game with no receptions. Toney was a popular waiver wire add since he was traded to KC, but it looks like his hamstring issues that plagued his time with the Giants have already popped […]


Skyy Moore Heavily Involved In Week 11

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore took advantage of the team's injuries at the position on Sunday night, finishing second on the team behind tight end Travis Kelce in both targets and receptions. Patrick Mahomes threw the ball Moore's way six times, with the rookie catching five of them for 63 yards. Keep an […]


Travis Kelce Hauls In Three Touchdowns

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught all three of quarterback Patrick Mahomes' touchdown passes on Sunday night against the Chargers, including the game-winner in the final minute of the contest. Overall, Kelce was targeted 10 times, catching six passes for 115 yards. At this point, there's not much to say about Kelce: he's […]


Isiah Pacheco Rushes For Over 100 Yards

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Isiah Pacheco had the best 100-plus yard rushing game of his NFL career on Sunday night against the Chargers, carrying the ball 15 times for 107 yards. He wasn't targeted in the passing game. Pacheco looks like he's firmly claimed the lead back role in KC, as Jerick McKinnon […]


Patrick Mahomes Throws Three Touchdowns In Week 11 Win

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was 20-for-39 for 329 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He also added 23 rushing yards. Mahomes had his worst game of the year from a yardage perspective in the first meeting of these teams, but he threw for almost 100 more yards […]


Nico Collins Targeted Seven Times In Loss

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins tied for the team lead in targets on Sunday, with quarterback Davis Mills looking his way seven times in the loss to the Commanders. He caught five of them for 48 yards. It looks like Collins has overtaken Brandin Cooks as the No. 1 receiver in Houston, but this […]


Brandin Cooks Leads Team In Receiving Yards In Week 11 Loss

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks caught a team-high 70 yards in Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders, but his low volume continues to be a concern. Cooks had just three receptions, and he now hasn't had more than four catches in a game since Week 4. Going forward, Cooks is a risky WR3/4 play […]


Dameon Pierce Shut Down By Commanders

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce was a non-factor in Houston's loss to the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Pierce entered the game with 90 or more rushing yards in five of the last six games, but he ended the day with a career-low eight yards on the ground. He also added nine receiving yards on […]


Davis Mills Picked Off Twice Against Washington

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills was 19-for-33 for 169 yards in Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders. He was picked off twice, but he did manage to add a rushing touchdown, finishing with 10 rushing yards on five carries. Mills has been a non-entity in the run game this season and there's no reason to […]


Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6 Include Tyus Jones, Shake Milton, Killian Hayes

Welcome back to RotoBaller's weekly fantasy basketball waiver wire column and schedule breakdown. How's this season going for you? Need some help with your team? Let's get you some! These recommendations are mainly for 9-cat leagues, but if you play in another format, there's a good chance that the information here can still help you. […]
