NFL Week 11 Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 NFL Teams Stand?

As we head into the fourth month of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better sense of who these 32 teams are. Injuries, inefficiencies, and mega-popstar distractions have impacted NFL teams in different ways through the league's first eight weeks. On the other hand, there have been some major positive surprises and […]


Zay Flowers - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Bengals vs. Ravens TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Joe Burrow, Joe Mixon, Tyler Boyd, Lamar Jackson, Keaton Mitchell, Gus Edwards, more

This is the Thursday Night Football game we have been waiting on for fantasy. We had to endure all of the Bears/Panthers, Steelers/Titans, Bears/Commanders, and 49ers/Giants debacles so we could have this masterpiece. Something to be thankful for a week before Thanksgiving is the Cincinnati Bengals visiting the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night. Just a […]


Chuba Hubbard - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Panthers vs. Bears TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Bryce Young, Chuba Hubbard, Adam Thielen, Miles Sanders, D.J. Moore, Cole Kmet, more

Welcome to the "Chicago Wins No Matter What Bowl" for Week 10 of NFL Thursday Night Football! The two teams, who pulled off a blockbuster trade that essentially became DJ Moore and a bunch of picks for Bryce Young will face each other on Thursday night with both seasons headed down the toilet. However, the […]


NFL Week 9 Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 NFL Teams Stand?

As we head into the third month of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better sense of who these 32 teams are. Injuries, inefficiencies, and mega-popstar distractions have impacted NFL teams in different ways through the league's first eight weeks. On the other hand, there have been some major positive surprises and […]


Will Levis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Titans vs. Steelers TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Derrick Henry, Kenny Pickett, Will Levis, Tyjae Spears, DeAndre Hopkins, Jaylen Warren

If you weren't already excited enough about a Week 9 matchup between the under-achieving Pittsburgh Steelers and the identity-seeking Tennessee Titans for Thursday night football, would some Kenny Pickett vs. Will Levis help get you there? In what was originally shaping up to be the most Thursday Night Football-ish game ever, we will at least […]


Josh Allen - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Buccaneers vs. Bills TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, Rachaad White, James Cook, Gabe Davis, Dalton Kincaid, more

Both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Buffalo Bills enter Thursday Night Football coming off disappointing losses last week. Neither team was able to make the explosive offensive plays in their respective matchups and will look to right the ship as they meet in Buffalo tonight. Both teams also enter Week 8 just one game […]

NFL Week 7 Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 NFL Teams Stand?

As we head into the second month of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better sense of who these 32 teams are.

NFL Week 6 Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 NFL Teams Stand?

As we head into the second month of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better sense of who these 32 teams are. Injuries, inefficiencies, and mega-popstar distractions have impacted NFL teams in different ways through the league's first five weeks. On the other hand, there have been some major positive surprises and […]


Travis Etienne Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Jaguars vs. Saints TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Trevor Lawrence, Travis Etienne, Evan Engram, Christian Kirk, Calvin Ridley, Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave, more

Thursday Night Football, Week 7 edition, features the Jacksonville Jaguars visiting the New Orleans Saints, which means we might be getting a matchup between the best teams of the AFC South and the NFC South. Or we might not. Who can really say with these two mediocre divisions which feature just one team among their […]


Patrick Mahomes - Fantasy Football Rankings, DFS Lineup Picks, NFL Injury News

Broncos vs. Chiefs TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Travis Kelce, Isiah Pacheco, Jaleel McLaughlin, Rashee Rice, Russell Wilson, Jerry Jeudy, more

Are we really about to have another Thursday Night Football game with the Kansas City Chiefs where we have to worry about Travis Kelce missing the game? Fantasy managers might finally abandon the night altogether if that happens after Kelce missed the season opener with a knee injury, but it does look like the first-round […]

NFL Week 5 Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 NFL Teams Stand?

As we head into the second month of the NFL season, we are starting to get a better sense of who these 32 teams are. Injuries, inefficiencies, and mega pop-star distractions have impacted NFL teams in different ways through the league's first four weeks. On the other hand, there have been some major positive surprises […]


Justin Fields - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Bears vs. Commanders TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Justin Fields, D.J. Moore, Khalil Herbert, Cole Kmet, Sam Howell, Brian Robinson, more

For those who love to hate-watch Thursday Night Football, this matchup with the Chicago Bears visiting the Washington Commanders was picked especially for you! Start with two lackluster teams, and add in a lack of true attractive fantasy options, and you have a recipe for uninterested fans. This is the NFL betting degenerate game of […]


Amon-Ra St. Brown - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Lions vs. Packers TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Jared Goff, Sam LaPorta, Jordan Love, Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Romeo Doubs, Luke Musgrave

Our string of two straight Thursday Night Football bangers came to an end last week when the San Francisco 49ers trampled all over the New York Giants, so we now turn our attention to an NFC North clash between the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers. Both of these teams have retooled in the […]


Brock Purdy - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Giants vs. 49ers TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Daniel Jones, Matt Brieda, Darren Waller, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, Brock Purdy

Our string of two straight Thursday Night Football bangers likely comes to an end this week when the injury-plagued New York Giants visit the San Franciso 49ers. Last week's Vikings-Eagles matchup turned into a fantasy bonanza, and while that might be the case for the 49ers in Week 3, it's hard to make a case […]


Jalen Hurts - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, Draft Sleepers

Vikings vs. Eagles TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Justin Jefferson, Alexander Mattison, T.J. Hockenson, Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, Devonta Smith, Kenneth Gainwell, D'Andre Swift

Could it possibly be that we have two straight intriguing games for Thursday Night Football to start the season? The NFL has really tried to do a better job of showcasing their best teams in this primetime spot in 2023. After so many years of horrific Titans-Jaguars debacles, it's not until October 5 when the […]


T.J. Hockenson - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Path to Overall Fantasy Football TE1: T.J. Hockenson In The Best Spot Of His Career

Two years before the Atlanta Falcons made headlines by selecting a certain tight end number four overall in the 2021 draft, the Detroit Lions made a similarly bold move when they selected T.J. Hockenson out of Iowa at number eight overall. Fast forward four seasons and Hockenson is now a member of the Minnesota Vikings […]


Patrick Mahomes - Fantasy Football Rankings, DFS Lineup Picks, NFL Injury News

Lions vs. Chiefs Start 'Em, Sit 'Em - Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Isiah Pacheco, Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs

We know that the eye-gouging matchups are coming for Thursday Night Football, but for one glorious NFL opening night, we are in for a treat. The Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs host the upstart Detroit Lions in a matchup of two of the league's top projected offenses. Let's remember and cherish this beautiful pairing […]


Tank Bigsby - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Tank Bigsby Has An Expanded Role, Should I Draft Bigsby For Fantasy Football?

Ever since Tank Bigsby was drafted with the 25th pick in the third round by the Jacksonville Jaguars, questions have emerged about his role in this emerging offense. At Auburn in 2022, Bigsby was a do-it-all back with 179 rush attempts, 30 receptions, and 10 total touchdowns. In Jacksonville, however, he faces tough competition with […]
