Marquez Valdes-Scantling Held Without A Catch

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling had a quiet day against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. The 25-year-old was targeted twice but failed to haul in any passes as his team's offense struggled as a whole. Valdes-Scantling saw just two targets for the second consecutive game and has been a bust the […]

Davante Adams Targeted 11 Times In Week 9 Loss

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams was targeted 11 times in his Week 9 return to the field. He was able to catch seven of them, but only recorded 41 yards. His longest completion in the game was for nine yards, as he and Rodgers struggled to get going. The offensive line couldn't give […]

Jamaal Williams Catches All Six Targets

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams enjoyed a solid day in an otherwise poor showing by his team's offense. Williams had just two carries for 10 yards but caught all six of his targets for 39 yards and a touchdown. That makes four straight games with a touchdown catch for the 24-year-old. He was […]

Aaron Jones Stifled In Week 9 Loss

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones was quiet in his team's 26-11 Week 9 loss. Coming off one of his better games of the year, the 24-year-old tallied only eight carries for 30 yards and caught just one of four targets for a loss of a yard. Jones likely would have been more involved […]

Aaron Rodgers Bamboozled By Chargers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was shut down by the Los Angeles Chargers Defense in a 26-11 Week 9 loss. Rodgers completed just 23 of 35 passes for 161 yards and a touchdown. The Packers offensive line didn't give the veteran QB much time to look downfield, as evidenced by his 4.6 yards per […]

Packers Defense A Decent Option For Week 9

The Green Bay Packers Defense will face off against Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. Rivers has only been sacked 14 times in eight games but has thrown seven interceptions this year, tied for 20th in the NFL. The Packer come into Week 9 with 20 sacks, 15th in the NFL, […]

Mason Crosby A Solid Start In Week 9

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had a strong first half of the year. The 35-year-old made at least two field goals or two extra-points in seven of eight games. He's 11 of 12 on field goals and has made all 26 extra-points this year. Playing on a Packers team that scores 26.9 points per […]

Jimmy Graham A Risky Play In Week 9

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham gets a tough matchup on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 32-year-old has 21 catches for 234 yards and three touchdowns on the season and has been a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option so far. Expect that trend to continue against the Chargers, who rank 11th in the NFL […]

Geronimo Allison Can't Be Trusted Against Chargers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison will face off against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. There should be opportunities for the 25-year-old, especially if fellow receiver Davante Adams (toe), is healthy and shadowed by elite Chargers' corner Casey Hayward. Much like Marquez Valdez-Scantling, Allison is dependent on a touchdown to return fantasy […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling A Low-End Flex In Week 9

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) practiced fully on Friday and is good to go for Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers. It's been an up-and-down year for the 25-year-old, who has posted as many as six catches in Week 3 and as few as one in Week 8. Still, of […]

Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones Removed From Final Injury Report

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) and running back Aaron Jones (shoulder) were both full participants in Friday's practice. Neither of their injuries appeared to be serious-though it's nice to see both players removed from the final injury report. Rodgers is a QB1 but could have added upside if wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) […]

Jamaal Williams A Good Option In Week 9

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has a great matchup ahead of him in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Since Week 6, Williams' rushing attempts have been a bit volatile, tallying a season-high 14 against the Lions but a season-low three against Oakland the following week. Fortunately for Williams, he's seen at […]

Aaron Jones Is A Must-Start Against Chargers

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday and reportedly was seen on the practice field on Thursday. Jones injured the shoulder during the game against Kansas City but was able to return, which bodes well for his Week 9 status. The 24-year-old Jones is coming off one of […]

Aaron Rodgers Limited On Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday, though it doesn't sound like anything too serious. Expect the 35-year-old to play in Week 9. Rodgers has thrown for at least 300 yards and three touchdowns in his last two games, as he's seemingly found his stride. He'll face the Los Angeles […]

Seahawks Defense Recovers Two Fumbles Against Atlanta

The Seattle Seahawks Defense tallied two sacks, two recovered fumbles, and an interception against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8. The Seahawks surrendered some garbage time points in this one, hurting their fantasy output. Still, it's a defense that has posted at least four sacks twice and has created at least three turnovers in three […]

Jason Myers Has Good Day In Week 8 Win

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers had a good fantasy day against the Atlanta Falcons. The 28-year-old hit two field goals, both from at least 40 yards out and nailed three extra points. Myers has now made at least two field goals and two extra points in three straight games. The fifth-year veteran is now 10-for-13 […]

Luke Willson Catches One Pass In Week 8

Seattle Seahawks tight end Luke Willson caught just one pass for seven yards in Week 8. Willson was out-targeted two to one by fellow tight end Jacob Hollister, who caught both of his targets for 18 yards. The hope was that Willson could reignite his chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson. That hasn't been the case […]

David Moore Quiet In Week 8 Win

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore was targeted four times but only hauled in one pass for 23 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8. Four targets ties a season-high for the 24-year-old-and he's only produced one touchdown so far. On a run-heavy team with Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf ahead of him in […]

D.K. Metcalf Catches Two Touchdowns Against Falcons

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf caught three of five targets for 13 yards and two touchdowns against the Atlanta Falcons. The rookie receiver was a real touchdown magnet, as quarterback Russell Wilson looked his way a couple of times in the red-zone. The 6'3" Metcalf proved he could be a real asset at the […]

Tyler Lockett Posts 100 Receiving Yards Against Atlanta

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught all six of his targets for 100 yards in his team's Week 8 win over the Atlanta Falcons. His day included a nifty, over-the-shoulder grab late in the second quarter as the Seahawks were driving downfield. It's the second time that Lockett has tallied at least 100 yards […]

Rashaad Penny Picks Up 55 Rushing Yards In Week 8 Win

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny carried the ball eight times for 55 rushing yards in his team's 27-20 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The carries were Penny's most since Week 2 as the Seahawks showcased him for a potential trade. The 23-year-old has averaged at least six yards per carry in two games this […]

Chris Carson Powers For 90 Yards And A Touchdown

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson carried the ball 20 times for 90 yards and punched in a goal-line touchdown against the Atlanta Falcons. Carson ran like someone stole his lunch money, often bouncing off tackles and dragging defenders with him. It was his fifth game this year tallying at least four yards per carry […]

Russell Wilson Throws Two Touchdowns In Week 8

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson threw two touchdowns but only passed for 182 yards in his team's Week 8 win. There wasn't a whole lot for Wilson to do in this one after the first half, as the Seahawks jumped out to a 24-0 lead at the break. The run-heavy game script in the second […]

Saints Defense Quiet In Week 8

The New Orleans Saints Defense was excellent, just not for fantasy purposes. The team allowed nine points to the Arizona Cardinals and stalled most of their offensive drives. Unfortunately, they only posted three sacks and weren't able to generate any turnovers. New Orleans has playmakers on the defensive side of the ball and still should […]

Wil Lutz Makes A Field Goal and Four Extra Points in Win

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz made a field goal from 26 yards out, missed one from 47 yards and made four extra points in the Saints' Week 8 win. That makes four total misses on the year for Lutz, who only missed two kicks all of last year. Lutz has had a couple of […]

Josh Hill Quiet Against Cardinals

New Orleans Saints tight end Josh Hill didn't do much for fantasy purposes in Week 8. He caught three of a season-high five targets for 39 yards from returning starter Drew Brees. Hill caught a touchdown last week filling in for Jared Cook (ankle) though he couldn't duplicate the feat this week. The Saints head […]

Ted Ginn A Bust In Week 8

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn was quiet in his team's 31-9 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. The 34-year-old wideout caught both of his targets for 42 yards. It was nice to see Ginn targeted downfield though he was a bit of a bust in this one. Fortunately for him, starter Drew Brees is […]

Taysom Hill Catches Touchdown Against Arizona

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill showed off his versatility against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. Hill didn't drop back to pass in the game but caught all three of his targets for 63 yards and a touchdown. The 29-year-old ran a beautiful wheel route down the sideline and caught a 36-yard pass from […]

Michael Thomas Stays Hot Against Arizona

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas picked up right where he left off with quarterback Drew Brees in Week 8. Thomas caught all 11 targets for 112 yards and a touchdown. The 26-year-old receiver beat Pro Bowl corner Patrick Peterson's coverage several times in this one and broke Peterson's tackle to get into the […]

Latavius Murray Gashes Cardinals For 157 Yards and Two Touchdowns

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray had an excellent day against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. The seventh-year veteran carried the ball 24 times for 102 yards, hauled in nine of 12 targets for 55 yards and found the end zone twice. With their bye coming up in Week 9 and starter Alvin […]
