Lions Ready to Roar Back Without Matt Patricia

The Detroit Lions’ experimental attempt to become the NFC’s version of the New England Patriots is officially over before it ever really started. Well, to be fair, it did technically start. After the Lions hired Bob Quinn as the team’s general manager in January 2016, he began stockpiling former Patriots - mostly defensive players who […]

How to Lose With Class in Fantasy Football

We have all seen it before. The person in your league who gives up halfway through the season. They act like a petulant five-year old who does not get their way, taking their ball and going home. There are many reasons why someone may choose to cash it in early. Injuries have ruined their team. […]

Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

By this point in the season, your core team had better be set in stone because the waiver wire options keep getting thinner. It's still advisable to stash running backs whenever possible, as injuries continue to take their toll at the position. Some popular streamers like Brian Hill and Jordan Wilkins failed to deliver in […]

The Cut List (Week 13) - Time to Let Go?

For our Week 13 Cut List preamble, we are going to lament the absolutely mystifying chain of events that ended the Chargers/Bills game in Week 12. Down by 10 with 3:21 left on the clock and starting from his own 12-yard-line, Justin Herbert led yet another impressive late-game drive that included two fourth-down conversions--one of […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 13

Week 13 is the unluckiest week of the fantasy football season --- for those managers and teams who lose and do not end up making their league’s playoffs.

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 13

Thanks to a rash of COVID positives and close contacts, Week 12 was interesting from a fantasy perspective. There were some fantastic performances this Week.

Week 12 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Week 12 was a little frustrating for quarterbacks with Josh Allen, Justin Herbert and Kyler Murray all finishing outside the top-10.

Robert Tonyan returned to relevance […]
