Indianapolis Colts 2020 Fantasy Outlook

2019 ended up being a transition year for the Indianapolis Colts after the bombshell retirement of QB Andrew Luck right before the campaign began.

New York Giants 2020 Fantasy Outlook

2019 was just another year filled with struggles for those New York Football Giants.

Though the rookie QB played an […]

Engel's Angles: Favorite Fantasy Draft Targets by Round

Why Saquon Barkley Should Be the 1.01 Pick

This might come off as crazy but hear me out.

They officially transitioned from the face […]

The Fantasy Fallacy of Running Back Committees

Some of the scariest words a fantasy owner can hear is that their running back is now part of a committee (RBBC).
