Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 9... what an absolute cluster. The Buffalo Bills lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 9–6. The Broncos went and punched the Cowboys in the mouth and the Cowboys didn't even bother to put up a fight. It was quite the week so it only made sense that after a week of championing Greg Joseph and […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 10 Lightning Round

Week 9 brought all sorts of mayhem in the form of underperforming studs and some wild upsets.

Well, Week 8 was a doozy! I got only five of the top-10 defenses correct (based on FantasyPros scoring) with the Rams and Bengals both finishing one point below the cut-off.

Projecting the Titans Offense Without Derrick Henry

The initial shock of Derrick Henry's season-ending injury was a stinging slap to the face of the Titans fanbase right after a fourth straight victory that has them sitting as the top seed in the AFC.
