Welcome to Week 7 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. As the year goes on, the PPGA metric will become more and more predictive. Another important data point to be aware of is the injury report.

It happens every year in fantasy when there comes a time when the injuries begin to mount, causing undervalued players to emerge.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 7) - Targets and Avoids

A near total survivor doomsday. Three of the top four most selected teams on average in pools, Bucs, Packers, Niners, all went down. The top selected team in most pools, the Rams, were a half away from knocking many contests to less than 100 entrants. This year keeps getting worse and worse for favorites. Strategies... Read More

Quarterback Starts/Sits for Week 7 - QB vs. Pass Rush Matchups for Lineup Decisions

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons caught the San Francisco 49ers... Read More

Saints vs. Cardinals Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Kyler Murray, Alvin Kamara, James Conner, Chris Olave, Zach Ertz, DeAndre Hopkins

Last week was wild. The NFL kept us on our toes with plenty of large upsets that resulted in some surprising fantasy stars.

Week 7 IDP Start Em, Sit Em - Streamers and Fades for Fantasy Football Defensive Players

According to many, this week is yet another “Bye-mageddon” for fantasy managers, and it’s hard to argue against that point. With the Bills, Rams, Vikings, and Eagles all on sabbatical, there is no doubt fantasy managers are losing a ton of talent to vacation this week. That means every league will be without the two...

Booms and Busts: Week 6 Fantasy Football Starts and Sits

Hello, fantasy football friends! Ok, wow...that's a lot of F's. Instead of F's, let's focus on another letter in Week 6...the letter B. B as in Bye weeks.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 6) - Targets and Avoids

Week 5 saw some upsets, marginal, but it could have been a lot worse. The Jaguars and Packers lost, but what would have been left of survivor pools had the Bucs, Vikings, and Chiefs lost?

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We had a pretty solid Week 5, getting six of the top 10 defenses correct including having the top three defenses all finish in the top four on the week. Also, two defenses who finished in the top 10 were ranked inside the top 14, which made them playable in 12-team leagues, so that's a... Read More

These bye-week losses are even more painful... Read More

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Commanders vs Bears Start 'Em Sit 'Em: Carson Wentz, David Montgomery, Curtis Samuel, Darnell Mooney, Brian Robinson Jr.

Things I’d rather watch over Thursday Night's game in Week 5: wet paint, dry paint, Sharknado 3D, Thor: The Dark World, and Nathan Peterman vs. Josh Rosen playing Beer Pong. Outside of that, I can pull a Gordon Ramsey on Russell Wilson’s cooking, but there’s no need to beat a dead horse (Broncos pun intended).... Read More

Chiefs vs Raiders Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Darren Waller, Isiah Pacheco, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Derek Carr, Marquez Valdes-Scantling

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 5

Welcome to Week 5 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. As the year goes on, the PPGA metric will become more and more predictive.
