The hard part is over. Now, it's up to the fantasy football gods. The grind you underwent to clinch a spot in the fantasy championship proved to be well worth the time. One more week of managerial decisions could lead to a trophy, but a bit of bad luck could make it all for naught. […]

These games may not hold the same matchup appeal as the Turkey Day contests did, but you still want to know which running backs to target in the […]

Last chance to bring home the fantasy bacon for most of us — time to get serious. Any teams still standing are more important to me than any Christmas gifts at the mall. It's funny because you'd think teams playing for the championship would imply stacked rosters on both sides, when it's far from the […]

This is it; what we’ve all played for. It’s time to win your fantasy football championship. No other position grants fantasy managers the positional advantage that the tight end position can offer. Last week, Harold Fannin Jr (19.5), Juwan Johnson (16.9), and Chig Okonkwo (16.4) were productive enough to be considered equal to the bottom […]

Through all the mock drafts, the questionable trades, and late nights working the waiver wire, it all comes down to one final matchup. Whether Puka Nacua (46.5) punched your ticket to the championship game or you were in the RotoBaller Discord listening to me pound the drum for Parker Washington (26.5), fantasy heroes come in […]

Congratulations on making it this far. We aren’t done yet. With fantasy championships in the balance this week, fantasy managers have less room for error than ever before. Last week, Ashton Jeanty rewarded owners for keeping the faith with a 31.8-point performance against the Houston Texans. Meanwhile, Kenneth Gainwell has his fifth 16-plus point performance […]

The holidays are here, and if you're like me, you probably waited until the last minute to start cleaning and running errands before the in-laws show up. Fantasy football can feel the same way in December. You didn't mean to wait until the last minute, but now you're struggling with which kicker to start. The […]

These early games mean fantasy managers will have to set their lineups […]
