Joe Flacco Not A Viable Play In Week 6

Denver Broncos quarterback Joe Flacco has only had one good week in the five week long season thus far, and things don't lighten up in Week 6 for the veteran signal-caller. Flacco lines up against a Tennessee Titans Defense that is a constant threat to opposing quarterbacks. It would be desperate to throw Flacco into […]

Royce Freeman's Value Is On The Decline

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman's value has started to head on the decline in recent weeks, as he continues to get outproduced by teammate Phillip Lindsay. Freeman had a rough showing last week fantasy-wise and faces a Tennessee Titans Defense that ranks ninth against opposing running backs. Freeman should be on benches in most […]

Phillip Lindsay Is A Flex Option In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay has started to prove doubters wrong as he is slowly putting together a strong 2019 season. Lindsay continues to outproduce teammate Royce Freeman, although Freeman is constantly stealing reps from Lindsay out of the backfield. The sophomore back Lindsay faces a stout Tennessee Titans Defense but hopes to still […]

Vikings Defense Is A Low-End Starting Option Against Eagles

The Vikings Defense is a unit that you're generally starting regardless of the matchup, but expectations should be lowered slightly for Week 6's home tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles. Carson Wentz and company rank seventh in the NFL with 28.2 points/game and have a few dangerous weapons in Alshon Jeffery, Zach Ertz, and Miles Sanders. […]

Jets Defense Shorthanded Again Sunday

The New York Jets Defense will be shorthanded again Sunday in a home matchup with a Cowboys offense that is currently leading the NFL in total offense. Star linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) and defensive end Henry Anderson (shoulder) are both "highly unlikely" to play, though neither has officially been ruled out. In addition to missing […]

Sam Ficken Hoping For More Opportunity

New York Jets kicker Sam Ficken hasn't played much this season with the Jets offense struggling to get anything going. In three weeks, Ficken has only attempted two field goals, converting one, and has only had two extra-point attempts. Ficken wasn't on an NFL roster to start the season and was signed after the Jets […]

Ryan Griffin Will Start Again Sunday

New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin will start again Sunday with Chris Herndon (hamstring) still not playing. Week 6 was supposed to be the time Herndon returned from a four-game suspension, but a hamstring injury will keep Griffin on the field. Despite an extended time as the starter, Griffin hasn't done anything to make […]

Jamison Crowder Looking To Bounce Back Vs Dallas

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder will look to turn his season around Sunday when he'll reunite with starting quarterback Sam Darnold. Crowder made 14 catches on 17 targets in Week 1 with Darnold on the field, but Crowder has disappointed since then. In three games without Darnold, Crowder has put up only 75 […]

Kyle Rudolph Is A Touchdown-Dependent TE2 in Week 6

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph has been close to non-existent from a fantasy football perspective so far this year, catching 6-of-8 targets for 36 scoreless yards in five games played. He has been on the field for at least 84% of offensive snaps in each game but is being asked to block on most […]

Robby Anderson In Line For Another Tough Matchup

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has disappointed fantasy owners so far this season. He is yet to score a touchdown and has 23 yards of less in three of four games. Having starting QB Sam Darnold back on Sunday should help Anderson some, but the fourth-year receiver still faces a brutal test this […]

Bench Corey Davis In Week 6

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis has not seen the third-year jump that many expected up to this point in the season, catching just 13 of 22 targets for 201 yards and a touchdown. Davis has been overshadowed by rookie receiver A.J. Brown, who is leading the team in both receiving yards and touchdowns. Davis […]

A.J. Brown A Low-End WR3 In Week 6

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown has quickly ascended as the team's alpha wide receiver in his rookie season. Brown enters Week 6 with 12 receptions for 250 yards and two touchdowns, all while being second in the league in yards per reception. Brown also had a third touchdown called back a week ago due […]

Delanie Walker A Low-End TE1 In Week 6

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker has been underwhelming following his two-touchdown game in Week 1, but he remains in TE1 consideration due primarily to positional scarcity. Walker has not only seen his production drop, but has also seen less snaps than tight end Jonnu Smith in the past two games. Walker is likely still […]

Sam Darnold Looks To Spark Jets Offense

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (mono) has been medically cleared to play and will lead the Jets offense Sunday when the Cowboys come to town. Darnold has been limited to one game this season due to illness, and the Jets have been among the worst offenses in the league in his absence. Having Darnold […]

Dion Lewis Not In Play In Week 6

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis has gotten off to a disappointing start to the 2019 season, touching the ball a total of 26 times for just 97 yards through five games. Lewis has been severely outplayed by fellow running back Derrick Henry, who has carried his late-season run in 2018 over to this season […]

Derrick Henry A Borderline RB1 In Week 6

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry continues to produce weekly fantasy value despite very little involvement in the team's passing game. Henry enters a Week 6 matchup with the Denver Broncos with 388 yards and five total touchdowns on the season. The Broncos Defense has been susceptible to big games from running backs thus far […]

Le'Veon Bell A High-End RB2 Sunday

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell will look to find the end zone for the first time since Week 1 on Sunday in a matchup with the Cowboys. Bell has had a solid floor in fantasy by playing 94.3 percent of the offensive snaps and leading the team in targets. His dominance in playing […]

Marcus Mariota Looking To Make More Plays

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has protected the ball extremely well thus far in 2019, with seven total touchdowns and no turnovers through five games. While the Titans do want him to continue protecting the ball, they also need him to start pushing the ball down the field for more big plays. Look for offensive […]

Chris Boswell Could Be Busy On Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell might be called upon often for Sunday's road game against the LA Chargers. The 28-year-old is a perfect 10-for-10 on field goals while not missing an extra point in nine tries. With Devlin Hodges set to start at quarterback for Pittsburgh, the offense might have a tough time closing out […]

The Steelers Defense Not A Good Option For Week 6

The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense isn't a great streaming option for a Week 6 matchup with the LA Chargers. Over their last five road games, Pittsburgh has allowed at least 24 points in each of them, all of which resulted in a loss. Now, the defense will have extra pressure on it with Mason Rudolph (concussion) […]

Vance McDonald Will Play On Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) was a full participant in Friday's practice and will be available to play in Sunday's game against the Chargers. The 29-year-old has been very quiet on the field over the past few weeks, including missing Week 4. McDonald has just four catches on five targets for 44 yards. […]

Diontae Johnson A Solid Flex Option In Week 6

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has led the team with 20 targets over the last three weeks. Since most teams try to neutralize JuJu Smith-Schuster, Johnson has been the prime beneficiary of more relaxed coverage. Also consider that James Washington (shoulder) is out on Sunday against the LA Chargers, and the rookie Johnson has […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster A Low-End WR2 On Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will have third-string, rookie quarterback Devlin Hodges throwing to him on Sunday night against the LA Chargers. The third-year pass catcher has really struggled with distracting team's top cornerbacks every week and thus remained relatively quiet. However, a 35-yard touchdown last week is what keeps him in your lineups. While […]

Chase McLaughlin Expected To Start Again

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin is expected to draw the start once again in Week 6 as kicker Michael Badgley is doubtful due to his groin issue. McLaughlin made two of three field goals last week, and he'll probably get a shot or two again this week. Unfortunately, he's not a long-term play and […]

Uchenna Nwosu Garners Praise From Coaches

Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Uchenna Nwosu racked up his first sack of the season against the Broncos last week, and sure enough, coaches were singing his praises this week. Defensive coordinator Gus Bradley told the media that Nwosu has been impressive in taking on more of a pass rushing role with defensive end Melvin Ingram […]

Keenan Allen Looks To Repeat 2018

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will be looking to recreate the magic from last season when he faces the Steelers this weekend. Allen demolished Pittsburgh's secondary last year when he tallied 14 catches for 148 yards and a touchdown, and he'll hope to do similar damage this year. Obviously, there's risk associated with […]

Mike Williams Is A Risky Choice

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is a real hit-or-miss play this week, and there are solid arguments to be made for both sides. Williams could completely bust this week because LA is facing a Steelers Defense that has been very stingy over the last four weeks, and Williams is usually a ways down […]

Austin Ekeler Should Get Plenty More Chances

Los Angeles Chargers running back/pass-catching extraordinaire Austin Ekeler will likely see a whole lot of opportunities again this week. Ekeler caught a whopping 15 passes last week against the Broncos, and with LA squaring off against a hard-nosed Pittsburgh defense, expect Philip Rivers to use Ekeler as an easy out once again. That said, there […]

Melvin Gordon Faces A Tough Task

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon will get his second shot at game speed on Sunday, but he'll have his hands full against a Pittsburgh defense that has been on fire. The deck is stacked against him as Gordon looked rusty in his first appearance, his offensive line is bad and injured, and the […]

Seahawks Without Duane Brown, D.J. Fluker In Week 6

Seattle Seahawks left tackle Duane Brown (biceps) and offensive guard D.J. Fluker (hamstring) have both been ruled out for Week 6 against the Browns. Guard Ethan Pocic (back) was also placed on Injured Reserve on Friday. Seattle's offensive line is banged up entering a matchup with an imposing Cleveland pass rush, so this could be […]
