Julio Jones Quiet Amidst Big Offensive Day For Falcons

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones finished Week 5 with a disappointing line, catching just three of his seven targets for 42 yards. Matt Ryan threw for 330 yards in the game and the team scored a total of four touchdowns, but Jones was far from center stage in the offensive outburst. Calvin Ridley led […]

Vyncint Smith Scores In First Game With Jets

New York Jets wide receiver Vyncint Smith rushed for a 19-yard touchdown on an end-around in his first game after signing with the Jets. Smith was signed off the Texans practice squad during the Jets bye week and managed to score the team's second offensive touchdown of the season after the Eagles muffed a punt […]

Mohamed Sanu Scores His First Touchdown Of The Year

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu has now put together three straight strong outings dating back to Week 3. This week, Sanu caught all five of his targets for 42 yards and a touchdown, his first score of the year. Sanu now has 20 receptions over his last three games. The Falcons' passing attack is […]

Austin Hooper Catches Six Passes For 56 Yards In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper continued his strong start to the season in Week 5, catching six of his nine targets for 56 yards. He's now caught six-or-more passes in four of five games this year, a fantastic clip for a tight end, especially in PPR leagues. Hooper tied with Calvin Ridley for the […]

Luke Falk Struggles Again Sunday

New York Jets quarterback Luke Falk had an afternoon to forget Sunday in Philadelphia. Falk completed 15 of 26 passes for only 120 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions. In fairness to Falk both of his starts were on the road in tough matchups, but he has made it abundantly clear he is not […]

Calvin Ridley Leads Falcons In Receiving In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley had a solid bounce-back game in Week 5 after two straight disappointing outings. Ridley caught five of his nine targets for 88 yards and a touchdown in Week 5. He led the team in receiving yards in the game and tied with Austin Hooper for the team lead in […]

Robby Anderson Quiet Again Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson had another quiet afternoon Sunday catching just one of three targets for 16 yards. There was hope for Anderson coming into the game against an Eagles Defense that allowed the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, but the Jets offense could get nothing going with third-string QB […]

Ito Smith Gains 64 Total Yards In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith had his biggest yardage output on the season in Week 5. He rushed five times for 19 yards and caught all six of his targets for 45 yards. He's still the clear No. 2 behind Devonta Freeman but he actually received one more target than Freeman this week, which […]

Devonta Freeman Scores First Touchdown In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman found the end zone for the first time this season in Week 5. Freeman carried the ball 11 times for 30 yards and caught five passes for 40 yards and a touchdown. Freeman's struggled to run the ball effectively this year, but he's been productive in the passing game […]

Le'Veon Bell Totals 88 Yards

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed for 43 yards on 15 carries while racking up 45 receiving yards on seven receptions in a loss to the Eagles. The Jets offense, again, could get absolutely nothing going with third-string quarterback Luke Falk under center, but Bell was able to salvage a decent fantasy day […]

Michael Thomas Shines Against the Buccaneers

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas was unstoppable against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Saints star hauled in 11 of 13 targets for 182 yards and two touchdowns against the Bucs secondary. Thomas' combination of elite route running and ability to catch the football proved very difficult to defend for Tampa Bay and led […]

Matt Ryan Throws For 330 Yards, Scores Four Touchdowns

In an absolute shootout of a game, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan completed 32-of-46 passes for 330 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. He also ran in a touchdown, giving him four total touchdowns on the day. Unfortunately for Ryan, his team couldn't hold off the Texans and the team fell to 1-4 on the […]

Zay Jones Nowhere To Be Found In Week 5

The Buffalo Bills spread the ball around to a number of receivers in Week 5 against the Titans, but none of those receivers happened to be named Zay Jones. Josh Allen targeted Duke Williams four times and found Isaiah McKenzie for a 46-yard gain in the game. Meanwhile, Jones wasn't targeted even once. Nine other […]

Dawson Knox Has A Rough Game In Week 5

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox caught just two of his five targets and managed just 12 yards in Week 5. Knox had shown promise the past two weeks, catching three passes each week while gaining over 50 yards in both games. He's little more than a worst-case scenario starting option in fantasy at this […]

Duke Williams Scores Game-Winning Touchdown In Bills Debut

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Duke Williams certainly rewarded the team for promoting him to the active roster for the first time this week. Williams caught the game-winning touchdown for the Bills in Week 5, helping lead the team to a 14-7 victory over the Titans. Williams was targeted four times in the game and caught […]

Isaiah McKenzie Hauls In Two Catches For 52 Yards

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie had his team's longest play from scrimmage in Week 5, gaining 46 yards on one of his two receptions. McKenzie was targeted twice in the game and caught both of them, finishing with 52 receiving yards in the game, a season-high. He was second on the team in receiving […]

Cole Beasley Manages Just Three Catches For 21 Yards

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley had his least productive outing of the season in Week 5, catching just three passes for 21 yards against the Titans. Beasley caught all three of his targets, but was out-targeted by four other Bills, which was certainly a surprise. Beasley had received nine-plus targets in three of four […]

Alexander Mattison Rushes For 52 Yards In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison rushed seven times for 52 yards in Week 5's victory over the New York Giants. He did not receive a target in the game. Mattison did most of his damage in the second half when the Vikings had a sizeable lead and were looking to milk the clock, which […]

John Brown Leads Bills In Receiving In Week 5

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown caught all five of his targets in Week 5 and gained 75 yards. He led the team in both receptions and receiving yards and his 75 yards were the most he's had this season since his monstrous 123-yard Week 1 outburst. Brown will be a potential starter on a […]

Tyler Boyd Hauls In 10 Receptions Against Cards

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd hauled in 10 receptions for 123 yards and a touchdown during the loss to the Cardinals. With A.J. Green (foot) and John Ross (shoulder) both out of the equation, Boyd was the clear-cut No. 1 option for quarterback Andy Dalton. The 24-year-old has gotten plenty of looks and will […]

T.J. Yeldon Gains 28 Yards On Six Touches In Week 5

Buffalo Bills running back T.J. Yeldon earned two carries and five targets in Sunday's 14-7 victory over the Titans. He rushed for 15 yards and caught four of his targets for 13 yards. Frank Gore was the workhorse back for the Bills once again, receiving 14 carries. Yeldon tied for the most targets on the […]

Frank Gore Rushes For 60 Yards In Week 5

Buffalo Bills running back Frank Gore shouldered the rushing workload for the Bills once again in Week 5, but the results were slightly underwhelming. Gore carried the ball 14 times and gained 60 yards in the game. He had managed double-digit fantasy points in standard-scoring leagues for three straight weeks before this week's game. It […]

Joe Mixon Rushes For 93 Yards

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon recorded a season-high 93 yards off of 19 carries in the loss to Arizona on Sunday. After rushing for 62 yards in Week 4, the third-year man was able to get a little something going against a weak Cardinals Defense. Things will get much more difficult for Mixon in […]

Dan Bailey Nails Four Field Goals In 28-10 Win

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey had a great game on Sunday, hitting all four of his field goal attempts and both extra points in a 28-10 victory over the New York Giants. Bailey was very busy in Week 5, knocking in field goals from 31, 48, 32, and 45 yards in a confidence-boosting performance for […]

Josh Allen Throws For 219 Yards And Two Touchdowns

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had been questionable for Week 5's game all week while going through the concussion protocol, but he managed to take the field and lead the Bills to victory. Allen completed 23-of-32 passes on the day for 219 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. He also added 27 rushing yards. It […]

Andy Dalton Throws Two Touchdowns in Week 5

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton went 27-for-38 for 262 yards and two touchdowns during the narrow loss to Arizona on Sunday. With the team without John Ross (shoulder), the veteran got some production from wideouts Tyler Boyd and Auden Tate, who both combined for 149 yards and two scores on the day. Despite injuries, the […]

Patriots Defense Rolls Over Redskins

The New England Patriots Defense recorded six sacks one interception and one fumble recovery as the Patriots cruised past the hapless Redskins 33-7. The defense was on its heels in the first quarter after Redskins wide receiver Steven Sims took an end-around 65 yards for a touchdown. But the good times did not roll for […]

Stefon Diggs Catches Four Passes For 44 Yards

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught 3-of-4 targets for 44 scoreless yards in Week 5's 28-10 win over the New York Giants. Diggs was recently fined over $200,000 for his unexcused absence from practice and both Diggs and Mike Zimmer were noncommittal of his playing status throughout the week, but he started and played […]

Mike Nugent Misses Extra-Point In Debut

New England Patriots kicker Mike Nugent made his debut with the team, hitting both of his field goal attempts but missing an extra-point in the Patriots win over the Redskins. The 37-year-old won an open tryout this week after long-time kicker Stephen Gostkowski was placed on IR with a hip injury. Nugent missed on his […]

Reggie Bonnafon Scores On Sunday

Carolina Panthers running back Reggie Bonnafon rushed for 80 yards and a score off of five attempts against the Jaguars on Sunday. While Christian McCaffrey virtually monopolized the team's offensive attack, the rookie was able to get something going after posting just five yards so far in 2019. Nonetheless, he possesses little fantasy value unless […]
