Nick Mullens Fails To Find End Zone

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Nick Mullens completed 22 of 38 passes for 241 yards and an interception in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Despite three promising first half drives, the Niners settled for field goals and ultimately failed to score a single touchdown the entire game. Mullens never really had a chance against an […]

Vyncint Smith Catches Touchdown Against Eagles

Houston Texans wide receiver Vyncint Smith caught his only target of Sunday's game, a 35-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to help put the Texans briefly in front. Smith was only seeing playing time because Demaryius Thomas left the game with an Achilles injury, but with Thomas out and Keke Coutee (hamstring) not being a […]

LeSean McCoy Continues To Struggle

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy racked up a whopping 19 yards from scrimmage in Sunday's Week 16 loss to Patriots.

Dalvin Cook Posts Useful Line In Win

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook had another productive outing on Sunday, rushing 16 times for 73 yards and adding three catches on three targets for 35 receiving yards in the 27-9 win over the Detroit Lions. As with the entire offense, Cook started this game slowly as the Lions kicked field goals and the […]

Jeffery Wilson Stuffed On 13 Touches

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeffery Wilson handled 11 carries for only 27 yards while grabbing two balls for 11 yards in Week 16. Wilson had the backfield to himself after Matt Breida (ankle) was reinjured but couldn’t get anything going against a stifling Chicago Bears defense. With Breida highly questionable for Week 17, Wilson […]

DeAndre Carter Catches Six Passes Against Eagles

Houston Texans wide receiver Deandre Carter caught six passes for 61 yards in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. With wide receivers Demaryius Thomas (Achilles) out for the season and Keke Coutee (hamstring) still a question mark, Carter could be a surprise in Week 17 against the Jaguars as Jacksonville keys in on stopping Houston's […]

Kirk Cousins Shreds Lions

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 21-of-28 passes for 253 yards and three touchdowns against the Detroit Lions in Week 16. The Vikings struggled to move the ball until exploding for 14 points with just minutes left in the first half, thanks in part to a end-of-half successful Hail Mary to tight end Kyle Rudolph. […]

Matt Breida Reinjures Ankle

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) reinjured his ankle in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Breida totaled just four carries for 20 yards and caught a six-yard pass prior to exiting the game.

DeAndre Hopkins Has 104 Receiving Yards In Week 16

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught nine passes for 104 yards in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It was his second consecutive game with over 100 receiving yards.

Josh Allen Completes Season-High 20 Passes

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 20 of 41 pass attempts for 217 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.

D'Onta Foreman Catches Touchdown, Struggles As Rusher

Houston Texans running back D'Onta Foreman saw the field for the first time this season in Houston's Week 16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Deshaun Watson Has Four Total Touchdowns Against Eagles

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for 339 yards and two touchdowns on 29-for-40 passing in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Nick Chubb Tops 100 Yards Against Bengals

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb carried the ball 19 times for 112 yards while adding two receptions for another three yards in his team's 26-18 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 16.

Aaron Rodgers Dominates In Week 16

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers finally delivered the monster performance that we have been waiting on all season. Against the New York Jets, he threw for 442 yards on 37-for-55 passing with two touchdowns He added two rushing touchdowns and a two-point conversion on the day. Rodgers didn’t look dramatically better than he has earlier […]

Jacquizz Rodgers Vultures Peyton Barber's Day

Buccaneers third-down running back Jacquizz Rodgers stole the production from starting back Peyton Barber on Sunday. Rodgers didn't exactly usurp Barber but certainly was more effective throughout the game. Barber's inability to operate in open-space as a pass-catcher hurts his value. Rodgers is more fit for the 2-minute offense Tampa ran towards the end of […]

Mike Evans Comes Up Big in Week 16

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had his best game in weeks on championship weekend. Evans caught six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown to reward owners who rode his inconsistent rollercoaster all season.

Adam Humphries Sees Season High in Targets

Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries was as remarkable as ever (in PPR leagues). He caught 10 passes on 12 targets for 79 yards on Sunday. This was his first "good" game in weeks but it couldn't have come at a better time for anyone willing enough to start him. He's been a target hog throughout […]

Jameis Winston Does Just Enough in Week 16

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston was fairly average in Week 16. With 335 yards and just one touchdown, Winston probably wasn't a difference maker in Championship matchups (if started). High passing yard volume and low touchdown totals have plagued Winston owners for years now along with the turnovers. Winston fumbling twice on Sunday is nothing new […]

Alshon Jeffery Catches Three Passes in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery caught three passes in Week 16, gaining 82 yards. Jeffery was expected to be a huge part of the passing game with Nick Foles under center, but Foles ended up focusing on tight end Zach Ertz instead, giving Jeffery only five targets to work with. With next week being […]

Dante Pettis Won't Play In Season Finale

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis (knee) suffered an MCL injury in the Week 16 loss to the Bears. He will not require surgery, but Pettis won't play in Week 17 against the Rams. Pettis caught three of his five targets for 21 yards on Sunday, so he wasn't of much help to his […]

Golden Tate Only Catches Two Passes in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Golden Tate only caught two passes on Sunday, gaining just 13 yards. Despite quarterback Nick Foles completing 35 passes for 471 yards, Tate was again barely involved in the offensive game plan.

Nelson Agholor Scores His Second Touchdown of the Season in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor had a huge game in Week 16, catching five passes for 116 yards and a touchdown.

Zach Ertz Catches Two Touchdowns in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught 12 passes on Sunday, gaining 110 yards and scoring two touchdowns.

Darren Sproles Plays a Vintage Sproles Game in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles was vintage Darren Sproles in Week 16, running the ball nine times for 32 yards and adding three catches for 76 yards and a touchdown. Sproles missed a ton of games this season, but he's now scored three touchdowns in his past four games, making him an interesting flex […]

Josh Adams Does Next to Nothing in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams ran the ball 11 times, gaining just 21 yards in Sunday's win. He fumbled in the fourth quarter, nearly losing the game for his team. Adams barely showed up on fantasy scoreboards and has fallen into low-end flex status at best. He is not involved in the passing game […]

Nick Foles Goes Nuts in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles annihilated the Houston Texans defense in Week 16. He completed 35 of his 49 pass attempts for 471 yards and four touchdowns. He did throw an interception, but anyone who started Foles in their fantasy championship matchup likely did not mind the pick. Foles got some help from great plays […]

Cole Beasley Racks Up 50 Yards in Week 16

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley caught five passes, gaining 50 yards on Sunday. Beasley has suddenly become more involved in the passing game over the past two weeks, making nine catches for 92 yards. He'd be a low-end flex play if the pattern continued, but there's a chance the Cowboys elect to rest Beasley […]

Michael Gallup Hauls in a Touchdown in Week 16

Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Michael Gallup caught three passes on Sunday, gaining 53 yards and scoring a touchdown. Gallup was a no-show in last week's box score, but he led the team in receiving in this one, catching quarterback Dak Prescott's only touchdown pass. With the Cowboys locked into the NFC East title, Gallup […]
