Harrison Butker Has Strong Upside In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is having arguably the worst season of his NFL career, making just 72.7% of his field goal attempts. But he looked sharp last week, going 3-for-3 on field goals and 3-for-3 on extra points in a win over the Chargers. The nature of this Chiefs offense puts Butker in […]

Kansas City Chiefs running Isiah Pacheco has taken the reins of the team's backfield, and last week produced the first 100-yard rushing game for the team all season.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler should have no issues continuing his dominant season in Week 12 against an Arizona Cardinals defense that is allowing almost 27 points per game. Ekeler currently has 11 touchdowns this year and will have an excellent opportunity to find the end zone yet again on Sunday. With Keenan […]

Justin Herbert A Must-Start In Week 12

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert finished as a top-10 fantasy QB last week and will have another great opportunity to do so in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. Even with Mike Williams (ankle) officially ruled out, Herbert should be able […]

Eddy Pineiro Not Worth Starting In Week 12

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro has been steady as of late and will look to continue his success in a Week 12 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The Broncos currently surrender the second-fewest points in the league, though, so field goals may be tough to come by on Sunday. Carolina's offense could struggle to move […]

Panthers DST Hard To Trust Despite Solid Matchup

The Carolina Panthers defense/special teams will take on the Denver Broncos in Week 12.

DJ Moore Could Return To Form With QB Change

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore has posted his best fantasy production over the past two seasons with Sam Darnold at quarterback and will get a chance to repeat this success on Sunday when the team faces off against the Denver Broncos.

D'Onta Foreman A Risky Start In Week 12

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman struggled to get things going last week and will have another difficult test in Week 12 against the Denver Broncos.

Sam Darnold Not On Fantasy Radar For First Start Of Season

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold will make his first start of the 2022 campaign in a Week 12 matchup with the Denver Broncos. Darnold was named the starter earlier in the week after another underwhelming performance from Baker Mayfield last Sunday.
