Week 9 has arrived, and some teams are switching starting quarterbacks because of struggles or injuries. The Eagles will turn to Joe Milton, while the Vikings will roll with Carson Wentz, as Kyler Murray is not expected to play. Shedeur Sanders will also start as Deshaun Watson is likely to miss Week 9 with a […]

It's not easy to let go of a player who's served you well this season in fantasy football. You may think players who have done well to this point will surely continue to score highly and should be started for the rest of the season. But we've seen numerous examples of players getting off to […]

The Baltimore Ravens had terrible injury luck on Sunday. On his first play back from an ankle sprain, star quarterback Lamar Jackson injured his thumb, landing him on injured reserve. Backup passer Tyler Huntley proceeded to exit with a reportedly season-ending toe issue, and third-string QB Joe Fagnano picked up an ankle injury. Although the […]

What appears like it may be a disappointing season for many players can instead quickly turn into a big second-half breakout that shouldn't be ignored in fantasy football leagues. Of course, it's not possible to predict with perfect accuracy which players might have great second halves of the season. But we should at least analyze […]

Looking back on Week 8, there were plenty of high-scoring NFL games, but it didn't feel like an explosive week for fantasy football. A handful of teams with multiple fantasy stars underperforming could explain why. For example, the Detroit Lions, Baltimore Ravens, and Atlanta Falcons scored just 29 points combined. Needless to say, it was […]

While several games have totals of 51 or 50 points, I'm not looking at any of them this week. Just because they have super high totals doesn't mean we get good betting options. Those games have expectations for scoring, so the betting lines are adjusted to account for that. That often creates artificially juiced lines,... […]

The craziness of the NFL continues in Week 9. On top of all the injuries and breakout performances, we have the trade deadline upcoming on Tuesday. Generally speaking, I'm under the impression that teams will continue to operate normally unless there's a significant report regarding a player. I'll sort through all of this when it... […]

Jared Goff and D'Andre Swift sit close together in the dynasty market, but the offers I'd make for them are different. Goff's seven-game passing production is strong despite a quiet Week 8. Swift's 29-touch night in Seattle was encouraging, though three touchdowns could make this an expensive time to buy. Josh Jacobs is cheaper, with […]

There are a ton of big games this weekend, but most of them are on the later slates. We still have some big-time players since Alabama-LSU was moved to the afternoon. We have Texas and Missouri in an old Big 12 clash. We also have a plethora of teams that you won't want to touch […]

It was a light Friday last week, but we are back in full swing this week with five games on tap. Now I have to try to explain to my wife why I'm repeatedly checking my lineups during our anniversary dinner. We've got a little bit of everything on this slate. We have the smothering […]
