Mecole Hardman Isn't Targeted in Victory

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has been able to make noise when he's been called upon this season. However, the Chiefs are healthy and his role on the team has quickly decreased. Hardman wasn't targeted at all during the Week 13 victory over the Oakland Raiders. He ran the ball once for nine […]

Kyler Murray Has Miserable Day

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) folded under constant pressure against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13. He popped up on the injury report Friday with a hamstring issue, and he didn't appear to have his usual mobility. Murray was 19-for-34 for 163 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. He did add a late […]

Sammy Watkins Held Catchless in Week 13

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins hasn't been able to explode on the fantasy stat sheet since Week 1. He's been able to hold decent fantasy value, but killed his owners on Sunday. Watkins failed to make a single catch on three targets during the Week 13 win over the Raiders. He remains on […]

Terry McLaurin Struggling In Hopeless Passing Game

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin hauled in just two catches for eight yards on four targets in Sunday's win over the Panthers. While his lack of production in Week 13 can easily be attributed to the success Washington had in the running game, the much more glaring issue burdening McLaurin's fantasy value is his […]

Tyreek Hill is Slowed Down by Oakland

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was projected to have a great game on paper in Week 13, but that didn't end up happening. Hill caught five of his eight targets for 55 yards in the victory over the Raiders. The Chiefs passing attack wasn't strong in this one, so fantasy owners shouldn't blame […]

Kyle Allen Throws Two Touchdowns In Loss

Carolina Panthers quarterback Kyle Allen finished with 278 yards and two touchdowns, with one interception, on 27-for-46 passing during the loss to the Redskins on Sunday. While Allen completed only 58 percent of his passes, it was another acceptable performance after he threw four picks against the Falcons a few weeks ago. Turnovers continue to […]

Travis Kelce Finishes With 90 Yards

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been one of the most reliable tight end options all year. He caught at least seven receptions in each of his last three games heading into the Week 13 matchup with the Oakland Raiders. Kelce hauled in five of his nine targets for 90 yards in the […]

Kelvin Harmon Continues Connection With His QB

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon led his team in targets for the second time in three games on Sunday. While the fact that he did so in Week 13 with just five targets tells you everything you need to know about Washington's passing game, Harmon is clearly emerging as a preferred option for quarterback […]

Darrel Williams is Invisible in Week 13

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams was the backup running back to veteran LeSean McCoy for the Week 13 matchup with the Oakland Raiders. Both Williams and McCoy were unable to get anything going in the run game. Third string back Darwin Thompson was the only Chiefs' running back to have a solid game […]

Chris Thompson A Non-Factor Against Panthers

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson was held in check on Sunday, accounting for just 29 total yards on four touches. While the per-touch efficiency was certainly there, Thompson wasn't needed much as a pass-catcher in a game the Redskins dominated on the ground with Adrian Peterson and Derrius Guice. Thompson will continue to suffer […]

Zach Ertz Goes Cold On Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz had three catches for 24 yards during the loss to Miami on Sunday. Ertz was able to play despite battling a bum hamstring coming into this one but still struggled to get involved after combining for 36 targets over the last three games. With over a week until the […]

LeSean McCoy Gets TD Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy was the lead back for the team with Damien Williams (ribs) ruled out for Week 13. McCoy rushed five times for 10 yards and a touchdown with three receptions for 20 yards through the air. The touchdown salvaged his fantasy value, but he has a tough matchup against […]

Sam Darnold Expected To Be Fine

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) was seen limping near the end of the Week 13 loss to the Bengals, but he downplayed his injury. Head coach Adam Gase said, "He just took some shots on the last drive. He kind of got torqued a little bit, but he should be all right." Darnold […]

Darwin Thompson Snags Late-Game Touchdown

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson wasn't expected to see much action in this one despite Damien Williams (ribs) sitting out. Veteran LeSean McCoy and Darrel Williams were expected to carry the load in the backfield. Unfortunately, Williams left during the second half due to a hamstring issue Thompson came in and carried the […]

Adrian Peterson Goes Off Despite Workload Split

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson toted the ball 13 times on Sunday, racking up 99 yards and a touchdown on the way. The Week 13 performance marked the first time since Derrius Guice returned three games ago that Peterson was able to do anything of consequence with his limited work. In what has to […]

Alshon Jeffery Solid In Return

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery caught nine of his 16 targets for 137 yards and a touchdown during the loss to Miami on Sunday. Jeffery returned from a two-game absence after suffering an ankle injury a few weeks ago and made the most of it by pulling in a 10-yard pass from Carson Wentz […]

Patrick Mahomes Has Quiet Day in Victory

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw for a career-low 182 passing yards during this last outing in Week 12. He was expected to have a big bounce-back game here, but ended up throwing for a new career low in passing yards. Mahomes completed 15 of 29 passes for 175 yards and one touchdown in […]

Derrius Guice Does Major Damage In Breakout Performance

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice erupted for 129 yards and two touchdowns on just 10 carries in Sunday's win over the Panthers, marking by far the best performance of his young career. There was promise coming into the matchup against a porous Panthers run defense, with the downside being that Guice might continue to […]

Packers Defense Intercepts Three Passes

The Green Bay Packers Defense intercepted three passes in a 31-13 win over the New York Giants. It's a shame that the Packers didn't pick up any sacks, as that would have added to their points total. Darnell Savage, Kevin King and Tramon Williams all had an interception off Daniel Jones. Green Bay could be […]

Dwayne Haskins Defers To Running Game In Win

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins won his second consecutive game on Sunday in a surprise road upset of the Panthers. While the Redskins will take 'em any way they can get 'em at this point, Haskins once again did not significantly factor into the victory. It was his third straight game with a completion rate […]

Mason Crosby Has Solid Day Against Giants

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby made his lone field-goal attempt and all four extra points in a 31-13 victory over the New York Giants. The 35-year-old has made a field goal in four straight games. Of slight concern is the fact that Crosby ranks just 26th in field goal attempts, though he's made up […]

Miles Sanders Scores In Week 13

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders rushed for 83 yards on 17 carries, while also adding five catches for 22 yards and a touchdown during the loss to Miami on Sunday. Sanders has been decent while filling in for Jordan Howard (shoulder), averaging 13.3 attempts and 61 yards over the last three games. Howard may […]

Marcedes Lewis Snags Touchdown In Week 13

Green Bay Packers tight end Marcedes Lewis caught his only target for one yard and a touchdown in his team's 31-13 win over the New York Giants. Lewis played the role of a vulture in this one, snatching away a touchdown meant for Jimmy Graham. The veteran tight end became the 38th player to catch […]

Kendrick Bourne Paces Niners Pass-Catchers

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne led the Niners in receiving with 42 yards and three catches in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens. In a rainy contest, the trustworthy but unspectacular Bourne made his typical impact on the margins despite being the fourth-best option in the passing game. The output marked just his […]

Jimmy Graham Catches One Pass

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham caught his lone target for 16 yards in his team's 31-13 victory over the New York Giants. That makes back-to-back games for him with only one catch. To make matters worse, he had his touchdown chance snatched away by backup Mercedes Lewis. Graham has been a shell of […]

49ers Defense Falls In Final Seconds

The San Francisco 49ers Defense played well but allowed a walk-off field goal to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 13. Aided by wet conditions, the Niners held the Ravens to their lowest scoring total this season, collecting a sack and fumble in the process. Considering Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had been shredding defenders, the performance […]

Tyrell Williams Does Next To Nothing In Week 13

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Tyrell Williams had his worst game of the season in Week 13 as the team got steamrolled by the Chiefs 40-9. He caught one pass for a measly nine yards, which came on the final drive of the game. Williams did finish second on the team with four targets as the […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Makes Minimal Impact In Wet Conditions

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 15 of 21 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown in Week 13’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Garoppolo found rookie wideout Deebo Samuel for a nifty 33-yard touchdown on the opening drive, but got nothing going afterwards as the rainy elements dictated game flow. Jimmy G also […]

Geronimo Allison Quiet Against Giants

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison caught two of three targets for 20 yards in his team's 31-13 win over the New York Giants. The struggle continues for Allison, as he's been under 50 receiving yards in eight straight games. There's absolutely no reason to trust him moving forward, especially with crucial playoff matchups […]

Allen Lazard Breaks Out With 103 Yards

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught all three targets for 103 yards and a score in a 31-13 win over the New York Giants. Lazard was wide open on his 37-yard touchdown catch, likely the result of a busted coverage by the Giants. Still, the 23-year-old was trending in the right direction, as […]
