Jared Cook Catches Touchdown Pass Against Jacksonville

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook picked up right where he left off in Week 5. Cook snagged all three of his targets for 37 yards and hauled in a nifty touchdown catch in his team's 13-6 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Cook has quietly become a red-zone favorite for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater. The […]

Paul Richardson Catches Zero Passes In Week 6

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson was targeted four times on Sunday, hauling in zero of them. This would qualify as a huge disappointment in a favorable matchup if Richardson had done anything of consequence in recent weeks, but he had only caught five passes for 28 yards in his last two games combined. He […]

Ryan Tannehill Gets A Chance in Week 6

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill came into the game in the third quarter after a horrendous performance by Marcus Mariota. Tannehill didn't play outstanding, but might get the nod against the Chargers next week. He completed 13 of 16 passing attempts for 144 yards and an interception in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Whether […]

Mohamed Sanu Catches Just Three Passes For 29 Yards

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu was due for a down game after three straight solid weeks. Quarterback Matt Ryan relied heavily on tight end Austin Hooper and Julio Jones in Week 6, with the two combining for 225 yards. Sanu was fourth on the team in targets in Week 6, with four, and he […]

Calvin Ridley Scores For Second Straight Week

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley caught four of his six targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Week 6. He was third on the team in receptions, targets and yards, behind Julio Jones and tight end Austin Hooper in all three categories. Ridley has four touchdowns through six games this year, which is […]

Marcus Mariota Gets Benched in Third Quarter

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was benched in the third quarter of the Week 6 matchup versus the Denver Broncos. Mariota was abysmal on Sunday, competing 7 of 18 passes for 63 yards and threw two interceptions in the loss. He was missing wide open receivers all day long, so this wasn't a surprising move. […]

Chris Thompson Sees Just Five Touches In Win

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson touched the ball a season-low five times for 20 total yards on Sunday. Washington's success on the ground with Adrian Peterson minimized the need to turn to Thompson as often as usual in the passing game, and he naturally turned in his worst fantasy outing of the season. For […]

Julio Jones Catches Eight Passes For 108 Yards

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones had a solid bounce-back game in Week 6, catching eight passes for 108 yards against the Cardinals. Given the favorable matchup and his underwhelming outputs the previous two weeks, Jones's 108 yards without a score in Week 6 might not fully please his owners, but it was a solid […]

Ted Ginn Quiet Against Jaguars

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn caught just two passes on six targets for 36 yards and rushed for 12 yards on one carry. The Saints leaned on the pass because star running back Alvin Kamara was limited by injury. Despite this, Ginn didn't do enough with his targets to bring fantasy value. He's […]

Phillip Lindsay Finds The End Zone In Win

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay continued his recent hot streak on Sunday afternoon as he posted a solid game against the Tennessee Titans. The 2nd-year running back totaled 75 yards on the afternoon, most coming from the running game. He also managed to find the end zone once during the game. Lindsay has now […]

Austin Hooper Dominates Cardinals For 117 Yards And A Score

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper was a terror on the Cardinals Defense in Week 6, catching all eight of his targets for a team-high 117 yards and a touchdown. He's now topped 100 yards in two of his past three games. The Cardinals are an extremely favorable matchup for tight ends so it's not […]

Terry McLaurin Continues Breakout Rookie Campaign

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught two touchdowns in Miami on Sunday, and those scores just happened to make the difference in his team's first victory of the season. McLaurin has now caught a touchdown in all four games in which both he and Case Keenum have played. His final line for the day […]

Ito Smith Sees Just Three Touches In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith had his best game of the year in Week 5 against the Texans, gaining a total of 64 yards on 11 touches. This week, however, he was barely involved. He didn't receive a single target in the passing game, despite earning a total of ten targets the previous two […]

Jared Cook Strikes Paydirt In Win Against The Jags

Jared Cook has been a touchdown-dependent TE at this point in the season, and on Sunday in week 6, he struck gold. Cook was targeted three times and made good on all of his targets. He finished the day with 37 yards and an impressive touchdown grab over safety Jarrod Wilson. This is now two […]

Adrian Peterson Finally Has A Day Against Dolphins

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson carried the ball 23 times for 118 yards in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. He was unable to cap off his performance with a touchdown, but his fantasy owners will take it after the veteran failed to reach even 30 yards on the ground in three of his previous […]

Jarvis Landry Quiet in Week 6

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry caught just three of his five targets for 36 yards in a 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. After leading the team in receiving the past two games, Landry took a backseat to Odell Beckham Jr. in the Week 6 loss. Landry hasn't been a consistent […]

Kirk Cousins Throws Four Touchdowns In Victory

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins had his second straight impressive performance in Week 6, completing 22-of-27 passes for 333 yards and four touchdowns in a 38-20 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He threw one touchdown to Adam Thielen and three to Stefon Diggs as the Vikings were able to dice up the injury-riddled Eagles secondary […]

Devonta Freeman Tops 100 Yards, Scores Twice

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman had his best game of the year in Week 6. He gained 118 yards from scrimmage on 22 touches, including three catches on three targets, and scored two receiving touchdowns. Freeman's previous season-high in total yards was exactly 100 in Week 4, a week where he failed to find […]

Michael Thomas Posts Solid Line In Week 6 Win

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas caught a team-high eight of 12 targets for 89 yards in his team's Week 6 win. Thomas was leaned on in the second half after an already-hobbled Alvin Kamara tweaked his knee. The star wideout has a good rapport with quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, though the two failed to […]

Demarcus Robinson Has A Dud Versus Texans

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson was unable to do anything in the 31-24 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 6. Robinson was targeted four times in the passing game, but caught none of them. Robinson had caught at least three passes every week since Week 1 heading into Sunday. Tyreek Hill is […]

Matt Ryan Shines With Four Touchdowns In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan took full advantage of a generous Cardinals Defense in Week 6, completing 30-of-36 passes for 356 yards and four touchdowns with no turnovers. This was his second game in a row with four total touchdowns, as he had three passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown in Week 5. He's thrown […]

Case Keenum Plays Well Enough To Win In Miami

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum didn't have his best statistical performance on Sunday, completing just over 50% of his 25 pass attempts for 166 yards. What mattered more than any of that was the two touchdowns he threw to help the Redskins earn their first win of the 2019 season over the Dolphins. Keenum found […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Goes for 101 Yards

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. caught 6-of-11 targets for 101 yards in a 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. It goes down as Beckham's first 100-yard game since he dismantled the New York Jets back in Week 2. Beckham had two receptions negated thanks to penalties but he also had […]

Byron Pringle Fizzles Out in Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle had a huge 103 yard performance last week, but was unable to do it again in Week 6. Pringle caught two of his three targets for 24 yards in the loss to the Houston Texans. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) returning basically killed all of Pringle's fantasy value. Hill, Sammy […]

Latavius Murray Has Season-Best Game in Week 6

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray posted a season-high 79 yards from scrimmage against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He led the Saints in rushing yards with 44 on eight attempts and was active in the passing game, with three catches for 35 yards. The day could have been even more fruitful for Murray, as his […]

Nick Chubb Rumbles for Two Scores

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb had a big game in a 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. Chubb carried the ball 20 times for 122 yards and two touchdowns while adding five catches for 17 yards in the losing effort. The multi-touchdown game was Chubb's second in his past three contests, […]

Mecole Hardman Hauls in All Four Targets

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman saw extra snaps on Sunday with Sammy Watkins (hamstring) being sidelined. Hardman caught all four of his targets for 45 yards in the 31-24 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 6. Hardman has been able to hold some fantasy value with the Chiefs banged up at receiver. […]

Baker Mayfield Accounts for Two TDs, Throws Three Picks

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield had an up-and-down day in a 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. Mayfield completed 22 of his 37 passes for 249 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions while tacking on 35 rushing yards and a touchdown. Mayfield briefly left Sunday's game during the third quarter and was […]

Darrel Williams Held Without Any Carries

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams was not used in the running game for the team during their Week 6 matchup against the Houston Texans. Lead back Damien Williams saw just one carry during the loss to Houston. Veteran LeSean McCoy lead the team with eight carries for 44 yards in this one. Williams […]

Alvin Kamara Struggles Against Jaguars, Tweaks Knee

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was stifled by the Jaguars in Week 6. Saints writer Amie Just reported that Kamara had a swollen ankle before kickoff and tweaked his knee during the game. Affected by the injuries, the 24-year-old carried the ball just 11 times for 31 yards but did salvage his day […]
