Five Ways the Pittsburgh Steelers Must Improve Down Stretch

The Pittsburgh Steelers have had a successful 2024 season thus far and currently sit atop the AFC North with a 10-4 record. While the team has already clinched a playoff spot, winning their division, as well as getting the highest possible seeding for the playoffs is their top priority. Pittsburgh squares off on Saturday against […]

Eddy Pineiro Hopes To Find Production Against Cardinals

Carolina Panthers placekicker Eddy Pineiro has had an up-and-down season in Carolina but will look to finish strong, starting with a Week 16 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Pineiro ranks 20th in field goal conversion percentage and 27th in extra point percentage. However, his opportunities to keep his leg warm with in-game reps have sometimes […]

Raiders D/ST Has Easy Matchup But Still Not Worth Starting In Fantasy Football

The Las Vegas Raiders will clash with the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16. Though the Jags are missing their starting quarterback, one of their best receivers, and their top TE, it's still tough to trust the Raiders defense to do anything fantasy-wise. With star defensive end Maxx Crosby (ankle), fellow DE Malcolm Koonce (knee), and […]

Tommy Tremble Not On The Fantasy Radar In Week 16 Versus Arizona

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble will look to bounce back against the Arizona Cardinals after being limited to two catches in last Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He and rookie tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders will likely split the reps, with the tandem failing to combine for 20 total yards in each of their […]

Adam Thielen To Be Prominently Featured In Week 16

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen is expected to be quarterback Bryce Young's top option again in the Week 16 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. His fellow receiver's statuses are as follows: Xavier Legette (hip) is out, David Moore (concussion) is questionable, and Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is questionable. Thielen has produced for fantasy managers who […]

Chuba Hubbard To Be Relied On For Playoff Matchups

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard will look to churn his legs to production against a middling Arizona Cardinals front four in Week 16. Hubbard disappointed last week, to the chagrin of many managers, rushing for just 32 yards on 10 carries against the Dallas Cowboys. Carolina fell behind early and opted to initiate a […]

Bryce Young Looks To Rebound Following Disappointing Week

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young will battle a hungry Arizona Cardinals squad with everything to play for in Week 16. Young is coming off an abysmal Week 15 performance versus the Dallas Cowboys, accounting for 231 yards, one touchdown, and four turnovers against one of the league's worst pass defenses. While Arizona is no juggernaut […]

Tre Tucker Could Have Decent Day Against Poor Defense

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker hasn't made much of an impact this season, but he has a chance to have a solid day against one of the NFL's worst pass defenses. Vegas will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16, who allow a ludicrous 7.9 yards per pass attempt to opposing teams […]

Daniel Carlson A Decent Start In Deep Fantasy Football Leagues This Week

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has mostly done a solid job making field goals, and his offense will face one of the worst defenses in the league when they take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16. His accuracy on FGs under 50 yards has been impressive, though he's faltered numerous times on the […]

Jakobi Meyers Set To Face Easiest Matchup Of The Season

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) will face what is easily his softest matchup of the season in Week 16 when the Raiders face the Jacksonville Jaguars. The opposing team has a patented Swiss-cheese secondary, without much cheese and with mostly holes. They're the worst team at defending against wide receivers in the […]

Brock Bowers Set Up For Big Game

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16. They have one of the worst pass defenses in the last 25 years in terms of passing Expected Points Added per play allowed. That statistic attempts to measure how impactful each play is for the opposing offense. JAX thus allows […]

Ameer Abdullah Likely To Split Touches With Alexander Mattison In Week 16

The Las Vegas Raiders will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16 in what is an easy matchup for running backs in fantasy. Raiders running back Ameer Abdullah will probably split volume with RB Alexander Mattison (neck), and Abdullah presents the more interesting option in fantasy football, since he seems to have more pass-catching […]

Alexander Mattison May Or May Not Lead Backfield In Week 16

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (neck) is expected to play in Week 16, when his team will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. We're just a few games away from finally wrapping up the rollercoaster of misery that has been the Raiders backfield in 2024. With RB Zamir White (quad) still on injured reserve […]

Titans D/ST Could Capitalize On Struggling Colts Offense

The Tennessee Titans defense/special teams unit was unsurprisingly torched in their Week 15 matchup against the Bengals, allowing 31 points to the Cincinnati offense in a loss. However, they were able to force three turnovers, keeping them in the positive for fantasy points. On Sunday, they travel to Indianapolis to face a Colts offense averaging […]

Calvin Ridley Might See More Opportunities In Week 16, But Stay Cautious

Calvin Ridley remains the No. 1 option at wide receiver in the Tennessee Titans offense, but that doesn't seem to be enough to warrant much fantasy upside. Last week against the Bengals, Ridley was only able to manage three receptions for 41 yards, being outpaced by Tyjae Spears at running back and Chig Okonkwo at […]

Chig Okonkwo Becoming A Serviceable Option At Tight End

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo enters Week 16 coming off one of his best performances of the season and will look to continue his solid production against the Indianapolis Colts. Okonkwo had the second-most receiving yards for his team last game (57) and led Tennessee with eight catches and 10 targets -- good enough […]

Tyjae Spears Looks To Stay Hot Against The Colts

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears could be suited for another productive game as a matchup against the Indianapolis Colts approaches. Titans lead back Tony Pollard's (ankle) status is currently up in the air for Sunday as he is listed as questionable with an ankle injury, leaving the door open for Spears to potentially step […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine A Risky Play After Back-To-Back Duds

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (ankle) was removed from the final injury report Friday after missing practice the previous two days. It was a second bust performance in two weeks for Westbrook-Ikhine against the Bengals, tallying just nine yards on two catches in a Titans loss. Westbrook-Ikhine has given fantasy managers whiplash, going from […]

Tyler Boyd Off Injury Report, Should Not Be In Fantasy Lineups

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd (foot) does not carry an injury designation going into his Week 16 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. While unable to practice on Wednesday and Thursday, Boyd was a full participant on Friday and appears ready to play this weekend. Despite being healthy, the wideout was only on the field […]

Mason Rudolph Looks To Continue Fantasy Success In Return To Starting Role

Tennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph will start for the first time in seven weeks against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Rudolph put on an impressive fantasy performance against the Bengals last week, emerging from his backup role midway through the third quarter to throw for two touchdowns and finish as QB12 in Week 15. He […]

Giants Defense Facing Rookie QB In Week 16

The New York Giants defense heads into Week 16 with a prime opportunity to capitalize on a favorable matchup against the Atlanta Falcons and rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who will be making his first NFL start. The Giants' pass defense ranks 7th in the league, allowing just 200.4 yards per game and boasting 38 […]

Graham Gano May See More Opportunities In Week 16

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano looks to get going in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons after a quiet showing in Week 15, where he had no field goal attempts but made both PATs in a 35-14 loss to the Ravens. On the season, Gano has converted 6 of 8 field goals (75%) with […]
