Cooper Kupp Is Boom Or Bust

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp finished with his rookie campaign with 869 yards and five touchdowns. It was a solid year for the rookie, but he might not see much work against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. Kupp is the third option behind running back Todd Gurley and receiver Robert Woods. He will see some […]

Robert Woods is Rams Best Receiving Option

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has become the No.1 WR on the Rams roster. He didn't score a touchdown until Week 9 but finished the season with 781 yards and five touchdowns. He was nearly unstoppable until a shoulder injury cost him three weeks of action. He's been given plenty of rest and […]

Todd Gurley Should Destroy Falcons

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley should be in for a solid performance against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. Gurley was able to win some fantasy owners championships and might even be able to win himself an MVP award. He finished the season with 1,305 rushing yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. He scored 19 […]

Jared Goff is Reliable Option Against Falcons

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has put together an absolutely incredible campaign. He finished with 3,804 passing yards and 28 passing touchdowns with just seven interceptions. He sat out in Week 17 but dropped 301 yards and four touchdowns on the Titans in Week 16. He's still learning and is going to make mistakes, […]

Travis Kelce is Trustworthy TE Option

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is most notably one of the best TEs in all of football. Kelce finished the season with 83 receptions, 1,038 yards and eight touchdowns. He's caught four or more passes in every game he's played in besides two this season. Kelce has become the go-to guy for quarterback […]

Tyreek Hill Should Be Reliable

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill went from boom or bust to one of the most trustworthy WRs in fantasy. In his last six contests, Hill caught at least four receptions for 40 yards or more. He caught three touchdowns during that span and had two games with 100 yards or more. Hill will […]

Kareem Hunt is RB1 Against Titans

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt capped off his rookie campaign with the NFL rushing title. He rushed for 35 yards in Week 17 and finished with 1,327 yards and eight rushing touchdowns on the season. He heads into Saturday with five touchdowns in his last four games. The Chiefs will likely lean on […]

Alex Smith is A Safe Option

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith heads into a playoff game against the Tennessee Titans on Saturday. Smith finished the season with an impressive 26:5 touchdown-to-interception ratio on the season. He didn't throw an interception until Week 9 and is one of the main reasons the Chiefs are in the playoffs. He's a safe option […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee (ankle) and running back T.J. Yeldon (illness) are questionable for the Wild-Card matchup with the Bills this weekend.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Devin Funchess (shoulder) is listed as questionable for the Wild-Card game against the Saints this weekend.
