Chris Ivory Destroys Washington as the Jets Fly to Victory

The Washington Redskins have a reputation for having a good run defense, but it appears that Chris Ivory didn't get the memo.

Alfred Morris Set for Big Workload with Matt Jones Inactive.

The Washington Redskins backfield has been tough to figure out this year, but things should be a little easier in Week 6. Matt Jones has been officially declared inactive against the New York Jets. The Redskins will have a tough time moving the ball in either phase of the game against a tough Jets defense, […]

LeSean McCoy Set for Limited Role in Week 6

The good news for fantasy football managers is that LeSean McCoy is set to suit up for the Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately, he's not a RB1 play, because he is not expected to take on a full workload in his first game back from battling the injury. The Cincinnati Bengals have been vulnerable to the run, […]

Peyton Manning Takes on Father Time and Mother Nature in Week 6

It's been a rough start to the season for Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning. Through five weeks he has averaged 246.8 passing yards per game, has just one 300-yard passing game and has thrown just six touchdowns to go with his seven interceptions. Father time is undefeated, and he looks to be taking down Manning […]

Andrew Luck Back Against the Patriots on Sunday Night

After missing the last two games, Andrew Luck is expected to return tonight against the Patriots according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The Colts and Matt Hasselbeck were able to win both games against the Texans and Jaguars, but Luck back in the lineup is definitely good news for all of the Colts fantasy options. […]

Donte Moncrief to Get Back On Track

After hauling in just one catch for three yards last week against the Houston Texans, expect Donte Moncrief to get back to his breakout year for the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6. Andre Johnson stole the show last week, but Andrew Luck is expected to start this week. Luck’s chemistry with Moncrief is evident, as […]

T.J. Yeldon Inactive for the Jaguars Today

T.J. Yeldon, who was limited in practice throughout the week with a groin injury, will be inactive today against the Texans according to Mark Long. In his place will be Denard Robinson, who rushed for 582 yards and four touchdowns last season. Robinson is a solid start this week, but he does face a Texans […]

Lamar Miller Still Looking for Breakout Game

With 37 rush attempts for an abysmal 131 rushing yards in four games, Lamar Miller is still seeking his first touchdown of the season as well as a rushing performance of more than 55 yards in a game.

Sammy Watkins In, E.J. Manuel Making Bid for Starting Job

According to Adam Schefter, Sammy Watkins will return to the lineup for the Buffalo Bills after missing the last two weeks with a calf injury.

Mike Wallace Roller Coaster Continues

Coming off a bye week, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Mike Wallace looks to scorch a Kansas City Chiefs defense that’s giving up the most receiving yards and touchdowns in the NFL.

Justin Forsett Expected to Play Against the 49ers

According to Adam Schefter, Justin Forsett is expected to suit up today against the San Francisco 49ers today in a matchup of two 1-4 teams. With Forsett in the lineup, Javorius Allen is no longer a legitimate option for teams looking for an injury or bye week fill-in. Owners should also be hesitant to start […]

Julius Thomas Looks To Increase Workload

While it wasn’t the most inspiring start last week, Julius Thomas did return for the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, catching both of his targets for 20 yards. The 6’5” tight end should be much more effective this week at home against the Houston Texans. Thomas played on 32-of-61 snaps in the loss against the Tampa […]

Chris Johnson To Remain Starter

When The Arizona Cardinals go on the road this week to play the Pittsburgh Steelers, Chris Johnson will lead the way at running back. Unfortunately, it’s not 2009. That’s not to say he hasn’t been worthy of the role, rushing for 405 yards and two touchdowns thus far with a cool 5.1 yards per carry. […]

We Haven't Seen the Last of Thomas Rawls

While Marshawn Lynch stood on the sideline last week in Cincinnati, Thomas Rawls picked apart the first place and undefeated Bengals carrying the ball 23 times for 169 yards and one touchdown.

Lamar Miller Should Bounce Back Against Titans

The Miami Dolphins had high hopes coming into this NFL season, but a 1-3 start and the dismissal of their head coach has them wondering where to go next. The lack of use of running back Lamar Miller has been a reason for Miami's struggles this season, and the team needs to get him going […]

Ameer Abdullah To Emerge Out Of The Trio In Detroit

Following a promising 11-4 campaign in 2014, a blown lead and controversial non-call in the Wild Card game against Dallas, the Detroit Lions hoped to compete again in 2015. But after an 0-5 start, it's been one continuous nightmare in the Motor City. Injuries have not helped. Starting the season with a running back by […]

Gary Barnidge, Charles Clay - Week 6 Lineup Busts?

Gary Barnidge (TE, CLE) Suddenly the third ranked fantasy tight end in the league, Gary Barnidge looks the part of a potential beast this season. But against an elite Denver defense that has yet to surrender a touchdown to a tight end this year, it may be wise to leave Barnidge on the bench this week. […]
