Tom Brady Throws For 297 Yards, Two Scores In Thursday's Win

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 34 of 42 passes for 297 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in Thursday's win over the Eagles. Seemingly unbothered by his thumb injury, Brady led two touchdown drives in the opening quarter, completing 11 of his first 12 passes. While the offense stalled a bit after […]

Shohei Ohtani - 2021 Year-in-Review

Baseball fans had the pleasure of watching Shohei Ohtani play a full season, doing things we've never seen done on the baseball field all year long. It was an incredible year, to say the least, for the probable American League MVP. This is essentially a double-article since Ohtani functioned as two completely different players (for […]

Steelers Defense A Top-Five Option In Week 6

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense caught a break ahead of their Week 6 game against the Seattle Seahawks. Instead of facing star quarterback Russell Wilson (finger), the Steelers will instead go up against veteran Geno Smith at home. Wilson injured his finger in Week 5 and Smith came on to replace him in the contest, throwing […]

Chris Boswell - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell has been mostly accurate in 2021, making eight of nine field goals and all 10 of his extra points through five games. He will look to keep it going when he takes on the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 6. The Seahawks are allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per […]

Pat Freiermuth - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth is coming off of a slow performance in Week 5 which saw him catch just two passes for seven yards. Freiermuth will look for better results in a neutral matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. Seattle has been average against opposing tight ends this year as they […]

Josh Jacobs Misses Thursday's Practice With An Illness

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (illness) didn't practice Thursday due to an illness. The 23-year-old kept popping up on the injury report and missed two games earlier in the season with an ankle injury. It's unknown at this time if the illness is related to COVID-19, but it's a situation fantasy managers should […]

James Washington Limited On Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington (groin) turned in a second straight limited practice on Thursday. If he's able to play in Week 6, Washington will be counted upon to help replace JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) who suffered a season-ending injury in Week 5. Washington draws a plus matchup in Week 6 against a Seattle Seahawks […]

Darren Waller Returns To Practice Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. The 29-year-old missed Wednesday's practice with a knee issue. He's the Raiders' top pass-catching option, hauling in 28-of-48 targets for 319 yards and two touchdowns over five games in 2021. Waller averages 10 air yards per target and owns 26% […]

Diontae Johnson - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson had an uncharacteristic game in a Week 5 win over the Denver Broncos. The receiver is usually the target leader on the Pittsburgh offense but he finished with just two targets in the Week 5 win, his first game below 10 targets in 2021. With JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) out […]

Chase Claypool Limited On Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool (hamstring) turned in a second straight limited practice on Thursday. Claypool originally missed Week 4 with a similar injury but was able to return to the field and post 130 yards and a touchdown against the Denver Broncos in Week 5. Fantasy gamers rostering Claypool are certainly hoping that […]

Najee Harris - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris continues to dominate the backfield work for his team as the rookie has played on just over 86% of his team's offensive snaps thus far. Harris did miss some time in the fourth quarter last week due to cramping but he has not been listed on the injury list […]

Ben Roethlisberger Expected To Play Against Seahawks

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral, hip) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he missed Wednesday's session. With that, the veteran signal-caller is expected to be under center when the Steelers take on the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 6. Seattle represents a plus matchup for Pittsburgh's passing offense as they […]

Jason Myers - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers was a top-10 kicker a season ago, but he's struggling to maintain a position inside the top 30 heading into Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Myers hasn't had more than four kicking opportunities in a game since Week 2, and he's missed at least one attempt in three out […]

Tyler Lockett - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett bounced back a bit in Week 5, but you should temper expectations for him in Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and moving forward. Lockett will be playing with quarterback Geno Smith this week after playing his entire career with quarterback Russell Wilson (finger), who went on Injured Reserve. Lockett […]

Geno Smith - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is preparing for his start since 2017, and he has to do it in Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Smith played well in relief in Week 5, going 10-for-17 for 131 yards with a touchdown and one interception, although the pick wasn't necessarily his fault as his receiver fell […]

Matt Gay - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay has had a couple of misses over the last two weeks, but he's a strong kicker play in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Gay has had at least five kicking opportunities in all five games this season, including at least two field-goal attempts in all five games. […]

Tyler Higbee - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has been rather quiet over the last few weeks, but he has a great bounce-back matchup in Week 6 against the New York Giants. He is far and away the leading tight end for his team, as he's seen all but one of the team's tight end targets […]

Robert Woods - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods was rather quiet for the first month of the season, but he changed that in Week 5 and can keep it all going in Week 6 against the New York Giants. There is an old saying that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and that was 100 percent […]

Cooper Kupp - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp didn't have his best game of the season in Week 5, but he can put up another strong performance in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Kupp is first among wideouts in PPR scoring formats with a healthy 23.8 point-per-game average, and he still holds a healthy […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. missed a game in Week 3, but he's still the RB16 in full PPR leagues and remains a good play for Week 6 against the New York Giants. In the four games he has started, Henderson has played at least 66 percent of the offensive snaps in […]

Matthew Stafford - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is the QB8 after five weeks, and he's primed for another great game in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Through five games, Stafford is averaging 317.4 yards per game through the air and has a solid 12 touchdowns compared to three interceptions. The Giants are allowing the […]
