Jonnu Smith Continues To Slump
New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith hasn't been able to do much of anything through the first eight weeks of the season.

Hunter Henry Snaps Touchdown Streak
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry came into a Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers with a four-game touchdown streak. Sadly, Henry was unable to keep that streak alive against the Chargers on Sunday. He caught one of his three targets for 33 yards in the win. It wasn't a very successful […]

Jakobi Meyers Posts Another Sluggish Game
New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers appeared to be the most reliable receiver for this offense, but has been quiet over the last few games. In Week 8, Meyers hauled in four of nine targets for 37 yards in the win over the Los Angeles Chargers. To be fair, it wasn't a very successful […]

Mike Hoffman Scores Another Goal In Sunday's Loss
Montreal Canadiens winger Mike Hoffman produced a power-play goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss at Anaheim, making it four goals in five games for himself.

Zane Gonzalez Makes Four Field Goals
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez made all four of his field-goal attempts along with one extra-point attempt in Sunday's win over Atlanta. Gonzalez is now 13-for-15 in field goals along with 13-for-14 in extra points on the season. The kicker is worth streaming in favorable matchups but shouldn't be considered a strong weekly starter given […]

Brandon Bolden Makes Minimal Impact In Week 8
New England Patriots running back Brandon Bolden hauled in six receptions last week, but was unable to have the same success in Week 8. Bolden rushed four times for 26 yards during the win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Those four attempts on the ground were actually a season-high for Bolden. Sadly, he […]

Ian Thomas Musters 10 Yards
Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas managed one reception for 10 yards on one target in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

Robby Anderson Puts Up A Dud
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson managed no yards on a single target in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

Saints Defense Puts Forth Strong Effort In Victory

Ryan Getzlaf Breaks Anaheim's Scoring Record

Carolina Panthers running back Ameer Abdullah finished with eight carries for 31 yards and three receptions for 35 yards on five targets in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

The 33-year-old fired a 57-yard touchdown strike to his favorite target wide receiver A.J. Brown in the second quarter. He also […]

Tyron Smith Questionable To Return Against Vikings
Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) is questionable to return for the remainder of the Sunday night game against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8. The 30-year-old came into the game as questionable with an injury to the same ankle, so it's likely that he aggravated it. Don't be surprised if he doesn't return […]

Christian Fischer Scores Only Coyotes Goal In Sunday's Loss
Arizona Coyotes forward Christian Fischer produced the team's lone goal in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Carolina, opening the scoring 5:44 into the game before the Hurricanes fought back.

Deonte Harris Leads Team In Targets Sunday
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris led the team in targets in a victory over Tampa Bay. Harris was a large part of the game plan with Jameis Winston (knee) sidelined- as the coaches were forced to get more creative.
