Chez Reavie Needs To Putt To See The Weekend

Chez Reavie just cannot make enough putts. He ranks 193rd on tour with -0.563 strokes gained. The other problem is Reavie ranks 200th driving a golf ball an average of 281 yards. Even at the John Deere, that can be a bit of an issue at times. He missed seven straight cuts at one point […]

Colts Have Big Plans For Parris Campbell

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell, a second-round pick out of Ohio State in 2019, has five injuries, 24 catches and nine games played out of a possible 32 in his first two years in the league. However, the Colts remain confident that Campbell can deliver, and head coach Frank Reich has big plans for […]

Kyle Stanley Should See The Weekend At John Deere Classic

Kyle Stanley has one major weakness, and that is his putting. Other than not being able to drive the ball 300 yards, Stanley's biggest problem is how he fares on the greens. He ranks 197th in strokes gained in putting at minus-0.633. His around-the-green ability is about average, but again, he has to drop putts […]

Kevin Streelman Should Fare Better At John Deere Classic

Kevin Streelman just had one of those tournaments where little went right. Well, the putts just did not drop as Streelman missed the cut at the Travelers after a five tournament run where he finished 26th or better. That included a t-8th at the PGA Championship and t-15th at the US Open. Streelman is capable […]

N'Keal Harry Formally Requests A Trade

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry's agent, Jamal Tooson, issued a formal statement on Tuesday to request a trade.

Tyrod Taylor Ready To Contribute In Houston

Houston Texans quarterback Tyrod Taylor is ready to contribute in his first season in Houston after spending the last two seasons backing up Philip Rivers and Justin Herbert in Los Angeles.

Steve Stricker Not Likely To Be A Factor At John Deere Classic

It is great that Steve Stricker is playing at the John Deere this weekend, but that may be where the feel-good story ends. When one barely hits the ball 283 yards off the tee, that can be a problem. The course is only 7,257 yards in distance, but still just long enough. Stricker's approach to […]

Chargers Offense To Run Through Justin Herbert

The Los Angeles Chargers plan to run their offense this year through second-year quarterback Justin Herbert, which isn't much of a surprise after he won Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2020.

Jhonattan Vegas Could Have DFS Upside At John Deere Classic

Jhonattan Vegas might possess some potential DFS-wise this week at the John Deere Classic.

Aaron Wise Must Putt Well To Bounce Back At John Deere Classic

When Aaron Wise even putts pretty good, he can contend. See The Memorial where he wound up tied for ninth. At the PGA, he got on a roll that Sunday, shot a 68, and wound up in the top-20. Then, there was the Travelers where nothing would drop. He made the cut after a 65 […]

Vincent Whaley Not Worth The Risk At John Deere Classic

Vincent Whaley did make it to the weekend at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last week by a whisker, but then he shot a 73 on Sunday in relatively benign conditions. This was after a run of six straight tournaments where he finished in the top 35 or better. Then Whaley followed that up with two […]

Harold Varner III One To Stay Away From At John Deere Classic

Harold Varner III did not see Saturday at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last week at one of the easier tournaments of the summer. That does not bode well for the John Deere Classic. Even if Varner III gets to the weekend, he has not finished in the top-30 since the RBC Heritage Classic in April […]

Daniel Berger Is The Class Of The Field In The Quad Cities

Daniel Berger is the highest-priced golfer on the DFS slate at the John Deere Classic, and for good reason. The four-time PGA Tour winner is the only player in the field this week inside the top 25 in the official world golf rankings, and he ranks inside the top 10 in this field in a […]

Scott Stallings Worth A Look This Week At John Deere Classic

Scott Stallings is a risky DFS pick this week at the John Deere Classic. It is the week before "The Open" and strange things often happen. Low scores are very common and driving accuracy is not necessarily needed on the course. The problem with Stallings is he cannot hit very far either (less than 298 […]

Mets Don't Want To Part With Top Prospects

The New York Mets are seeking upgrades at third base and in the starting rotation before the July 30 trade deadline, but they are reluctant to move the few high-end prospects that they have.

Daz Cameron Could Miss Rest Of Rangers Series

Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that outfielder Daz Cameron (toe) is day-to-day after he was scratched from Monday's lineup with a right big toe sprain.

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Cubs on Monday. Bohm also drove in a run with a bases-loaded walk. The sophomore has been heating up lately as his results are finally matching the quality of contact Bohm is making. He's got a 50 […]
