Nick Mullens (QB, SF) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Tw0-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers quarterback Nick Mullens is still pretty green, as we saw in Week 10 against the Giants, but just about anyone is worthy of consideration against Tampa Bay’s defense. They have allowed at least 20 points in all games except one and […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Six Touchdowns in Loss

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes unfortunately suffered the loss in the Week 11 shootout with the Los Angeles Rams. Mahomes finished 33-for-46 with 478 passing yards and six touchdowns with three interceptions. Mahomes threw for almost 500 yards, but also turned the ball over five times in this one. Regardless, it was an impressive […]

Eli Manning (QB, NYG) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14 Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While he didn’t erupt against a bad defense, New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning did everything required of him to pull out the win over Tampa Bay in Week 11. He had only one incompletion and nearly posted a perfect passer rating. That […]

Jared Goff Is Elite In Week 11

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff was a great play heading into Week 11, and he answered the call with his best game of the season. Goff finished with 413 yards, four passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown. He spread the ball around to a ton of receivers, and he was able to make up […]

Eli Manning Has Shot To Stay Hot In Week 12

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is on a mini-hot streak heading into the team's Week 12 matchup against the Eagles. Manning has five touchdown passes over his last two games with zero interceptions and a QB rating of 133.2. He will go up against an Eagles defense that Manning failed to throw a touchdown […]

Tom Brady Hopes To Snap Slump In Week 12

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will try and shake out of his month-long fantasy slump against the Jets in Week 12. Brady is having a strong season but his fantasy production has fallen off drastically, posting only one multiple touchdown performance over his last five games played. Brady has only one touchdown pass over […]

Cam Newton Limited On Ground Against Lions

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was limited on the ground against the Detroit Lions which is unusual. This season Newton has returned fantasy value in a large part to the work he is able to do with his feet- but was limited to just two yards against the Lions. Newton was, however, able to throw […]

Taysom Hill Continues To Show Off His Athleticism

New Orleans Saint quarterback Taysom Hill continues to display his excellent athleticism and play-making abilities even with very limited snaps. Hill continues to be utilized by coach Sean Payton to keep defenses guessing- the absolute domination of the Saints offense this season has shown that it has worked. Hill made two passing attempts, completing one […]

Jameis Winston Replaces Ryan Fitzpatrick Again

The Buccaneers quarterback carousel continues as Jameis Winston replaced Ryan Fitzpatrick mid-game against the Giants. Fitzpatrick threw three interceptions in the first half and was benched for Winston who proceeded to throw two touchdowns and fumble the ball for a touchdown into the end-zone. Although Winston brought his team close to victory, there has been […]

Andy Dalton Throws Two Touchdowns Against Ravens

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton threw for 211 yards on 19-for-36 passing in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. He threw a pair of touchdowns and added 29 rushing yards on two carries. It was a consistent game for Dalton, but wasn't quite enough to get the Bengals the victory. Still, Dalton ranks as the QB15 […]

Kirk Cousins Mediocre In Week 11 Loss

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins saved his Week 11 performance with two fourth-quarter touchdowns. He was 30-for-46 with 262 yards and two interceptions. It was a putrid performance through three quarters from the 30-year-old as the Bears defense harassed him throughout the night. Cousins has now delivered back-to-back mediocre performances against NFC North opponents. He […]

Marcus Mariota's Status Questionable Following Week 11 Loss

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was 10-for-13 for 85 yards and an interception in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Mariota exited the game before half time due to an apparent blow to his previously injured elbow. Mariota was seen flexing and grasping at his hand following the hit, which should definitely be of […]

Week 11 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchup Analysis

¿Què pasa? Este juego ya no va estar en la ciudad de México -- porque la NFL tiene un complejo de superioridad -- pero pensé que una introducción en español sería divertido así que aquí estamos. Realmente no resultó ser tan divertido. Con suerte, puedes leer esto. Disappointed this game won't be coming to us from […]

Mitch Trubisky Mediocre In Victory

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky completed 20 of 31 passes for 165 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the Bears 25-20 win over the Vikings. Trubisky's best moments came from his legs, scrambling for some big first downs and gaining 43 rushing yards in the game. In a game built around defense Trubisky made […]

Carson Wentz Faceplants Against New Orleans

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz completed only 19 of 33 passes for 156 yards and three interceptions in Week 11’s blowout loss to the New Orleans Saints. It was a nightmare outing for Wentz and the entire Eagles squad as they were steamrolled by the red-hot Saints. The completions and yardage totals were Wentz’s lowest […]

Blake Bortles Struggles Against Steelers

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles threw for just 104 yards on 10-for-18 passing in Sunday's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He also lost a fumble. It was a hugely disappointing day for Bortles and the Jaguars, who spoiled a good defensive effort that held Pittsburgh's run game in check and picked off Ben Roethlisberger three […]

Deshaun Watson Throws Two Interceptions In Week 11

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for 208 yards on 16-for-24 passing in Sunday's victory over the Washington Redskins. Watson threw one touchdown to wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and had a pair of interceptions. It was a disappointing outcome for Watson's fantasy owners, as the second-year passer didn't break 10 fantasy points. Watson is turning […]

Dak Prescott Posts A Lackluster Performance Against Falcons

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott lead his team to a crucial victory on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons but most likely disappointed fantasy owners who were hoping for him to continue his hot streak from recent weeks. Prescott barely snuck over 200 yards through the air, and only found the end zone once on the […]

Ben Roethlisberger Throws Two TDs Against Jags

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger shook off a slow start to lead his team to a comeback win against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11. Roethlisberger completed 27 of his 47 passes for 314 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions. The Steelers got off to a slow start in the game, passing for just 53 […]

Derek Carr Does Just Enough, Leads Game Winning Drive

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr didn't have the best stat line but was able to lead a game-winning drive against the Cardinals on Sunday. Carr finished with just 192 yards and two touchdowns but was able to prevent turnovers against a tough Cardinals pass defense. Carr has been the definition of inconsistent this season and […]

Colt McCoy Throws Touchdown In Relief Effort

Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy got called into action Sunday when starter Alex Smith was carted off the field with a horrific leg injury. McCoy completed six passes for 54 yards and a touchdown, adding 35 rushing yards in the 23-21 loss. The real fantasy impact here lies not in McCoy's performance, but in the […]

Drew Brees Torches Eagles

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 22 of 30 passes for 363 yards and four touchdowns in the Saints 48-7 blowout win over the Eagles. It was another dominant performance for Brees, who is having an MVP-caliber season. He completed passes to eight different receivers and tore through the Eagles secondary for several huge […]

Case Keenum Invisibly Visible in Broncos Win

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum completed 19 of 32 passes for 205 yards in the Broncos 23-22 win over the Chargers Sunday. Keenum led the Broncos on a game-winning, 76-yard drive -- which ended with a 34-yard Brandon McManus field goal -- but was largely ineffective for the rest of the afternoon having amassed just […]

Josh Rosen Is Mediocre In Week 11 Loss

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen had a mediocre day from a fantasy perspective in the team's loss to the Raiders. Rosen only completed nine out of 20 passes on the day for 136 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions. It seems as if Rosen still has a lot of work to do to become a […]

Lamar Jackson Produces 267 Total Yards

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 13 of 19 passes for 150 yards along with an interception in a 24-21 Week 11 win over the Bengals. The rookie, making his first career start, added 117 rushing yards on 27 carries. He totaled 46 yards, with runs of 12 and 21 yards, on the ground on […]

Andrew Luck Puts Up Three Touchdowns, Keeps Streak Alive

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck completed 23 of his 29 pass attempts for 297 yards and three touchdowns in a 38-10 blowout victory over the Tennessee Titans. Luck now has seven straight games with three touchdowns, a streak behind only Peyton Manning (2004) and Tom Brady (2007). The Colts were smooth operators against the Titans […]

Matthew Stafford Leads Detroit To Victory Over Panthers

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford finished 23 of 37 for 220 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Carolina Panthers. It was an impressive day for the Lions offense, considering that Marvin Jones (knee) was inactive. As expected, Stafford looked at Kenny Golladay heavily on Sunday and it climaxed when the two […]

Matt Ryan Has Unspectacular Day Sunday

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan salvaged his day with a late touchdown as he struggled to register 15 fantasy points against the Dallas Cowboys Sunday. It needed a late drive from Ryan, culminating in a touchdown to Julio Jones, for him to make his points total look even remotely satisfactory. Ryan completed 24-of-34 passes for […]

Eli Manning On Point In Win

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning completed 17 of 18 passes for 231 yards and two touchdowns as the Giants took care of the Buccaneers 38-35. Manning now has five touchdown passes over his last two games and pretty much had his way with a weak Tampa defense. He had two huge conversions for 41 […]

Alex Smith Exits With Serious Leg Injury

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith exited Sunday's meeting with the Texans with what appears to be a broken leg. Smith's season is very likely over, leaving Colt McCoy as the new Redskins quarterback. McCoy threw a touchdown to Jordan Reed soon after entering the game.
